    '13 F-150 WELL BUILT only 6k Mi!! Crewcab 4x4

    One potential caveat- the new '15 is supposed to be 750+# lighter as they switch to aluminum bodies- much like the new RR's. IF, and a big IF they keep everything else equal, it should increase the payload by the same margin. As far as the measurements listed above, I used an aftermarket...

    '13 F-150 WELL BUILT only 6k Mi!! Crewcab 4x4

    PM is fine, though between you, me and Aaron there must be more in this same dilemma. Perhaps a thread, but which section for best discussion?? The payload is not near 3k#, sadly. Loved the truck otherwise- EB and all!! Very comfy, decent mpg, super quiet- thought I had the formula. Until the...

    '13 F-150 WELL BUILT only 6k Mi!! Crewcab 4x4

    Petrol is obviously doable, but also need more GVW as we found a pop up truck camper. So, in the 3/4- 1 ton trucks, the payback on diesel makes sense... And we just did 1200 miles this weekend in the'burb ('03 w/ 95k mikes, 2500 4x4 and 8.1 for occasional towing) at 12mpg!! There has to be a...

    My 1989 Suburban with a Westfalia top grafted into it... also dual 360 swivel seats

    So glad to see someone do this!! I had originally considered a Flippac on a Defender 110, but a bit pricey. Then decided a perfect setup on a 'burb. I am more convinced than ever now! Great project, and wish you many happy trails with the family, and congrats on the addition!! Cheers

    Yep, everything except the CanBack and 8274, which I cannot part with as I have had it quite a while, and it has been used to create some fun memories ;-)

    Looking at Discovery 2's...what should I be prepared for??

    Coming from a JK, and never having had a Rover, you should find the nicest example of a D-I (either an '94/'95 or '97-'99), a D-II ('00 or '04), and a LR3('06) and drive them all the same day, whilst taking an experienced Rover geek with you. Folks want to web buy a vehicle that has soul, and it...

    F150 Ecoboost vs 5.0 in the hills

    I've had both, and feel it is chocolate/vanilla- choose what you like. The EB is a bit more thirsty towing, while better than the 5.0 empty. At elevation- hands down the EB wins the nod... Complexity?? The 'go to' Rover engine is the 'basic' turbo diesel- world famous for simplicity and...

    '13 F-150 WELL BUILT only 6k Mi!! Crewcab 4x4

    I didn't just read the Internet forums, but also spoke to 3 mechanics at 3 different dealerships, and found no real life issues for the Ecoboost... Glad to see a member so close! And yes, the PW did sport a FP briefly, then went to a UTE bed. And I am sure your bank would not have issue at this...

    '13 F-150 WELL BUILT only 6k Mi!! Crewcab 4x4

    The 150 is the Ecoboost, and gets pretty decent economy- an honest 20mpg IF you try, otherwise upper teens. The biggest issue is third world fuel- diesel is easier to get, and less sensitive to contaminants- or at least compensated by multi filters. Next is load capacity- pair of dirt bikes in...

    '13 F-150 WELL BUILT only 6k Mi!! Crewcab 4x4

    As some of you know, I have a bit of Vehicular ADD, which I had hoped was under control. However, after returning from Central America with the family, driving a Defender, we are likely going to be venturing further and further, and have decided to go with an older 7.3 PSD 4x4. With all that...
