I was set on a Mojave than decided on a Rubicon (I have had 4 rubicon wranglers all fairly built) because I did not want to give up the front locker and the morning I went to sign the papers I screwed up and test drove a Power wagon while I was killing some time. There is no comparison between...

I drink therefore I am.

I can also tell you 2 guys can lift and install the RSI (my buddy bought one used and we loaded it ourselves with a 3rd personguiding it on) but without an overhead crane it took 5 of us all pretty strong to get the gfc installed. the frame is pretty awesome tho. I never ran without the side...

2020. gfc made an ultra light roof top tent that might have weighed 135lbs but even their v2 topper is much heavier than the rsi. I have been to the gfc factory several times. great guys. everyone I dealt with told me they liked the V1 frame better. It did have some hinge issues but they were...

the rhodium white is a new color for 2023 I guess. no paint pen for it yet that I can find. I really like the HUD but wish the info center was touch screen. I can't wait to get a few miles on it and fill it with premium. I am already scoping out new tires...

I have to say I am liking driving it. I have been playing chauffeur to my wife while she is healing up and fun car to drive. One thing I have found is there is not aftermarket goodies compared to any of my rigs lol. I figured Mazda being a small company that seems to cater to pseudo...

they will be lighter than an ARE and way lighter than a gfc. Is your truck a long box? I have one on my ram 2500 same truck I had the gfc on. My GFC was heavier than gfc claimed mine was about 450lbs and the rsi is 268lbs.

I have had a GFC and liked it a lot but like my RSI better. I know you never asked about an RSI but might check one out.

picked it up yesterday. only put 7 miles on it as it was in the middle of a blinding snow storm. I was hoping I was going to make it home it was so bad.

one con is they take up cargo space and are pretty heavy with the cradle and all and in an suv better be secured properly if for some reason you decide to roll your rig. another con is that is a long stretch of cable to the battery if you are going to set it up on the rear hitch and not a lot of...

Wow you can’t say for the win without getting blocked lol. Regardless his goal is billy diamond which appears to be paved and maintained and the other looks like a graded gravel road both look like nice adventures for sure.

Im solo most of the ti I am solo most of the time. Common sense ******. I guess a person just needs to be honest with themselves on what they are going to do or is just the look they want?

I have never really needed a winch other than snow wheeling and then only when i have done some stupid stuff. I did the rubicon trail, dusy ershim, moab more times than i can count And never needed one. I have decided i will not get a winch on my next wrangler.

My brother has a new RAV4 and just not for me, he paid $5000 over msrp a year ago and local dealers are jacked up on prices as well. Domestic in this class just does not do it for me other than a Bronco and wife says no. Actually about an hour ago we decided we needed a turbo :). I have been...

Test drove a 2023 CRV touring hybrid and a 2023 CX5 turbo back to back. There were no Foresters to even sit in. Did sit in a Ascent and interior seemed nice but did not want to even drive it as it is not something I am interested in. CRV was nice but familiar as it definitely similar in ways...

coming from Honda nav even a paper map and compass would be an improvement. we just use carplay now.

The road/wind noise was terrible. I found a service bulletin for a fix but the dealership said our vin was just outside the range of affected vins so they would not perform the fix. Last straw was it developed a high pitch squeal that sounded like a wheel bearing. The service writer agreed it...

yes that is a concern. I have had 4 subarus and 3 needed headgaskets replaced. the 2016 we did not keep long enough barely change the oil, but I had a buddy at the time who was a service manager at a subby dealership and he said even in 2016 they were still having issues. I have not paid any...

that is no different than our crv gets/got for mpg. I mentioned the crv's were just ok but that I did not love the crv. :) one of my reservations of the Mazda is it seems like the seats are a little short but maybe it is just how used the rental is. One youtube video comparo compared the cx5...

I would want a Pilot or passport but my wife nixed either as too big. I actually tried to talk her into something bigger but no go.
