Time to trade in the Ram, I guess. :D https://www.ford.com/trucks/f150/2018/

Which gets you so much more, while retaining the factory warranty.

Now that you've had it for a few days, what are some of your initial impressions? Pros/cons?

I would get a Tacoma and a winch up front. Problem solved.

And to boot, Tahoe's get close to 20MPG highway (at least the newer gens). I doubt the Explorer gets any better. . They've got good GC, though. They'll be good enough for a LOT of backcountry travels.

Fake news. :costumed-smiley-007 (the orangiest smiley I could find)

What's the outcome of the autopsy?

Just curious why the move from the LR4? I don't see myself getting one, but I've always thought they were great off-road machines with lots of power for towing trailers. Although the MPG isn't steller. - Which dealership? LHM?

I don't know....since I'd consider myself a bike geek, I love all the choices we have. It probably all depends on your level of familiarity in cycling gear, but even if you aren't, you really CAN'T go wrong when picking a bike in the genre you desire. And even mixed genre-- i.e. You want a...

Nice truck. I've got the same for my family as well. Awesome road trip/expedition machine. I'm all stock, though (minus 33" tires and tonneau cover), but gets me to all the places I need to go (so far).

I've had 26x2.35 Big apples and Marathon Plus Tour - http://www.wiggle.com/schwalbe-marathon-plus-tour-wired-mtb-road-tire/ - The MPT's were bombproof. Never EVER got a flat. I was especially thankful, riding in the dark, on those cold, wet days, knowing I'd not have to worry about fixing a...

That's actually not bad at all going 75, towing a brick. Guessing you'll be in low 20's if you drop down to 65mph. Nice set up.

Thanks for the info. I'll check out Silblades, Goodyear, and that mega-blade (in electric blue).

OG cool. Keep it stock and have fun with it. It will be a coveted classic one day.

Nice set up! What kind of HWY mileage are you getting towing the trailer?

Actually, I do clean the blades when gassing up. But I'll make it a more conscious effort to keep it clean. I heard good things about Silblades. I'll have to give them a try. Thanks.

Hey, what do you guys use? Mine's stock Ford (currently has 15k miles), and since the third month of ownership, it's gone downhill. Streaks everywhere. And I live in the high desert, which makes it even worse, since I haven't really used it that much. Fed up enough now to try some new ones...

I believe because you need a 163" wheelbase. This means, for Supercab, you'll need to select the 8' bed option (6.5' for Supercrew). It's "Heavy-Duty Payload Package". • 3.73 Electronic-locking rear-axle • 9.75" gearset • 36 Gallon Fuel tank • LT245/70R17E BSW...

Nope, wouldn't make sense to only offer it with 2WD. Although payload might be a little higher with 2WD, they definitely offer it in 4WD. You can do a build on Ford.com, which should show you all the configurations available. - Here is one. Supercrew, 4x4, V8, XL, 36 gal tank, 3.73 e-locker...

Yep, there are definitely trade-offs. I looked at the new Tacoma very hard, as the exterior size was right, and loved the aftermarket support. But at the end of the day, for my family, a full-size was the way to go. Just doesn't fit down some trails, but that may be 0.01% of the trails that...
