Go read the article. It's practically misinformation. In my fleet, I have a 2012 Ford Escape. It's a FWD unibody SUV like the rest, but it is technically capable of a 50/50 torque split, so it is 4WD. Compared to a Honda CRV or Toyota Rav4, will that minor detail matter to the trail? Not a...

That's surprising. Those tires look like they'd be great in sand.

I had no ill intent either. Just pondering through things with you. I'm glad you responded in kind! Personally, from being in numerous forums and Facebook groups, I tend to forget what we buy and drive is atypical. When you're out on the road and you see what everyone else is driving, you...

Despite the quality of the parts, the buyer with $27,000 cash is looking at something newer than a 2009 for modern tech and safety features. Likewise, the buyer needing to borrow money will struggle to find an institution that will loan that much on a 15-year-old vehicle. You put great parts...

Honestly, I'm not sure. The included charger I have hooked up to "shore power" to charge at home. The inverter is powering a generic 12v charger that came with a previous refrigerator.

I've been using the OEM inverter in my GX for about a year to charge my Jackery 500. I haven't had any issues with this combo.

Oh yeah, sorting is definitely a mess.

I've been running a 2nd hand iPad Air 4G for a few years now. It has been a solid choice, but there may be more affordable options out there.

Get a big Duracell for your starting battery and move the accessories to a Jackery or comparable.

AluCab stuff is double-walled. That's my next move.

How many of you are considering a 2024+ LC? Are we even going to be able to get ahold of a 2024 in 2024? Are they really going to get 20+ mpg? What's the lifespan been for any previous Toyota-used turbos and hybrid batteries? How immune is Toyota to the first model year curse that plagues...

I've abandoned this idea for myself, but I still see the potential.

I've used 5200 for years, but never tried it as an adhesive. It self-levels, so get a feel for it before you go crazy with it. Also, it only survives direct UV for maybe 5 years or so before beginning to chalk and degrade. You might get better answers from the manufacturers by not telling them...

Gaia is a great app with an amazing feature set, but the interface is completely unintuitive and the naming conventions increase confusion. Overlay/layer and route/track have similar enough meanings outside of Gaia that very different words should have been used. Being able to drop your own...

I cram the stock jack between the Hi-Lift jaw and the frame.

~$37,000, but... "The Sienna is the best car ever made for mankind."

36 mpg is the rating for the 2024 2.5L hybrid.

Welcome, Miggs! I too want to hear the take on the 2017. I'm not planning to buy that old, but I love knowing a vehicle's lore. As for the current models, inventory is poor. The only ones available are the high dollar Platinum versions that nobody needs.

I thought the same thing. I frequently reference such information just out of curiosity. Right now, sitting on my kitchen counter, is the charger for my 40v Kobalt batteries that feed my chain saw. Instead of the typical V/W/Hz, it has a QR code decal. Scanning the decal brings up info for...

I've had a 40v Kobalt model for years. It has been great. With any chain saw, don't forget that you can remove the bar and chain to shrink the form factor for storage.
