    Floor Jack recommendations

    I use a 3 ton long chassis Hein-Werner. Bought it about 5 years ago because I wanted a jack that could reach all the way to the rear differential on my F-450 motorhome and still be able to actually operate the jack plus it's made in the USA. At about 150 lbs, it's a beast and a bit pricey at...

    Diesel vs 6.4?

    12,000 lbs dry weight + passengers, gear, water, propane, fuel..... Overall the diesel will be a much nicer towing experience with engine RPM's staying much lower when towing. The gasser will be fantastic when tooling around town but once you hook up 14,000 lbs behind it, you'll know it. Pick...

    Some Real World MPG Numbers

    Once a week I make a 360 mile round trip from Central Ca to So Cal via Interstate 5 which encompasses the Grapevine; 40 mile stretch entailing a 5 mile section of 6% grade and 35 miles of hills / valleys. Overall it's a 70 mph journey and I've been getting 20.1 - 20.3 mpg according to the...

    Are the led healights worth the $1,000 upgrade cost?

    I went through the same angst re; halogen v. LED and in the end I just couldn't justify the extra grand to upgrade to LED. I've never had a vehicle with LED so I really don't know what I'm missing I guess but the factory halogens work just fine in my opinion. I've never been driving and thought...

    Gas Mileage after first 1160 miles of driving truck... Sucks!

    For what it's worth I think your mileage will improve as the odometer clicks along. I had mileage in the low 14's for about the first 1,500+/- miles. I've never reset the mileage thing and now at just about 3,000 miles on it my collective average is 20.3 per the computer.

    You're looking at just over a 1" difference in diameter so just a hair over a 1/2" in height.

    They must've changed things as my MY '21 Bighorn heats at the 6 o'clock position.

    Need tire recommendations

    Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo 3 is a great 4 season tire with very little road noise. The Michelin Defender LTX MS is a superb tire as well however it is unlikely to be of much use in the snow.

    Yes another Side Step question

    I've had many trucks with all sorts of running boards / side steps / nerf bars / rock sliders etc... and for what it's worth nothing beats the AMP Research. Nice wide, level, full length platform for the Mrs and when they retract you won't even know they are there.
