To be fair, Jeep fans, Ford fans, Chevy fans, etc. can also get to be a bit cringeworthy. For what I want in a vehicle, the Bronco currently strikes the best balance. If I had gone for a pickup, I would have likely gone for the Colorado with the Bison AEV package, etc.

It should be. Nice to see I’m living rent free in your head. Thanks for the socialisms.

You mean breaking state laws against modifying your vehicle to be louder?

So the answer is “no”. Thanks.

If you are in a car in NYC in the summer, that’s your bad decision making.

You should take an economics course. An increase in fuel efficiency, ceteris paribus, will shift the demand function towards the left. The result is a lower quantity of fuel sold at a lower price. Now, you might say that people will drive more because fuel costs less - but those extra trips...

But what about their freedoms or whatever the hell it is that people use to justify anti-social behavior.

How many people have had starters or flywheels fail because of auto start stop? Can you find even a single example?

The LC ain’t exactly cheap…but certainly less expensive than the Lexus.

My old 4Runner was surprisingly capable bone stock. The new models really are a step backwards in many ways.

Sigh. Which would you rather have: start/stop or an engine with less power to get better fuel economy.

They could choose to put more fuel efficient engines in their vehicles. But then people would whine about their freedom or something.

We all pay more when people waste fuel - both for fuel and for the associated costs of pollution.

Kai makes the most intelligent content out there, and isn’t afraid to tell the truth…

I prefer to maximize my departure angle, which will change with a leveling kit - and not for the better. Seems a waste of time, effort and money for something practically imperceptible - and even then only when stationary - with minimal improvement off-road.

I know that…but frankly it’s not a good idea unless you never carry anything in your cargo area, and “level” will change based upon where your passengers are sitting and your cargo is stowed.

Have you cleaned all your tailgate seals and used some silicone lubricant like Shin Etsu? If not, do that first.

There’s really no reason to not lift each end evenly. That being said, driving dynamics are going to change when you lift it. If you make the right choices, it might be not a huge difference, but making the wrong choices and result in it feeling like you’ve made a horrible mistake.

What problem are you trying to solve besides spending money on something?

Why did you lift it more in the front than in the rear?
