Cooper Discover AT3

Well my Toyo A/T II’s made it about 32,000 miles so I decided to change things up. I haven’t had a set of Coopers since high school.

Any thoughts on the Cooper Discover AT3?

Toyo Open Country R/T vs Open Country A/T II

So my Toyo A/T II's are about shot (32,000 freaking miles, we'll see how they honor the 50,000 mile warranty). I like the 285/75/17 that both tires come in, so I plan on sticking with that size. Has anybody had the R/T as well as the A/T II? I'm just wondering how they stack up? Most of my miles are...

Re: 04Ram2500Hemi's Build - 2012 Power Wagon

After fighting with rock chips and crappy touch up paint, I decided to throw a little Line-X on the hood of the truck. I like how it ties in with the front grill, bumper, and fender flares being coated with Line-X.

Re: Bought a 2019 Chevy Colorado ZR2

I’ve spent the last three days in the wife’s ZR2, and I have to say, I really like this thing. It’s fairly zippy (I’d take an extra 100hp), the seats are pretty comfy, and it rides pretty well. I’m not saying it’s something I’d trade a Power Wagon for, but these really are pretty nice little trucks....

Split Personality Tailgate

So I had a chance to see the new Ram tailgate. As per the sticker it’s a $1,000 option. I like this much better than the GMC Tailgate. I’m not sure I loved the $60,000 sticker on the new Rebel, but it was a nice truck.

Re: Ford Tremor

So for fun I jumped on Ford.com and built a 2019 Super Duty that would be similar to a loaded 2019 Power Wagon. I wonder how much more the Tremor Package would add to this?

Re: Ford Tremor

Let's call the Tremor Package what it is, and upgraded off road package by Ford. For 90% of the folks out there this is going to be a great upgrade, especially if you have to have a diesel. It's not a direct competitor to the Power Wagon, but I think what it brings to the place will make Ram take a ...

Re: Ford Tremor.......

To me the Tremor is a nice off-road package offered by Ford. Not a Power Wagon, but it makes a lot of sense for 90% of the truck owners out there.

Re: Bought a 2019 Chevy Colorado ZR2

The wife actually let me drive her truck last night, and after 100 miles of town, two lane highway, and interstate driving I have a few more thoughts: - The seats are a little more firm than I would like, but they aren’t rock hard. - I wish the seat cushion was a little longer. At 6’8” I prefer the ...

Re: Bought a 2019 Chevy Colorado ZR2

Spent a couple hours in the ZR2 today (mostly as a passenger). A few thoughts come to mind: -Seats are comfortable -Plenty of leg room in the front seat for tall people -The gas peddle seams a little heavy -Steering wheel is tight and responsive -The suspension soaks up bumps really nicely -The V6 h...

Can you even get in that little mini jobby? You cant even fit in a full size ‘19 Ram pickup LOL. Bet the wifie is stoked! The ZR2 actually has more room in the front seat than I thought it would. Because the steering wheel telescopes I can pull it closer to me and it's not in the way of my right kn...

Bought a 2019 Chevy Colorado ZR2

My wife decided she was done having a boring and practical vehicle, so we said goodbye to her 2009 Honda Pilot and said hello to the 2019 Chevy Colorado ZR2 in Crush Orange and the V6 motor. I think it will go nicely with my 2012 Power Wagon. I’ve yet to drive it, so for now here’s a few pics. When ...

Re: ZR2 diesel test drive & test tow

I wouldn’t give up my Power Wagon for a ZR2, but I might be adding one to the fleet soon. My wife drove one with the gas motor this weekend and loved it. I’m excited to have it parked in the stable with my truck. I understand why Twin made the swap, and hopefully he’s happy.
