    Any minimalists?

    I've used my Burb in minimal fashion a few times, not because I don't want anything more, but just haven't spent the dough on more. Inflatable camp mattress in the back, a couple of tubs for storage. Eventually, I'll probably go as far as a hatch tent and a little more camp gear, but that's...

    Sometimes it's the little things... (GMT800 Burb)

    Well, to be honest, the damage multiplier came with the truck when I bought it. The front plate, however, was all me. I like some of the more... aggressive trucks, but that would kinda limit my Burb's utility for everything else, especially with gas prices in flux. ...and the Shuttle can call...

    Show your Burbans

    2004 Z71, Mostly stock, as I use it on the highway a bit. I'll be looking for that magical compromise as I continue to tinker with it. Even with the recently insane gas prices, I've saved money on a couple of solo trips, as with the 3rd row out and middle seats folded, plenty of room for my...

    Sometimes it's the little things... (GMT800 Burb)

    My Burb has received a new (refurb) rear axle assembly and an engine (Jasper class 1), done at a shop... cuz warranty. So, I've kept it in the garage and driven it as needed (haulin' stuff) and started a list of the little things I need to get caught up on. The rear seat my daughter uses had a...

    Mountain biking

    My wife and I rented a couple RadRovers when we were in Colorado this past June. Though we're both well over average rider weights, they did fine, getting us into Pagosa, around town and up the hill, and back to the house with a surprising amount of charge left. I'm not in a spot where I'd...

    Resolved OB app crashing

    I just updated the app, and it's crashing as described above. Samsung S21 I was able to quickly tap on the chat icon, and it's stayed up, so the problem appears to be related to the map screen.

    Is Driving Over Snow-covered Highways Permitted?

    Here in Alabama, some will spin out if a snowflake hits their windshield.

    Mountain biking

    Not my "best" mtb, but it'll fold up and fit in the trunk of my little Hyundai. I want to set up a "dock" to mount it in my burb.

    Mountain biking

    Montague Paratrooper. I think they've gotten better lately, but mine came with a few lower end parts. Now it's solid, and folds up to fit in the trunk. I'd like to set up a mount of some sort, in the back of my Suburban, where it can hang out between rides.

    Chevrolet Suburban and GMC Yukon XL Registry

    I'm fine with the stock wheels, but 285s would be nice, and I'll look into the suspension parts mentioned. Thanks!

    Chevrolet Suburban and GMC Yukon XL Registry

    2004 Z71 Suburban, Central AL 225,000 miles 5.3 Only mod so far is the grille/brush guard. I'm looking more for anything that'll give it an edge offroad without messing with highway/commuter use.
