No, I'm not getting ANOTHER Grand, lol.  But a good buddy of mine out in Vegas is trying to find a reasonable Grand for some mild trail use.  I found a ZJ in Redlands that's interesting, but it's super far for either of us to take a look at.  Would anybody be able to have a look-see? -TJ

It wasn't the spinning the motor I had a problem with (mine actually was pretty decent power-wise with the later 3V V10 and a full Banks kit, I pulled a 20' flatbed with 2 RZRs with it a few times and it was "okay"), it was just white-knuckle if there was any wind, if you got passed by a medium...

So, Sunday we decided to strip the hood and start over.  The weird shiny spot in the middle had gotten worse, and adhesion was poor.  Stripping was easier than I expected, prob because adhesion.  WD-40 turned it into a nasty sludge, but a plastic RZR blade and a pressure washer took care of it: ...

Obviously started the day with a quiet moment and some somber reflection.  As many have been saying, I never want another 9/11/2001 but I sure miss the America of 9/12/2001.  It's been 20 years, and I think it's hard to say the country has moved in any positive direction.   Other than that...

I bought a home in Vegas recently, after living in CA basically my whole life.  We scored a great price (especially given this market) on a great property that really fits our somewhat unique needs.  It has a big RV garage/shop, trailer parking, and a good blank-slate for a backyard along with a...

I got one last trip in right before they closed the forests.  It sucks, but I understand why they're doing it.  That said, decades of mismanagement from all the agencies involved and ineptitude/bureaucracy at the high levels of the various fire agencies that got us where we are.  To be 110%...

Yup, I'm one of the fools he camps with on that trip.  He just refreshed the motor before last season, it was still running just getting a little tired.  Because you love to include random pics, here's a couple pics from our group last season that your old car was a part of: Season pass on...

I'm sure they'll straighten it out @dbart, it just could take some time.  I'm with you though, I haaaaaated the 2020s when they came out, but I've seen a few "built" right and they're growing on me a tiny, tiny bit.  I do love the new RAMs, we had a 2019 1500 for a while: And it's the nicest...

What these guys ^^^ said.  My 20' Universal was ~7700 unloaded.  It had the toolbox, the fuel (60 gallons underneath, 94 inside) and water tanks, little air compressor, and that's it inside.  No actual toys, tools, fuel or water onboard.  It was a "ramp-style" lift too, not a hydraulic lift.  ...

I posted above, but I paid $34k (plus TTL).  New it was a bit over $52k, in fact I was able to get the original window sticker:  Pre-COVID-pricing I would guess a little closer to $30k.  That said, others I found with similar mileage (this one had just over 26k miles when I picked it up) were...

Not that anybody cares, this is what the interior is like on this thing: -TJ

Any idea what it weighs loaded?  5-10 miles I wouldn't worry about much, depending on those 5-10 miles.  Power, stopping, stability etc. I'd all be 110% confident in for that drive.  Honestly my biggest worry would be tongue weight and the factory hitch.  It's a Class IV and as-configured mine...
