    Talk me out of a Power Wagon

    My vote would be F250 with the 6.2 or 7.3. I understand the hesitation with Fords due to the previous vehicle history but both major issues appear to be caused by design flaws that are well documented. Maybe the 7.3 hasn't been out long enough to establish "well documented" design flaws. I've...

    2019 Frontier SV 4x4 Crew Cab LWB weekend adventure truck build

    Right on! i hadn't considered how the barn door opens vs my tailgate/cap's rewindow. I can't open the tailgate with the bikes on either, it would hit them and i do have to tilt the rack to open the rear window so i see how the barn doors could cause an issue. I look forward to seeing more...

    2002 Chevy S10 4x4 Crew Cab

    Look at it this way, its not a ZR2 but that means there are more plentiful and cheaper replacement parts! I would love to build an S10 for a camping/light wheeling rig I think the 4.3 is an underrated engine in a world where toyotas get all the love

    2019 Frontier SV 4x4 Crew Cab LWB weekend adventure truck build

    I like the build a lot, definitely appreciate a self contained camper/vehicle in one that maintains its foot print and is able to get to some places well off the beaten path! I love Seaside Oregon, only visited once but I told my fiancé if I ever disappeared to look for me there. Questions and...

    Raptor Overlanding?

    Like @Jupiter58 said above, they make aftermarket suspension for your truck, honestly the most impressive/inspiring builds I've seen are people adapting and combining components that may or may not have been made for their vehicle to make something that works for them. I have a 2012 F150 and...

    The new 7.3 - how is it

    What year 6.0 and what transmission? Chevy made a lot of them for a lot of years… I have no doubt some will return good mpg and others not so good Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The full sized mid-size, my 2014 F150 "Fiddy"

    Drove my brother in laws 2021 powerboost today and the total 1 mile trip I did blew me away in just comfort and ease to drive. Didn’t really get to notice the drivetrain on such a short trip but the seats and suspension are head and shoulders over my 2012 xlt. I believe the new generation shares...

    Truck recommendation for TC and pulling bass boat

    Just my opinion but you are in 1 ton territory and probably dually territory with a 3300lb camper. Trucks are insane right now so if you don't need it this year wait, hopefully the market corrects itself sooner rather than later and we can all go out and buy our dream trucks ?

    10th Generation F-150 Overland build (The Craptor)

    Ever consider a manual quick disconnect sway bar? Something I've briefly floated the idea of but I have not yet touched the factory suspension on my 2012 F150 so no need for me to follow through at this time. Great stuff in this thread love seeing people use the vehicle they have and making it...

    Which new 1 Ton Diesel would you buy?

    If I were buying a truck today I'd go for a Ford. I think all three of the trucks would work for my uses and each has its area that it shines. I think the Ford is the best overall even if its not the best in each area. I do find their interior the most comfortable personally.

    2020 F250 6.7L Tremor w/ Carli & 37’s Build Thread

    I’m pro topper myself, picked this one up used and cheap so I’m hesitant to mount anything on the roof. Plan to get a reinforced model on my next truck and mount a rack/cargo platform up top, bed drawers and a slide on top of them inside. My fiancé was calling it a pap-cap when I bought it. Her...

    UTV Overlanding?

    I like the idea of a UTV for camping trips, I don't own a UTV but maybe some day. I've thought of building my camping trailer out or a newer one out to be under 2000lbs and towable with a UTV. I live in PA and UTVs like ATVs are limited to township roads so it makes travel via UTV near...

    Bike carrying options over a tonneau for a Tundra?

    A fellow member (@GTI-88 ) purcahsed these, I asked him how they were working for him and he so far enjoyed them. Link to his build https://expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/92-isuzu-pickup-reality-check-build.221481/

    2021 F150 Tremor Thoughts?

    How do you like the 6112/5160 combo? I too have a 2012 XLT 4x4 crew cab short bed and I'm torn between this set up and a raptor swap. Specifically how does it ride on rough roads? I live on the east coast so I don't need the raptor suspension for open desert driving but I want a level/lift that...

    92 Isuzu pickup reality check / build

    Do you think these bars would be sturdy if they were extended to the width of a full size truck bed? I have an F150 and was looking at these after seeing your initial posting about buying them. I was waiting to get your impressions on their build since I haven't found much luck finding reviews...

    92 Isuzu pickup reality check / build

    cool little truck, I would love to find something similar for adventures. Just a thought, would turning that cargo box around net better aero for trips? Having the sloped edge to the rear would help make a tailing affect and since the cab is in front of the box you wouldn't need to worry about...

    Recommendations for rechargeable LED lantern for table?

    these look very high quality, they don't list the color specifications but state "cool white/warm white/natural white" as different settings for the light. I have no experience wit these though. https://bigtentoutdoors.com/collections/area-light/products/ultra-2
