It's not really that hard. You BUY the policy. You can buy a policy for your CRAP. All of it. I can insure my shoes if I want to. Any good insurance company wants to SELL you insurance. I literally have millions in policies on all sorts of equipment, goods, stock, booze, guitars. All insured to...

I use Auto Owners. They insure my heavily modified 2001 Super Duty to full replacement. All I had to do was provide my receipts. Also insured my flatbed camper. Extra $250 per year for both.

This is the 3rd deployment error on Inreach I've heard of this year. One was a failed extraction broken ankle on the San Juan River. Other was in the Fitzpatrick in Wyoming. We had all sorts of issues the same weekend on Cataract as the San Juan incedent (friends were on that trip). Inreach is...

Same dilemma as you. I have an MPT 81 super singles. I had been saving up money to do an on-board Sanden style compressor setup on my 2001 f450. But that engine bay is getting more crowded with upgraded steering pump components etc and the $1,800 price tag scares me a little bit. So I sprung on...

Thanks for bringing this up. I totally agree and I have yet to see one of these swooped duck butt camper setups that gives any practical advantage other than street cred. Consider it the overlanding version of a snorkel. They do look sharp. The obvious solution is to just make the flat deck...

Price is what it is, it's sorta a unicorn with the 5 speed. It's a V10, which is the choice for that era. 133k for a buggie that means it's been rode fairly hard but the interior looks clean. Check the undercarriage and frame for rust. Cool truck.

958 with the PDCC and the front locker? That my friend is an absolute Unicorn. Been looking for that tell tale all silver round knob/button section for quite some time.

Idasho can you tell me more about your tie down or bolt system? I noticed you have some sort of guide pocket for camper alignment, looks similar to Bimobil setups. I really like that. Just returned from my camper extraction from Red Lodge with this unicorn and I'm looking at tie down (or bolts...

I've done some research and made some prototypes of UVC range LED purification. It is still a very young technology. Although the diodes have come substantially down in cost over the last few years, the efficiency of the diodes is crawling up ever so slowly. But we are finally starting to see...

On welders there are some amazing Chinese units that are very compact and cheap do to inverter technology advances. I just picked up it yes welder 205 tig that does AC. I'm serviceable with Mig and flux core very excited to start to learn TIG. I read somewhere that angle grinders are the...

I was just going to mention this bead face issue but it has been flagged a lot here and two other forums by multiple members so I assume it's a real thing. Stazworks has had issues (see Diplostrats post) with their fully custom setups but I've heard no complaints of their modified MRAP wheels. I...

Love this very much. Subbed.

Are you putting cocaine in your tank? My 2012 5500 flatbed got 12-13 mixed, 14 max and 12 at the worst. Always, every day for 330k miles. Loaded to the hilt or empty. I'm sure the super deep gears and hard work weren't great for MPG. I guess I just work my trucks hard.

Mine moves a bigazz 3500HD around like the Egyptians moved the great pyramid stones. It makes more noise than power. It on its 2nd engine, which at 7500 miles just dropped oil pressure. Again. Oil pump (fingers crossed I didn't blow a rod), a very very well known issue, requires dropping the...

All righty, I'll step in it right now. I know how these conversations go. If you can get 23 in that beast, I'll eat my shoe. And my shoe is GROSS. Does it give you free cable TV too? ;)

I'll say it. Taiwan aint the Taiwan of our youth. They make some mean hardwear (aaaand whiskey btw). See: your phone/computer/modern life. Heck I'd love to say "buy USA made". I could tell you lots of stories of my last 6 months trying to buy USA made stuff. Absolute nightmares. Anyhoo love to...

Guys, I know you're being casual about to but 13 to 15 is better than the new Powerstroke and Cummins are getting. Hell it's better than the 10mpg my 6.0 Vortec turd gets by a mile. All while delivering 50% more torque. Wow.

Gates of Lodore, Green River - Co/Ut last week. One of my favorite stretches of river on the planet.

I have two ebikes, his and hers. Parts avail is mostly a non issue. All components except the frame are conventional bike components. Want to upgrade your gearset or shocks? Go right ahead. Mid drive is the ONLY way to go so you can use your gears. Bafang has changed the game. Batteries are...

Forget the gears. Bigger tires should do the trick.
