That Cummins in the Titan is woefully underpowered. You can basically tow/carry the same weights with an F150 3.5 Ecoboost. Any review you can find on the Titan XD is luke warm at best. Realistically, the Titan XD is a 1/2 ton marketed as a 3/4 ton with the capability of a 1/2 ton but priced like a 3/4 ton. Seriously,…

I drive an HD diesel. I looked at F250s (my first choice if I had unlimited budget), Silverado 2500, and Ram 2500. I really had my heart set on an F250. We’re talking brand new, diesel, crew cab, 4wd, and moderate bells and whistles. Basically everything but leather or sunroof.

What you left out was a telling quote from GM’s official response to Ram beating the Silverado. I read it yesterday in several articles but damn if I can find it today. To paraphrase, he said that Ram’s incentives were only there to drive up sales numbers so that FCA can be sold and that GM’s higher prices are “good…

I know someone that has never washed their vehicle in 12 years since purchase. Never cleaned the interior once, either. “It’s a truck, it’s supposed to get dirty.”. We’re in the NorthEast. Pretty much every part of the body shows signs of eroding through, no doubt from salt munching away. The rear wheel wells are all…

I remember buying my first motorcycle in 1992. A Honda 750 Nighthawk. It was at least half the price of an 883 Sportster, 10x refined, and could go more than double the range. Just before I bought my Nighthawk, I was in a HD dealer with a friend who was getting his bike repaired for the umpteenth time. Mentioning I…

I worked in the union benefits business for 10 years and had many interactions with many different unions on intimate levels. The amount of corruption and lack fiducial responsibility was appalling. Because of my job role, I ended up being contacted several times by the DoJ due to investigations and what I could turn…

I have a 2018 Ram 2500 diesel. I looked at half ton diesels and curiously waited for the F-150 to make it to market before purchasing the Ram. I’m confused as to exactly what the half ton diesel is targeted for. There’s no overall gain in performance and only an increase in cost over the gas engine. It’s almost like…

Rail travel had it’s chance and like other obsolete technology, it’s supplanted. Great for cargo but people have no patience for it.

I looked at getting a F-150 diesel. After I comfortably spec’d it out, it was like $55,000. And Ford’s afternoon setting a lot of dealer discounts, so I would easily pay North of $50k. And still could only tow 10,000 lbs.

Put an Apple logo on the side of the bike and millenials will be lining up to buy them! For the target audience they are going after, it’s all about marketing. Unfortunately, I think the perception of what a Harley is cannot be easily broken or reshaped just by putting an electric motor in something.

Unfortunately most of you are too young to even have a clue about what it means to retire. Seriously. Be at the end of your mortgage, 25+ years at your job, kids off to college, and then tell me all about the “dumbness” of wanting to coast through the golden years of life in a luxury RV seeing the country.

This just in, criminals with guns commit crimes everyday and they never applied for a permit! As if the common thug is applying for a CCW permit and the system would catch them? It’s supposed to be a federal offense to lie on firearms applications but a study was done by the Office of The Inspector General and found…

So.... How do I pull my travel trailer around the country visiting state and national parks?

And if you have your own personal weather station feeding Underground like I do, they give you a free premium account. Which also makes it less likely you need another weather app to know what it “feels like” since you have your own weather station.

Ah...finally someone who says something “common sense” about guns. See the whole anti-gun agenda is about control or removal. You hear NOTHING about gun SAFETY. Why? Because that would promote gun ownership over gun control. I’m not trying to politicize it. I’m simply saying you never hear about gun safety other to…

An ingenious sophisticated form of child abuse.

There’s one with only 6 miles on the odometer and it’s at a NJ car dealership. I saw it about a month ago when buying a new Ram 2500. In the back half exposed under a cover, I see this wonderful blue striped beast. Not roped off or anything. It’s like the showroom is half cluttered collector’s attic and the other half…

If they were base models, they have the simplest low end radio and that won’t have 4G or Uconnect which would allow you to track it remotely. I believe you have to move up to the 8" touchscreen to get all that functionality.

I’m getting 21 mpg highway in my 2018 Ram 2500 HD along with 800 ft/lb of torque AND I can guarantee what I paid for it is way less than this F150. I was actually holding out to get a F150 diesel, but once you look at the price difference and less towing, I couldn’t see why I would want to “downgrade” to a half ton…

As much as the “intelligent” investors see their money disappear through untraceable and unpunishable cyber theft. It seems the only entity consistently making any money on bitcoins is North Korea.
