The old Challenger is a long time project. Bought it 20 years ago and tinkered now and then, about a year and a half ago I finally got motivated (and in a good enough spot financially) to finish her up. Both quarters replaced, rear frame rails, and full paint and body, black leather wrapped...

The oil filter is easy to change on these trucks. Extremely simple. The easiest and simplest and quickest and cleanest of most of the vehicles I've owned, which is many.

Uhhhhh, I've got a 4x4 and I have zero problems changing my oil or filter. Not sure what the problem is. Spin off the filter, little dab of oil on the seal, spin on the new filter. I have yet to get any on my driveway or the wiring or anything else. Exceedingly simple job. It takes me...

A 500hp 440 72 one. :D I'm kind of off the hunt now, since I can't option out a new one the way I want it. I'll probably look at used market stuff a little and just live with the tiny bed for now. Too busy trying to get house and property projects done before winter kicks off again to go car...

It's less about the mileage than it is about the long bed and the distance I can go between fill ups. The Rebel is fun, but I have no need for it, and having the short bed has been a problem dozens of times in the 18 months I've owned it. I normally get around 17mpg with everyday driving. I...

Yep, that was the problem. Mark Dodge rep emailed me back today saying that long bed, 33 gallon tank, CC, and 3.6 wasn't an option. Kind of kills all the things I wanted to do. Big cab required for 33 gallon tank, but then the 3.6 isn't available. I want a longer bed than my Rebel, AND a 33...

I've currently got a 2021 Rebel with ~32k miles and the truck is great. My complaints about it are minor, and mostly about the small bed size and small fuel tank. No problems or issues at all so far. I've got an old Challenger for a hot rod, and the places I go offroad don't particularly need...

That it's completely stock and gets used off road. :oops::D

I've been doing lots of highway driving lately, getting a pretty consistent hand calculated 16-17mpg in my all stock '21. Hauled a not-overly-heavy trailer several hundred miles at ~70mph and got 13.

I caught two the very first night. Haven't caught one since. While cleaning it out, I found what I think was a bag of trail mix that the girlfriend had put in a ziploc bag and left in the center console. There was no bag left, but a large handful of nuts and raisins and m&ms... Back seat I...

...and going to be doing the bucket trap for the garage and by the chicken coop. Been meaning to do that for months, this will finally get me motivated to do it.

Killed two in traps on the flooboard the first night, haven't seen one since. Hopefully that's the end of it. I'll keep baiting the traps every day just in case.

Time for a pet coyote then!

It may have sat for 2 days? I drive it pretty frequent. 22,000 miles in the first year of owning it. I'll dig around and see if I can find any way they're getting inside. Less concerned with in the cab than eating wires in the engine compartment though. Electrical gremlins are a nightmare.

Yesterday I noticed some chewed up paper in my center console, and had a Service Auto Start/Stop error when I started the truck. Put a couple of traps on the floorboard overnight, caught mice in each of them. Hopefully there's no more, and hopefully the error isn't from a chewed wire. Are...

I've had them on my work trucks for several years and hate them. They slip and slide, I've blown out sidewalls, and they don't last at all...but it's what they buy for the work trucks so I'm stuck with them. When the Duras on my personal truck wear out, I'll never put another set on it again.

I've got a '21 Rebel and the short bed is one of the two things I don't like about it. The other being the tiny fuel tank. 23 gallons is silly. It didn't bother me until I left for a couple week long hunting trip and couldn't fit my normal gear in it. Guess that's what happens when I go from...

I just got back from a 1600 mile round trip hunting trip, where about 100 miles of it was low speed 4x4 gravel and rock roads. Loaded heavy enough that the rear squatted a bit, but not super heavy, and highway speeds of between 65-78mph, and elevation changes from sea level to 6000 ft. Hand...

Man, I like that color a lot.

I just got back from a ~1,200 mile road trip from outside of Sacramento, CA to near Pendleton, OR. Several mountain passes of 3, 4, 6k feet for elevation changes, and probably 1,000 lbs of gear in the bed and two people in the truck, with the back seat full of camping gear. 87 octane fuel, 21...
