I like having the camera on the CHSML, lets me keep an eye on what’s in the bed of the truck.

Almost fired back on “AT4X rides like a dump truck” but thought better just leave it alone. My understanding was that DSSV on road performance was actually pretty plush.

There’s a post on r/overlanding that the payload on the next gen 4Runner Trailhunter is only 895 lbs. possible those numbers are incorrect, if not someone or something may get left behind.

Welcome to the forums.

Bought a 1500 AT4 3.0L in January. My plan is that it’s mine for the next 10 years. Not towing at present but may grab a small overland camper when I retire in a few years. I doubt that I’ll go over 6K so the half ton will be enough.

Great video. I’ve been doing my own detailing but haven’t progressed as far as ceramic or graphine coating. For someone who’s never done it before would you recommend trying the graphine first or jump right into the ceramic.

Agreed, Heather expressed concerns that anyone considering an EV should be asking themselves. I recently caught a video on Steve Lehtos channel that brought up another concern that I haven’t even considered. One of the benefits of owning an EV is not having to purchase fuel. As the number of...

Was talking to one of the local 4x4 shops and he advised me against the Eibach or Bilstein route, saying that while they are an upgrade to the Ranchos, in his opinion they are not enough of an upgrade that he feels it’s worth the investment. His opinion is go big or go home and his...

Had some lower back pain last year that got pretty bad. MRI did not show anything but the Doctor still suggested Physical Therapy. The first 6 weeks didn’t see much progress but the second 6 weeks worked wonders. I got swapped around between 3 different PT’s. I don’t know if my gains in the last...

Purchased a 24 AT4 3.0L is January and have been very happy with the truck except for the Rancho shocks. I’m not at the point where I’m pulling the trigger on swapping them out ,but I am looking into what my options will be. I’m currently thinking either Eibach Stage 2’s or Bilstein 6112/5160’s...

Round 2. Some improvement by scoring the red area between coats but still a bit ragged. Not so noticeable at a distance but up close the edges are not as clean in the red inserts. Good enough for now but I’ll likely just order some black and red AT4 emblems to replace the stock emblems.

A somewhat successful attempt to black out the tailgate emblems on my AT4 using Hyperdip. The GMC and Sierra emblems came out OK but I’m not having much luck with the 4 on the AT4. I pull off too much of the hyper dip when exposing the red in the 4. Tried twice today, I’ve had enough, will try...

During the week my commute is about 6 miles each way. On weekends I’ll usually travel 40 or 50 miles a day. My impression is that the challenge with diesels and short trips is that you may not give the engine enough time to run through a regen. My work around was to install a Banks iDash so I...

I think that the term is used somewhat generically, like Charmin or Google,and may not refer specifically to the company.

How To Bulletproof A 6.0L Power Stroke The basics of "fixing" or "bulletproofing" the Ford 6.0L, which was manufactured for Ford by International, revolve around the oil cooler and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems. In short, the factory stacked plate-type oil cooler easily becomes plugged...

I thought bullet proofing was a Ford Powerstroke thing. Does anyone make a bulletproof kit for the Duramax?

Not a tower but I’d imagine fewer stops at the gas station while pulling a trailer would make for a less stressful trip. On a long trip you still need to stop and stretch the legs or use the facilities but pulling into a rest stop on the interstate won’t cost me as much time as taking an exit...

DeamonWorks has a video on his YouTube channel where he compares the operating costs of the 5.3, 6.2 and 3.0 over the course of 1 and 5 years. The 5.3 was the more cost effective engine in both cases. Both the 5.3 and the 3.0 were more cost effective than the 6.2. He’s looking at the total...

Will do.

I’ve been happy with push to start. The keyless entry took about a week to get used to. Kept pulling out my keys and then realizing I didn’t need them.
