    Diesel for overlanding- are you happy with the choice?

    Yes, basically it got no after market. However it comes with a factory locker. Also, its seats are exceptionally comfortable, which apparently were designed based on a NASA research.

    Diesel for overlanding- are you happy with the choice?

    Have you looked into Nissan Titan XD diesel? There are relatively cheaper and pretty roomy inside.

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    I meant the outlets in the trunk like Tacomas or the gladiator. Other than that it’s very decent truck. Also Ford has just announced a new ford awd transit. 3.5 eco boost, lsd rear axle and awd... It will make a good camper. Makes me think of a van instead of a truck :D

    2020 Defender Spy Shots....

    Maybe someone will develop a lift kit which make the car stay permanently lifted and also replace the air lifts. Has the marketing team ever considered that some farmers in Scottish highlands or in Austrian outback may need an actual farm truck? I mean the folks who are the brand loyalists and...

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    I have just seen my first ranger at the nyc auto show. I can says that so far it’s the roomiest small truck I have been in. I felt a way better in the ranger than in a Tacoma or Colorado. All of them were on the same floor. Also saw the engine, which is very small, and the 10 speed transmission...

    Tundra vs F150

    If I were you I would also look into a Nissan Titian. They do come with a factory locker and good mighty 5.7 engine. Good room and amazing seats. As for the tundras what’s the point of buying it nowadays? Toyota is working on a next generation, which is probably gonna come out in next year...

    2020 Ford Transit AWD

    Is this a transit’s transfer case? I’m sure some guys will come up with some sort of low range kit.

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    I shell say that I don’t like the Honda Ridgeline, but to be absolutely honest it’s a perfect truck for big urban dwellers who almost never leave the urban areas. This is actually the vast majority of the small truck owners. In my neighborhood, in nyc, I see quite a few Tacomas prepared for...

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    Ideally it would've been near perfect if Ford had offered only diesel, a baby powerstrocke, mated with the 10 speed. But still, my attitude is postie about the new ranger.

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    You right Dalko. There is only so much you can do with gas engine. All those highly advanced technology makes things complicated... and meanwhile Toyota continues producing low pressure, conventional engines and remains a winner. If you want to have an efficient truck there are tow options. 1)...

    Here is How the 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD Delivers the Torque to the Ground

    I don’t like how thy put a tiny knob for 4wd on the left side. Those off-road engaging buttons should be very clear and easy to understand. Can they bring levers back, even a fake one?

    Budget, but brand new, Fullsize expo rig ideas.

    I agree this truck is not super economical, but that is not too bad... I had a coworker, back in Michigan telling very similar numbers on his Tacoma. ———— Why does the Chevy use IFS on the HD trucks? To improve the riding quality?

    Budget, but brand new, Fullsize expo rig ideas.

    Thanks guys for the answer. I have very limited knowledge of the HD trucks. I like where the conversation is heading. Let’s keeps the conversation and suggestions coming. Another question, How comfortable is the 2017 f250 for long distance driving? Including driving on dirt roads? I...
