    the new rig: 2018 Frontier Pro4x manual transmission

    Last week I went in and ordered my new truck (it's my first ever new vehicle purchase). Because it was a manual transmission model, and those are "unobtanium" here in Texas, the dealership had to order it from colorado. It arrived weds 7/25 and I picked it up that afternoon. It's a 2018 CC...

    2016 Silverado CC 4x4 SSV

    Golight spotlight painting: white -> black

    Quite a few of us like to run golights on our work/camping/4x4 rigs. I have noticed that used white golights are usually cheaper and more common on ebay.

    unimog spotted US287 SE of Amarillo

    I met a german man and his spanish wife yesterday as they were driving south on US287 in a tan-ish unimog (troop carrier I think). The rig had black/white euro plates (germany IIRC). On the side of the rig was a HUGE map that showed everywhere they had travelled (europe, asia, africa and now...
