I got to hang out with a twin today. My buddy picked up a Jeep with the same power plant as I.

not trying to harp on this too much but I'd love some very low displacement diesel power plant mated to a big fat lithium battery and rear wheel motors. think plug in hybrid diesel where I can run 200 miles without towing on a battery pack and have diesel + EV augmentation for long distance...

You're right. Seems like diesel is basically dead without much high output, high MPG alternative at the moment. EV / Hydrogen will eventually catch up but diesel is dead in 2023 and there is no replacement. Lightning? Rivian? Cybertruck? none of those come close.

This kind of makes me want to order a '23 Limited ED. I thought about it for only a second though. I LOVE my EcoDiesel. No major issues aside from some recalls which aren't unusual these days. I've done my first two oil changes (10 and 20K) without problems so maintenance has been very low. The...

Not too many camping days left so wife and I spent 2 days out in the woods. Just 15 miles from the house. Low last night was 32 degrees. Dog kept us warm: Camping again next weekend if the weather holds out. My friends from Quebec come down for their thanksgiving and we ride dirt bikes around...

I ordered new tires (Michelin Defender). They have the highest treadwear in the OEM size. Looking to optimize fuel economy and longevity over look or any off-road abilities. RAM looked at my truck. No charge but they pulled all codes, looked at the air suspension for uniformity and alignment...

Dropping my truck off at the dealer on Monday so I wanted to have some ammo ready. Truck has 25K miles on and 15 months of service. Hauling about 5K of that (in the bed, not towing). Tire pressure is 39 all around on OEM wheels & Tires. 2021 Limited w/ Air + 22" wheels on the stock Michelins...

I know people aren't paying this, right...

MOTOMOVR Back at it again: This bike weighs about 950 pounds fully fueled. Took it down to southern New Hampshire for a software update that would allow the retrofitted top box (off another BMW model) to work. Averaged 24 MPG even with this thing. I love the EcoDiesel.

MOTOMVR took a 500 mile drive down to PA this weekend to attend a 3 day dual sport event. Solo drive this time with just one motorcycle.

Small and fun upgrade.

Purchased and brought home a new bike in the MOTOMOVR

MOTOMOVR (license plate) moving some motorcycles around today:

Bought a fully assembled picnic table, 40 bags of mulch and a few 8' long boards:

I work in the industry and I've been a little confused about UConnect4's ETA and Routing. I've done some benchmarking with a Garmin standalone, TomTom, .Apple Maps and Google Maps and UConnect 4 and connect, on a 1000 mile trip will always have an ETA that's 1 hour more than every other company...

Throw the VIN number on Vroom / Carmax and see what they offer for it. If it's more than the buyout...keep it and keep track of the resale value. If resale ever dips below what you're comfortable with, sell it. You'll likely make money on purchasing it even if you sell it within 12 months.

hands off the steering wheel too? LOL

not if I'm trying to optimize MPGs. if I have cruise set at 55, It will brake down hill and downshift to 5th gear going up them which destroys MPG.

Yep, here's the chart of the last few fill ups: Around town, I average 24 MPG but hauling 1000 pounds of motorcycles for 2200 miles, we got 19-21 MPG. But on my recent 500 mile drive to and from Watertown NY from New Hampshire, I took only back roads because it was a nice weekend and I just...

PASSED 20,000 MILES!
