I wonder how Wes Morrell feels about being Musk’s lackey? I’m sure ol’ Musky told him to ‘make it complicated’ so that nobody disputes his 11,000 lb tow rating claim.

I wonder how this would be affected by Weight Distribution Hitches. Most RV owners are going to put a WDH on their rig to help level out load, but in doing so they significantly move the ball further back and increase the rotational leverage where the tongue marries to the truck.
That said, my 2500hd pulls my 9k…
Did you watch the video? The F-150 wasn’t exactly stuck when the CT snapped. It was rolling and then hit a big bump.
The manual transmission is dead in the US. It’s time to face the facts that it’s a niche product that only sells in extremely small volumes. It will probably cost Nissan more to develop one than they would make back in sales by far.
Maybe the last two will help, but I don’t think the development costs of selling dozens of us manual cars is going to help them at all.
I don’t think that there’s anything inherently wrong with the concept of offering some inexpensive cars and extending credit to people who might not otherwise be able to purchase a car. In fact, I think it’s a great idea.
Wait, so this guy bought a Cybertruck and DOESN’T want attention?!
It’s real weird to for two people to confidently pontificate about an event that happened a decade and a half ago, which neither of them witnessed, on a TV show that neither of them were involved with at the time.
Well, it’s not that complex in reality. Its real model name is Wildwood Grand Lodge 42 Veranda. Wildwood and Salem are actually two different product lines, not the name of a single trailer. Weirdly, Forest River is really bad at articulating that, so I see how Logan copied it.
As a fellow firefighter, you’re spot on. Fire departments across this country are expected to handle medical/trauma emergencies, vehicle crashes, picking up 400 lb people off of floor, hazardous material incidents, flooded basements, dogs stuck in storm drains, assistance burying a cat....and oh, almost forgot to…
Also firefighter here - I was worked up like you when I first read this story, then walked away, then realized that he has no idea what he is talking about.
So the main source is a YouTube video from a content creator that openly admits to shitposting in his bio. Lots of stats pretending to show firefighters are useless, but where is the evidence that American streets are as wide as they are because of fire trucks? Fire trucks aren’t any wider than semis or box trucks,…
As a firefighter for 30 years and these days mostly chauffeur, I can speak with great authority in saying that you have no idea what you are talking about. You read a couple of articles about firefighting in Europe and I guess now you know are a subject matter expert?
And yet, they send their 40-foot-long firetrucks anyway even though one firefighter on a motorcycle could almost definitely get there with a defibrillator.
It’s not really that simple in America. The other countries already had established roads and infrastructure centuries prior to the US even being a thing. It can be done but it needs to be strategic and a change in work culture needs to be done first, no more of this return to office BS if it can be done (obviously…
Wow. Next thing that he’ll tell us is that more fire trucks means more fires. Correlation and causation are very different concepts.
There’s actually quite a lot of debate and thought that goes into what platform to select when a FD purchases a truck for thier fleet. Contrary to what one may think, we as firefighters don’t particularly like big trucks. The bigger the truck, the less you can see, the less you can maneuver, the less options you have…
Really? Picking on fire trucks?? What’s next? The ice cream truck music is too loud and killing kids!!!
How about we deal with the underinsured knobs who think “cutting up” is fun first? The size of our firetrucks is hardly cracking the the top 1000 on my list of concerns with our roadways
Is anyone else a bit suspicious of someone buying a Cybertruck on an O-3's salary?
