Article says to wear white to symbolize "Snowflakes"   I'm not sure how receptive those groups will be to wearing white hoodies....seems like an oxymoron, but will definitely confuse any Alt right counter protesters.

Two hour delayed opening at my work and Murray County schools are closed. Backroads were a little slippery. A little common sense when driving and it was no big deal.  I don't have to get near I75 for work.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180108/e8ef9e56d300bb3317e8ae4f8ca81b58.jpg)

I bought one of these "car jump start battery packs" for my wife's Yukon last January.  I charged it when it came and stuck it in with the jumper cables and stuff. 

This weekend we went skiiing, and I left the keys in the ignition.  By the time we got back to the car the battery was drained.  I could have flagged someone down for a jump, but I remembered we had the battery pack.  I was skeptical that a) it would be charged after sitting literally for 12 months and b) that it would really have the amps needed to turn over the 6.0L LS. 

I attached it to the battery, waited maybe 30 seconds, and the damn thing started on the first try...

The status lights indicated it was probably half charged, so I charged it up the rest of the way on the ride home with the cigarette lighter adapter.  Very impressed with this thing!

I don't have that model but do have a jumper box. Has 3 usb chargers in it as well. I take it on trips as my wifes sub went dead one time in the mountains and had to jump it. Worth the money.

Here's ya one. $#+$ing idiot tow driver dropped this one after hours last night. Obviously had plenty of room to park it on either side see we could still get in the gate. Tow company owner blamed it on me for not having a drop box for keys, not that it would have helped his driver unload it in the right place. Had to drag it far enough to one side with the Cummins to let folks drive by.

The amount of controversy those videos create in the forum community is incredible.  I saw a bunch of those discussions when I owned a tundra and participated in the tundra forums, and the same "test" was performed on my version of the Tundra (same results).

The reality is very few people ever go that fast over such an obstacle. 

It may be true that a Ford, Chevy, and Ram wouldn't even cause a stir (picture the old Lexus commercials with the pyramid of champaign glasses), but in reality the Ford would be broken down on the side of the road before it could try such a harsh environment, a Chevy owner wouldn't do that because he'd have to replace the steering immediately afterwards, and a Ram would be in the shop getting a few recalls addressed.

Does Nissan even sell trucks anymore???

Just replaced the windshield in the Jeep. Old windshield (optic armor lexan) was completely delaminating making what appeared to be white overspray all over the windshield making it very hard to see in sunlight. So called a company to do the mobil replacement. Quoted me $186 to do the job. Got a call the next day from the agent and she told me I would need new trim molding for the job. Told her I just had a the windshield replaced about 2 years ago so no need. She told me they would not do the job unless new molding was used. So I agreed to just get it done at an extra $45 charge. I worked while the guy replaced the window in the warehouse. He came in and had me sign the papers and off he went. I walked back to check it out and the dude did not even use the new molding [wtf] not his fault as he was contracted out. So I called the company to get reimbursed and indeed they are going to, but just goes to show you always need to check the work done on your vehicles. $45 may not seem like a ton to some but it is to me.  [oldskool]

Depends if they had any where to go like a shelter, and any means of transportation, money, etc.  If they were able, I'm with you.  If they weren't able and couldn't and asked for help from local authorities but didn't receive it, not so much.  It just depends on the circumstances.

One of the people I follow on You Tube is Jake Wettern. His Bio states "My name is Jake Wettern and I live in my Jeep Wrangler "Jade."  My dog Annie and I are currently traveling in Jade on a 50 state road trip documenting almost every aspect of the adventure. Every day has its own story, these are my stories."

He started in the Mid-West and now I believe he's in Massachusetts. He shares his life experiences, creates "Jamborees" where people can meet up to camp and wheel. He's prior military and seems like a great guy all around. He also accepts Patreon pledges to help him with his journey. I have been in conversation with him over the past few months anticipating his trip to Georgia. He may not arrive until after the New Year but I would like to gauge an interest in possibly our group forming an....event, meet and greet, Jamboree, just something. He also collects food for families in need and has those items delivered to local charities. I will provide a link below to one of his videos so you can check him out.

