Tried to deal with Medved twice. Once in 2002 then another in 2012. Felt like I needed a shower after both instances. Swore I would never again. FWIW.
I spoke with Fernando (SM with Phil Long in Chapel Hills). Super nice guy but at the time we spoke (in person) said no markups but that X plan...
It’s futile To assess design decisions from outside the inner sanctum. Bronco Is unique because interest was enough for people to pay to reserve before design was complete.
An example of how exogenous factors can override sensible design/engineering just look up why Space shuttle Engines sizes...
I had a winch on my last wrangler and used it precious little. I always lamented having to drive that extra weight around 95 percent of the time I knew I wouldn’t need it.
Has anyone mounted a winch to a rack made to fit in the 2 inch receiver? I wondered if t was more bother than it was worth (...

Weight is still a considerable Factor though.
Lots of experience towing for over forty years. The commonality has been boiled down to this in my mind. Vehicles do ok around the rated towing capacity. But the closer you get to that max, the steeper the curve of your gas mileage (inverted).
E.g. Had a 2002 Chevy Avalanche that gave me...
Such mixed feelings here. At first I thought - 165000 reservations means $16.5M float for almost a year for FMC. Ive been marketed to! Then I realized sales for first 8 months of 2020 are down 44% and stock is below $7/share. Hard to climb back out of that hole with no capitalization. Oh, then...
HAs this been shared by ford yet? Gonna have to get some plain Jane steelies. Diggin the steelies on the Black Diamond but love the stance and meat on the Sasquatch. Also, anyone know bolt pattern? 6x5.5(139.7)?
Thanks for the info. My concern is of the UV damage here at altitude. While we dont get the Florida/Arizona heat, we get substantially more UV. Thanks again.
For the guys that have wrapped vehicles and kept them for a while, does it last? How long? Resistance to tears? Postulations on fading if it were parked outside at 8000ft for a few years etc?
