    2005 Gen 3 Montero (Pajero) Overland Build

    285's on stock offset wheels still rubbed a bit in the front on minor obstacles, ride was super harsh compared to stock. Some people don't mind a lumber wagon, but 90+% of our driving was on road.

    2005 Gen 3 Montero (Pajero) Overland Build

    I had 265/75R17, 285/75R17 and 235/85R16 KO2s on my '05 over my ownership. Would totally NOT recommend a lift (I did the OME medium & Bilstein shocks mid ownership, would not do it again). Best tire size 265/75R17. I can't imagine the problems you will have going to 35" tires - good luck with...

    The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV...

    I didn't know there was a Bilstien OEM option. I'm guessing the valving would be pretty different between a 3.0l GT and the PHEV for reference PHEV Front Mits 4060A613 bil F4 35260561-T0 Mits 4060A614 bil F4 35320005-T0 PHEV Rear Mits 4162A457 bil F4 24260572-T0 I don't get many google...

    2005 Gen 3 Montero (Pajero) Overland Build

    I'll third for tires. 265/75R16 or 17. Chassis is very susceptible to NVH from tire hum & rumble --> choose them carefully with the advise from other Gen 3 owners. I had good luck with BFG KO2, I did 3 sets of them over the 120K miles of ownership on my '05. Falken Wildpeak A/T were unbearable.

    FYI- BAJA NORTE VIOLENCE.

    Yep, my wife has given up on even flying into the tourist areas of MX. Too many other good choices to fly too.

    89 V6 Raider AT (AW 03-72) into 89 LWB montero?

    no. AW372L (03-72L, A44DL) is the lockup. Found behind the V6 3.0L 1990 to 1994 maybe 1995 - 1995 was a mixed bag. Common name for the 4 cyl trans was the KM148 although it is the same sans bellhousing as the AW372 (non lockup). Depending on where you are located, I have a lockup version in...

    The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV...

    Let me know if you find shocks for the front that are not KYB (OEM) or ridiculously expensive. I do have Bilstein in the rear of my '14, unsuccessful finding anything but KYB for the front, so have not changed them out yet.

    12v portable fridge

    I have an Alpicool G22 and it is excellent. I also have an Edgestar 45L - its good as well, but large for most of my uses these days. It sits in the basement plugged in as a beverage cooler.

    What online tools do you use for long (road) trip planning?

    Google maps - I like the traffic updates.

    The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV...

    I gotta say - my wife really likes her '18 PHEV GT, I am quite happy with my '14 3.0L GT. Both were built in the Gufu Pajero plant. IIRC the Japan content of my wife's '18 was 99% or something crazy like that.

    EarthCruiser is closing!?!?!

    even with great credit, the bank is going to want its collateral worth something. A 15 year old RV on a 20 year note isn't worth much. At 8% on a $200K rig in 15 years you still owe $82K.

    EarthCruiser is closing!?!?!

    Back to the office mandates, already had my fun for a couple years, trying to get out before more depreciation hits, finding out that full time isn't as fun as Insta makes it look... Upgrading? so many reasons.

    Would an Extra $5,000+ Make a Difference?

    I used to live in China 2008 era and have frequently visited for work since 2004. Basically went from the old slow trains that were common even up to 2010 to connecting the entire country with high speed rail on separate tracks in 5 years. Communism does get large infrastructure project done...

    Would an Extra $5,000+ Make a Difference?

    My wife and I are taking a 3,600 RT mile road trip (part of Route 66) Memorial day week. I can't image how much extra time this would take even DC fast charging if it was conveniently available on the route. It is interesting that even thought Rivian vehicles are Tesla charging capable, only a...
