well... i drove a 2021 gladiator rubicon diesel yesterday... and well decided this morning to put my 2018 f250 crew diesel up for sale! i think I can tune and build the gladiator to be as powerful (power to weight ratio) as the f250 tuned... and 25 mpg is hard to look away from when my plans...

i can't find much wrong with the Mann... except you can't import one into the USA. all the cool trucks I want.. you can't own here. I guess that means I am destined to travel the world. lol
im a vet... had a Belgian Malinois... SD / retired MWD ... he was a 'cut -dog' from Lackland's program due to his mom.. got him at 9 months.. and we repurposed him as a SD. had him for 13 years. had to put him down june 2019 due to spondylitis... I want another Belgian... been looking...
the prospector xl is a hugely compromised. i talked to a suspension engineer about the AEV suspension system... and he said "Go to Carli"... "start there'... then come back and we can make something cool.
i've got a few trucks. but it seems my 'go-to' rig these days is my 18 f250 crew, 6.7d. we took it almost 1000 miles offroad running parallel to the cont. divide trail. i'm looking hard at the 1 ton ram 6.7d and building a trailbeast version of the powerwagon starting there. when you load...
I talked to an engineer about that... his response was pretty clear. "How many cars do you see at SEMA .. where someone moved the intercooler?"
The old cummins weighs 600 lbs more than the old 5.7 hemi. the new cummins HO weighs in at 980 lbs. the new hemi comes in at 622 lbs. so...
for years I've wished Ram would make the powerwagon in diesel. I've talked to engineers at SEMA about it... it seems to be more a management thing.. than anything engineering related. even though the company says otherwise.
welcome back!! am over in frisco. started a company building turn-key rigs sold through dealerships.. but would be interested in chatting and bouncing ideas off of each other if you're interested. PM me.
send me a PM on the other locations so I can catch up to you guys. i can't make it this weekend like we discussed but should be able to the next weekend.
be careful withe the wheel spacers.. when we use them (rarely). we torque them in with loctite to keep them from walking. try it.. it sucks to take off later. but better than getting screwed on the trial.
i did see the alp generator... ordered one today. its 499.00 for 1000 watts -- propane. they say you can parallel them.. i'll check the first one out.. and then if its solid I'll get a second and parallel. but you might give it a look.
