    Best used diesel?

    Hey guys Looking to sell my 14' Ecoboost Crew and get into a diesel. It just isn't an efficient towing vehicle and sucks empty too. Towing a 6000# trailer I'm getting around 30 L per 100. Wouldn't mind going back to an older Chev, an LBZ if I can find one. Not particularly picky but has to be...

    Best MPG in a truck / Ecoboost sucks.

    I've been driving a 14' Ecoboost Crew Cab (157" WB) for the past three years and while I like how it drives, and the interior space - this thing sucks as a daily driver. Even on the highway, I struggle to crack 15 L per 100km. Combined I am over 16. I drive it like a grandmother. While I don't...

    Winter rated all seasons

    Anyone have suggestions for a snowflake all season tire? Just realizing that the Goodyear wrangler SRA's on my new Ford are going to be terrible this winter. Have bought winter specific before ( Nokians) but looking to run one tire all year.

    Speed Demon LED?

    So looking at a new light bar...loved my last Rigid 20" but...didn't love the price so much. Looking at a 30" Single Row LED or perhaps a 30" double row or comparable. I'm not looking at your Ebay specials...it's pretty well Rigid or these guys (or similar if you guys know of any). The price...

    F150 Halogens - Brutal

    So I have the halogens on my 2014 F150, because I bought off the lot and didn't want an FX4, etc, or more like I didn't want the price. So for that reason, I bought off the lot. I like the truck, but these lights are terrible. I drive with low beam at night, because the high is just that bad...

    Vacation Ideas (with kids)...

    Yo guys Looking for ideas on a winter holiday. I'm sort of thinking all inclusive. Been about 6 years since I have been to one, and with kids, think it might be a lot easier than our typical vacation as of late. Usually we rent a condo somewhere, car, and basically do our own thing, meals etc...

    Austrailia

    Anyone here been there? Any tips, things to consider....? Looking at going in January or February and haven't been to that part of the world yet. Probably rent a vehicle and fly in one end of the country and just make my way over to the other side over a few weeks, and fly out from the other...

    Wiring a Canopy 3rd brake/dome light

    So I got a new canopy..and I want the third brake light and interior dome light to work. Question is, I'm a little unsure of what to tie into. You'll see that the brake light and dome led light run down to the left side in a black and red two prong connector. From there I have a harness that...

    No Power in trailer off batteries

    Hey guys So I have 2 6v batteries on my trailer. They are both reading in the green when I hook them up to a charger, so I assume they are still good. I have power when plugged in off the house, but nothing off the batteries. Am I wiring this wrong? This is how I had it last year and it was...

    Canopies

    For those of us cool kids running canopies, what brands/models are you using. Likes, dislikes? Options? Old truck had a Leer 100R which I wasn't super happy with (leaky windows, crappy latches, shoddy windows). New wheels are canopy-less, which I like the look of; hate the lack of secure, dry...

    Black Tanks

    Hey y'all. Here is my problem. We have been travel trailer people for 2 years now. My constant headache is the blank tank. It doesn't matter what I do, there is always blockages, the gauges never read empty. I use Rv TP, lots of water with each flush, having a healthy amount of water sitting...

    Price on new 1/2 tons?

    What's everyone paying on new half ton trucks, all in? Just looking to get an idea before I go play let's make a deal. Thinking that it makes virtually no sense to buy a used rig and potentially get burned off warranty. Thinking GM or Ford. Middle of the road trim, crew cab, 6.5 ft box.

    5.0L or Ecoboost

    Looking to trade my Silverado on an F150, purely for a bigger interior. I don't need a 3/4 ton etc. Couple year old truck with low KM's sort of thing with leather and big boy length box. Now I'm leaning on a 5.0L and am not overly blown away by the real world numbers for the V6. I like a truck...

    HID's - Wtf

    For the love of god people, seriously get off the Reflector housing HID craze. No one thinks your a baller, or thinks your driving a fancy import that came from the factory with them! What people, like me think is 'Your a f'ing idiot' You might as well announce to the world 'Hi I'm a Douche'...

    California?

    Hey guys, wife kids and I are thinking of doing the Disney thing in April, and looking to stay for a couple weeks do the beaches, etc. I'd rather be closer to the water than Disney. Any good areas to look for a rental house, condo? Not looking for a hotel. Any of you ever stayed in Newport...

    Canopy/tailgate seal?

    Anyone else have this problem with their tonneau covers or canopies? Getting a ton of snow blowing in the gap between tailgate and taillight. No accidents, etc. it's a 2010 Silverado. Anyone ever use, make, buy some sort of gasket, seal etc? Pretty annoying. In summer it's dust back there on a...