Thanks in advance for any ideas or support you can provide.

Copy and paste, plus some editing to shorten it up. These numbers are world-wide

Credit Suisse defines net worth, or "wealth," as "the value of financial assets plus real assets (principally housing) owned by households, minus their debts."

Needed to be in the one percent: $871,320. More than 19 million Americans are in the 1 percent worldwide, Credit Suisse reports, far more than from any other country, while "China is now clearly established in second place in the world wealth hierarchy," with 4.2 million citizens among the world's top 1 percent.

To be among the top 10 percent worldwide, you don't even need six figures: A net worth of $93,170 will do it.

And even if you have just $4,210 to your name, you're still richer than half of the world's residents.

From a statistician perspective i despise these kinds of numbers though.  $800k in parts of the world is more than you can spend in a lifetime and would allow you to run around with new toyotas and gold plated AKs.  $800k in New York barely buys a closet with a refrigerator.

I don’t mean to beat up the messenger but I think it’s #fakenews.  Taking just the amount simply doesn’t translate.

Copy and paste, plus some editing to shorten it up. These numbers are world-wide

Credit Suisse defines net worth, or "wealth," as "the value of financial assets plus real assets (principally housing) owned by households, minus their debts."

Needed to be in the one percent: $871,320. More than 19 million Americans are in the 1 percent worldwide, Credit Suisse reports, far more than from any other country, while "China is now clearly established in second place in the world wealth hierarchy," with 4.2 million citizens among the world's top 1 percent.

To be among the top 10 percent worldwide, you don't even need six figures: A net worth of $93,170 will do it.

And even if you have just $4,210 to your name, you're still richer than half of the world's residents.

From a statistician perspective i despise these kinds of numbers though.  $800k in parts of the world is more than you can spend in a lifetime and would allow you to run around with new toyotas and gold plated AKs.  $800k in New York barely buys a closet with a refrigerator.

Last month, a press release for this year’s LA Auto Show mentioned the reveal of “a pickup truck from Jeep,” so we’ll know at the end of this month if the forum source is right about the name.

Either Scrambler or Gladiator or whatever, Jeep is going to sell so many of these things. They could have called it the Fumbler and people would still be lining up to trade their 2017 regular Wranglers in for it.

That’s actually not at all how it will look lol. Before I left the car business I got to see pictures of a final production version of those and it’s going to be a very very very segment changing vehicle. The midsize truck segment will be shaken up quite badly by the Gladiator. No other midsized truck offers solid front and rear axles and removal doors/top lol

That ain’t it. I’ve been following this pretty closely since the beginning of 2018. I was debating on waiting out or getting the JL....  I have no patience.

Anyways, the JT essentially looks like a JL with a bed. It is officially being revealed at the LA Auto Show on Nov. 28th and is expected to hit dealerships April 2019. Probably will have a composite bed like a Tacoma and aluminum everything else like the JLs. A lot is still speculation but we will know on the 28th.

What’s not to love about it?  How about the price tag?  Rubicon diesel I’ll bet will be close to $60k.  Who cares about solid axles on the road? Insanity.  Chevy Colorado, top of the line 4WD short box w/diesel, 7700lbs (50lbs more) towing and 1521 payload (80lb less) - $47k.

It’s a gimmick vehicle but will sell like hot cakes I’m sure.  Just don’t see anyone that cares anything about owning a truck buying one.  From a coolness factor, I’ll stand by my Raptor comment.  At least there is performance there.

Dodge has solid axles, fords have solid axles.

And the jeep will having factory locking differentials and a removable top. But it's not a real truck because these options will cost more money? Lol

It looks awful with the top on, so I agree that top off wouldn’t be any better.  I know it’s subjective, but I’m not a fan.

I like it with the top on, and it's even better topless.  I might get one of these, someday.  Price will affect my decision, of course.  $60k would be too much.

I’d buy a Raptor any day over that non-functional “thing”.
A convertible Raptor?   

Convertible is a stretch.  Thought we were talking TRUCKS.  Oh wait, the Gladiator doesn’t make the grade there.

It's the same size as most midsize trucks, and with a higher payload. Why, in your opinion, is this midsize truck not really a truck?

