You think Mercedes hasn’t received US gov money? Really? With your logic no GOV business loans should ever be issued to the highest failure rate businesses. Any guesses what those are? Ma and PA Restaurants Those small business loan failures make Tesla look like a hiccup in a kids Lemon aid...

Most nay sayers get their pantys in a twist when people buy non American stuff too. Funny how Tesla started out selling Mercedes last yr and you don’t see these people whining about the tax deals cut with Mercedes to get their plant in Alabama.

I really wanted one of the new midsized rigs. One thing talking to dads with them was how they all found the short beds to be smaller than they imagined. Once they started packing their stuff/toys etc the short beds were not as roomy as they had figured. This was one of the things I ran into...

I’d skip all three and just get a big boy car. The Outback is way better machine than all three. 20yrs of Subarus and the OB is the only one I’d bother buying. Stay away from the Turbos and you should be OK. But last few yrs Subaru has struggled with parts quality/ consistency you can get a...

Mine had the same grease turned paste on 2nd row door latches causing the rear doors to not unlatch with the outside handle pull. Hot regions and high temps I think turned the heavy grease into a sticky paste. I used silicone spray its light weight and liquid form helped loosen and soften the...

I had a similar thing with my 06. I checked fuses and found the fuse needed to be pushed back in. Fixed

A good friend has run a custom car shop for 40 yrs. He only uses 3m materials given lots of fake stuff regarding films that are complete garbage. Security films he does on store windows and has done on racing desert trucks. He said that its the real deal the material is impact reactive and goes...

Its not the bull bar. Its the lever effect it has on the frame ends when you load it up above the frame. The stiffer the bull bar the more levered load it applies to the frame. Basically unless the top section of the bar has supports angled back through the grill some how missing the radiator...

If he wants odd duck and off road ability VW TL40. Think big van version of the little VW syncro. Way cheaper than the Pinzgauer, way faster, way more global treking room.

We’ll my 2019 Expedition with 1000 miles on it took a large 4point buck between the headlights two weeks ago. He came down off a hill at full run opposite side of the road at us at a 45 degree angle basically head on full run. I was doing 35mph hit the brakes and basically stopped just as he hit...

My 10 and 8 yr olds have hit the point they only do well in their own defined sleeping space. I’m a big fan of bunks / aka bunk beds or pipe berths etc. Our setup is likely going to change soon due to this and wanting more weather durable shelter vs our tent on a trailer setup now. Single...

Finding skilled composits builders in the foothills is near impossible especially if your shop isn’t constantly doing projects ie employing the skilled labor The only small composites shops I know of specialize in racing sailboats and take on odd ball side jobs to keep the lights on. Campers...

He was basically building a camper like a high performance sailboat. Huge tooling costs and large manual labor costs. Its sad to hear I knew him in passing via the sail boat circuit. Very nice guy and very passionate about composit construction. Building high priced toys is never a easy way to...

Nope not at all. Here because I get a kick out of the LC is god feedback. I found it to be mehhh.

These specialty builders are tiny little hobby shops where an owner and a few friends that like to build cool stuff build a few trailers. They rarely are business people and most don’t make much if any money doing it. Same type of deal in the racing sailboat business. Small shops, small numbers...

I can’t lift mine. Parking garage accessible is important. But wheels and tires might be on the list in 2-3yrs. Ford is going bonkers at SEMA this next yr. Very curious what ideas get shown. Today mine hauled my rolling tool box to work on grandpas house. Now it’s hauling 4 kids to gymnastics...

My set up is typically only 4-6 amps burned and my 2 10watt panels do about 1.5 amps during peak solar hours. Lol I only run some LED lights and charge phones or Ipads. Even on foggy coastal trips we rarely have issues with more out than in. My house on the other hand is 8.2KW system and its a...

30ah full 24hr cycle are you counting the solar in during solar hours? If its not charging the battery by much during the day you either have a higher use some how or your panels or charge control aren’t putting power back into the battery. What size solar are you running? Example peak amps at...

Amps out vs in. Its not hard. Something your doing has a thirsty amp appetite
