My Cummins reaches full throttle, at half throttle. I love the silly tricks companies do to fool people. It lifts for each up shift, and still bangs gears even after lifting. Sometimes I think I could almost shift a six speed faster. I can definitely shift my Mustang faster, and...

Whatever that minivan was, it wasn't a jeep. Serves the guy right, for buying a fake jeep. If you Defender guys want, I can put a Rover badge on a Subaru Outback. Save ya some coin.

We're seeing excessive ring and pinion wear due to engine brakes. But mostly in pickups. Gear oil might be the difference. Other than that, I doubt you'll hurt the axle gears without doing anything catastrophically stupid. Manual trans have the weakest reverse gears. Usually modern auto...

Our Dodges are diesel. Well over $100,000 trucks. Ouch. Our customers are still having fleet issues with the hemi's in Rams and Chargers. Literally a dozen brand new crate hemi's stacked up at the garages front door.

And the Bronco 2 (sport) version coming up. That might put a dent in sales to the pink sweater vest types.

Axles will be fine. Depends on the vehicle, but some manual trans have weak reverse gears. Dig ramps with a shovel, then gently pull in reverse with any decent modern vehicle, and you should be ok. People that grab chains and ropes before shovels, not so much.

125,741. https://www.goodcarbadcar.net/jaguar-land-rover-us-sales-figures/ In the US, LR sells less vehicles total, than the worst car ever made. (2018 #'s, 142,617) https://carsalesbase.com/us-chevrolet-cruze/ So you can't say ''reliability'' is a problem. Or blame a low production...

A ''halo'' vehicle, is what we used to call those. Corvette for GM. Lexus LFA, which actually sells at a loss for Lexus, no profit. Viper for Dodge. Remember when every Dodge had a grill or headlights copied a bit from the ('94?) Viper? I don't think our younger generations care about...

Now that's what the defender should have been. And major lolz at the computer rendering of BFG's with a Thornbird tread pattern. If that's not a trolling sense of humor, poking at the off road guys, then I'm nuts. Can't wait to see one in person.

It's just too soon for regular car companies to try the dual clutch semi auto trans stuff. It may be the inevitable future of semi trucks and cars, but it's not ready for prime time yet. You'll never have an issue with the infotainment system in a Super Duty, if you order one without one...

So good for an empty trailer about 7700#. I usually go for 20% tongue weight for stability. So that's only 3850. That's all I'd tow with that rig. Which sounds about right. A larger overlandy trailer, or a tandem jet ski trailer with long neck and tool box and fuel, etc. etc. 25'...

Bundutec already has that option. 4 little doors inside the camper, so you can reach the trucks tie down spots to hook up.

Ok, well I'm just going to use the ignore function on you, since I have nothing to learn from someone that selfish. Hopefully you don't kill any one with the ''little car, giant trailer'' advice. Everyone says ''Oh, yeah. Tows like a dream.'' Of course later on, it's: ''Save me, please...

Well, good luck. Don't drive that junk by me please.

Pretty safe bet at this point. But I'll gladly retract my opinion if it's so. One good gust and that SWB Porsche is toast.

Yeah sure. We hear that all the time from half ton owners bouncing of their rear bump stops while towing. This is not cool:

Kinda. My YJ was actually dirt cheap fun. SYE and driveshafts were the most painful expense. Most of the trails lacked maintenance. Overgrew and disappeared. Switched to fullsize to carry a bike to use those trails again. And boat, and trailers, etc. etc. An Suv that can't do fullsize...

Bundutec already has both an indoor and outdoor shower stock. Just add the shower tent of your choice. I usually don't bother. I just roll the trailer so the outdoor shower side faces the woods. And shower with my hiking shorts or bathing suit still on. They need cleaned to.

Lot's of jeeps out there. Plenty are mall crawlers. My neighbors Glad is nearly stock on 37's. Drives fine, tires are a bit noisy. Mopar has a simple bolt on kit. Many Gladiators are running 37's stock, so any mild suspension kit will do. It's not like they need a 6" lift with...
