Back to the Future switched to a Suburban with two lighting pickups? When did that happen?

Yeah new Explorer/ Aviator is near identical in first gen Sequoia size but with mini van 8 inches of clearance. Which is just enough clearance to get into snow trouble in the Sierras. And pitiful in Utah when you see a cool trail the stock Sequoia would easily do. Stuff is either to fat/wide...

My late 06 early 07 build Sequoia has 107,000 on the Odometer. Its still straight up soccer mom rig. I even dumped my Beefy BFGs that were 6yrs old and put hybrid m+S BFG Advantage Sports on it before our 2900 trip in June. Lol My wife is cracking the whip on me to replace it and the daily...

Or get crazy and weld a bracket on the carrier for a camera lol Then your legit $300,000 expedition level machine

You would need to put it over to the left side, but angle the camera a little and you would have a view. It wouldn’t be strait line but it would probably work after getting use to the off center view

Ha ha yes yes it was. Pretty sure my neighbor learned some new colorful words My other idea was to mount it under/in the rear foil over the back window. That would possibly get the camera clear of much of your rear rack gear.

We hangared our Verieze with 5 others in a shared hangar and one Sea Fury! It wasn’t a big deal. Everyone knew each other etc. even did Hangar BBQs occasionally. I moved on to sail boats. Same deal had my racing boat at home, but setup and tear down got old fast. So rented a rigged dry yard...

I mounted my camera in the center trim section mid hatch behind the hatch window. Fed the camera wire through the hatch harness boot. Pulled power off the rear light in the hatch while replacing the plastic stock hatch handle with a metal one off Amazon. I was replacing my 2nd broken plastic...

With tundra tires you’ll be pushing the limit on height most need to get switched to itty bitty tires/wheels to fit on/in a trailer.

Hangar space isn’t that expensive. The amount you spend on a trailer would be several years of shared hangar space. When you go out to fly no pilot likes assembling and disassembling the plane prior or after flying. Lots of wear and opportunity to ding up the plane. I hope you have flown the...

It does look like the trend is to have a fuse in the frame to avoid the classic bed pinning doors closed after being hit from behind. Back in the day some really ugly truck accidents had occupants pinned in the cab due to the bed sides shoved past the back of the cab pinning the doors closed...

My LG 250’s typically run between 160-190watts in full sun. Hot temps impact all panels a good setup has the panel up off the roof some for air flow behind the panel. That alone can be a 30-40% increase in power over a flat mounted panel with no air flow behind it. ? Mine are on my house. My...

I spent 6 highway hours driving my brothers 2017 Highlander. The low grunt till 4000rpm was really noticeable we had 5 adults no gear. I could easily see the engine power / grunt combo being a show stopper for many truck guys. Especially once you up tire size, load some gear probably lift the...

You can use G-Flex epoxy to plug then redrill for a new fitting. I’ve used the stuff on many different applications it’s basically semi flexible shock resistant Epoxy. Pretty impressive stuff

I recall its like $30 and a little time to put dampers on a tailgate. If its that big of a deal.

I take it he hasn’t over heated it yet then? Yeah its an issue. One that a “truck” today shouldn’t have

I’ve driven the 10spd in the F150 and the Mustang. I honestly am really impressed with it. Smooth and yes no doubt lots of logic going on for gear selection. Plus the big torque numbers at lower rpms really help eliminate the gear hunting. There is always a good gear ratio and grunt. Add to the...

The all new ranger / Bronco platform is likely due to Fords hybrid plans. The 2020 Lincon Aviator is a rough look at what Ford could be planning regarding the Ranger and Bronco ability to be hybrid and/or plugin hybrid. The new platform will need a crash safe frame location for the battery pack...

Truck camper the Bison is out. Its not setup for heavy bed loads. I would have the Ranger on my list too. Put proper 4x4 tires on it and its going to be as good as the Tacoma. Some things will be unknowns like the 2.3turbo but Ford has been thrashing that thing for yrs and tweaking the design...

GM offers basic Colorados also.
