    S10 Shakedown

    Maker’s Mark is my recommended distillery. We have visited all of the ones on the Bourbon Trail, and then some. Maker’s was an unanimous pick as our, and the other couple’s, favorite site, it’s just so pretty. I also really like the recently opened Castle and Key in Frankfort KY, but their...

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    I have the autostopeliminator on my F150 and it has worked great, glad I bought it.

    Tundra vs F150

    Here you go guys, 20.4mpg over the last 2400 miles. As I said I would, here’s my 2018 F150 with gen 2 3.5 Ecoboost (w/ max tow) mileage for the last two weeks. This is one week of daily driving and one week of road trip with some ranch driving in the middle. About 1/3 of this mileage was on...

    Tundra vs F150

    Again, I like the Tundra, but if someone thinks the Ecoboost isn’t significantly more fuel efficient, well, I’ll start a Fuelly.com for it and we can discuss results in a few weeks.

    Tundra vs F150

    My F150 with max tow package hits all of your list except highway mileage. Computer says I get about 23, in good conditions, on the highway. If I actually did the math, I’d guess I’m probably getting 21. Regarding a post above, about some people seeing the age of the Tundra as a negative and...

    Tundra vs F150

    According to Fuelly.com, a 3.5TT F150 gets about 2.2mpg more than a 5.7L Tundra. I bought a 2018 F150 for the power, fuel economy and aftermarket. If you’re OK with all of those on the Tundra, I’d look very hard at getting the Toyota.

    2015 Outback Suspension Refresh

    Awesome! Do you have any side shots of the whole car? That’s about the perfect amount of lift these cars need, IMO.

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    I would expect the Ranger MPG observations will get better as warmer temperatures arrive, along with summer gas, and the engines get broken in. A lot of the newer engines have such low internal friction, they run quite rich to get things up to temp.

    2015 Outback Suspension Refresh

    We just put KYB struts on our 2015 at 90k miles and noticed a huge improvement in body control. I can’t imagine what yours feels like with 156k on it.

    Small efficient overlander

    Forester or Rav4 are my two top picks at the moment.

    Subaru owners: Let's see your expedition rigs!

    Our 2015 3.6R has averaged 22.7mpg over 88k miles, according to our log on Fuelly.com. I think that’s great considering all of our family trips have been with the cargo box on top, or else it would probably be a few tenths higher. The small mileage penalty is worth having the 6cyl, imho.

    My Journey

    Tonight, I was at a gala fundraiser for a friend’s non-profit that provides mosquito nets for Uganda. One thing he said in his speech was “God is bigger than this country.” Now, much like Jerry, I am not a religious man, but in that moment I thought of Jerry and what he’s doing for people in...

    The Wife's '15 Ford F150 EcoBoost

    You’re thinking of the 2.7TT. The best I’ve seen on my 2018 3.5TT w/10spd is 23.3mpg indicated on the dash.

    [YEAR 7!] Quit our jobs, sold our home, gone riding...

    They are still traveling and it looks like they plan to continue for 2 more years. The Expo blog posts are 1.5 years delayed and their Ridedot blog is just over a year behind actual. Thoughts (like being fatigued or ready to call it quits) and dialogue from blog posts occurred at that period...

    Ford Ranger Debut

    Maybe the US Ranger Raptor will have the high output 2.3T from the RS.

    Lets see some full size pictures...

    Lead Foot. Apparently it's highly sought after on the Raptors and it's what made me fall in love with the truck. Everyone I've talked to has complemented the color as well.
