I thought those diesel 1500’s had pretty poor payload ratings. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Ranger is better in that regard.

It looks like that is an interference fit engine and damage will occur if everything isn’t timed and in sync. I think you would have noticed a valve hitting a piston after 4 revolutions of the crank.

I think you would have noticed a valve hitting a piston when you turned it over by hand four times. What engine is this? What year?

It’s possible to have all alignment marks correct and still be timed wrong because the cam(s) spins half as fast as the crankshaft. The cam(s) spins once for every two times the crank spins. So if you made a revolution with any one gear and put it back together with the timing mark lined up it...

I don’t have any experience with Mitsubishi but, Is it an interference fit engine? If it is and the timing is too far off you could bend valves. Whenever I do a timing belt I turn the engine over by hand after to make sure the pistons aren’t hitting valves. I’ve messed it up before, felt it lock...

The unusual shape reminds me of this other trailer aimed at aerodynamics. https://www.canamrv.ca/rv-brands/safari-condo-alto/2476/a21-series/travel-trailer/10056/

This is one of the more unique builds i've seen.

I don’t know which frame they get in the US but they sure never got a diesel.

4500lbs payload, that crazy. That’s almost twice a crew cab 2500.

The Victron is a popular battery monitor, but there are cheaper options. Amazon.com: Victron BMV-712 Battery Monitor with Battery Temperature Sensor: Automotive 500A Battery Monitor | Renogy Solar

Build and price?

It’s the way they’d force me from from a 6.5’ box scab to a screw (+5000) that adds most of the cost. I didn’t price the 8’box scab.

Im also considering both a f150 3.5 and f250 7.3. Surprisingly I can spec them both out the way I want them (xl super cab with some options) and they’re within $1,000 of each other. That’s without the max tow and hdpp on the f150 which is another 8k. The f150 would save me $2k/year in fuel at...

The Cummins doesn’t help.

Thats decent payload for a 1/2 ton. My father in laws new 2500 cummins is 2200lbs, and my gasser chevy 2500 is 2800.

I don’t really off road but I’ve been stuck in snow enough times. I wonder how much a front locker would help.

I hate the way Ford packages options. I’d want the hdpp which requires the hd tow package also but that would force me from a scab to a screw and all of a sudden it’s a $8,000+ package, and I don’t need a crew cab. It doesn’t stop there though because all of that doesn’t include tow mirrors...

No, I think I’m gonna return it.

Do the mid rise toppers still fit through a standard 7’ garage door?

I have sumo springs on the Chevy 2500. They reduce sag a little and did not affect ride/handling.
