    New Lightweight Teardrop for those with a Fiat 500 Tow Vehicle!

    Resin-reinforced feathers! That's a new technique to me. Interesting... But of course, 13-15 month lead time.

    Ram Powerwagon vs Chevy Colorado vs Jeep Wrangler Rubicon vs Suzuki Samurai for Snow?

    Agree on this -- again speaking of on-road, but it carries over: I would often choose the Samurai over the Suburban because in a pinch I could probably get enough guys to just pick up the Samurai and put it down somewhere else. Or get pulled out by just about anything. And the narrow track...

    Ram Powerwagon vs Chevy Colorado vs Jeep Wrangler Rubicon vs Suzuki Samurai for Snow?

    So many variables in "snow," much less the vehicle, tires, load, etc. Is it wet snow, powder, over slush or ice? How deep? My experience is living in the snow, not offroading, but the first thing I look for is clearance to get the drivetrain and body over the snow. In Buffalo I daily drove a...

    Looking at possibly buying a 2002 f350 7.3 Diesel -- Need help! Photos included

    This is one of my all-around favorite packages. I drove this configuration for work (except, sadly, the 6.0) and it could do all we asked of it. That deeeep first gear won't get used much, but it's nice when you need it. Around here these have a tendency to have rusty oil pans, which can be...

    The Mountain Goat got a new paint job. The finest Rustoleum Satin Taupe rattle cans that money could buy. Still need to clean up all the overspray, then the wheels are next, blacking them out.

    Barn Door for JK factory hardtops

    I would buy one. I work with portable boat gas tanks daily, and had considered some sort of apron for them to ease the solar heating and expansion. Your Molle on the outside is a great idea!

    Barn Door for JK factory hardtops

    The first flat happened at speed, didn't know what happened. As I was pulled over at the next rest stop checking things out, I hears the psssssstttttt of the second tire going flat. I could manipulate the valve stem to get the air to stop if I held it just so -- like rabbit ears on a 1970s tv...

    Barn Door for JK factory hardtops

    Word of caution: I installed a similar set up on my Dodge W250 this summer. 50 miles later I had two valve stems fail on tires that had <100 miles on them. They were the cheap rubber stems, and I can't say that the installer didn't do a poor job or that the stems weren't poor quality, but I...

    No affiliation, etc. If this is real it looks like a great deal. Has been listed since mid-October, at least, but previous ad didn't have any shots underneath. There is, thankfully, another set of wheels inside. Engine bay shot shows the A/C compressor. "RARE DODGE 300 1 TON 4X4 VAN has a...
