This is a cool Jeep for sale for $6,500 with a lot of new add-ons. With the money saved you could drop in a really nice drivetrain that is new.

Rear Tow Package Shackle I just put one on order. Reason being is that the rear is missing this Very important piece of recovery gear. The front already has two high quality tow hooks that are actually bolted directly to the frame (Some other brands tend to have wielded on hooks that tend to...

Here is a pic I just saw posted on coloradofans.com A ZR2 with the 4" BDS lift, 4.10 gears, and 35" tires. It does look pretty mean.

I did see a video a few weeks ago with a guy with a modern diesel. The exhaust system alone had a DEF pump, a DEF injector, Two temp sensors, and a few other sensors. This all being after the normal exhaust sensors that are further up the exhaust near/for the engine. No thankyou. He had his DEF...

I got my 18’ Z71 gasser for $32.5k new. The sticker said msrp $36k and sticker said $38.5k with add-on items. It has been a great truck so far. Much higher build quality than my 1st gen Colorado was. It had 223k miles on her when I sold her. The new 3.6 V6 has longevity items built into the...

What! I had no idea that there were some DSSV shocks being offered by Chevy now for my Z71. I will def. read up on that later and post up the links if I find them. Shocks are one of the few things I was thinking of doing some day (maybe).

Mid-sized Trucks Available Here is a quick link to a vid on all of the available mid-sized trucks by the end of 2019. They are all going to be great trucks. I would research them and pick what is best for your needs. About the only one I would not even consider is the Rdgeline. I need 4Low...

I am the Z71 fellow that John/H60Flyer mentioned in the last post. I live in Virginia Beach, VA and work down in Elizabeth City, NC. I should be able to make it that weekend. I would like to get some experience with this new truck under my belt. Meeting new/local like minded folks is a super...

I just ran and took some pics of the skids and rock sliders at different angles for a different perspective on how they sit on/protect the truck. When rocks start getting to the size of a basketball... is about when I will start having to worry about them hitting the low spots/skids.

I just saw your post earlier and went to check out A.R.E. to see what offerings they have. I had no clue that the HD varients of their fiberglass shells are actually reinforced with a metal ladder rack and they can carry up to 500lbs on top. The side window tool boxes on the HD can carry up to...

Thanks! [emoji3]

Sounds like a great game plan. I did that myself many years ago. I dropped the V8 Silverado I had and got a 4cyl vehicle (That started with 164k mi on the odo and was super cheap/instantly paid off) for the commute. Got the wife's vehicle paid off and started saving as much as I could each...

Thanks for the compliments! Moyock is on the list for possible candidates for a place to live as well. I went a looked up the annual tax rates of Chesapeake, VA and Moyock, NC last night. On a home valued @ $325k the taxes in Virginia would be just over $3,000 per year and the taxes across the...

I spent the whole morning/afternoon today driving around looking @ areas to purchase a home. Found this deep in a really nice/but affordable subdivision. Took the opportunity to take some pics!

For my 2018 Chevy Colorado Z71... Recently installed some ZR2 rock sliders and 2 OEM skids up front (ZR2 style but different lip on front plate). With the air dam removed... this is how I wish it would have come standard from the factory. However, it only cost $320 for the used rock sliders...

I have been thinking about setting up something similar in my truck bed. There is a guy named Steven Harris. I believe I heard that he has worked out some pretty good DIY vehicle Solar/Generator units for vehicles. Some that charge off of Solar panels and some that charge off of using 10%(or...

I like those AEV skids. They seem super well made and tough. I like the Superskidz as well. I did not know he has a fuel tank skid on the way. That is good to hear. I am following your build as well! Thanks

OEM skids and sliders installed! Be sure to read the descriptions on each pic below if you are interested in the details about how the OEM style skids work as an engineered system. I noticed some things and took pics. They seem to have put some thought into the shape of these skids. I got...

Mmmm... Coffee and donuts does sound mighty fine right about now. I will put on a pot of coffee to thaw out. Did it out in the driveway. Luckily I have some overly warm CG issued coveralls. I was actually getting toasty enough in them to the point to where my hands stayed warm as well. Lol...

That is something that Many Americans have a good healthy passion for... 4WD. Nothing wrong with that! You have a very nice rig BTW. My wife really wants a 4Runner some day. Actually my first vehicle was a 88' 4Runner 4x4 with the first 3.0 V6. I loved that thing! Super slow by todays...
