    Tires for winter

    All of the above info on studded tires are accurate. If I didn't have to climb a mountain everyday in the winter I'd stick with standard winter tires. I use them so I don't have to throw chains on when hard pack roads get icy, especially in early/late winter when it rains on the hardpack...two...

    Tires for winter

    Hitch bicycle rack suggestions

    WTB FWC Fleet

    Answering your question. I bought a used Bobcat. I was open to any (shell) that would fit my truck. Mine is a 2014 customized shell with furnace and front battery set-up. Shells are light weight so the overhang on my shortbed works well.

    Thinking About Replacing The Ranger

    The antenna screws off easily and their is a shorter (stubby) version available. I have a diesel. I can't see any advantage to the gasser. My Duramax Colorado doesn't even downshift on inclines with my Bobcat.
