    You Like the Gladiator? Jeep Isn’t Done Tweaking It Yet. Meet HERCULES!

    Imagine that, a turbo in line 6. Where did they ever get that idea? I wonder if a super engineer came up with it on his own, or someone finally just put the reliability and longevity of an i6 and a turbo (think 2 plus 2 = well over small block V8 torque) together. There is a reason the vast...

    Finished Lowe's trailer

    The data sticker will tell you what the empty weight of your trailer is, subtract that from 2,000 and you have your carrying capacity. Mine is in the neighborhood of 400.

    MTN Bike set-up for Hunting

I didn't have a problem packing all my gear and my rifle on the bike. Just had a problem with the critter. I ended up walking out with the deer...

    Miyata 1000 touring bike

    Go to bikeforums.net and check the vintage section. That is still someone elses dream bike and that forum is full of folks who will appreciate it, especially the one owner aspect and the circumstances behind you parting with it. Miyata's were fine machines, the Japanese in the 80's produced...
