Been eyeing the boat market due to my lake house plan to get a sense of Whats going on. The larger 25-29ft bow riders are starting to get dumped on the market. Many have been on the market for a month or more already. I haven’t noticed pricing drops just yet. But inventory is climbing in the...

Ok so interest rate increase is expected soon. Realestate has stalled. A family member is a realtor in CA in a market where their office typically sells 20-30 properties a month yr around. Last month they sold 3!!! This month they are going to shocked if they can best that number. I’m currently...

Yeah that rear end is the heavy truck gear set same one you see in the heavy F150 packaging. Its still running the independent rear suspension tho. But honestly unless your towing heavy a bunch the rear suspension has been nice. I can see heavy towing would get a little old with the independent...

I will say one thing the older Toyota trucks ate pads like a 5yr old eats Halloween candy. All my other non Toyotas I easily ran in the higher mileage range before the pads needed to be done. Pretty happy with 50,000 on my Expedition rears seems many people see 35-40k max. Front’s are...

Learned this one the hard way. Had to help my cousin rebuild his front brake system n his 92 J80. He got tired of replacing the oem pads every 10,000 ish miles lived in the hills and the j80 on 18 inch rims was very hungry for brake pads. He put aftermarket pads on based on suggestions they...

Precisely why I got one. Could use a F150 but needed 8 seats. The heavy Tow Expedition is definitely different vehicle than the standard version in how Ford packages them. Cost!!!!! Is a huge factor!!!! You can buy a fully kitted F150 for less than a fairly basic Limited trim Expedition. The...

Yes they are. Though last I looked the Black Label twins on Alibaba weren’t there. But Opus / MDC twins were. This is likely because Black Label trailers aren’t built anymore. I remember when I was kid way back we had a local tire shop that changed names every 2yrs. I got older and was...

The Chinese manufacturing model goes as follows. You get a product designer in this case a creative out back trailer guy in Australia who goes to China to find someone to manufacture his trailer. He pays a crap load of $ to bank roll the production. The manufacturer in China sells the design or...

Yup $35k on their website. Only one trailer and small video. This case $10,000 to place an order for ya.😆

It comes in a plastic box with a battery and all the bits. Bluetti is a good one. I had a Sequoia and a Outback. Sold em both got a Expedition to replace them. 18-23mpg averages vs my 19-26mpg with the Outback and 11-15mpg in the Sequoia. Pretty happy with the Expedition

In 73 my parents built their house. The garage was specifically 25ft wall to door so it could fit the pickup or 18ft ski boat. Yup standard tract house garage is typically 20ish feet deep.

Couple of friends have them. The engine is solid. Mileage is pretty terrible compared to the GM/Ford options. They have issues with electrical stuff and our area nissan has pretty much died after the company leadership went to crap and nearly went chapter 11 which is sad given I have always...

Yup. They had to crank the power, lux out the interior also. Its hard to justify a military utility vehicle to the wife when the S series sedan you already have does the same job way better! I could buy one but honestly my giant lazy boy on wheels Ford Expedition Platinum does everything I...

Same! Hell we bought a used Phil & Teds stroller for $80 had it 8yrs two kids and sold it for $100. Bought a used rocker swing thing for $15 our two kids used it then my brothers three kids and he sold it for $15😆. Oh and we own multiple properties in CA. We spend $ on stuff that matters. First...

First kid? Just a Suggestion start a Kids college fund $50,000, put some $ in a kid’s account for club sports-$6000-$9000yr. Keep the Tundra and save your $. If your house is nearly paid for and large enough for 4.5 person family then go build your dream rig when the kids are hitting HS. It will...

A buddy does 30,000 ish miles a yr ditched his dodge diesel for a Tremor 250 7.3 two yrs ago. He’s added 3 ford 7.3’s to his business since loves it!!! Said the maintenance down time and cost of the diesel was a massive negative. The Tremor also doubles as his work truck and family vehicle the...

You have a Range Rover and your shy about the reliability of the big three trucks? Hey buddy 27yrs of Toyota’s here only one in the family that had them. I can tell you the GM and Fords in the family we’re considerably lower cost to own than my Toyota’s. The “reliability” thing is a whole lot of...

Summer isn’t our travel season due to solidly booked kid programs. Pre summer ie spring we did 13days in Italy. Headed to Costa Rica this winter but not super into it since some influencer types blew up the prices. Going to go see it and already feel like its the one and only trip. I’d go back...

I think the title is very funny. 1600lbs over max and wheeling (presumably that means some sort of 4x4 required terrain). Wheeling a Tacoma with 400lbs in the bed and 400lbs in the cab is an exercise in power management lol. Wheeling A tacoma thats 1600 over max is either 4x4 low to just drive...

Umm the issue here in the US is the dealer model. They batch order these at a discount sub 20k then price them at $80,000 here. 😆😆. Its the US Consumer thats the problem. Du ok heres my signature for $80,000 7yr financed loan on a 19k Chinese trailer👍. Yes your probably better off going alibaba...
