    2015 Colorado. Any plans for a review?

    I'm a diesel guy. Last year I bought a Grand Cherokee Ecodiesel and love it. So far I've averaged 28 mpg in over 15k miles of combined driving.

    Unloading/ Loading a truck camper....

    Slightly off topic but for those of you that leave your camper on the truck with jacks do you ever use the jacks to stabilize the camper when you're in it? I guess I'm wondering how much the camper moves during the night...(insert joke here!) Thanks!

    Toyo M/T again worn down after 25'000miles! Need better tires! Bighorn, Dynapro, KM2

    My F-350 is about 8000# empty. I have always run Michelin LTX as I have found that they're the only ones that last (I'm in construction). My suggestion would be to try the LTX AT2's PS. Could you post a pic of your rig?

    NEW 2015 3/4t 4x4 pickup CHOICES/features/value/reviews/experiences/etc.

    I'm glad you went with the F-350. I have one (I'm in construction) and as long as you're not into rock crawling I think you'll be fine. I'm just starting to look at campers for mine and right now the FWC Grandby is on the top of the list. I like the idea of a low center of gravity that should...

    Two experiences stick out for me but both were on the water. Back in 1995 I raced the SORC and the race from St. Pete to Miami was during a storm...rounding the Dry Tortugas at 2 AM the halyard jammed and I had to go to the top of the mast (85') to fix it in 5-8 foot seas. Got the **** beat out...
