    Suburban 2500 2WD vs 4WD

    OK, so I have been on the hunt for a Sub 2500 4WD. I have come across a '99 2WD with only 53,000 miles on it for only $4500! My initial reaction was to take a pass on it, but realistically for most of my needs do I really need 4WD? Most of my use will be for state park camping, launching the...

    Looking for a Suburban build thread

    I have seen pictures of a members Suburban here on ExPo and I can't find the pictures or a build thread. The part that I remember most is a picture of the rear barn-doors with equipment mounted to diamond plate panels on the doors. I remember the truck being dark red or maroon. Anyone have a...

    IFS vs SFA 'burban

    So, I'm pretty sure that I've narrowed down my selection of a new truck to a Suburban 2500 with either a 5.7 gas or a 6.5 diesel. Currently I am thinking a 1999 Suburban 2500 with the 6.5 diesel would be my top choice. One thing I am still pondering though is if it is really worth while to...

    First gen Tundra buyers guide

    In my search for a new vehicle, I was referred to this excellent guide for considering a 4Runner. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/82033-3rd-gen-4runner-buyers-guide.html Is there any similar collection of knowledge for first gen Tundra? Thanks! Dave

    Time to retire the F150

    My F150 needs brakes, power steering rack & pump, trans work, IWE's replaced and a myriad of other work. I've always had a love-hate relationship with this truck and it's time to let it go.

    Mounting options for cargo basket on camper shell

    I am looking to install a cargo basket on my camper shell. Currently there is no mounting system at all up there, and no gutters for any kind of standard mount. Is there any reason to go with towers and crossbars, then mount the basket to the cross bars, or is it best to just use the style tower...

    Anchoring camper shell with roof rack

    How are people anchoring a camper shell to the truck bed when there is also a loaded roof rack on top? Are you comfortable with just the four or six aluminum bolt/clamps? That seems like a lot of load on those points.

    RTT for us....larger people

    I am currently in the process of planning my camping truck since my 4 year old has been asking about going camping all winter, and my wife and I would like to get back into the adventure. So far we have been planning to build a platform bed in the back of the F150 covered by a ARE MX cap. This...
