I was thinking early CR-V; despite their shitty AWD, a decent set of winter tires would likely be enough, right? I know nothing about snow, as a Californian-turned-Tucsonan.

I think Urals are awesome, but I also think the best way to upgrade a Ural is to replace Ural components with non-Ural components...

The Mrs and I ride motorcycles and sidecars. (We’re currently restoring a vintage racing sidecar to compete with.)

“It’s an electric Ural, baby.”

I commented above that I don’t care that he has a half dozen non-running vehicles.  But take some effort to clean up your parts, put them in one spot behind the garage, line your vehicles up neatly, take the wheels and cardboard off.  It would go a long way.

Well he does mudding in the yard which can get pretty noisy.

And since it’s just a Colorado with a different body on top you would think it’d be easy to pass regulations, and it would be good to have competition for the 4Runner. So no idea really.

Chemtrails were catching too much flak. How many of those have you seen in the past couple months? Not many!

I don’t know if you’ve ever driven a van like that, but the effect is amazing. I’ve driven ex-cop cars as well as white vans, and people are even more yielding for a white van than a decommissioned cop car in black/white. At least they respect the cop to some degree. They just fear the dented van. Those drivers don’t…

Well, as we’ve discussed before, you kind of miss the point here.

Percussive maintenance, on a muscle car.  Perfection.

I suspect that the organization would have battery carts at various locations around major highways, so that you could just switch trailer to add another 200 miles.

the idea for this is to rent it for a trip.
As in, you drive your car normal to a highway entry, you pick up your trailer there, drive straight on the highway toward your destination, and drop off the trailer when you exit the highway.

Our highways are all very good and very straight, everybody can drive a trailer that…

Why even spin off, just call it FF10 or whatever and just focus on the females. Have the men as the background or the ones that need saving. So Dom gets picked up by whatever terrorist or governmental group since its gotten insane now and the women go and rescue him. 

The Bronco is at Supra-level of anticipation for the everyman

The market has moved on, friends. Consumers in developed countries want their vehicles in an SUV/CUV form factor, period.

I wish they had an option for the tow hitch for the hybrids.  I have no intention of actually towing anything, but to lose the ability to use our bike carrier really sucked.  Others with PHEVs have installed the Mopar hitch themselves, but I’m not about that remove-bumper-weld-hitch-myself life.

I’m guessing this but more rusty

Nevermind the Google Maps offline stuff.... safe yourself the juice and just buy yourself a nice, laminated, local road map. So when you lose power and your local gas stations (if they even have power) run out of gas, no worries.

@Terry Mcconnell: Woah there, that's 100% incorrect. Most new cars are so much faster than cars from the 70's it's unbelievable. They're even faster than cars from the muscle car era of the 60's. A modern Toyota Camry would blow pretty much any 70's car out of the water. Move on to something with even a little bit…
