    2x2 full suspension 6000w kick scooter

    Went down this rabbit hole wanting something more portable than my ebike with more range and full suspension. After a bit of research I discovered, like everything nowadays, they are all made in China except for one S Korean company. Emailed the factory direct and got custom specs for half...

    If you can’t comment without being triggered by the politicians names, this thread is not for you. Seems like a good thing for the camping crowd but the question is...will we have access?

    Finally finished my "not drawers" cargo solution for the GX470 that mounts to the 3rd row seat mounts...

    Nice. I did something similar but just used pipe fittings and took out the 60 section on the 60/40. With the front seat all the way forward in can stretch out my 6’4 self. I’m only 8” high but can get a ton of stuff under there.

    GX470 Unsprung weight grenading rear diff

    Offroading breaks stuff, “overlanding” not so much. There should be a difference to how they are outfitted but that is not usually the case. The result is a rig that does both okay but neither very well. Over weight and top heavy is not good for the drivetrain if you are tackling obstacles...

    GX470 Unsprung weight grenading rear diff

    Few things.... 1. don’t spin and hop the rear and you should be fine. 2. Learn to use the left foot lightly on the brake in wheel hop situations. 3. Under loaded is better than overloaded. If you want to be a wheeler and an overlander you will do neither very well without spending a ton of...

    Thats what i do with mine. Don’t even use the hand pump, just a couple breaths to top it off.

    Rivian R1T (pickup) vs. R1S (SUV) for "overlanding"

    ask Rivian if they will work with you on a trade in for the SUV you want when it is available. Seems like you could work out a win win where you keep your spot in the cue and they get to sell, and resell, more vehicles.

    Am I nuts for considering sticking with P-metric tire?

    Years and years ago i got two flats on the mohave road. Been running E or LT rated tires ever since and have not had a single flat. I like to feel the road so the stiffer sidewalls does not bother me. Go with a skinny LT tire if you are worried about MPG. I think it sort of depends where...

    Will I Fit into any Midsized Trucks? Tall People Problems...

    Another 6’4 person here to whine about how we have been forgotten even though our number keep growing, thanks milk. if there is a vehicle you really like but cant fit it in, look into after market seats and/or seat risers. I had the same issue looking for a mid sized SUV. I ended up in an...

    Fuel Storage at Home?

    I have some pipes that come out of the ground on the side of the house that make a great fuel can rack. Even has some sort of gauge to weight things. I think its broken, only seems to work when im doing laundry, which is so weird. I keep my ammo under that which is hidden with oily rags.

    7.3 question

    Gauges are key if it doesn't have them already. These are cool too because it monitors everything and you can set ranges with an alarm. It reads/clears codes and does an injector buzz test and cylinder contribution test. https://www.aeroforcetech.com/products_order_ford.html. Google “ fuel...

    7.3 question

    You could rebuilt a 7.3 10 times and still not have as much into as a new diesel. You will have better reliability with the 7.3 and won’t have to think twice about Baja diesel or that backwoods gas station with old diesel and water at the bottom of the tank, 7.3 don’t care.

    Avoiding virus during 10-day trip

    Ask your doctor first and foremost. You don’t have the luxury of playing the odds. Campgrounds in CA, the federal ones that are open, are not much different than New York as far as people density goes. 10 days worth of supplies is tough in a small car, you will have to use gas stations and...

    Which EV would you buy?

    Seems like they could import some talent but that would explain why they have been so stagnant. I swore off toyota as well but ended up in a Lexus so I failed, kind of. I had a 3.0 extracab for a long time that was just a pile. Years later had a tacoma with only about 30k miles burst into...
