    Some questions about AWD Express/Savana

    So far pretty happy with our Express AWD. We live and play in the Mojave. Van goes some surprising places. Ours came with 3.73 gears with limited slip rear. Very helpful. Unlike previous 3/4 ton 4X4 trucks that powered over everything. This guy just bounces along. With bed, fridge, solar...

    Chevy Express 1500 radiator/cooling help sought

    Vehicle is a 2003 Chevy AWD 1500 Express van 5.3 engine. Problem is when towing my 4,400 pound trailer up long grades the needle moves into the red. What can be done to improve the engine cooling on this van? Guys, I appreciate the suggestions so far but we live, camp and explore in there...

    Thoughts on used EarthRoamer?

    The only downside I see to an older ER is engine and trans wearing out or failing. On the other hand. The engine and trans are probably the lowest cost items on the rig. My opinion is of course based entirely on supposition. So you probably should not listen to me.

    Pass-through really necessary?

    Call me old and lazy but when it is raining, snowing or too hot or cold. That pass trough is a winner. I also like the thought that if I wake up in a wildfire or other problem. I am in the drivers seat and gone in less than two blinks of the eye. To each their own.

    ROXOR: The Willys CJ3 Reinvented

    While reading about them on the internet. I ran across a company that makes them street legal. In my warped little mind... A little, light diesel "jeep" for under 25 grand is a great deal considering what new jeeps cost. But to each their own.

    Extreme use Earthroamer

    Entertaining thread. Some guys here built their own. (That Air Force looking truck and the white one.) but not everyone can nor does everyone want to camp and explore in a Subaru. And for those folks who cannot build their own. Companies have been formed to provide what those folks want. I...
