Agree with all except, for black bears in North East, I've never had need for the firearm.

Yep. We drove and camped around Badlands of S. Dakota and in Colorado, we had a sleep platform in the 6.5 foot bed of the truck, with Leer topper. The food was elsewhere while we slept but it lived under the topper in the bed while we drove, so I'm sure the smell lingered. But I feel, for...

The "early warning Beagle" is real! Love my Beagle. They should have put Beagles up in Alaska during the cold war as a Distant Early Warning Beagle" system, or since the military likes their abbreviations: DEWBEE

I'm in New England and do most of my hiking and camping in western Mass or up in the NH Whites and I have rarely even seen a black bear out in the wild. We are too noisy, what with the dog and all. I see bears all the time in my backyard though. Get even a small dog, keep em on a good...

Not sure I communicated well. They got to the airport early and just sort of hung out. I don't unde5why they didn't take that opportunity to top off, is all. Just because the car didn't tell them to, is no reason not to be ready for the next leg of the trip.

My lady just rode from Boston to NYC in a Tesla. They went to pick up a friend at the airport there and drive her back here. they got there early and sat in a waiting lot for 2 hours. Didn't charge the Tesla during that time because it "didn't tell them to charge." However, on the way back...

If I'm not wrong it was started by a Jeep-driving lady from Canada who was visiting the US during COVID. Someone gave her guff for traveling during covid and she decided to spread happiness instead of dwelling on anger. She'd bought a rubber duckie in a convenience store or something and put...

No 8-speed. I do have the 6 speed. If you are beyond warranty, you may want to look into getting the dipstick and tube off a 2016 Camaro.

That file, though...much like the old 91mm Mountaineer I have. There seems to be less call for the metal file/ metal saw combo and any SAk that has one.

I'm not so sure consumers are waiting for an EV with 850 mile range. 500, or even a solid 400 would be comfortable to most people

I got a reman transmission as well. Have to ask: is it cheaper than a new car, do I want a new payment (and excise tax and higher insurance), and, how long will the rest of the vehicle last.

What? I have a 2014 that has a transmission fluid level dipstick. It is on the passenger side in this generation. Even if you don't see a dipstick grab handle, it is usually there. Look for the same tube to run up the side of the engine but with a simple, unmarked, cylindrical stopper with...

That's certainly a collection. What's the shelf life of that stuff? Just casual interest...

Also a big fan of the original Leatherman. I have one or two, still with original leather sheath. But I also really like the Lestherman PST2. I have a beater and one still in clamshell plastic packaging...the addition of the combo edge knife, diamond coated grooved file for fish hooks, and...

Along with whichever one of the Victorinox swiss army knives I listed above, I carry a Leatherman Rebar. Between the two, I have what I need. I wouldn't mind an OG Leatherman Wave. I hate bits that can drop out or get lost. I have an OG Surge that handles everything. Great scissors, great...

Huntsman. Fieldmaster. My first was a Super Tinker from the 80's. Then a Tinker Deluxe. Then a vintage Explorer. Then I went down the rabbit hole and now I have a dozen, all different.

I like the idea of pillar/hood lights, but these might loom better on the bumper. If, if you do camp a lot, one on either side of the roof rack headed sidewards

Or, the same, but effing a football. Parsed out some good, real info, though.

Maybe so, for the 3 vs Camry, but clearly almost everyone here in this thread is talking mostly trucks and SUV's...saying EV trucks are "twice as heavy" as my truck or an ICE F-150 vs Lighting, Rivian R1T, or Cybertruck and I'm only about 10% to 15% off my "blanket" statement. Still a passing...

As does that chin strap under the front bumper. I've taken mine off but the running boards have to stay, for the little lady.
