Update - Still looking; everything i've looked at has had "undisclosed" issues. Not a big surprise. The worst has been "oh, it's not 4wd? I always though it was." On the upside, I'm still open to Ford, GM, or Toyota. As everyone has offered, the right, clean rig will suit my needs, no matter...

those things are pretty stout... 300lbs would not surprise me...the Tuffy tactical is 274lbs http://www.tuffyproducts.com/p-309-tahoe-expedition-and-h1-tactical-gear-security-drawer.aspx

Test drives have begun; I think it may be a bit before I find a good match for us. Checked out an '03 Lincoln Navigator (partly 'cause it'd be fun to show up at overland expo east in a de-badged navigator w/ 17" steelies) The navigator had been de-bagged and coiled. A little probing showed lots...

I think I'll need to upgrade my engine hoist and tranny jack for that job...

Our family of four (with two kids heading toward 6 foot in the next few years), plus dog & gear led us to the full size decision. I had planned on buying a "beater" '00 to '04 H6 Outback to drive for a few years, then use as a donor for engine into our Westy. That outback generation is simply...

For no particular reason, we like the Yukon XL better than suburbans, so that's good for me!

Good, thoughtful advice from all. That's why I love ExPo. Thanks folks. Asking prices around here (Charlotte, NC) are surprisingly close for comparable Sequoias, Expeditions, and Suburbans/Yukon XLs. I'm shooting for under 150K, under $8K (preferably less). We'll be test driving anything we...

I am a fan of parts availability, be it in Baja, NOLA or North Carolina... I'll add the GM siblings back in the midst. There are a couple Yukon XL near by. I think the Tahoe/Yukon is tight in the 2nd row when they crammed in a 3rd row, but the XL and Suburban are mighty spacious. Thanks all for...

I have friends w/ Tahoe XL, Suburban, and regular sized Tahoes. None of the GM trucks floated my boat (they all seemed to float too much as a matter of fact) - all of my buddies love their high-mileage family-hauling GMCs. Also have heard the "most" anecdotal stories re: transmission problems...

Looking for advice - we have an '86 westy. 2WD w/ stock engine, an LSD on the 4-speed, mild lift. We love the interior room & self-contained convenience for our family of 4. I've taken it apart and built everything back up. Since moving down south, we don't like the lack of AC & low power. I...

In North Carolina. RAM350 V8, Quigley conversion, posi-traction-traction, locking hubs, working AC & tacky blue leather interior. 61K miles. My wife says I have enough to play with already... http://charlotte.craigslist.org/cto/5160694206.html

Having flashbacks of what I did as a teenager in the back of a new '85 caprice wagon...

Sold.

Tony - I suspect no, even if I break them down. Also suspect they'd be over weight for the flat rate box. Checking shipping costs for 1st potential buyer - will add shipping estimate to thread on Monday if still for sale.

Replied to PM.

Towers are old-school, very stout, very tall, in pretty good shape. A touch of rust on some of the tower edges, factory coating is intact. The only part number I could find was a stamped "9202" on the tower, but no Thule research turned anything up. Missing one bolt at top of one tower (in...

I'll jump on the "bolt through" suggestion. I used rivets to mount DOKA mirrors on my westy vs. the sheet metal screws VW used. That was an upgrade. I bolted through when I put a rack on my old Subaru wagon, and used some thin aluminum flat stock to spread the load. I'm a fan of overbuilding...

Sold!

Bump. (Back home from adventures in Maine.) Price drop - $75 (OBO) + shipping.

Road trip bump: I'll be in and around CT, MA and Maine (alright, I'll be driving through NH on 95, too.) over the next few weeks. PM if you're interested (w/ an OBO) and I'll bring the stove north.
