Why condescend? It’s a genuine question. I haven’t stepped foot in one of these before. It looks like a topper with a tent on top. Maybe it’s not. How would I know if I’ve never seen one? What makes it worth $13000 dollars? Maybe it is, maybe it’s not. Again, how would I know? What’s the point...

Thanks for re-posting. SF as in San Francisco? Curious how it was you got access to look over the vehicle. Any idea if there’ll be more walkaround events? I’m in southern Oregon, would love to lay eyes on one whether I pre-order or not. Torn between this and a new Bronco. My fingers are crossed...

Anyone heard the fuel tank size for US models?

I have 255/80/17s on my Colorado Bison currently. Falken Wildpeak AT3W. They’re wonderful in all on-road conditions and do fine in dirt but I’ve been underwhelmed by them in mud and snow. Wouldn’t buy again due to how I use them but would be solid for someone who spends most of their time on...

That is certainly a beefier setup! Some more poke with the wheels but that’s a strong, wide stance that looks much better equipped for backcountry navigation. I’d have more confidence in that particular vehicle for my purposes than the stock one I see skitting around vineyards earlier in the...

Between geopolitical conflicts driving the fossil fuel markets crazy and new taxes used to stimulate growth of the electric vehicle sector, we’re all going to experience that pressure more and more. My driving miles are way down since moving earlier this year but I still recoil in horror at...

Thanks for reply. I wonder what the specs on the 35s were and whether they were mounted on stock wheels? Suppose they could have changed something up to make additional width as compensation for more height? Would like to know what kind of 35s, you recall which video you saw them in?

Is there any indication/sense from those who have seen or been following the Grenadier’s development how much tire will fit under the fenders and what type of lift might suit the vehicle best in light of its suspension? Looks like it comes with a 265/70 which is about 31”. Wondering whether/how...

I’m patient. Also highly likely I wouldn’t be able to afford anything like that for another 20 years. Sounds like the timing will be perfect.

I agree, it’s going to take quite some time to have comprehensive enough grid that most people in North America can travel with relative ease, probably will have to plan travel around charging stations like people did 50-100 years ago and out gas. The writer did get me thinking about advantages...

Yea, he was getting all fighty about injustices that were only happening in his imagination and taking a thread about an article on electric vehicles, trucks specifically, and turning it into a combat zone of aggrieved Americans vs. Everyone Else. Good idea to block. Sent from my iPhone using...

That was news to me! I thought I had a wifi only but it seems that isn’t the case. Thanks outback97 for clarifying. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

CarPlay is useless for navigating with additional apps, don’t count it, especially if you could get lost. Your InReach mini can pair to your iPad or iPhone and be used for GPS, but all Apple products have GPS even if they aren’t connected to a cellular network. If you download the complementary...

I would guess, based on your needs, that CarPlay won’t be an option for at least several years. CarPlay doesn’t allow for the interactivity of a tablet or phone, which OnX and GAIA require. It may not ever be usable that way. You’d need a display/infotainment center that is more of a true tablet...

I’ve heard good things about this company but don’t understand why the price tag is what it is? What makes this different from a topper with a wedge tent on top (aside from the obvious that you climb up from the bed instead of using a ladder outside)? What am I missing here? Sent from my...

The US of A wouldn’t be great or the power it is unless we were constantly innovating. Our economy and thus our international sway are dependent on our constantly reworking things like bumpers and safety standards. Change is the only constant. You either participate in it or you get left out. A...

I’ve tried it, it’s terribly clunky and slow. The two systems do not play well together. Hopefully they work that out with time but OnX is far better with a touch screen so I will continue to have my iPad mounted in my truck and use it that way when on trails. At best it was a beta version, and...

I keep reading this headline as GIVEAWAY instead of Getaway. Despondency typically follows. GLWS [emoji22][emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve had a set of Falken AT3Ws (255/80R17) on for about a month, been off road several times and my opinion thus far is they are relatively quiet and have good road manners but they leave me wanting off road. I’ve been in mud, snow, sand/dirt, and loose pack and they do well enough in the dry...
