Always a good idea to plan out your itinerary, at least to some extent. I tend to be too spontaneous. Here's something from NPS: if you scroll down a bit, it gives you an idea of when the flowers show up, which ones, and where. With all the rain, you might luck out and get a superbloom...
It could be because that officer, his superior, or his L.E. agency has a ticket quota. It's morally wrong to raise money by enforcing laws, but it's done, and is, I believe, increasing--especially in jurisdictions of a particular political governance. (Can't say more--censorship, you know. I'll...
I think they hired the same "artist" who did that modern um..."sculpture" that Boston bought 💩
I think GM's going after the virtue-signaling soi-boi market.
Yes. Good timing--we've had a week and a half of heavy rains in mid-New England.
I didn't need any adapter for my Badlands wiper arm. Getting the OEM off was a bit tricky, as it was jammed on very tight. the Bosch Icon snapped on with a bit of reluctance--snug fit. But they're on okay, and a...
Yes! This!
Ethanol has been one of the biggest cons this country ever suffered. It was proposed during the OPEC-initiated gas crisis of the late 1970s, "seemed to make sense at the time," and was sold to (or foisted upon) the public. We now know that it is an inferior fuel and harmful to many...
It's a great first experience trail. No obstacles, but you learn that you have to pay attention to how you're positioning your wheels in several spots. Well traveled in case you encounter a problem or break down. Also good for vehicles without lift or lockers. My suggestion to the OP was to sign...
Looks good.
If you're buying, look into the load it can carry.
Also consider whether you'll carry specialty items (bikes, skis/snowboards, kayaks?) and whether you can get gear to accommodate them.
I wonder: are additional crossbars available?
Great! Pride of ownership is a legitimate emotion. But you'll notice that very few of them actually go off-road. In time, you'll learn little signs which indicate mall-crawler as opposed to rock-crawler. So, continuing my thoughts from the Moab thread, connect with other off-roaders (yeah, there...
Why does every how-to (and so many other!) videos inflict such horrid "music" backdrop to the narration? To think somebody gets paid to manufacture it.
I'll second KirchTX's post above: Take the OffRoadeo course: sign up for the Moab campus if at all possible, but they're all good. Schedule at least a few days for trail exploration yourself, maybe even a week (!!). Start with (1) Hurrah Pass trail, which is a few miles of easy trail which...
Three months eleven days to my one-year anniversary, and I feel like a high school kid with his first girlfriend. (Or maybe, wheels?)
Do you bring the subject of your Bronco up when the conversation has nothing to do with vehicles? Do you step outside just to look at it when you're not planning...
Finally installed my Bosch Icon blades. We've had over a week of heavy rain, with a bit of slush snow, so they've had a job to do. Disappointing. One (on the right) clears very nicely, but the other shudders a little bit on low-to-medium rain, leaving a brief liquid film. It doesn't impede my...
