@RCI Offroad can the light bar stay on the vehicle with the rest of the rack removed?

As long as you meant to write "horrific" instead of "terrific" I 100% agree. There is easily enough room for two more gouges below the three already in there. I also wouldn't mind fuel economy and boost on the same page too.

That sounds familiar for some reason. What could it possibly be?

That would definitely help with the utility trailer, but I'd still be stuck with the bike rack. Or when using anybody else's regular-length hitch for a trailer with a different ball diameter.

I need another 4" for my bike rack to clear the spare tire mount and for my utility trailer latch to clear the bottom of the spare, but am having a heck of a time finding anything that short. They're mostly 7" or 8" extenders. I never when thought about swapping out the entire reciever, but that...

@damarble would tell you in no uncertain terms that there's a fantastic hack for it.

I have one too but I'm pretty sure it's the plastic cover for the accessory mount. I will definitely try the visor though.

It's been almost two years and I'm still tearing up writing this. It gets easier as time goes on, but they never leave that special place in your heart. It looks like he had a great life and knew he was loved, which would have been all he wanted.

X-Terras are plenty cool to anyone who knows anything worth knowing

Why?

I'm getting mine replaced under recall tomorrow, and it was a few weeks for it to come in.

Thankfully the 2.3L is DI, so not much of a worry. I've never experienced rev hang in mine, not that it's set up for super fast shifts anyways.

I have almost always let it warm up enough for the idle to come down to 900RPM, but it's rarely up to full temp before I start driving. Every time it's happened to me the engine has been warm but definitely not all the way warm, but I don't know if that's just because of how I usually start it out.

How warm is the engine when it happens? Is it up to full operating temp yet?

By SAE J2807, tow cap should be GCWR - curb weight - 300lbs, and that's on the "test" vehicle. Pickups in general have a GCWR for every trim, body style, and powerteain combination, but if your truck is well appointed then it will have a higher curb weight than the "test" vehicle and therefore...

Your payload (it's more suitable to think about it in terms of GVWR) is only one of the many things that you are not supposed to exceed. Tongue weight is another, so no you can't simply put 600lbs of tongue weight on that truck and it be fine because you're still under GVWR. Max tongue weight is...

It looks like you're planning on a BB so I recommend getting the rear locker, even if you're planning on mostly highway driving. Once you learn about gearing it will make sense. Also if your boat ramping includes some gravel, ice, overly steep grades, or other sub-par conditions then the locker...

Great point about the gearing and desired usage. I'd take it a step further and say that (if you're not planning on getting the base) for the difference in price it's probably a better investment to get the 2.3L with the rear locker which kicks your gears up to 4.27 than it is to get the 2.7L...

Like @mpeugeot said it's likely to do with the B&O sub now being included in all sound systems, so no longer a cost on the lux package. That's the way the 4x4 system connects the front axle, not the sway bar disconnect.
