A good set of winter tires will solve your adventures in most of the areas in the states. Especially in New England. I drove my Saab 9-5 Wagon on winter tires in NH and upstate NY winter and it wasn't too much behind of Subarus. In some cases it drove even better. If you have means get a Ford...

When I hear Land Rover talking about adventures I am like uncle Jun... speechless and confused what they are talking about.

"trade dress." Interesting. Is it even possible to make a utilitarian vehicle with high off-road capabilities and not look like Defender or G-wagon or TLC? It's like trying to build a hunting log cabin and trying not make it look like a hunting log cabin. It is really hard. On top of this...

There is a significant difference between the mechanics of the Df and Gr. Will the judge take this into account? As for the looks, well yeah it looks quite similar... If they lost a case in the Common Law system, will it it be taken into account as a precedent in another Common Law country (US)?

What is Ram's EcoDiesels overall satisfaction and reliability? It's been around like 7 years. Ram would have discontinued if it had been bad.

hm… isn’t open differential, that can be mechanically Locked 100%, better than complicated central slip diff where you can’t even put it in low gear without locking it electrically? Also size wise that transfer case is smaller than the Toyota’s. This is not to say Toyota’s T case was bad.

Speaking of 4X4, awd, fwd and such. I present you the best awd or 4x4 system ever engineered by the mankind: The system of Land Rover Defender, RR and Disco I. It was combination of mechanical simplicity, robustness and amazing performance (3.5 low gear ratio). No chain connection. It was all...

I always find one thing strange with Toyota pickups that is you can't get a rear locker in lower trims as an option. You have to go to the higher trim to get it as a part of the trim such as TRD or TRD Pro. I personally would like a lower trim truck, with a higher payload than TRD, and a rear...

Ford has walked away from a diesel for 1/2 trucks. However, GMC continues to put diesel in the Silverado and Sierra. Expedition Portal gave the truck very good review. 30mpg on highway excellent. It’s is what my 2.3 Saab averages...

Out of all models and trims, among the crew cab models, which one is gonna have the best load carrying capacity? I am sure it won't be Off-road Pro trim.

This is exactly why I have zero interest in small trucks such as Tacoma or Ranger. I only just started paying attention to this. I have a dog, hunting gear, living gear and want to get bikes and kayaks and a small boat for duck hunting. Two adults + food and water and you are way past of the...

Generally, I liked it! Not sure about the payload numbers if true. p.s. what is a half tone crew cub 4wd truck with the highest payload in the market these days?

Man, it must have been a blast! Was it in the costal TX? ----- My dog Just passed the Utility Hunting Test (HZP) , a day after she turned a year old, with 178 score which very very good. She was the youngest dog in the test with a zero practical hunting experience (was too small and it took me...

Sure. But still, very expansive for a naked van assembled in the US. The Ford awd is at least 15K cheaper. My assumption is that they, the dealers, know why the young people are buying them, specifically the 4x4 ones, and put huge price tugs on them. The normal delivery / fleet vans with 2WD...

Yes, big trucks are somewhat impractical in some part of the world. Even in New England there are places you can't drive an F-250. Surprisingly there are many American Trucks in the western Europe. I have seen a lot of F-150 and RAM1500. I even saw a few F-250 in the Netherlands. But when it...

The US, Canada and Australia are the truck countries. The UK is kinda there too, but still many well preserved Defenders available. The continental Europe is kind of a mix beg. The AWd Vans are very popular in agriculture, service and recreation as well. Russia loves utilitarian SUVs but they...

All the video reviews are surprisingly good. Even if some of them are paid shills still the others seems to honestly be liking the truck. The qualities the all notice are quite a few such are the very good pairing of the 3.8 and the 9 seeped, soundproofed cabin, the ride quality, and simplicity.

A buddy of mine at my dog training clinic had a well prepared Tundra. The other day I saw him and he this time had a pretty basic F-250, maybe even a fleet truck. I asked why he switched the trucks and he said when he put all the gears, guns, duck stuff, 2 dogs, water and food plus towing a...

Is the fuel economy significant among the HD diesel vs HD gas? The first time I saw a diesel cheaper than gas was a few ago in CT... never seen before. Also why can't GM put their trucks on SA?