That’s what I can’t figure out. Better payload then any other midsize truck, diesel option, removable doors, removable top, solid axles, locking diffs, etc. what’s not to love about it?

What’s not to love about it?  How about the price tag?  Rubicon diesel I’ll bet will be close to $60k.  Who cares about solid axles on the road? Insanity.  Chevy Colorado, top of the line 4WD short box w/diesel, 7700lbs (50lbs more) towing and 1521 payload (80lb less) - $47k.

It’s a gimmick vehicle but will sell like hot cakes I’m sure.  Just don’t see anyone that cares anything about owning a truck buying one.  From a coolness factor, I’ll stand by my Raptor comment.  At least there is performance there.


Dodge has solid axles, fords have solid axles.

And the jeep will having factory locking differentials and a removable top. But it's not a real truck because these options will cost more money? Lol

So you’ll be the first in line to buy one, right?  After all, what other options are out there for $60k trucks.

I guess I don’t get your point. I fail to see how it’s a gimmick. Jeep has had multiple trucks over the years based off existing models. The scrambler was based off the CJ, the J10 was based off the FSJ Waggy, and the Comanche was based off the XJ. Those were all considered cool and still are.

What makes a wrangler based pickup a gimmick and not cool like the others? Because it’s modern and has modern features which will dictate a modern price tag?? Or is it because it’s a modern Jeep and the “Jeep” thing to do seems to be dislike anything new that Jeep makes simply because it’s not 30 years old with a straight 6 and leaf springs?The other vehicles I mentioned had all the features that were popular and modern at their time so again how is this different?

This seems to happen every time Jeep has a new model come out. People say it isn’t cool or isn’t capable because you have a screen you can touch. I didn’t realize that a Jeep had to be old and uncomfortable to be a true/cool/capable Jeep

CJ8, not a truck.  Comanche, El Caminoish. 

It has nothing to do with it being new, old, etc.  I embrace technology and think the JL is great vehicle.  The JK and now the JL are the most capable out of the box Jeeps ever made. 

Some people actually like the Pontiac Aztec.  To each their own.  Carry on the drooling session with the Gladiator.

Only 2500+.  1500s are IFS.  Midsize Ford has been/will be IFS.

The fast lane did a video on YouTube with one of the designers. He straight up said they used the same door as the JL to make it “modular” (save $$). He definitely got caught like a deer in headlights with that question.

I wouldn’t buy it - but a shit ton of other people will. It has a cool factor and it’ll be good enough for Home Depot runs that guys can convince the wife it’s practical. They’re going to crush sales numbers with this thing

You can’t really compare the H3T to the JT. Inline 5 (although a V6 and V8 was optional) leaf sprung rear, IFS front with torsion beams, cheap plastic mid-2000s GM interior....The H3T was hated because it truly was a god awful vehicle in almost every sense lol. The JT is not god awful.

Comparing that to a V6 and V6 turbo diesel, coil sprung, solid front and rear axles, etc doesn’t seem fair.

Well it will be using the same 3.0L EcoDiesel/8 Speed combo that the Grand Cherokee has been using for years. And it proved to be a real good combo. Low end torque was amazing and the MPGs were astounding. I sold a couple of them in my time and my customers were talking about 30+ on the highway for MPG figures. It’s a proven combo in the Ram 1500 as well. Dieselgate kind of ruined that run though because the EPA put a stop sell on them so they could “re-certify” them due to the VW/Audi scandal.

I also have two friends who’s GC diesel stopped starting due to electrical issues somewhere they could never figure out and another friend who had a lemon law ram 1500 diesel in NC.  He had all kind of issues so, I’ll hold off to see how the JL/JT diesel fares over the first year.  As well, like you said they are still working on emissions and @clark123456 can tell you all about how fun diesel emissions is.

Interesting. I’d be interested to know what the issue with them was, because I’ve never heard of anybody having serious problems with one. The only time I’ve ever seen one in the shop was because the husband bought it for the wife and first fill up she put regular gas in the thing.....

I have no issue with a Jeep with a bed, but this one is all wrong for several reasons. It turned out looking like a pile of leftover parts, and sorry, but ya its pretty much a H3T with different fender flares.

