    Buying advice

    If you plan on owning one of these trucks in Colorado, you should be aware that the state will not allow you to drive it on the roads. It's a new law there, and spreading among other states. As a result, you can not register it for use on highways. Only for off-road. I know a guy in Colorado...

    3126 and c7 video on a CAT update

    Seen the video. Adept Ape is one smart cookie. Definitely worth investing in protecting those injectors. IMHO I believe the IFS Kit is more crucial than the CAT fix.

I've seen pictures doing a lot of work with snow plows and thought maybe I could do the same with a small dozer blade and bucket loader? Anyone seen solutions for that? Sent from my...

    Run Flat vs Second Spare Tire

    What about carrying inner tubes? If the tire is punctured would an inner tube work? You could carry a box of them. They can be installed in the field. Maybe not even need a spare (although I'd still bring one.) Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk

    Great idea. I'll check it out. One thing I was wondering is does the CTIS system already check and monitor the tire pressure? Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk

    Never driven the I-44. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll take a look at the map. RE: The MREs, I'm swinging by Walmart and buying a basic 12v cooler to carry goods with me! Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk
