(don't mean to hijack the thread but...) I know a guy who did it, damaged the Cadillac tow'd AND the motor home pretty severely, all because he was just too lazy to get out of the driver's seat and do what he knew he was supposed to do. Eventually his lack of ambition and poor attention to...
Oh yeah, I know what you mean. I've never tried one of those but have always had good results from using a back up camera. I wouldn't fault someone for using one but have hitched and unhitched trailers and 5th wheels enough that I can say that except for extreme conditions usually that is one...
By the term Power Assist Hitch I am assuming you mean a powered jack for the tongue. I would heartily recommend that, for sure. It's a bunch easier to hitch and unhitch, as well as level it up, when you can move the tongue up and down with a switch rather than crank, crank, crank. One...
For what it's worth, it bears mentioning that it's the same with a vehicle being towed w/ a tow bar, like a tow'd behind a motor home; if you try and back up you WILL bend the tow equipment and possibly damage one or both of the vehicles.
I thought I had posted to this thread back when I got my Mav. Just looked through and realized I didn't. Oh well.
I had a really nice 2011 GMC Sierra 2500HD, 6.0L, 4X4 Crew Cab. The thing was in incredible condition for it's vintage and only had 55k miles on the clock. We're moving up to a...
Their "obligation" is to deliver it to you in "as expected" condition when you take delivery. The vehicle is the sole responsibility of FoMoCo and the dealership until money exchanges hands. Consider this: Worry is a misuse of imagination. Seriously, enjoy your new Mav. A meteor could fall on...
Truth of the matter is that it wasn't YOURS until you put your $$$ down and signed your name to the paperwork. If you drop your veh off for service and it has xx,xxx.x miles on it and when you pick it up it has xx,xxx.x +50 miles (or whatever) you probably have a right to know what's going on...
Obviously the OP isn't old enough to remember the vast number of cars sold in the '70s and '80s that were of very poor quality. Many of those vehicles, even some of the high-end models, were laughable in regards to quality and having one be a reliable and usable vehicle after limping up to...
I heard about a company that's making a sound system for EVs so there is some engine sound that coordinates w/ your use of the narrow peddle. Hmmm, maybe I could make my Lariat hybrid sound like a Mustang 5.0!
I can attest to that. One of my former vehicles was a Toyota Tundra that had the 5.7L DOHC engine. Before I got it somebody had put on a SS Borla cat-back dual system on it. It sounded fantastic except at a specific RPM band that was about 200-300 RPM wide where it had a terribly annoying...