Just finished a side project that took about a month to complete. This was a first time for me for taking apart an engine, luckily I didn’t have to put it back together.

It was a Dodge Viper SRT10 engine that my friend blew a rod and shot it through the cylinder wall. I helped him swap it out and I told him it'd be cool to turn his blown one in to a table. Next thing I know he offers the block with everything in it to me for free as long as I can get it out of his garage.

I sold quite a few of the internals on eBay and spent some time cleaning the block.
Found a decent piece of glass at a thrift store and for $72 I've got a pretty sweet coffee table.

It was a Dodge Viper SRT10 engine that my friend blew a rod and shot it through the cylinder wall. I helped him swap it out and I told him it'd be cool to turn his blown one in to a table. Next thing I know he offers the block with everything in it to me for free as long as I can get it out of his garage.

I sold quite a few of the internals on eBay and spent some time cleaning the block.
Found a decent piece of glass at a thrift store and for $72 I've got a pretty sweet coffee table.


i sold the small block one i built for $500 btw... get some battery powered color changing leds and throw in it, they look cool af

Thanks! How did you do your lighting? LED strips? Battery powered? Or did you run a wire to an outlet?

just elcheapo battery powered rgbs off amazon, threw them in the cam tunnels. cool project, turned out nice!

Kell wants to know if you'll make one for our den, or sell that one to us.

I might have to start taking orders. Id be willing to make more.

the Gladiator is growing on me.  It really does look like a cool vehicle.  I don't see me buying one to put tons and 40's on it to wheel balls but some folks will I'm sure.  I also don't see me buying one to serve as a truck because it can't tow what I need. 

But, it's still a cool vehicle. I bet the sell a ton of them.

Yokohama sent me an updated price sheet this morning and I swear it looks like a Goodyear Duratrac, Cooper STT Pro, and KM2. Glad to see so much competition in the tire market though. That only makes better tires in the end.

I hadn't heard that litigation info about Yokohama.
I woulda thought Cooper suing Yokohama would have been much bigger news than the silence of such a lawsuit. wierd.

regarding the current yokos , I won't probably ever convince anybody it seems , but that tire in the middle - the G003 Geolander - is what I'm in 2nd year of and I love them.
 There's another Jeep in the club that's just breaking in a set of the Xtreme MTs  I cant really speak to high road mileage (having no more than maybe 3000 on asphalt on my set) I wouldn't want to DD such great tread 'til its rubbed flat all over I-24 , personally. However, they are a radial.
Important to me , they drive great at 28psi to local parks like Wooly's or AOP and crawl like they are part flypaper down at 8psi.
it's sidewalls are thicker in critical areas  + the deep sidewall lugs provide crazy hang points.
before my final deci$ion on which new tires were for me ,  I watched & talked on social media w/ Tony Pellegrino's son, JP , who ran the comp compound G003s for all of the 2018 season. He finished the whole KoH race on a single set of Yokohama G003s.  The post race photos are crazy ...just my .02 cents

I never thought about it but I suppose they did a little. The Geolanders were a bit less busy except for the weird sidewall pattern. They also were not siped, iirc. They also did not have as sharp a lug shape, everything being squarish. (https://i.imgur.com/utyC1BE.png) . I always hated that plaid-looking sidewall on the old Geolanders. that picture is funny because the old yoko's look to be mounted on a Mickey Thompson wheel there, heh...
..but they look like that and the ProComp Xtreme MT ( because those were the same company and carcass) , yeah. I think MIckey T /Cooper just got miffed that Yokohama was selling them in 38" and they sold like hotcakes

 None of these are made any longer I don't think. Geez, it sure highlights how far tires have progressed in the past 10 years.

Skaticon?

wheel ( polyurethane) formula tech , board molding refinements and alloys are bringing the two things I am all about closer together ( crawling and longboard downhilll ) ...

Now, this vid is more skating vs longboard ,but companies do now sell ATV longboards + it incorporates a lot of the sliding style  like my less demanding , longboard freeride uses.

