Back in the day, I really enjoyed following the progress on this build. I'm happy to see the project has not been entirely abandoned. All that electrical work does not look like any fun at all to me, so I can see how your motivation might dip when faced with those tasks on the to-do list. I...

It seems like you definitely made the right call by keeping the truck after the accident. It has so much left to give. Enjoy the ride.

One of the campgrounds I've gone to several times is a little bit hilly, and has gravel roads. Last year when I was rolling out, a FWD minivan was struggling real badly to get traction, trying to pull a tent trailer up a small hill. The tongue weight lightens up the front, and makes reduced...

There has been a lot of HD truck news in the last few weeks. Much of it seems positive.

It's really easy to hit max payload when doing an "expedition" build on a midsize or half ton truck. It's actually pretty tough to stay under max payload if you travel with more than two adults per vehicle. Many people go over max payload, and don't think much of it. It's definitely...

As far as I can tell, none of them are terrible. All of them are competetive. Straight from the dealer, I think the Colorado ZR2 and Gladiator Rubicon are the most complete off road packages, but everyone knows the Tacoma has fantastic aftermarket support, and I don't think you will have...

All the reviewers are quick to point out the lack of a damped tailgate. Guess what? On a midsize truck, the tailgate ain't that heavy!

I had been keeping a very close eye on the 2015+ Canyons, because I was pretty sure I would be buying one. But, when it was finally time to pull out my wallet, I put my money towards a full size. I'm still a fan of midsize trucks though, and closely follow all the news on them.

Dang. The cheapest truck I can build with seating for 4 adults (XLT Crew), trailering package, and rear locker, would be $23 more biweekly (84 mo) than what I am paying on my 2018 Sierra Elevation. But, for a more fair comparison, I can build a 2019 GMC Canyon SLE, with a long bed, and...

It is very common for me to see vehicles at night with no lights on. Whenever I get the chance, I give them a good dose of flashing high beams. About 50% of drivers turn on their lights after a bit of flashing. Some still don't get it, even after I drive behind them flashing my high beams at...

I recently switched from a 2008 Canyon to a 2018 Sierra. The Canyon was definitely more fun to drive (and park) in the city. It just felt more nimble. It was right-sized for my needs. It towed what I needed to tow, and hauled what I needed to haul. But, when it needed replacement, pricing...

It looks like it is still torsion bar.

Honestly, these images look suspiciously near level, with far better than curb clearance under the spoiler.

I know, I know... Back on topic, here's the High Country

I bought a truck (1500) so I can have the capability to load it up with more stuff than a Subaru can haul, when I need to. A midsize would have been fine, but they were about the same price, and the 1500 was deemed more comfortable by a certain important passenger. Yes, it's true, I also...

I like it. It seems like I’m in the minority. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I like TFL well enough in general, and like watching their videos to kill time. I will admit though, I think a knock-knock on the dash of a vehicle is stupid. I never touch that part of the vehicle. Why would I want to pay an extra $1,000 to have "soft touch" materials on something I never...

Very cool. Thanks for sharing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
