Don't try to park at the Prudential Center or any of the attached hotels while you're in Boston, they have a posted clearance of 6' 0". Made that mistake recently while I was running late for a nearby concert. And if you park at the Charles Hotel in Cambridge, that 7' posted clearance is only...
Looking at some Class IV roads up in Vermont for a long weekend in April. Anybody out there with experience on Woodbury Mountain or Belvidere Mountain road? I'm in a JTR on 35s and my buddy has a 4Runner on 31s, so looking for moderate thrills, I guess.
I went back to my order to see the options I chose:
So I got the smooth texture, but it's... not that smooth. If that's important to you, you might be disappointed. It feels good in the hand, and the buttons have a nice raised, tactile feel, so it's easy to hit lock or unlock by feel. There's...
I am generally pro-EV, but sometimes it seems like Tesla fans have brain worms. Imagine seeing an alleged off-road vehicle completely fail to articulate on an RTI ramp, and claiming it as a win.
The last step after I finally mounted up my Badlands winch last weekend was figuring out what to do with the cutoff switch. This little bracket from CenterAK is designed to fit the most logical spot for the switch. It reuses a factory bolt and includes the other one. Perfect fit, arrived by...
I wouldn't build my recovery kit around dowels, but I have used a framing hammer and this technique to link a couple of snatch straps together with my old K5.
I would say to start by making sure your vehicle has solid, frame-tied recovery points at both ends, then get a decent snatch strap or...
I'm going camping on a friend's land near Squam next weekend. Browsing around, I saw Mountain/Old Mountain Rd and Beede Rd, heading over towards Plymouth. Anyone know if they're worth running, or if there are other trails nearby?
Not the best map, but the roads in green are the ones I'm curious...
I just got my Threedom M+ fob, and I love how much smaller and lighter it is in my pocket. However, I don't love how loudly it rattles against my other keys and pocket knife. Has anyone creatively inserted felt or rubber or something into their Threedom fob to fill some of the voids and make it...
I average 12-14 mpg, and the corner store is charging $3.80 per gallon for regular, so I would welcome a full-EV JTR, as long as they don't nerf the off-road capability.
It's a mixed bag. I've had three Subarus, and my family has owned them back to the early 80s. My first Impreza had a lot of issues with the front suspension and premature rust, but my second Impreza and my WRX never needed more than basic maintenance. Even going back to the early days, my dad...
The lowest point on the Ford units sold is still higher than the highest point for Jeep. (Though Ford is way more of a diversified brand, and a chart for all of FCA/Stellantis/Chrysler would look better.)