I wouldn't ever condone what is going down in vid w/out full helmet , armor, etc. (plus I'm too old to put my knees thru this kind of abuse) , but thought this would be interesting #Whatever post , since we all have playing on rocks in common.

( it's audio is damaged & it's  kinda snowflakey, selfinvolved  cheesy production so just skip to - check out the rocks parts)

Sad seeing a guy engage in bad/risky behavior multiple times, and then it finally catching up to him.

But then it's weird seeing it not only defended, but a go fund me set up to "reward" his decision and help him escape his debts.

And then its super weird having a former forum member block me from a conversation/fundraising post on facebook after I simply hashed out what the INJURED PERSON actually said and being accused of spreading rumors...

I too believed that one dude wrecked while driving at KOH, and I saw plenty of posts about him almost famously not wearing safety gear.

I thought I'd seen the penultimate of entitlement but apparently not.
This mentality is beyond wrong.
he interupted everybody's koh time , by being a moron , and then has the ego-gall to actually support a public begging to pay his household bills because he was between insurance & openly declared that he shunned safety regulations that everyone is required to wear WHILE drinking and driving.

yeah, his Jeep should be called Titan , alright.
 Titan-douche.

I guess we were wrong to not setup a GoFundMe for the kids that broke into AOP last spring , ran up the buggy trail ,got ejected & then had to get lifeflighted off the mountain after rolling their sideXside, gang. 
Why didn't we pay their utilities ?!?!

man, this got me mad , Pat.
your comment was spot-on. you , unfortunately, interjected logic & reason into the midst of emotion & sympathy for the primary recipient of a popularity contest. People wanna "support" the cool guys blindly.

This is why guys continue to hang around that wayalife guy. He could jump off o canyon rim & the sycofantic people surrounding him  would pay for his bills & ban anyone that questioned why.

This stuff is yet another way in which way idiots are ruining  our preferred sport/recreation.

Nah. I bet hes a hypocritical conservative/libertarian that says everyone needs to take the initiative and care for themselves, but now he wants others to pay for his mistakes


But.... that said.... the GoFundMe was allegedly started by someone else. I'm not bashing the gofundme, just the fact that HE SAID the insurance funds for the jeep will rebuild the jeep, but that the fund will cover his medical bills since he doesnt have the money. And theres no such thing as between insurance companies, you're either covered and pay the premiums or you don't. He simply dropped the coverage or has failed to pay repeatedly.

That's crazy. Why anyone would donate to someone who was drinking and driving and got hurt doing so is beyond me. Let alone doing it without wearing a seat belt. Then add on top of that the balls the guy had to do it all without having health insurance.

it is a mess.

All thru this thread since I have been reading along, something continued to ring-a-bell with my poor, old memory. Keep in mind Im at new job that requires nearly all of it, then I was woring to get to wheel Fri-Sun and , well....I just couldn't place where I felt I had run into this "TITAN" jeep jku or that dudes name.
It was nagging at me so I looked up Adam Pfeifer & ...hmm...wtf...it is in my browser cache already?....he is with a company called Jensen Brothers out of SLC,Utah....wait a minute.....

*DING*
I remember this guy
= there was a thread flare-up over on jko last Fall when a new member came in and started trying to make 'helpful suggestions' to users but, some regulars kinda sized it up as the guy trying to generate business....for his ORI re-sell business.

...maybe a few GATR guys commenting in the thread :
https://www.jkowners.com/forum/modified-jk-tech-dept/385324-ori-struts-tuning-setup.html

for my part, aside from babysitting , I was simply trying to make sure rules for vendor activity were followed but it got a little odd when my fellow moderator started deleting stuff....you'll notice I backed away after the oddball new member -Jensen Bros bought a vendor star. That was my concern.
JKO is usually a weird-freak fest, but that thread was strange, even for that forum.

