Installed an underbody camera this evening. Kinda cool. May need to tweak the location a bit but I’ll test it out this weekend at the overland rally.
I don’t know of many vehicles that can take a side impact at 40 MPH and not come out worse for wear. I immediately started looking for a replacement because of how well it took care of my wife in the crash.
Yeah, It's more of a "do it cause it's cool" thing. Not really "do it cause it makes sense." I've already got a tiny Jackery, and I could always do something like that instead. That was my original plan, but then I figured "Why not?"
I just found a giant slimline 100 Ah battery for a reasonable...
I haven't updated this in too long! After getting my replacement Tremor (I may be the only person ever who can say they've owned 2 Azure Gray 5g Tremors) I went whole hog into kitting it out. Just got the xCover installed today. I'll take it out for a test camp this weekend then I'll be at the...
That's the same spec as my second Tremor. First one was a 302 with tow package and bed utility package and the replacement truck was 301 with tow package and remote start.
The things that the 301 is missing that my 302 had are:
- tiny rear window
- power heated seats
- heated side view mirrors...
Who wants an update???
I spent the week hemming and hawing:
- Do I want to wait for a 2024 Ranger?
- Do I want to get a 2023 Colorado instead?
- Do I want to go with something completely different?
- Am I willing to get a Tremor that's not Azure Gray?
- What about options? What can/can't I...
I mean, I’m half glad that it got totaled. A repair of that magnitude would take months with the parts and labor shortages and likely will never be the same. If someone repairs it, it’ll have a salvage title and likely many minor issues that’ll never go away.
I’ve purchased from them before. Cool dealership, but I really want another Tremor. Preferably AGM, Cactus, or Red Pepper.
I might fly somewhere and drive it home if I can find the right price. I’ve done that before and it’s pretty enjoyable, but I’m certainly not flying 800 miles to pay...
Thanks. It’s actually really nice to read that.
Venting moment incoming…
It’s been a really rough year. In January, I was laid off from Google after working there for over 10 years. In February, my youngest child spent multiple days in the ICU at Seattle Children’s after a severe asthma...
Under 20k miles?
I’m not entirely sure. I know I don’t want to wait 4 months to order another truck from the factory, and I don’t particularly want to spend more than I did for my “perfectly specced out truck”.
