    Built FORD Tough!

    Looks familiar to the ZR2 that kinked behind the cab. Also towing a trailer. In this case the truck was probably over loaded. Those race car trailers have a habit of getting really heavy. Add a 3000lb camper with slides and you now own a Ford banana

    F150 vs Tundra....I’ll make a decision tomorrow

    True $2250 on the Expedition gets you 650! But I’m keeping it stock. Its a family hauler

    F150 vs Tundra....I’ll make a decision tomorrow

    I really liked the 6.2. Dang what a nice engine! But the modern tech and 400hp in the Expedition I just bought was way way too hard to pass up It doesn’t sound as good as the 6.2. But geeze that 3.5 twin turbo is a beast

    F150 vs Tundra....I’ll make a decision tomorrow

    Toyota is a non competitor in the Full sized market. GM and Ford sell so many trucks it makes Toyota look like a small fry.

    Need the solar/power pros to weigh in

    I actually do that with my setup. Power out goes to a small fuse box 20amp max load I fused it at 15amps. Rarely ever do I pull more than 8amps

    people with portable solar panels...

    Most of these little charge controllers are designed for power boxes where the whole kit is in a box so the controllers typically have a temperature aspect that lets them cut power or other steps to limit issues if temps are out of range etc. I would mount the controller right next to the...

    Comparison shopping: Colorado, Gladiator, Tacoma

    My 2019 Expedition with the 10spd is interesting. I only have 200 miles on it total. The 10spd does down shift fairly quick with driver input, BUT!!! its very apparent that there is “if then” logic taking place under certain conditions and it won’t respond right away. In the BIG beastly...

    The truth about most RV's.

    Thats why you rent them for $114 a night when you want one. Then drop it off and it’s someone else’s storage problem. ? Only RV like things to own are the small ones that fit in a standard garage.

    The Forester is built on the smaller Impreza platform lower load rating 1500lb tow rating The 2020 outback /Legacy is now 3000+lb for the turbo version. But the new 2.4Turbo has had some early issues. Fuel dumping causing Ring failure etc. The non Turbo isn’t fast but it’s been tweaked and...

    Honda/ Subaru/ Toyota

    I’m selling my 2010 Outback. For the small crv Rav4 type forester rigs I would without hesitation go buy another non turbo Outback. It absolutely runs circles around all of them in both payload, towing, handling, seating space, mileage, price Simply put its a whole other class puts them all to...

    2020 Defender Spy Shots....

    I spotted my first Lamborgini SUV two weeks ago. It was doing the wine tasting circuit in Carmel Valley CA. Thats kinda my expectation of all these LUX brand SUVs. Which is why they all get 22’s on them. Granted the wife and I were in the SLK350 but at least we were in the correct vehicle for a...

    Suitable trailer for small travel trailer build

    Not to mention my 6 National Park trip with the family would have been like driving from Dublin Ireland to Croatia at 75-80mph. Lol The best and most enjoyable roads I’ve driven were in Spain. 45-50mph max. Huge wide higways and fantastic back roads with like 2 other cars. LOL