So, it seems disaster and chaos kinda follows the guy around, regardless of his intentions....
I guess his business ( https://jensenbrosoffroad.com/#axzz6EQMwh73z  ) success has resulted in him having such loyal followers that he feels it acceptable to take money from them.


at least I can now resume work having remembered where tf I knew that name from,  [oldskool]

That was one of the gnarliest wrecks I've seen in quite some time. It's incredible he made it out of the hospital in under two days. Goes to show how important it is to have the right equipment!

wait; this is the NASCAR driver who got flipped & impacted at 200mph on the a-pillar n race?
 I saw that clip ; holy geez, that's impressive.
I can remember wrecks such as Dale Sr's or Senna's being in seemingly less violent accidents than that one and not making it so he's testament to the advances in safety design.
seems particularly nascar guys are prepped for the inevitable.
I bet they opt for harnessing-up, lol

We never planned to stay in this house for a long time. We did a monster renovation on it and added a second story and gutted the main level.

On the bright side we got quoted 2.1% on a 15 year loan, 2.5% on a 30. That’s crazy cheap money.

Super cheap. Why the move?
We never planned to stay in this house for a long time. We did a monster renovation on it and added a second story and gutted the main level. It’s too nice for what we care about and we want a better place to store all 3 cars and the trailer without tripping all over everything. Being home all the time has just accelerated everything
Maybe time to move out to the burbs. 3 car garage and half acre......

With what bank? Were the fees bad?

I have 5 years left, paying at a 10 year payment plan but have a 15 year mortgage. Why 15 year if I pay at a 10 year level, rate was cheaper at 15 then 10.

It's also not bad to have the mandatory payment lower in case of unexpected events with jobs or health.  The amount of extra interest for a longer note, while I accelerated payments, was worth it...just in case.

Congrats...in 5 years y'all will be free.  You'll probably even beat that date as you get closer to it.

Yeah...gotta pay for schools and roads.  Your school portion should be going away soon...aren't you near retirement age?

I meant to tell you how admirable it is that you got your house paid for so quickly.  Many people will have a rent or mortgage payment most of their lives.  My mom wouldn't pay off her house, and has basically made some sort of payment for 50+ years...insanity!  She wanted to keep her taxes low, but never understood she was giving more money to the banks.

We bought a new trailer (12'x58') and lived in for 9 years
We built a 3 bedroom Ranch style house about 30 yards below
the trailer with full basement with poured walls. The basement
was framed out but not finished. 1606 sq ft both levels and a
double garage for $68k and put $30k down on it. 11 years was
the lowest they would go on a mortgage.

I’m tired of getting blasted with these ridiculous utility bills and property taxes from City of Atlanta (tax was up to 9k a year before I finally won an appeal and water is usually about $100 a month).

They added a rear frame section, small lift, 33s, etc. The steps on the back automatically drop down when you open the door.

Looking to do an engine swap on 2000 Jeep wrangler TJ.  Currently have 4.0L 6 cylinder.  From what I have read, it looks like the Gen 3 GM engines are fairly simple with the 4L60e transmission.  Looking to get more power and a transmission that has OD to be able to get better MPH on the highway.  The 32RH with 3 gears just isnt cutting it.  Have 4.56 gears with 33 tires, but looking to go 40" with a lower gears. Does anyone have any experience with engine swaps and is there a good mechanic in the Atlanta metro area that would be has experience with this. Looks like I could be selling a completely rebuilt 4.0L I6 with about 100miles on it and completely refurbished 32RH. Any help appreciated. Thanks

I'd look for a Gen 4 with a 6L80 if you plan on going to 40s. Gives you a much stronger transmission and a 4:1 first gear. Stay away from the L60s

Just for reference I sold my 4.0 for $300

I don't usually post news or anything that might advocate/instigate anything political or whtvr ...

but I've been following info updates about drones & swarm tech for a decade now . I even have little rc drones helicopters toystuff ..

these are gonna be great as the used or 'misplaced' ones eventually 'make' their way into hands of terrorist groups. Very frightening.
 I think maybe im gonna print some targets w drone outline on 'em  ...

I don’t know that anyone knows if they are stickies based ok that post, and I searched a little and don’t see any info. Nothing on the Nitto website. I would think so but ???  I don’t have an opinion on the tires either, just thought it was interesting another 42” option was out there and it does seem they have lots of sponsored guys running the 40s

You can sign up for a sponsorship on Nitto site. You may see a lot of them but probably a lot of folks are paying for them. BFG and Maxxis have similar programs.

nitto does have that tire spec at 109.7lb but even a heavy bl won't bring it to 200lb.

they're gixxer powered it sounds like ?
I would make an ez guess they likely cost 3 times what our jeeps do.

