    2021 Tahoe- Interesting but not sold on it

    Sorely needed thats for sure. Cross shopped the 19 vs the Expedition a few months ago. Not even remotely a competition regarding seating flexibility and technology. Bought a Expedition and so far really like it.

    UTV's as an overlanding vehicle?

    The UTVs with heat and Air would make sense. Especially for folks who have utility uses for them at home. I get the toy Side by side thing cheaper than a jeep “sort of” smaller so easier on tight trails. But they seem like giant expensive toys rather than a useful utility vehicle.

    What Half-Ton Truck & Why

    Dodge has always done well down playing the leading edge technology and more or less going with a little less techie for generally fewer issues in the field etc. The big three all have pluses tho. Hard to really fault one over the other outside if unique features or personal preference etc.

    2006 or 2013 Land Cruiser?

    The 200 has big advantages if you see a need for them. The traction hunting technology is light years more capable than the Dumb as dirt 100 system. So if your into muddy tough and or Snowy use the 200 is dramatically better. Neither one is a towing monster. They tow but I wouldn’t call them a...

    The Bronco might be interesting. It will be on the new platform which the Ranger gets moved too likely 2022-23. The existing platform is a tweaked global one. My guess is the new frame is designed to accommodate the hybrid tech and future design plans. If the Bronco gets the 100hp inline EV...

    PSA regarding vehicle service

    I think the most interesting idea would be for Auto makers to allow established shops to get certified in their brand resulting in more Warranty certified repair shops, increasing the competition from quality skilled repair shops forcing “Dealers” to get with the program or get out of the business.

    PSA regarding vehicle service

    Your experience is shared my friend. Its nothing new. However the way Dealers 3rd party Companies are moving to big corporate Auto Group owned store fronts covering large regions. These issues are getting worse. Primarily because not only can they manipulate regional vehicle pricing and...

    Cracks me up when people talk about steel wheels. I remember replacing them on a regular basis because they got the wobbes ie bent pretty easily especially on heavy rigs. Hell my trailer steel wheels had to go after too many wobbly miles.

    What Half-Ton Truck & Why

    Friends 1500 Dodge does low 20’s constantly. But his is 2wd work truck basic. For sure the typical tire upsize is a big hit 3-4mpg knocked off the top the moment you put them on.

    What Half-Ton Truck & Why

    My new 2019 Expedition 3.5 with 10spd worst case short local kid sports trips 17mpg and highway trips are typically 21-22mph 65-75mph speeds. I do think Ford has perfected the 3.5 since 2012. The 3.3 is Fords Fleet cheapest maintenance option and a good choice if your risk adverse to turbo...

    The Elon Musk "Love Will Keep Us Together" Appreciation Thread

    Given our top Education campuses are maxed out and have wait listed many very smart people. I doubt thats a problem. But then again if we take East LA school and Detroit Unified data our country should be done tomorrow by 3pm. Smart people go wherever they want regardless of borders. Brain...

    I’m sure he doesn’t care it’s probably light up time for him right now. But to appease Pilat “No I don’t know Musk’s favorite munchies” but I’m sure he knows for a fact what Musk eats after a good smoke.

    Actually Please find where I stated US is #1 in EDU. Actually please locate where and who brought up School Data in this thread. That seems to be a huge deal to you. Might even be bigger than your hard on for Tesla. You were so Proud and quick to post that your from a small Country. A nice...

    Actually “your facts” aren’t “facts” unless your standing next to me right now and know who I am. So continue on with your CNN view of the world. Because we all know “your facts” are the only ones that matter right?

    The “populace” of my home city alone out ranks your entire country. And yet I’m not here attacking your country or business men. Am I? Simply challenging your CNN perspective of one company. Which some how morphed into poorly aggregated public school data thats known for being total ********...

    I could but I would be doing so on California based technology and that would probably elicit your BS. If you want to compare specs how about comparing one of our CA Cities with oh right much bigger numbers than yours. To compare all of the US to Denmark is like taking Denmark and pretty much...

    No your Right all of Denmark matches one of our Cities GNP. And plays virtually no major International role in trade policy. Yet your miffed and post about Teslas business, actually Tesla CNN propaganda.

    Good for you but none of that justifies your hard on for bashing a US Company for using legal funding methods. What topic? Anti Tesla BS?

    That would explain allot. I give you a pass in that you likely have no idea how much influence, money and power it takes to to create a Global Company in today’s world. Its actually impossible to create a company even a small one without assistance from the Government. He’ll a good friend...
