    F250 V8 Flex Fuel 6.2 - how cold it too cold?

    the only reason why a gasoline engine shouldnt start, is its so cold the motor oil has become so thick the weakened battery cannot overcome the resistance. also, you'll have no lubrication. that should be somewhere around -30 or below

    Downhill braking questions

    not quite the same, but similar displacement - i was doing some substantial mountain grade descents in my RAM 2500 with the 6.4 Hemi - in tow haul, it will lock the torque converter and will make every effort to hold the speed you are requesting downgrade. these were some pretty substantial...

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    I have some updates! i ended up doing the AEV snorkel after experiencing some mud in my airbox from my jaunts in Montana. Still trying to decide if it was worth cutting this big ass hole in my fender. Been toying with doing a set of RAM Runner fiberwerx fenders up front Untitled by Will...

    Expedition One Rear Bumper

    the person that now is in possession of my rear bumper said that he and his brother spent a couple hours tweaking the backup sensors and got them to quit acting up. He said that none of them are in the positions they are supposed to be in and it was a total pain in the ass. hopefully mud and...

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    i actually have the RED sliders for sale and i have the white knuckles mounted. I decided that being in the southern portion of the salt belt, i wasnt wiling to risk my rockers to rot. its unfortunate because i do believe the RED sliders to be a superior with how high they are mounted and how...

    2018 Ram 3500 G56 Expedition Family Adventure Vehicle

    ive heard that if you swagger your way into California with a deleted truck, CHP is waiting for you at the border to inspect and fine you 10 grand for your first offence. that alone is a huge problem for me, while California is 2000 miles away - i see several trips there in my future.

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    i honestly have no intent of getting rid of this truck right now. that said, im eagerly awaiting what the 2020 HD's look like. im hoping for a continuation of chryslers new smaller displacement direct injected turbo gasoline engines to find its way into the 2500's.

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    my compressors are very quiet and are commercial grade 100% duty cycle and waterproof. I've had two Power Tanks before, and while they're nice for speed, my nearest C02 fill site is almost 40 miles from my house one way and i dont want to have to get the tank hydro tested every 5 years

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    i never installed the airtank, i decided it wasnt needed. Im not sure how you would store air in the spare tire reliably, and drilling and tapping into the sliders and running connections to them isnt something i want to spend my time on, and goes against my fully self contained compressor box...

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    internal dimensions are 48x14x13 - so yeah there is plenty of room for long guns. you have the two locks on the handles, and each side has a loop for a padlock as well. the body is 1/4" thick rotomolded HDPE plastic and has a silicone seal all the way around.
