Two-fer today: 1) Discovered that Google Street View drove by my house a month ago and captured my Tremor parked next to my crepe myrtle. 2) After getting groceries I saw that someone parked their F150 Raptor near my Tremor, although the jacka$$ took two spots by parking straddling a line. Still...

I hauled two bed loads of stuff from my in-laws today - one load to the dump where everyone else in DFW seemed to be today (the line was about 30 cars long) and one to a local community outreach to donate the good stuff. It hit 103F today (and it’s only JUNE!!!), and I discovered that the black...

They may not be stock, but they’d rip off just as easily on real obstacles.

I meant in comparison to the other two Tremor reviews. That review was significantly slower than the other two 0-60 and 1/4 mile times.

What's the deal with the Four Wheeler MT times for the Tremor? Did they do this in the dirt or something? ?

With gas prices so high, one thing to pay attention to is how far you’ll drive for cheaper gas. Back when gas was $2 per gallon, I had no problem driving the extra 9 mile round trip to Costco to save 10 cents per gallon. At roughly 18 mpg, it would cost a dollar to save about $1.70-1.80...

But wait. You left out the most important part: Does he have a tailgate damper, and if not, did you sell him one?

I used to put about 12,000-15,000 miles per year on vehicles prior to Covid times. Now I work from home most days. In all of 2020 and 2021, I put less than 2,000 miles on my Volvo SUV. Now that I have my Ranger, I’m driving more, but some of the miles are due to longer trips to help take care...

No remorse whatsoever, but that doesn’t stop me from lusting after the photos of the new 6G Ranger, especially the spy photos of the crew cab long bed.

There is no escape from gravity, nor dampers, even in space.

This is a great analogy as well. Dampers are like gravity. You can't avoid them; it's a law. ;)

I haven't had the need to do this on my Ranger, but on my 68 Cutlass, it can be hard for some shops to even order the right parts for what I want to do (parts books / internet are often wrong on old cars), especially for upgrades over factory parts. I have found shops that will install the...

Wow, Phil, that’s a lot of projects. My favorite is the “drinking beer” project.

Just catching up on this thread. Looks like a great trip! I would love to do a trip like that someday. I look forward to more pics. Sorry about your GF's injury. My wife is similarly klutzy, and on top of that, she bruises so easily that we joke that she would bruise in a strong wind or even...

What kind of projects are you doing to it?

One of the reasons I bought my Ranger was for hauling car parts or towing my project car, a 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass convertible. Last fall, I bought an old Cherokee for my son and fixed it up, and now I have been doing mods on the Ranger rather than working on the Olds. I will get back to the...

I know, right?! I almost had to use Terrain Management, but thankfully I was able to manage without it and get back on to pavement without incident. ?

Look at my Ranger parked next to... a tree! My wife and I attended an outdoor concert this weekend benefitting a local museum and nature preserve. They directed all of the cars to park in the limited concrete parking lots and all the trucks and SUVs to park in the grass areas. It was a fun...

Thanks, but just for clarity, I already bought some. MODS, this can be closed.

^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^ Perhaps it goes without saying, but as someone who performed hundreds of emissions tests back in the day for oil companies testing their fuels and as someone who built a smog chamber for the research institute to test how these fuels impacted smog, I think it is important to...
