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

    It's not so hard. But our dollar is worth about 74 cents US, so don't end up saving anything. Another note: most of our highways are laughable by US standards. We just took a road trip to Kansas city, and the I29 is light years ahead of 90% of the highways I've driven on in Canada. We had a one...

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

    Im in central Canada. ********** expensive here. I could maybe get pricing like that at the end of the year, but it would be slim pickings. The whopping 2 supercabs on the local lot were 48-55K after discounts still. Both were sports with buckets and console, one had the 2.7 one had the 5.0 I'd...

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

    Now I haven't always been a full size guy. I had a 2008 Ranger for quite a while, and that truck was with me when I started my business. It put in lots of work AND play. Cranked T-bars, LT265/75R16 tires, explorer springs and extended shackles, RCI skids, and bilstien shocks. I also had a...

    TRAILHAWK WJ

    Nice to see some WJ out there still Everything up here is rotted out, regardless if you can see how rusted it is from the curb or not, its there. Crazy you have no rub at that height with that wide of tires! Here is my 2002 I sold back in 2015. My wifes 2019 gets better mileage in city with 3.6...

    I'll try to post some pictures later today. It's mostly been to the latches/handles. I can't post directly from my.phone as the files are too large to upload. Unless I can figure out how to resize them. I think the plastic is just too brittle when it's 20 below or worse.

    Research/ Experience &Concern about Trailer Manufacturer Response

    Yeah, the fact the actual trailer manufacturer is in business building something other than niche market trailers helps ease the mind a bit. All the eggs not in one basket.

    The Whiskeys of the weekend. And the kind of terrain that is typical of "off road" for the truck.

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

    Some pictures of the surveyor tent we (mostly my friend Darren) picked up over a year ago. It came with poles, and we got it for $600. So although it is larger than we were looking at, couldnt say no to that price. We had six people in it this past weekend.

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

    Got a free weekend to go chicken hunting. Got to take the fiddy out and "rough it" in our groups surveyor tent. And by rough it I mean: central heating, beds that aren't the ground, single malt whiskey, and lots of snacks. Looks like the files are too large to load. Will add the pics later.

    2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ

    Good to see you found an old WJ in decent shape! I don't envy you for pulling the dash apart. Did you do the heater core and blend doors while you had it apart to deal with the AC vent issues? I'm surprised that the 265/70R16 don't run. I had a 2002 WJ Laredo with 4.7 and tow package I did a 2"...

    06-08 Ram 1500 mega cab vs 09+ f150 supercrew

    Im a Ford guy, and the last thing I want in a vehicle is an older high trim Ford truck. If you said XLT or lower, id holler ford. ( leaking sunroofs, failed cooling seats, exploding rear windows, all on top of the usual Ford BS of failing speaker harnesses in the doors, rusting cab corners, and...

    Decked Drawers review. So, i purchased this drawer system for the Fiddy when it was in work duty. They were in use for about 2-2.5 years in that capacity, and afterwards just for personal use, mostly camping. Durability: 6/10 Ill try to get pictures later of the damage they have taken over...

    Thor owned it sometime around 2015 I think, and things took a turn for the worse by 2017 for sure. They changed things like the floor and roof, going to a composite floor rather than aluminium, and to an EPDM or TPO roof rather than aluminium. I don't know where you are but there are pretty...

    Outfitting the new-to-me 2018 F-150....EcoBoost specific thoughts?

    My mistake i thought you were on 275/70R18 In any case that fuel economy is very reasonable for a truck of that weight at those speeds.

    Outfitting the new-to-me 2018 F-150....EcoBoost specific thoughts?

    Interesting point about the Fuelly app. I just use the browser on my desktop, I don't have the mobile app, but never ran into such an error. The 36 gallon tank is awesome. Do you have a tune or just a reprogram to compensate for the tires?

    Just Downsized to a Renegade (build and trips)

    What is your fuel economy on average while fully laden with people and your travel Gear? Also, was the pre filter on your air filter a stock thing or did you add that? And notable performance difference with that? I enjoy the fully realistic daily driver you have, withe the focus on daily...

    Trailmarker, Weeroll, Intech. If you have money and can wait a long time, VMI Offroad. Try to find an older Livin Lite camp light 11FK maybe? Pre Thor ownership. Stay away from Forest River NOBO and the clones from other lines owned by FR. Also stay away from things owned by Thor. Oh yeah...
