    do you carry a gun ?

    I've taught firearms training and tactics for many years. I feel the need to tackle some of these statements: Maybe, maybe not. Each situation can be different. Why is this wrong? One example: If someone is approaching me with a knife, and I feel there is time, I will threaten them with my...

    Extended Range Fuel Tank add-on: Pros and Cons

    One disadvantage of a two-tank setup is that the switching valve(s) can malfunction, sticking one way or the other so you only have use of one tank until repair. I had a Ford with factory dual tanks, which incorporated an electric valve. The malfunctioning valve system left me stranded once...

    Custom Triple cab Unimog 416 on EBay

    A bit over-the-top for my tastes, but you couldn't duplicate it for anywhere near the $45k buy-it-now price! I'd definately have to de-bling it.

    Introducing my new rig: The Phoenix

    :iagree: Easily done...they are reproducing the "screaming chicken" hood decals from the 70's Trans Ams. You could just put one of those on each side!!! ;) Nice rig! I'll be sure and wave if I see you putting around!!! Scott

    Gvw

    daverami-- You may know this already, maybe not... The GVW is not the weight of your vehicle; nor can it be considered any sort of baseline. The GVWR is the maximum the "whole package" is designed to weigh at maximum capacity...meaning your payload plus the weight of the vehicle. So, you would...

    Diesel Conversion kit thoughts....

    Well, you didn't say we had to own a LC to give an opinion, so here goes. Sounds about 3-4K too high, but what do I know. (Shipping and the cost of everything has certainly gone up since I checked into conversion costs of various diesels.) What would the price of just the motor be? What I'm...

    Apology

    First of all, glad to see you're back! I always enjoy reading your posts. Will check out the new addition to your website. These ideas should go down in the ExPo "words of wisdom" hall of fame. Very well said. This is how I view travel as well:coffee: ; unfortunately, I'm usually with...

    Apology

    TeriAnn One or the other of money issues or health problems is enough to make one grumpy. To have to deal with both at once is an incredible challenge. I hope things work out for you. You are a tremendous source of knowledge, so keep your head up. Scott

    Car swamp coolers

    Like Muddy said, I believe you'd have to be pullin' that string all the time. And an older friend of mine, who used to travel in a car (as a youngster) when these things were in common use, said you get a "nice" spray of water immediately after pulling the string. Some other options for you to...

    Mopar Performance diesel swap kit

    I just received the latest issue of Diesel Power magazine. In the news section, there is a blurb on it. It reads: Diesel Jeep Swap Package? Rumor has it that Mopar Performance is working on a diesel engine swap kit for '97 to '06 Jeep Wranglers. If it's true, we expect the details to be...

    Mopar Performance diesel swap kit

    I had a diesel Liberty and it was anything except underpowered. As far as smog regs, I would think this kit would legally be limited to vehicles made on or before Dec 31, 2006. The diesel Liberty was killed because the engine could not meet the more stringent emission regs in effect on Jan 1...
