    How is the ride with the OME suspension? And free bump I guess.

    Hanzos 2007 RCSB Tundra Build

    What made you decide on these options? Will you keep the chrome bumper if you go with the winch plate?

    Hanzos 2007 RCSB Tundra Build

    Looks like you are really going through it. Very nice. Looking forward to seeing which bumper you go with. I recently bought a 2011 and debating an ARB deluxe. I like the grandpa vibes.

    2013 Chancho The Tundra

    How are the 35s with the 4.6? I have the same with tow package and find it slow as is, wondering how much the bigger tires would ruin it? What suspension were you running originally?

    2015 Ram 2500 4x4 diesel on 37’s

    Great looking truck. Side note to potential buyer: This cannot be "legally" registered as an RV in accordance with California vehicle code (assuming you haven't omitted significant features which are all contained in the truck bed. Fines if caught would be tremendous.

    HELP: I Bought a Lemon Overlander

    Are you having the transmission shudder when accelerating? Or something else? I had a similar shudder, replaced trans fluid and has been gone for 120k miles. (240k on truck) Check and see if the vibration still occurs with the transmission in "4" instead of "D"

    New cab chassis for camper

    Thanks for all the details. New build sounds exciting. I assume the ram was a Cummins as opposed to the gas engine? I am curious to see how the decreased power will handle the larger tires. 10'6" height is pretty great, is that with the 35s? What is the interior height of the camper?

    New cab chassis for camper

    I noticed you went with the smaller tires, as opposed to the MPT81s? Was the due to the gas engine, or just a desire for a smooth quiet ride? How do you think the gas motor would handle the ~42" tires (with 4.88 gearing) Also, what is the current overall height of the camper (when on the flatbed)?

    DIY Expedition Vehicle Build VIDEO

    Cant say I disagree with Suave, this is at least the second thread where you link to some other source (youtube) rather than just posting a build within. At least all those photos posted here are now property of ExpeditionPortal rather than this imaginary production company. Ideally we'd just...

    @Adrifters - F550 Surf Camper Build - Adrift Motorhome

    Thanks, Yea i suppose my thinking of diesel being cheaper to run long term is quite outdated based on all the current info available. Do the 42" tires turn easily with the 4.88 gears and gas engine?

    @Adrifters - F550 Surf Camper Build - Adrift Motorhome

    If you were to rebuild this with a current model f550, would you still choose the gas motor (7.3) over the 6.7PSD? Looking at options and drawn to the diesel for certain reasons, but gas is quieter, doesnt have the same smog devices, $10k cheaper, and keep reading a lot about cost of running a...

    Car Paint Colors & Temperatures

    I guess the specific increase is interesting, but doesnt everyone know a darker color is hotter? A similar debate exists in motorcycle helmets - people point to white helmets being cooler, yet due to the foam interior and compsite shell, it really makes no difference. Despite differences in...

    Why not measure the inside instead of the outside?
