    New Bronco

    I forgot I was reading a Bronco thread here for a bit. More derail, The 3.5 engine series was designed with turbo charging and direct injection in mind from the very beginning, along with a range of displacements. The bronco is a heavy boy, I'd have to check but at 5k that's probably...

    Best Platform

    God bless america I need to move there. It's a huge fine just to drive 85 mph in my province, or a good portion of Canada, never mind hitting 90-100 to pass anyone ? Legit be a dangerous driving offence and license suspension.

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

    Well got the axle seals replaced. So this rear differential has had the fluid changed several times now lol. Also had the parking break linkages and shoes replaced. Have a working parking brake again, and that's always good. I have to raise my rates at work, as everything else has gone up...

    Which of these trucks should I choose for full time living?

    Not to be a ************, but where I live in Canada, a 90s truck will be a rusted out hull body and or frame wise. And have at least half a million kms on the engine and transmission. Yes they don't have the nightmare of current emissions equipment to complicate things, but trying to take out...

    Yeah I'm totally great with you on the road. Your knowledge of what's going on with your own vehicle is miles ahead of the average Joe. You understand axle ratings and how tires factor in.

    Just seeing a straight cab these days is worth something.

    INEOS Grenadier

    I'm a bit confused, but coming from pickup trucks, where you can get a volume trim 4 seater with power windows and locks and a solid rear axle and locker, outside of Covid pricing for 40k CAD, how an 80k SUV offers something commercially unless it's twice as reliable. It looks good and having...

    Jose's Simple 2019 F150 Build

    That looks like a great time! Truck looks good. How long can you camp like that without a resupply?

    '21 Ford Ranger Lariat WHY NOT?

    Historically to my knowledge the large rebates don't come out (in non Covid years that is) until after the close date for a build to order truck.

    Newbie: Suggestions for well-built off-grid campers with a sitting/table area + temperature control? (under $25k)

    It's unfortunate the average mainstream is so terrible that mediocrity seems stellar by comparison. The mainstream Thor and Forest River stuff is so terrible it hurts. Twisting C channel frames. 2900# axles on 3500# GVWR trailers. 1x1 staple and wood framing inside even if they manage a few...

    sundowner trailer vs

    Maybe an Escape 17B with axle lift and upgrades. The cupboard doors won't stay closed and it's only a step above standard aka Forest River or Thor quality as far as interior goes. They do have tubular steel frames instead of C channel like R-POD or Winnebago Drop. Molded fiberglass body is...

    So only the Xoverland tacos and 4runners exceed that weight rating then.

    I've never seen the water so low there. It's crazy how bad the droughts have been. Plus the Armageddon like ash fall some days.

    As a side note, I feel more people should be broad sided when they do stupid ******** like pull out into high-speed traffic and stop

    We went to Rushing River for a week. It's my wife's favorite place. We also have Blue Lake on our list for later this month but just a weekend.

    New Bronco

    I'm surprised the jeep 4xe is "fast" at all. The Ram 3.6 E assist sure isn't. *Edit* Well I learned something today, the Jeep is a plug in hybrid and not just an E assist like the E torque in the Rams

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

    Tried Makers Mark. Was a gift, and I liked it. Had too much tho. Parking brake lever/actuator thing on the drivers side failed and I had to bash it loose with a poor selection of tools while in a parking lot in Kenora as we went in for the day (a Friday of the long weekend). So that's on the...
