Yes! Exactly. This was a surprise to us also as we started looking. The quality is far from what you get in even the lowest end automobiles. The Basecamp in particular didn't live up to classic style Airstreams that we looked at though. Materials, fit and finish, etc. But then again it's a...

We rented one of these for a Florida to Colorado road trip. Pulled it behind a 2015 Wrangler JKU. It's a nice trailer but it didn't turn out to be what we want. The quality level overall wasn't what you expect out of Airstream. The one we rented was a 2017 model year. That was the first year of...

One of the reasons I am downgrading my FE reservation to Badlands.

Not sure I agree with that assessment. I run 35s now and I like the way they work on trails better than smaller tires. It's not just for "the look" even though I do very much like the look. The articulation difference on the squatch and non-squatch is something like half an inch. In most...

It was! It is such a good feeling to be on a trail that is a little bit challenging out in the Colorado mountains. This one won't beat the crap out of your vehicle but you also know that most cars couldn't be there.

I think Fuel makes some good looking wheels. Not all of them of course. I have Fuels now and they are a good quality wheel.

I love the idea. If it here on B6G we can ask each other about the trails. I have started to film and record trail outings. I have put three threads in this section so far. I am happy to answer any questions about those trails in the threads. It would be great if we got a bunch of us doing that...

I strongly agree with the idea of renting a trailer/camper for your first trip. You will learn much more what fits you and your style than any amount of reading and advice can give you. We rented from rvshare.com recently. There are pros and cons to any approach. I loved the idea of a rooftop...

This was one of my favorite trails on our Colorado trip. In large part because there was not another single vehicle in sight when we were there. On the entire trail the only other human we saw was a sole hiker heading down the hill while we were going up. Warden Gulch is an in and out trail...

Looking pretty seriously at the T@B 400 Boondock. It's gonna be right up at the limits but shouldn't be a problem. Especially with a weight distribution hitch and sway control bars. Works for what we generally want to do. Set up camp in an area for a week or so and explore in the Bronco. Hike...

The moved the axle up about three inches in the last model year or two. Reduced the tongue weight quite a bit. The 400 Boondock is 336 dry weight now.

Excellent review! Thanks! I felt much the same way after seeing the two door in person (wish they had the four door in Colorado). When you see one in person they are impressive. These are going to fly off the lots when they get there!

I knew that shape looked familiar!! :ROFLMAO:

I seem to remember that you can choose to have black or gray stitching. Looks like most of the rest of that horrid orange could be replaced with aftermarket or OEM parts. edit - I do like the rest of it. Just not the orange.

I wondered why a Wrangler is rated at 5500 lbs or so in Europe but 3500 lbs in the U.S. even with the same specs. This article explains it pretty well. You can get some advice on how to tow safely. There are a few basic rules in the article. One of the most important is speed. It's not a short...

Most likely yes. Based on IFS vs a solid front axle the Bronco should ride better on the street. We won't know 100% for certain until they hit the roads but it's a pretty safe bet. With that said, I've never personally found the Jeep ride to be as bad as you read on the net. I've driven cross...

There was a table setup with Ford reps at Bronco Super Celebration West. They had tablets setup with a survey for those attending. If you did the survey you got a free mug! They are nice quality metal coffee cups with lids. Just letting you know to look for it if you attend the east event. I...

I prefer sports cars de-badged. Something about badges on an expedition type vehicle seems right to me though.

The ultimate. For experienced shoppers only. High clearance credit card required.

Hopefully they don't tie it to having a paid membership to BN.
