In fairness, the Jeep crowd has been asking for a v8 version of the Rubicon for years now. And the Hellcat in the Ram, well, speed in a truck is just not my cup of tea, but its someone's. This Grand Wagoneer looks as inspired as a watered down, tech's up version of a 2011 Tahoe. And I like the...

I dont think so. This is based off of the Ram 1500 underpinnings. None of the rugged looks of the Ram or of the original Grand Wagoneer, it seems

Scout on Mt. Washington

Scout the Thundah Beagle on point

But yes. I agree the axe is a versatile tool. I dont carry one, but I do carry an Estwing leather-handled hatchet and a bow saw

For what it's worth, a maul, or a small sledge and a wedge. The maul is wider than the axe and much more effective. The hammer and wedge are much safer.

Gotta keep him on leash, tied out or on a run. Otherwise the Beagle in him takes him hunting, and I MIGHT see him by dinner time, maybe

I dont want to go anywhere I cant take my Beagle. Being outdoors and in the woods or mountains just means less if Scout is not there, too. My preference is for trucks or wagon style SUV's. To that end, I have a gently modified 99 Grand, but lately prefer my 14 GMC Sierra. Here's Scout on top...

Just watched the Jeep Wrangler 4xe and Grand Wagoneer unveilings. The Wrangler hybrid should be OK as long as you carry extra fuel offroad (most do anyway). I'm interested in seeing how some of these hybrids and electrics do offroad and what thier range can be. The Grand Wagoneer was the...

I've got weather on my CB and my GMRS radios. I'd like to get my hands on an older radio that has air traffic, weather, AM, and FM and all that. NOAA weather should be standard on ALL Jepp Wranglers, Subaru Cross Treks, Colorado ZR2, the new Ford Bronco and the like. Vehicles marketed as...

I dont know how married you are to that rack in particular but I few things come to mind: 1) are you sure it's not the shovel causing all that noise? 2) any holes will make noise 3) try the much- mentioned wind fairing 4) Trac Rac (now owned by Thule). They do pickup racks, van racks, and racks...

Unfortunately I have experienced times when my camera became totally washed out by sunlight. So I still make sure to back up the old fashioned ways -either just using mirrors or twisting around with my hand on the passenger seat. However, I have gotten used to using the back up camera IN...

I dont have a Toyota. But I do have Bilstien 5100's on my 2014 GMC Sierra z71. I took off the old Ranchos and put the Bilsteins on top bracket. What a difference! Unfortunately I've only had them on a few months. But in those few months I've done quite a bit of driving, including driving the...

I cant see purchasing a truck at that price, never mind taking it offroad. Used vehicle buyer right here. I have purchased ONE new car. A 2006 Hinda Civic Si. It was a good solid purchase and did me well for what I needed. 3 years later i sold it. I went to a Chevy dealer last year because the...

I cant speak to Mossberg's quality beyond what I've owned, and those have been 59's and 60's era stuff. My buddy has a Maverick and he likes it. Seems Ok, though I've never shot it or field stripped it. If the quality has been that bad since the 80's, I'm surprised they are still in business...

You might be mistaken on some details here. Mossberg is still run by the Mossberg family. Remmington has been bought and sold numerous times in its history. Thier Nylon 66 .22 caliber (one of which I happily own and shot a lot in my younger days) was actually a joint venture with DuPont, who...

Just picked up a 1957 or 58 Mossberg 342 .22 cal with pan sights. It's a rather nice piece, and was not expensive. I think most people figure Mossberg for shotguns or old .22 pistols but some of the rest of their stuff, while perhaps nothing to write home about, is very practical and servicable.

My Mossberg is a pre 1968 (no serial number). I'm very happy with the quality. My best buddy's got a newer Remmington 870 and it is also nice. Cant speak much to the newer Mossbergs, but the Maverick line is theirs. Same stuff, just made in Texas instead of Connecticut.

At the moment, I myself am using L'il Will Wilson mag mount antenna. I just dont want to drill into the roof. Thought about an under-hood mount but have not purchased or executed that yet.
