  2. Predictable increase of backcountry motor vehicle issues

    They did, and the local officials didnt listen. Last thing a retiring couple wanted to do is to spend their money on winning a lawsuit - which they did.
  3. Predictable increase of backcountry motor vehicle issues

    While I am glad more people are experiencing the outdoors, I believe that is the problem. More more people more problems, more ways to experience the outdoors more ways to create problems. Hiking, well walking the trails in the local township and county parks over the past decade I certainly...

    Southwest Ohio. salt and rust here, but not as harsh as where you are. Plus now that I am retired, I dont have to drive in as much inclement weather, or we use my wife's Forester. I have had my winch, installed in the Warn bumper for 3 1/2 years and nearly 50,000 miles. Granted about 10K of...

  6. Yosemite Help

    I wandered around the Lake Tahoe area in October of 2020, so the crowds were a little thinner and a lot of things were closed. From Reno I drove 431 up the mountain to Incline village, 28 to Tahoe City, 89 up and back to Truckee. That section traffic wasn't bad. Rt 89 was nearly bumper to...

  10. Taking on the Trans America Trail

    Well, it depends. You could with a lot of re-routing. Though it would be very humorous to watch as you climb up to Cinnamon pass with a parade of about 2 dozen frustrated side by sides behind you and a parade of about 2 dozen Jeeps waiting for you to pass. (a parade of vehicles is my endearing...

  12. Hard Tonneau Cover/ Bed Rack combo

    As usual, the best answer is "it depends" I have the Ford version of the Embark Retractable Locking Tonneau cover on my Crew Cab. I used the Yakima Outpost which puts the top of the rack (bottom of the tent) basically at the cab roof level. The system worked great and I even had a 4 gallon...

  17. Interesting story about the ongoing saga with parts shortage.

    Just a reminder, the F-250 were removed by the end of September. Just because Clinton was in office doesn't make it his fault. Most companies are in business to make the owners a profit. So if things are less expensive elsewhere, that's what they may choose. Wasn't it Nixon who opened China...
  18. OEM Block Heater Installation

    Use an appropriately rated extension cord, and loop the cord around the drivers outside mirror to remind you to unplug. I had mine plugged into a timer that I set to run for 3 to 4 hours. Started easier and generated heat quicker. Lesson learned from, wow, 12 plus years ago when I installed...
