    picked up a 2003 Yukon XL 2500

    Those OBC's typically are very conservative in the calc. It's probably 347 till E light comes on. That should leave few gallons in the tank.

    Fat bikes

    We should race. Or not... :D I think I averaged 3 pedal strokes per minute.

    Fat bikes

    I see. But you do realize biking down (or up) the mountain is the "long cut" compared to skiing, right? :D I was out there during Thanksgiving and rode Heil Ranch and Devils Backbone. Cool to have nice and clear trails in the middle of winter.

    Fat bikes

    One bike stable has been a life-long goal for me, but just isn't going to happen anytime soon. Too many open roads (asphalt and dirt), coupled with my laziness in the desire to change out wheels for every other ride keeps me from that goal. But if I did end up with one, it'd be a fat bike...

    Ford or Ram?

    Just print out the offer and take it to your local dealer. I've been able to leverage out of state dealer offers with local guys.

    Thoughts on this 4Runner?

    Rear locker was available up until 2000. Center diff wasn't available until 01 (except 00 Limiteds). But I have never heard of any issues regarding CD. What have you experienced? I had both a 98 and 02 4Runners. 98 was fine, but I liked the subtle refinements on the 02. Plus the AWD...

    Fat bikes

    Plus bikes are stealing a lot of thunder. I had a friend buy a fat bike earlier this year, went on one ride, then promptly traded it for a Plus bike. The sheer weight and awkward handling is a big turn off for a lot of people. Plus the whole too-much-specialized gear thing is stymieing...

    Running a Stock Rig ???

    Yeah, my 4wheeler is an old Suzuki 300, manual. It's got High, Low, and Super-Low range. Definitely doesn't have power to spin wheels, even if I wanted to, but I can crawl up a wall in that thing.

    Not trying to keep up with neighbors. It just comes down to lack of time and changes to our needs. I've already had to attend 2 xmas recitals this week. The kids are getting into music, dance, gymnastics, etc. How would I have time to do silly things like work on a truck or ride my bike...

    Fat bikes

    It seems fat bikes have hit their peak about a year ago. I see far less interest this year. Sales seem to be down, and generally not as much enthusiasm from the biking communities. I find this interesting, because (at least in my area) winter cycling support seems to be as big as ever. Bike...

    Says the guy on the MX bike. :D :D

    Thoughts on this 4Runner?

    Back in 2000, a friend purchased a new 4Runner (2000 model), SR5. Her sister did as well. Both came with color-keyed flares, chrome bumpers. In my area, this was more common than say the narrower black clad flares, or that strip of tin foil they used to pass off as flares. I don't think...

    Running a Stock Rig ???

    Not to pile on, but poor driving habits are poor driving habits. On most trucks out there today, you can spin a stock 29" HWY tires as well as 33" MT's off-road. I actually see the MT's tearing up the trail a lot more than the smoother treaded tires. And RZR's (and the like) can churn up a...

    It really does greatly reduce wear/tear. But that only matters if you're looking to sell in a few year's time. My old neighbor tried to get me on XC skis. It was ok, but it's much more fun on a fat bike. They make e-fat bikes as well, to go with your MX. :D We've all got some sort of ADD...

    Running a Stock Rig ???

    Bingo. If I were to do it over again, I'd probably just stick with the stock 32" sized tires (I'd still have gone A/T, though).

    That must be nice to have all that land. Cost is premium here. But I do like to keep my cars and trucks in the garage, if I can. I am realistic and know I will sell my cars at ~5 year intervals. Maybe that qualifies me as V-ADD (kojack, you're V-ADHD!! :elkgrin:), but resale is much better...

    Just busting your chops. :D Just thought it was funny the wild swings on vehicle choice. Yeah, it's definitely nice to have a truck for work and play. I wish I had enough room for a truck with 8' bed. Heck, wish I had room for a 6' bed. Garage is too tight for anything bigger than what I've got now.

    Basically just the next size up. Usually 1". i.e. 32" to 33".

    But that doesn't include other cargo and people, right? If I were in your shoes, I'd go DRW that will get you over 6k lbs of payload.
