I'm a GMC/ Chevy guy, and I used to love those full sized big old Blazers, so my first tendency is to gravitate towards a Tahoe. But clearly a Dodge 2500 has more "oomph!" but it's from 1997...that's a lot of tears ago. A much newer Tahoe? Yeah, I could use the lesser age to justify it...

Another thing to note: you are sort of comparing apples to oranges. Im not a Dodge guy, but clearly a 2500 series will have more hauling and towing capacity and any half ton will have a better ride, even if the half ton Chevy were solid axle. If badge is meaningless to you, it's all tow...

Naw. I had no trouble at all passing annual inspection many years in a row in my 93 full size Blazer Silverado 5.7, no trouble in my 94 full size Blazer Silverado 5.7, and both were IFS with torsion bars. Have had no trouble in my 14 GMC Sierra 5.3 and thats IFS as well but with coil-overs...

Um...

Personally I would absolutely take heed of whatever @Alanymarce has to say. Theyve been all over. Check any thread they are in

Have one of these in the office, placed on top of those clear blue 5 gallon water jugs. Honestly I just carry my own water in Nalgenes, but this seems to work. I think water coursing through it recharges it, though it does surprise us and need to be connected to the charger from time to time.

No special license needed for a 250/ 2500 series 3/4 ton in the US. I've never driven the Pan-American trail, so I would defer to @tjZ06 or @orange01z28...@Alanymarce I would wager has a ton of experience as well (see what I did there?) As Alanymarce talked about some mid-size vehicles, our...

I grabbed some "crappy" offroad lights from Harbor Freight. Unfortunately I have yet to hook them up. Could you post a play by play how you hooked yours?

Yup. That's just about right

It's the old 4 cylinder vs 8 cylinder discussion. A 4 may be tricked out to similar hp as a stock 8 cyl, but the 8 idles at 750rpm, and doesn't break a sweat doing heavy hauling that a car would struggle with. Same with off-road capabilities. However, as others have said, know the limits...

I've been looking at Forester Sports, then my eye wandered towards the Forester Wilderness when it came out. My nephew just bought one, built a platform in the back and took off out west. Maybe next year, for me. But for me it would be the Forester

For the record I have a 14 GMC Sierra, bought it used some years ago with the tonneau on it. Took me more minutes to remove it. Took a lot longer to put the Leer bed cap on. When I removed the tonneau, I stored it in the basement along with the ridgid mud flaps and the front bumper "chin...

Most soft tonneau covers are held onto rails by velcro. Just take it off when you aren't camping. Mine came off pretty quick and easy. It's a GMC branded one, so, whoever made it

CCNS?

K1500 Custom Trail Boss is what I see

'It's pointless for a human to post scenes of nature on an overlanding forum, when he can go outside and drive in it'... or something like that.

Consider fanning through or searching the site for this topic. It has been discussed over and over again here - beaten like a dead horse, almost - though not as much as "which tires should I buy" If you asked which brand or model radio, I could see that, as technology and offerings change evet...

Just renewed mine. Truck is 10 years old, over 200 thousand miles and I do 100 miles a day in it.

Um...
