He’s probably mistaken, thinking the hard top restriction also applies to the 2 door. I recommend going for the Big Bend and adding the rear locker. Not sure why they didn’t make that available on the Base.
Rip your CDs into iTunes on your computer, use the AIFF or WAV encoder if you want to retain the same quality. Put it on your devices. You will wonder why you were putting in the effort to carry your CDs around.
Definitely useful for diagnosing problems for a single vehicle, but not useful for comparing it to other vehicles - or even trying to figure out what your running costs will be.
I was under the impression 4A was it was driving both axles all the time, but the transfer case acted as an unlocked center differential, allowing for slippage on corners etc.
A review from Ben Hardy, who always does a good job. Compares the ride and drive of the HOSS 3.0 to the Bilstein models (past experience). Worth a watch! Apologies if someone has already posted it.
the traction control was definitely doing something. It’s not like the Toyota where you have to push a button. It wasn’t weight. I know the traction control is even more aggressive when using Trail Control
I’m in Utah. Lived in Heber City, now live near Logan in Cache Valley. I’ve done trials in Moab, but really the whole state has something to offer. There’s some really good trails between Logan and Bear Lake. Particularly Providence Canyon up to Logan Peak. American Fork Canyon to Midway is good...
Only give bad reviews for things that were in their control. They can’t control vehicle scheduling, production issues, freight, what financing you qualify for. They can control communication, ordering on their end, delivery experience, and connecting you to their lender partners. That’s about it.
Radio navigation. Everytime you turn onto a new street, you would tune in to the localizer and Intercept it, keeping the needle centered, and when you reach the specified DME, you tune into the next one.
Everyone is saying dry pavement. I feel like this needs to be said. Don’t use 4 high or 4 low on wet or dry pavement. If the road is covered in snow or ice, that is ok. It’s for dirt, mud, snow or ice. 2 high or 4 auto for pavement, or any surface that provides decent traction.
Consider a Big Bend with rear locker. You get the shorter axle ratio, and with the 2.3L, you get a good balance of quick acceleration and fuel economy. I ordered one this way and let a friend of mine take it. He averages 22-23mpg. It’s very responsive and you’ll be in it around $40k. I ordered...
Quit babying it and watching the fuel economy readout. Every car can get better than the EPA rating cruising at 60mpg. My wife’s V6 Sorento can average mid to upper 30s doing that, and the rating is way below that. Drive it the way you intended to before you bought it. And stop watching the fuel...
