Great thread, thanks for sharing your experience and insights, guys. My original Evo10 hook, now 3 years old, is getting pretty rusty. Bear in mind: I park ("garage," the insurance term) and drive on high-salt Northeast city streets I've only needed to winch myself a few times in a few...

Speaking of stretch jobs remember when the stretch Lincoln was the ultimate for luxury? Funny how that fad came and went. Maybe there's a secret junkyard where stretch limos go to die and rust.

That stretch job took some serious engineering! IQ: 147 Acts like: 15 years old,

I go for utility. Moving on,

Um.....what's the vowel here?

It's my Boston Urban Daily Drive Prius: suitable for Boston potholes, "select" Boston neighborhoods, and good mileage to help Boston's determination to achieve "net-zero" (or something) so that "rising sea levels" (or something) don't put Beantown under water. In my prompts, I asked for a...

In Chicago's South Side, especially.

DM me when you go. I just mounted new KO2s, and would love to give them a good workout. How is that trail for pinstriping? Also, any chance of law enforcement checking on off-road sticker? I don't see myself doing anything else in Mass, having done Ma Bell three times now. Other than private...

Welcome to the forums--and New England off-roading! Our NE experiences differ from the rest of the country. Those Class IV (VT) and Class 6 (NH) roads are legal byways that have been abandoned (mostly) for maintenance, and present exciting very-off-the-beaten-track opportunities. Our rocks are...

I like your post, and love your images. What a history! I agree, I sometimes get impatient with newbies who are asking a question that has 25 threads and 25,000 posts on the subject. Speaking of which, what tires should I get for my off-road Prius? It's also my daily drive and the wife wants a...

I don't process shattered illusions very well. 😞

Yes, this!

Kicking the duck is a bit...um...rude. Not sure I care for the others. Maybe Sasquatch walking the duck on a leash? Of course, Bronco owners know what they've got and don't need bling to get the point across. Sort of like, back in the old days, you knew the guys who displayed the Playboy bunny...

"Trail Rated"...!!! And who "rated" it? Probably the same people who did the "Certified Used Cars" certification at the vacant lot used car dealership you drive by. Would "Up to 250 mile range"* be more accurate? *Under ideal circumstances.

Thanks! Your post helps me make sense of @Broncian post, above. Looping the dental floss in, hooking it around and recovering it on its exit may be a little tricky, but I've found after I've done things new to me a few times, I get better, and lifting the Aeroskin a bit more should speed things...

Good to know. 3W's price is nice ($170) which includes a cargo mat and protectors for the rear seats' back-sides. But their site sucks (see my post, above), and doesn't apply the discount to the carpet ("rug") accessory. Will you have BlackFriday sale? Any discount for veterans and/or first...

Thanks for the tip, but I just might pass on 3W. They look good, and I appreciate he recommendations and endorsements, but their website and customer service are seriously lacking. Your link did direct me to that add-on rug-style option to the hard-plastic mat. But when I added it to my...

My aeroskin has worked, or I've been lucky, no rock chips since the install. Regarding bugs: they stay off, mostly. I can only wonder how many I'd collect without it. Somethings, we'll never know. My problem is that the tailing edge (facing the hood) has lifted off. Water from rain and car...

Nice videos over great terrain.
