    Wow that is a nice leak if real. Are those safari windows on the avatar? Any guesses what that silver panel is under the safari window?

    LC100 check engine light on, but everything seems OK?

    Being from the US I’m not familiar with the 4.2, but if everything else looks great on the vehicle I’d say it’s worth investigating further. Take it to a mechanic and find out exactly what it is on for, and how much it is to fix and try and bargain with that in mind. A 20 year old vehicle...

    Goose Gear Double Drawer Cabinet

    I am currently making some drawers and a platform for my vehicle, so I have a couple of thoughts on this. Drawers are quite hard to make yourself, they require a vast amount of tools to do the job properly, and excellent wood workmanship. Once you add up all the materials you have to purchase...

    (partially) new Tundra coming?

    Yes that sounds like it would be great! I love diesel, but it is just so expensive here in CA that I wouldn’t really want to own one. I know Toyota does reliable turbo engines overseas but there is nothing like a V8 in a truck. What if they did the 4.6l engine with an electric system that...

    Most affordable, fuel efficient 4x4 set up

    It is very possible that mechanic was wrong, or maybe was just trying to make an extra buck that day. It was just a random shop I visited while I was on a road trip and needed an oil change before the long drive home. As for turbo reliability, consumer reports published an article recently...

    Most affordable, fuel efficient 4x4 set up

    I was talking with a mechanic when I went in to get an oil change once on my 3.5L eco boost and he thought it was the 2.7. He gave me the quote and I was rather shocked why it was about $30 more than usual, as it was my oil change on the 3.5 wasn't cheap. He told me the 2.7l use a unique oil...

    Most affordable, fuel efficient 4x4 set up

    As far as engines for the f-150, I owned the 3.5L eco boost and it was a really powerful engine so once I didn’t need to tow anymore I sold the truck. So I’d rule that one out immediately. I’d also rule out the 5.0 since you want better fuel efficiency. That leaves the 2.7l or the 3.3l...

    2 inch lift on your 2nd generation Subaru Crosstrek?

    Great write up! I agree with all your impressions of the Crosstrek. The seats are a glaring issue with the car, I feel they could have done way better even in just a $25k car. For the money though the Crosstrek delivers superb performance in my opinion. I did opt for the eyesight on mine...

    2 inch lift on your 2nd generation Subaru Crosstrek?

    I own a 2018 Crosstrek and in my opinion it doesn't seem worth it to lift it. The point of the Crosstrek is to be a comfortable daily driver that gets excellent gas mileage and can still take you down a dirt track or handle snow. Lifting it does get you more clearance, but really doesn't gain...

    FS - San Diego, CA - Oztent RV1 (new lower price)

    Hi, I am selling an Oztent RV1. I slept in it for two nights and it really is an awesome tent. In my limited experience it actually lives up to the billing as a fast and durable ground tent. I am selling because work and other commitments will keep me from doing a lot of camping for a while...

    Forester vs Crosstrek

    I agree with screwball48 above. I own a Crosstrek and know many people with Foresters. Both are great cars. But the Forester has a larger cargo area and a taller roofline so you also have much more vertical room for taller items. However, I will say my Crosstrek has more than enough room for...
