Thank you for that photo! The lady is quite partial to the Colorado(she had an 04, until the dreaded i5 engine issues) but she loves the feel of the ranger. I'm trying to arrange a time to have a ranger and a colorado in the same area so we can go drive them and interrogate them in the same day.

Thank you for the photos! May have to go this route. On which rig? Interesting. Have to look those up. Then there's the trouble of storing the seats.

Ok, we are in the market for a new to us rig. Looking at the main 3 (Ranger, Taco, Colorado) in crew cab flavor. Our main concern is back seat functionality. When not hauling people, in our current 04 chevy 1500 Crew, the backseat folds completely flat and is perfect for dogs, camping gear...

Yep. Cuts and Chunking. If these things cant survive a concrete curb, they surely wont survive in the mountains. Having put another 15k miles on them since my last post, i can say that the siping on the outer lugs is completely gone, leaving only the siping on the inner tread blocks. anytime it...

Nope, same CCSB Ram 2500 6.7 cummins, G56 just 4 years in age difference. rolling across the scales, there was less than 200lbs difference in weight. same tire size, same load rating, same tire pressures. The michelins have a noticeable narrower treadwidth vs traditional AT's. IMO(and everyone...

In keeping with your sentence "The thing is, everyone who disagrees with the title of this post has every valid counterpoint and argument " i have to disagree with your conclusion for off highway uses. These tires came on my 2012 Ram when i bought it. Since they were brand new, i decided to just...

Broverlanding :ROFLMAO: thats amazing, Im stealing that term.

Ordered an MXT275!

http://www.bighornmountaincrawlers.com/2019-bmc-summer-safari.html Come join us for a weekend of exploring the BigHorn Mountains of Northern Wyoming. It will be tons of fun. I will be trailgunning the hunt mountain loop in my XJ.

I pretty much stick with Lifestyle Overland and XOverland and MSO. allot of the others are way to full of them selves and it turns in to an on camera interview or just a contest of who has the better camera.

your deffinetally going to want to add a sector shaft brace in there.

Running them in 35x12.5x15 C on my MJ. Daily driven on pavement 30 miles a day and weekends in the mountains. This winter they have been absolutely superb in snow and ice. They do lack the siping of an all-terrain, but for what they are, they do pretty dang well on icy roads. ~4,000lb rig...

Having had 3 Xj's and an MJ all with the 4.0. There isnt a ton you can do, as much of the mileage comes from driving style. Best mileage "modification" i have found for all 3 xj's is to get rid of anything on the roof. Ditch huge roof baskets, tires and racks. Those easily will kill 3 to 5 mpg...

The half blood got an all new cooling system, new lower control arms from ironman4x4fab and a temp guage that replaces the clock panel. The MJ got new Napier flares installed.

I am running a Viair 450p . great little compressor for the money. i use it almost every weekend and its still humming along great.
