    Overkill Campers

    OVERKILL CAMPERS LLC Bend OR, 97702 - Company Profile (cortera.com) shows no recent public record alerts for bankruptcy or anything else. The AI stuff is fun, but in its current state should be taken with a grain of salt unless it provides actual references to the "facts" it's providing.

    Overkill Campers

    This seems...not accurate. Their website is down? No, it's not. The company name is "Overkill Campers" and not "Overkill Trailers" so there may be some bad AI logic involved in the results as well. Without seeing the actual, public bankruptcy filing or a reference to it this is just AI word...

    Overkill Campers

    I can't comment on other brands, but when we were trailer shopping one of the areas I was looking into were the businesses themselves, the top 2 on our list at the time were Bean and Off Grid Trailers. I also spoke with owners about their experiences pre- and post-sale rather than relying on...

    Would you live in a wedge camper full time?

    Me personally, no, not in a setup like that. The biggest reason has to do with wind/storms, having camped in an RTT as well as normal ground tents it's basically impossible to sleep when the tent is flapping/buzzing/shaking in the wind. Having to always plan on camping somewhere protected so...

    Overkill Campers

    Reading their IG post makes my blood boil and I don't even have any skin in the game. They need to be sued out of existence and the owners need some prison time for fraud. When we were trailer shopping a little over a year ago I came across some videos on their trailers and we really liked...

    Cube Trailer

    Ok, take your pick of another expanding hardside trailer then...and I bet it's cheaper. If it weren't for the price it wouldn't be too bad, IMO. An off-road trailer it isn't, though, but they're asking a premium price that I think they're going to have a hard time justifying. Hard to really...

    Cube Trailer

    I love how all the pics are 3D renderings and not of the actual product. That price, though...ouch. Spend less than half the price and get nearly the same layout - https://forestriverinc.com/rvs/camping-trailers/rockwood-hard-side-pop-up-campers/A214HW/7309

    Ineos Grenadier Sub Forum

    I'd like to see that, I've been following that vehicle relatively closely and am interested in seeing how things go once it launches. I'm not in the market for a new/replacement vehicle, but if I were then that would be on the short list.

    Gladiator - Good/Bad?

    ^^ Yup. The EcoDiesel in the Gladiator gets the ZF 8HP75 and the 3.6 gets the FCA/Stellantis-built 850RE which is the same design as the ZF 8HP50 only it's made by FCA and not ZF. 8HP75 = rated for up to 750 N⋅m (520lb-ft) of input torque. 850RE = rated for up to 500 N⋅m (370lb-ft) of input...

    Falken Tires

    Dunno what to tell you then, seems like you had some odd experience/issue that others haven't. I'd think if what you experienced were due to design or construction of the tire then we should be seeing a lot of people chiming in about experiencing the same thing, but I'm just spitballing since...

    Falken Tires

    Life in Canada sounds like a blessing and a curse. :) Good luck with the Toyos!

    Falken Tires

    Not sure if you checked online or only spoke with your local tire shops, but other than getting a great deal on tires from Costco for my wife's Jeep recently I've been ordering tires online with free shipping and having my local shop install them. Simple Tire and Amazon (Who often times uses...

    Falken Tires

    Out of curiosity, what size are you looking for/having trouble getting?

    Falken Tires

    The amount of space between tread blocks. Larger voids = more aggressive = more weight on each tread block = more likely to experience tread block movement which will affect steering, etc. I'm not sure what size(s) you ran, but we can kind of make some assumptions based on tire weight...

    Gladiator - Good/Bad?

    Interesting that the OP is cross-shopping the 2, they're very different. I don't know the OP's vehicle history or what their intended use for the vehicle is, but I'll caution anyone that hasn't owned a Jeep Wrangler/Gladiator before to please listen to your gut in terms of how they drive and if...

    Falken Tires

    I looooved my Falken Wildpeak A/T3Ws and miss them horribly right now. I got a good deal on a used set of wheels that had some near-new Duratacs mounted, I'd heard mixed reviews of the Duratrac (some people love them, some hate them. There didn't seem to be an in-between) but thought this...

    Gladiator - Good/Bad?

    If you say so. I've owned probably a couple of dozen Chrysler/FCA vehicles over the decades and I never had broken crankshafts or frames that rusted out from underneath the truck. ;) They've actually all been solid, reliable vehicles. 4WD also engaged reliably and consistently as well. Same...

    Gladiator - Good/Bad?

    There was a concern with the clutch pressure plate with the manual trans and the fix was software of all things, this isn't a problem with the transmission itself. There was a potential issue with the 8HP75 behind the EcoDiesel that affected like 11 vehicles and was related to the parking pawl...

    Gladiator - Good/Bad?

    Scotty hates anything that's not a Toyota. Honestly, I don't get why people like him. He's a master troll and his videos should be viewed only as entertainment.

    For Sale: 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4 with ALU-CAB ALU-CABIN

    I guess I should have specified that there's no 6.75' bed with the crew cab 1500 trucks. :D