They're scandinavian so I dunno  much info other than seeing a few videos like this 

I just love tearing down potted, gravel dirt roads like this ...in anything ....& it's actually pretty difficult - logistically - to get to do, unless you know somebody who owns a farm & will let you become a 2.5 ton missile thru it .

AOP has it's little track but I'm talking 20 + miles of forest road , like entry drive for Beasley but for miles.
that's almost as fun as rocks for me .
I had / took advantage of that opportunity - on about 100 acres - for about 9 yrs,  far drive west of Nashville  until 2019 so ,

  this just stirs some latent, W.V. genetic,  inner moonshine runner in me  started or something, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That’s a lot of money to put into a Tacoma. Yea you should have at least asked her if she wants to take it wheeling.

Hahaha we originally lifted this Taco and sold/installed the bumpers, etc (it was 2wd). Then he started talking all kinds of weird stuff about wanting to put it on 40's and 24's and blah blah so he went to southern o/r lmao

We rode there about 10 years ago. Very awesome. We pretty much hit everything in about 6 hours of non stop riding. Then rode down the rode a little bit and hit Winrock and made a weekend of it.

I think it's part of the Royal Blue OHV area. Looks like a hot spot for sxs's.

Looks like it’s one of the few full size trails. Can’t find much but did find this:

Well damn the next article is about the Bison Colorado. Pretty awesome for the mid size truck game

The AEV kit includes a winch-capable heavy-duty front bumper, a rear bumper, and fender flares, which house the 17-inch beadlock wheels wrapped in massive 35-inch tires. The spare tire, which no longer fits underneath the bed, moves to the standard AEV bed-mounted carrier, which is off-center to minimize obstructing rearward visibility.

And it has front and rear locking diffs!

I saw a Nissan Frontier Pro4x today in that "battleship gray" color or whatever the hell you call it. I gotta say, it was badass! I guess I haven't been paying attention to the midsize trucks these last few years with all the Bronco/Jeep talk. I'm assuming they started pouring more money in them when the overland scene blew up

Not sure what to think here. Could be good if you only need a topper for wheeling weekends


We all own trucks because we need a vehicle that can tow things and haul stuff. Whether that stuff is heavy or light, most of the time, the weather we travel in can be a concern. Nobody likes their stuff getting wet. Thankfully, a new truck cap from a company called Flated is a way to alleviate that concern.

You are probably looking at this truck cap and thinking that the Flated Topper is just another truck-bed cover. From what I am told, it protects your stuff like a traditional truck cap would, but look a little deeper, and you’ll find it offers much more by way of versatility.

According to Hannah Pennington of Flated, “the Air-Topper is a rigid, durable lightweight option for your truck cap. We have seven sizes that are compatible with most trucks on the road. All sizes weigh under 60 pounds and are easy to self-install and require no tools or additional equipment. There are removable windows on all sides and screen windows on the sides.”

Where the Flated Topper truck cap differs, is that it is inflatable. I can hear you grumbling about that concept, but please read on. When inflated, the Topper is easily installed onto the bed of your truck by one person. There is no need to call a couple of buddies or have a lifting device to install the Flated Topper truck cap. The Topper is quickly inflated with the easy-to-use hand pump and is then slid into place onto your truck bed and securely fastened with tie-downs. No need for troublesome clamps when attaching this truck cap.

The Flated Topper is made with durable drop-stitch fabric which allows it to maintain its shape when inflated — Even if heavy objects are placed on top. The sidewalls use PVC layers specifically manufactured for superior air holding. Unlike typical PVC tarpaulin, the specialized sidewall material features internal fibers coated in liquid PVC making the layers more durable and resilient than ever before.

Unlike a traditional truck cap, when the Flated Topper is not in use, simply deflate, roll up, and store in the closet or garage. The Topper comes with a backpack to make storage simple. What’s more, the Topper weighs in at less than 60 pounds.
