Unfortunately I wont be able to make, I have some cleaning to do on my rig in prep for a trip to mammoth lakes

I would love to hear down, but I don't know if I will be able to, I get off work at 3 and it's 2 and a half out drive down for me Sent from my Nexus 6P using OB Talk mobile app

When I ran the road earlier this year I brought along an extra ten gallons just in case (On my roof in my profile picture) I didn't actually end up needing any by the end of the trip... I had a little under a quarter tank left at the end (23 gallon tank, I get 11-12 MPG city, and 14-16 MPG...

I am simultaneously liking this idea of splitting the teams up into regions because it helps get people who live near each other connected, but at the same time it does limit the amount of people who you wouldn't otherwise get to see very often. On the note of groups, I am just thinking out...

I hope he didnt hurt anything! Do f-150s have raised diff breathers?

A free bump for the impending date! Sent from my Nexus 6P using OB Talk mobile app

I managed to find standing water/mud that came up to my grill in southern California! Decided to take my rig out on a night drive to establish my lighting needs (I am a lighting design student and a theatrical electrician and light board programmer professionally, so I better get my lighting...

I'm very glad to see so many people on here understanding the importance of a good set of tires. I unfortunately know we quite a few people in real life who do not understand why they shouldn't cheapest used tires they can buy. My Grandfather and father drilled into me the importance of a good...

I am looking forwards to seeing this!

I fixed my cooling problem (Which might have been my fault in the first place oops!) The old composite gasket from the thermostat (The original from the best I can tell) The gasket I cut While I was working on the cooling system I figured I would check as many boxes as possible, so I...

Got to love fluid changes!

I am curious, I have heard incredibly mixed information regarding the freelanders, they seem to be the unloved child of the land rover family... How does yours work for you? In comparison to your LR4? How is it offroad? Is it better at long haul trips? etc.

While I have never owned a new vehicle, my experience with my parents cars (both owned from mile 0) and my 21 year old rig (owned from 179000 miles) is basically as stated above, so I won't repeat what has already been said. One thing that I have discovered about my old rig is that it's less...

Got to work flushing my radiator and tracing down my cooling problem.

I might be interested in this, I'll have to see about the date though... Sent from my Nexus 6P using OB Talk mobile app

I just went out to take a look, and I don't believe the rover actually had a collent temperature light (at least none comes on with the warning light checks). However if I had to guess I would say it didn't run much past 230*-240* because I check the gauge pretty regularly and it was moving up...

It caught me by surprise, the needle has never budged after reaching temp before, so as soon as it started climbing I noticed and didn't let her run any longer. I don't think that the radiator is my issue (Though I will certainly keep it in mind), I believe that the thermostat is the culprit...

Today my rover over heated on me for the first time, and I managed to fill it up with drinking water and limp it the 23 miles home with not enough coolant through traffic... Lesson learned, going to start carrying some gallons of distilled water even for short trips, also maybe time for an...

I run Cooper AT3's on my rover, they have held up great so far! Been awesome on the sand and the snow, they have an insane amount of on road grip, more then the generic road tires that were on the truck when I bought them, they have some of the best posted braking distances (And from...

I really like the look of this one! Might have to try something similar for my disco
