    To supercharge or not...that is the question...

    All, I was wanting your insight into my latest conundrum regarding my 3gen 4runner. I have noticed that towing my Outlaner Sherpa II through Kansas is manageable, however, towing this through the Ozarks is a different story. The V6 just didn't have the muscle to power up the hills. So I have...

    I have read that prolonged storage of a trailer can be bad for the tires. Due to the lack of heat from use, the oils within the tires can deteriorate. What do you all recommend? I rotate the tires on my vehicle every time I change the oil (3500 mile intervals). Would you recommend that I do...

    All, I am going to pull the trigger on an Outlander Sherpa II trailer this Spring. I was wondering what 'kind' of tire to get. I have Bridgestone Dueler Revo AT that are 'P' rated on my 4runner. Should I go with these 'P' rated ones or get the 'LT' rated ones? Thanks in advance for your...
