I'd love a GMT900 Suburban 2500 with a front clip/badging swap from a GMT900 Sierra 2500 HD (gets rid of the plastic front end and allows for a steel bumper/winch)

They make those high strength steel cable nets which can be secured with padlocks, that's probably what I'd do in lieu of some electronic "system".

Just want to add this note for posterity - any comments not specifically relating to the LR4 platform and it's advanced alternator management strategy are irrelevant. This is not a D1 or D2 with a basic voltage regulator.

I would say the coil sprung rear suspension, fully boxed frame, additional attention paid to NVH (as a premium SUV versus utlity truck) are much more obvious. :shakinghead:

The only time I have carried extra fuel in the Northeast was in the North Maine Woods (15 gallons).

4 foot diameter?

Is there a method to align these if the trailer frame rails are not perfectly parallel (in the case of retrofitting) or to adjust for "tweakage" (due to abuse/damage)?

I mean that Q7 is rated to tow 7700lbs so I dont understand the disparaging remarks there.

Carry a door mat, put it between the ladder and tent when you close up. When set up, use it at the base of the ladder as an entry mat.

I have the 295/75/16s on my Xterra (which likely has far less sound deadening than your LC) and they are very quiet and livable.

Thats basically what I'm looking for, but ideally something a little less Model T ;)

I wish I only wasted $80 on LED bulbs (9007s). I blew about $150 on Atomic LEDs and they were so bad I could have seen better with two candles sitting on the front bumper. Absolute garbage. I am now back to Phillips Extreme something or others which are supposed to be the best 55/60W you can...

The above is all good. Fly fishing is addictive - I started this year and love it. If you can I'd recommend giving it a try. Some things that will help - always approach from downstream. The presentation of the fly or lure in the water is crucial, it has to look as natural as possible. These...

(and logic still dictates no live traffic without a live data connection)

I take that back... I looked into it and it can be done, but is questionably practical for a backup cam application because there is a significant delay to actually launch the app and start camera feed. This would occur every time reverse was selected - think parallel parking - and would...

So you want a GPS that has real time traffic, with no real time data connection. Hmm Androids also do not support live video inputs I dont think. I think you are expecting a lot from a mobile device package. Why the urgent need for the backup camera?

Thats fine and everything, but it still has a motor so it shouldn't be on non-motorized trails.

I had one and loved it (2006 F350). The only thing that went on mine from 135k to 165k that I had it was the Fuel Injector Control Module (FICM). That left me stranded in a hotel parking lot. But it also had injector stiction issues (the 6.0s shear oil like crazy) and I was planning on tearing...

Forgot to mention I went from 255/85 KM2s to 295/75 KO2s. The KM2s are really good off road - really good. But the KO2s are about 80% as capable off road and probably 50% more livable on road.

I am hugely impressed by my KO2's. I have yet to an encounter a situation off road where I wished I had something more aggressive. This includes several rocky/muddy trails similar to above where a friend was losing traction and unable to climb wet hills with MTR kevlars. I recommend them all around.
