    New ford bronco capabilities. Is jeep in big trouble?

    The rubi with a 2" lift and 35's is about a quarter of the cost of a sasquatch package with dings in at 7k Candian. Yeah. jeep has NOTHING to worry about. 1000 for a 2" lift from a reputable company and 2000 for 37's and you are in less than half of a tire and wheel package from Ford. Ford...

    Anyone on the rivian pre order list?

    thats what I just said the only drawback is range and charging. No gear oil it's electric motors on each wheel. There maybe steering fluids but thats not somehitng that is changed on a regular basis. The 4xe is the great combination of tech. You have electric for scooting around town and...

    Anyone on the rivian pre order list?

    I am super excited about PHEV and full EV vehicles. The benefits far outweigh the drawbacks. I would love to see jeep make a full compact EV Suv.

    “ FordLanders “ Ford Overland Vehicles & their Mods.

    We miss our 08 F150. We had an XTR 4 door. Perfect size truck. I would have to goto the states to get a good example of one now since everything up here is rusted to dust. She only left us stranded once when the fuel sending unit under the truck rusted out.

    What is your go too overlanding photography kit/setup? What is in your Camera bag?

    We use only point and shoot/super zoom cameras for the reasons mentioned above. We want lightweight, easy to carry gear. Lenses are a pain to lug around. Right now, we are using a fujifilm X-S1 and x10. I am using a Panasonic FZ2500 in a video rig for our video shooting. I also have a sony...

    What is your favorite overland/camp stove?

    I love coleman products, but I could not pass up the deal I got on my Martin 2 burner propane stove. I carry a small 5lb tank that fits almost anywhere. It' will last us a week of cook time and it's a compact tidy package.

    None really. The pro has better shocks and tires, but that's easily remedied with aftermzrket stuff.

    2020 Ford Bronco.

    I am guessing he was talking about the bronco sport. The big bronco is aimed at anything but. I priced a black diamond with only the squatch package and dual roof package and it is 72K cdn. Thats NUTS. I can get the tried and proven rubicon unlimited with all the bells and whistles for 67k...

    The 1500 series suburban with the 5.3L motor gets great milage. I was very surprised with how good it was on gas. I have to stop talking about it because I am going to have to find one.!

    Goodyear to buy Cooper Tires

    Agreed beagle. I made the mistake of putting on an MT on my JK this season. I should have bought the Falkens or general AT-X in the beginning. According to what I have been reading both come in C load range which is what my next set of tires will be. On the Patriot the falken trails will be...

    Goodyear to buy Cooper Tires

    They are just getting setup for when they have goodyear quality in them. If you get my drift. Every set of good year tires I have owned were terrible. We are going with 2 sets of falkens on our rigs this spring when the winter tires come off. They will be used all year long and replaced when...

    Overlanding with a large family

    I love the surburban too. I miss my POS every day. More so in the winter when it had the sno pro attached. My JK with dinky plow is no where near as good for my property. I will have another when I find a 2005 Z71 in great condition for a decent price. Mine was neglected for a few years as...
