Nice work!

I was able to borrow my dad’s F250 Tremor with the 7.3L Godzilla engine for a month last year while my truck was getting fixed and yeah, even aired down to 40-45, it was still very rough. The roads around where I live are frequently recognized as some of the worst in North America lol. I also...

I’d say you’re both right lol. Anybody that uses a half-ton to do some work will most likely overload it. Jeeps/4Runners have around 850-1000lbs of payload when leaving the factory, and that’s before they bolt-on hundreds of pounds of bumpers, rooftop tent, etc. to it. Modern half-ton...

My sticker is around the same. If I was running this loaded every week, I would be in a 3/4 ton truck. I weighted my truck and compared it against the GVWR and I’m closer to 1600bs of actual payload, even with all of my stuff in the truck. I really don’t know why Toyota is doing that. I know...

Yeah coil springs tend to give more sag and not handle being over payload as well as leaf springs. Here’s my truck with 1700lbs of water in the bed. It was fine, even off-road, but man was she squatting.

The coastal dune looks awful on screen.

So Ram is much further behind than the competition on payload when it comes to ultra-luxury trucks.

That was a big WTF from me when I saw that video. Tim is there a reason that truck manufacturers are not playing with the GVWR a little more in the half-ton segment? Seems like they could go to 7999lbs. That would give us extra payload, assuming the truck can take it.

Yeah that was a big womp womp for me when they announced it back. 10000 reservations is not a lot, even for Tundra standard and they sell the least in the class. But hey, you can now get your hemi tick and cracking manifold in the brand new 2026 edition 😂

Yeah I knew about rivian, they ha d a really rough launch. From trucks that would brick themselves, to vampire draining, to suspensions so fucked that rivian would offer a new truck completely, it was a shit show.

Yeah, but like debated ad-nauseum on TFL, it’s more of a great passenger vehicle than a truck. The payload is great, but the shape of the bed makes it really impractical at loading stuff, the towing ability is on par for the class, but the recharge is slow when the battery is being heavily used...

Thanks!

I don’t thinks it’s a disdain towards musk or Tesla itself, it’s against the cybertruck specifically. It’s such a bad products in a lot of way and it warrants the ridicule it’s getting. People are making fun of a factory truck, not a truck that has been brodozered and then can’t do anything, it...

First hearing of this, can you share the source? I heard that they require more maintenance than people taught, but not more than ICE.

Nice! Plevna is still south from me lol. What brought her there?

I’m actually north of highway 7 hahahaha.

There’s plenty of chargers around where I live, the problem is the closest charger to where I enter the bush is 60 miles away and is only a level 2. The closest level 3 is right by my home lol. With a Silverado EV, since it’s the one that has the most range, I’m looking at adding almost a full...

Thank you! That would be a nice program for consumers, and I would love to try it but I fall into the 1 or 2 percent of people that it would not actually work for. Unless they really upgrade the charger network, battery chemistry and how fast it charges. I need a minimum of 350-400 miles...

Same for me. Just did a 450 mile round-trip with 120 of those off-road and on top of that, half of those 450 miles were while pulling a small trailer. I would have added several hours to the trip and I'm not sure I could've made the off-road portion with an EV truck. Picked up the stuff left by...

What tires are you running right now?
