    2022 Chevy Silverado ZR2

    Raptor is $110k CAD locally, if ZR2 is $20k less then it's a touch more palatable. What prices come down to when COVID ends might make it something more accessible to people. I've not looked at it yet as anything sub 32 gallon tank is immediately removed from my list, but to get an "off-road"...

    The full sized mid-size, my 2014 F150 "Fiddy"

    Was going to pull the camper out of storage but saw the forecast and changed my mind. Going bush camping next weekend so don't need the trailer just yet anyway.

    Simple rims for modern full size trucks?

    What are you guys doing about the much less positive offset on all these aftermarket wheels? You are also adding wider than stock tires. Even if this isn't causing clearance issues, what about the tire poke a) throwing dirt and rocks up the side of your truck and b) traffic laws in your area?

    Best aggressive but not “all terrain” tires for my transit connect

    Since the connect comes with passenger car sized tires I'm not super familiar with what's available in those sizes. The APT is an "all terrain" but anyone with a truck wouldn't call them that. Otherwise I've found all non "AT" tires are pretty much all geared to 100% paved road. Regcabguy...

    Best aggressive but not “all terrain” tires for my transit connect

    Like a General Grabber APT? Or something resembling that? You looking for puncture resistance/bruise resistance?

    2022 Chevy Silverado ZR2

    So are they discontinue the Trail Boss then? Isn't there still a Z71 or did they ditch that when the Trail Boss came out?

    Mazda CX-5 GTR/Signature or Toyota Rav4 Adventure/TRD

    Do how's this been treating you all winter and spring?

    Fiskers X7 hatchet: NO!

    The way I read OP they are splitting with it, not chopping, so it didn't sound to me like they are using it for the wrong purpose. I have a Fiskars axe and a splitter that's between a short axe and hatchet in size that is pretty handy, but forget the model.

    What's a Frontier Pro4X worth compared to these?

    I'm not well versed with Ranger Tremor as I think it's overpriced, but doesn't it have the highest towing and payload of the three here? That's the way I'd go because I need 5000# towing. The ZR2 has a reduced towing/payload IIRC, otherwise I'd lean towards it, though I think on paper it's max...

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    3.3 isn't available with STX package on XLs, nor on Sport package for XLT, and not available on Lariat and above. IIRC equivalently equipped there isn't much difference in payload or towing rating between the 3.3 and 2.7. both tap out around the mid 7000# range. On SCAB 4x4 with large fuel tank...

    Rust Prevention and Reversal: Whats Your Experience?

    My wife's WK2 unfortunately came from the dealer with undercoating. Vehicle had only 100ish KM on it maybe less when the coating was done. Should I be worried? For the Fiddy I wash put wheel wells and bumpers and skids etc several times during the winter. Had I known better earlier on about how...

    Why don't we see more Ford Ranger builds

    It looks greenish in that light. I think it looks nice. Which means my wife would hate it ?

    Is that space white or what is that colour called?

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    Auto Mafia has some turbo kits for the 3.7 mustangs. Haven't looked too hard into them. They had one beat up rental car with 2.73 gearing and 180k miles on it they turbo'd, ran high 9s or something and threw a rod IIRC, just to see how a beat up semi neglected 3.7 could handle abuse. I don't...

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    That's mostly correct but the cyclone engine was designed with forced induction in mind as well IIRC. 2.7 I still hear less issues with across forums and in articles online compared to any version of 3.5EB and the later 5.0 with dual injection

    The full sized mid-size, my 2014 F150 "Fiddy"

    Preliminary route on our way to Newfoundland. I don't want to go through Ottawa or Montreal so will have to spend some time and see what viable alternatives there are.

    Black Series fire hazard

    Thanks guys Yeah I doubt that cable can handle the current. I also like how despite all the knock outs they just hacked holes into the panel.

    New All Terrain Tire from Nokian, Outpost AT

    It seems to sort of fill a different niche than the Rotiiva to me. It's more aggressive.
