    Instead of the tradesmen stuff, have it colour matched in Line-X

    Pretty sure that guy was murdered a while ago.

    Bug out challenge

    I think the only possibility of this whole thing going crazy is if they quarantine an area, and people start looting/attempting to take supplies from others. Wouldn't be for very long, either, i'm sure the national guard would be there fairly quickly to quell that, like the hurricanes/katrina/etc

    EPA Diesel Engine “Delete Tuning” Crackdown...Is It Here Now?

    Good friend of mine has a fleet of about 50 diesel one ton trucks that are used exclusively in the logging industry, they adopted the 6.7 Ford in 2012, (and are still solely buying 6.7 fords today) and for a while deleted about half the trucks, using various tuners and delete kits etc. They went...

    What is the craziest recovery situation you made it through (or didn't make it through)?

    Copied from my old build thread- This is roughly feb 2017 --------------------------------------------------- Well ****. This has been a weird week. I rolled my truck. **** **** **** We had a day of 50f weather, rivers of water down the roads, and 0f that night. Then, it snowed about...

    2023 Ford Raptor- Continuation

    Keeping an eye out. I looked at a Jayco toy hauler (*maybe it was forest river? Can't remember...) and it was setup perfectly, but seemed to be built so, so cheap. Grassland, you appear to be in Canada as well from the posts in your build thread?

    2023 Ford Raptor- Continuation

    Quite a curious thing regarding payload actually, (NOT TOWING, just rated payloads) a good friend of mine has a 2019 Ram 2500 cummins, and his payload rating from the factory (coil springs + heavy cummins) is 1,980 lbs. My F150 payload rating from the factory (leaf springs) is 2,050 lbs. With...

    Debated about sharing these two pics as I just discovered editing photos and made them kinda cheesy playing around, but what the hell.

    2023 Ford Raptor- Continuation

    So a bit of a whirlwind couple weeks, I ended up installing air bags the day before I left, which turned out to be a very good idea. Went over a scale for fun and truck and trailer fully loaded was 12,371lbs. Never realize how heavy everything is, but that was food, fuel, coolers, gear, big flat...

    2023 Ford Raptor- Continuation

    The difference between garbage chains and good chain is only about $50-100 a set, but they're extremely difficult to find. Garbage chains will just break and destroy body panels, order them from a place called "canadian chains" they ship worldwide, and that's who most of the loggers around here...

    F150 with the Heavy Duty Payload Package?

    I guess i'm an old man at heart... I like a big noisy V8 (summer car is a 2019 Mustang GT that is... Shall we say delectably loud), but there is nothing worse than daily driving it. Love how quiet the eco is.

    F150 with the Heavy Duty Payload Package?

    I absolutely love mine. I've owned a 2013, 17, 18, and 19, all 3.5 eco's. Have driven many 5.0l's and they're just absolute dogs compared to the eco's.

    2023 Ford Raptor- Continuation

    Well that was sketchy. Went to get my flatbed trailer, stored at bottom of a very steep hill. Couple inches of snow, no worries right? I got about 1/4 of the way down, and even the most minute brake application would trigger brutal abs engagement. Slid to the bottom, and about out the back...

    F150 with the Heavy Duty Payload Package?

    My dad has a 2019 3.5 eco, and gets 19-21mpg depending how much city is mixed in, his last truck was a 2017 gasser F250 and would get 12-14mpg. Swears up and down the 3.5 tows an 8000lb travel trailer better too. Makes perfect sense, the 6.2 has 385hp, 430ft/lbs and a 6 speed tranny, the eco has...
