    I've always wanted to roll over some scales. By the time I see the scale is on at the weigh station I'm blowing by at 75 and turning around just seems like too much work.

    If you had to pick a modern day SUV for tougher travels, which one would it be?

    One of my vehicles is an F-150 with an SUV body. Several million sold in North America. Often used as a farm truck in those small towns. The other is based on a Ranger. Also extremely popular in North America. Or parts for a foreign SUV that didn't really catch on in this continent. I'll take my...

    If you had to pick a modern day SUV for tougher travels, which one would it be?

    What about a small town in the middle of nowhere on Sunday morning? Is that local auto parts store going to have the part that allows you to continue your trip? My Expedition. 9.75 rear and 8.8 front. 'Cuz you can't go car camping unless you spend a ton of $$$$ on gear. Don't all 2 speed...

    If you had to pick a modern day SUV for tougher travels, which one would it be?

    Land Rover LR4. Modern and tough. And most of the parts are stamped with FoMoCo so they are readily available and easy to work on.

    1999 ford expedition interior mods

    I added a bunch of tie downs to a piece of wood covered in carpet from an Expedition without 3rd row seating. I needed to keep it removeable so I can use my 3rd row when I need to: Then I added a cargo liner: This allows me to strap down everything. The Expedition is a solid rig for car...

    Classic SUVs?

    While what I drive isn't a classic, it is a high mileage (218,000) fairly old (2000 model year) Ford Expedition. I constantly have this conversation with myself. Yes it has high miles and if it were alive it is old enough to drive itself (it would be able to vote in the upcoming midterm...

    Expedition Squared build

    In preparation for the Great American Eclipse trip in a couple weeks, I decided to ditch the worn Big O Big Foot tires. I put 42.5k miles on them and they were on the truck when I bought it. We are going to be taking some back roads and because they were getting so worn, I wasn't confident in...

    Expedition Squared build

    It's been a little bit since I've updated. I added a lift. Just 2.5" coil spacers in the rear from Supreme Suspension and the factory torsion keys were cranked to their max. During the lift I noticed my lower rear shock bolts had seen better days: I replaced them and didn't realize the...

    Martin, Based on what I know about how you use your current rig, what about having a 2 speed transfer case is beneficial?
