    Ineos vehicles at SEMA 2024

    Same. I really like the Quartermaster but not enough to spend that much for a truck.

    Do you regret buying a base model truck?

    Heated seats, I use them year round. After dragging around semi truck parts all day it feels awesome on my back. To go one step farther i wish the seat itself could be toggled off so then just the back is heated. When it's 100* and my back is sore having the seat bottom heated doesn't do...

    Do you regret buying a base model truck?

    I get so sick of the power seats in my F-150. Every time I get out I bump the lever thing to lay the back seat down. Bump it 3-4 times and it becomes very noticeable. My '02 with manual seats... they stayed where I put them.

    Yup. And all the fun and games that goes with the lifters wiping out the cam. Not horrible to fix, similar to a old school cam swap.

    Will Jeep and Ram Truck Prices Take a Steep Dive Soon?

    I'd hardly call that "stuck" lol. Add in a split bench and you have my truck. I like my collum shift, with a auto you put in gear and drive, I don't need the thing taking up space in a console to just sit there.

    Will Jeep and Ram Truck Prices Take a Steep Dive Soon?

    Once upon a time there was a much larger price spread... I ought to play with it again to see if there is something different between Canada and US though. I was poking at it early this year and I don't think PW was an option, just a trim.

    Offroad capability of full size truck

    My newest tractor was built in 1953, I farm 6 acres with it and push snow with it. They don't rust out, a little TLC now and then and they last forever.

    Will Jeep and Ram Truck Prices Take a Steep Dive Soon?

    I don't think they do it anymore but I always loved the concept of a Tradesman Power Wagon.

    Mid-size vs Full-size truck setup

    I can't wait to get back into a Supercab F-150. Supercrew with a functional sized bed is so big and unwieldy. There is no way I would want to recreationally offroad a half ton.

    Multifunction tailgate does effect tonneau covers if you were thinking about one of those. Not all accommodate that option, same with Rambox if you are of that persuasion.

    Look at the skidplates and make sure they are what you want, OE skidplates are usually not much to write home about if you really offroad.

    It's on the hood badge as well. Also the alternator kinda resembles a extra chunky old York a/c compressor front and center in the engine bay.

    What Half-Ton Truck & Why

    A tune I wouldn't fuss over, a supercharger on a truck to work would be a hard pass for me.

    Etorque became standard in the last couple years of the hemi. Dust intrusion is like where your cab fills full of dirt when you drive on unpaved roads. Very strange, I have no idea what their problem is. My old F-150 with no cab corners and the sills rotted off the bottom of the doors stayed...

    What Half-Ton Truck & Why

    It would be fun to run them beside each other, I very much preferred my 02 F-150 with a 5.4 for towing over my '16 with a 5.0. The 02 had a superchip tuner, the factory shift strategy was inspired by 1970's Cadillac. '16 is a better platform but the 5.4 is a truck engine and ran like it...

    The newer cab the 2019+ half ton uses can have dust intrusion issues. 2500+ still uses the older cab which we never had dust issues with. Hemi has typical Hemi fun, lifter tick/cam issues, cracked exhaust manifold/hardware. Regular oil changes seems to help lifter issues. Hemi is no longer...

    New Scout Electric SUV from VW

    Dad had a '67 1100 pickup for awhile (my great grandfather bought it new) The steering was like steering a ship (picture the movie titanic when they see the iceberg) and the shifter had like 2' of throw. It was like driving a big truck but was just a light half ton. Interior door handle...
