I hate to endorse these options as an Ram/Jeep guy but yes pretty close though the 2019 Ram 1500 with the 48V mild hybrid system would be up there. Then you could go VVT 5.7 Hemi V8, Their EcoBoost Diesel or sending on if you plan on towing their 3.5L Pentastar V6 (In the Wrangler and a ton of...

@Ravenmad As a big Ram truck fan myself I love your build and feel your pain on having to get an engine replaced early on to “get it right”. Mine just happened to be a 5.7 Hemi and it was at 1100 miles basically my wife hit the push button start and it kept trying to start it by itself over and...

Actually Kawasaki already killed it or more accurately the new Euro emessions rules did. But you are right the huge amount available on the used market did not help them (or other OEMs). You can still find a huge number of brand new 2018 KLRs from $4500-$5500 all over the country...

Personally I blame @Tex68w if he would just go ahead and lose his firearm collection in a tragic boat sinking like I did we would all be much safer. Having all those fully semi-automatic, evil black and scary things with their high capacity magazine clips and shoulder things that go up just...

@RR876 Nice build! I would have to ask @Tex68w if he concurs but I have two words for your next mod “Hemi Conversion.” Don’t worry you can thank me later!

You can have the best recovery points in the world and if you don’t rig it right or use the correct equipment in the first place then the point will be fine and other items will fail. I have pictures somewhere of this concept involving an At,y ASV in Bosnia that troops were trying to recover...

Must be a Ford problem... ?

This part can not be understated this is why I am trading in on a PW this year instead of wiaiting for like an updated AEV Prospector

And people say kids today aren’t interested in science!

NF is one of the brands I have not really tried, but I know a lot of my guys still in the Bats or on the teams love them. I just looked and they actually won that big FFPS contract for all of SOCOM. https://www.tactical-life.com/news/ussocom-selects-nightforce-atacr/...

Crazy that it is all the way up in Kansas, but now that I think about it I remember seeing signs in Pigeon Forge, TN 10 years ago at all the local pharmacies saying that they did not stock Oxy. When I asked about them they said that all of them had been getting broken into pretty consistently...

@luk4mud I will second what @Correus said about bringing and least a sidearm and trauma kit. Depending on the wildlife in your area and also sometimes depending on if you are liable to run into 2-legged predators. Not to be all tinfoil hat but I know in some areas of the SW that is becoming...

That slider is cool reminds me of the Grumman LLV postal trucks in a way. But the ambulance with a cool door I really want to find is a M997 HMMWV ambulance. It has the stairs that flip down, we never took these on deployment but I spent tons of time in them when we were training. It was the...

That slider is pretty cool and

@tlin I have not been in the RTT game yet (but I will try anything once) but I find the tent that iKamper X-Cover is bringing out intriguing since you don’t have to deal with a cover and roof crossbars are optional. https://www.ikamper.com/pages/xcover Besides that I know Thule just bought...

If I were Ford I would focus on bring the Raptor version of the Ranger to the US which they somehow have decided to leave out with their reintroduction of model this year. Perhaps they are too busy bringing in the unibody truck that will slot below the Ranger ??‍♂️

@RF2200 Thanks I was stationed in San Antonio like 3 times and with some of my injuries cold makes life a lot harder! Now to weigh in on the “important stuff”.. Personally, I would never run a 1-8x on a 5.56/.223 platform with 20” barrels and shorter, even if I went with a free float...

I have not purchased a RTT but I have been looking at them for some time and really like the Tepui ones. Just want to see what will happen with them now that Thule has acquired the company.

Some of it is a little old but the site is a good source https://wcares.org/special-interests-3/aprs/aprs-what-are-my-options/ As far as rugged you probably know that radios are definitely a “buy once, cry once” item. For radios I know that have stood up to soldiers beating the crap out of...

@Ducky's Dad you are not my real mom! But seriously I am going to take a hard pass on that...
