    Do we "trust" Texstar brake pads?

    In Soviet Russia, Texstar brake pads don't trust YOU! Sorry been wanting a chance to use one of those. They are most likely on par with OEM... but are EBCs that much more? Ive used EBC before on other cars and Ill probably put them on my LR3 when the time comes. They may cost a little more...

    Planning on buying a 2006 LR3 HSE

    The common problems have pretty much been pointed out in the sticky thread at the top already. The occasional ride height sensor, windshield washer fluid sensor. Leaky sunroofs due to a clogged drain tube, and compressors. I would figure that the more you raise and lower the vehicle the shorter...

    Shelf Road Colorado cruise March 20th

    The one I linked was in the Sangre de Cristo, its called Hermit Pass. There is also one called Hayden Pass. They look like really scenic trails, easy day trip from the Springs.

    I was looking at intelliicast. NOAA only says 20% chance of precip though. If it changes for the worse will try to push back to sunday if ppl can.

    Shelf Road Colorado cruise March 20th

    Rain/snow mix on friday. Original weather report said 50 on sat but now says 35, still partly cloudy. Might come across some snow at the higher altitudes but if its bad we just take Phantom Canyon back instead of Gold Camp. Have a sense of adventure.

    Colorado area folks.

    I am not ready to have boulders taking bites out of my rocker panels and doors so im going to pass on Chinaman for a while lol. The current weather report still says partly cloudy on Saturday although the high temp is now only looking to be 35-40. Still, unless the high altitudes really get...

    Colorado area folks.

    Saturday is supposed to be fairly warm and partly cloudy according to the last report I saw. Might be a bit colder up by Cripple Creek but its not showing much chance of precipitation. If anything there will be some snow on the trail in the higher elevations left over from friday. Unnless they...

    Shelf Road Colorado cruise March 20th

    There is also a nice state park up between Victor and Woodland Park: http://parks.state.co.us/Parks/Mueller/Pages/MuellerHome.aspx Might be worth a look for anybody wanting to take a short day hike or just to check out accomodations for people who enjoy camping once the weather is a little...

    Shelf Road Colorado cruise March 20th

    Taking a cruise up Shelf Road on Saturday March 20th, then back down either Phantom Canyon or Gold Camp Road, all of which are scenic and easily traversed in stock vehicles. The route we take back will depend on what the group wants to do. There will be some time for Spur trails if anybody wants...

    Hankook Dynapro ATMs are $145/tire from discounttire. They are getting good reviews and the price cant be beat, get them before they skyrocket. I have them and am happy I did it.

    Now THAT'S What I'm TALKIN' About!!

    Like me saying watch my ferrari beat this honda insight... ...but, wait, are we comparing speed or who can go longer without filling up the gas tank.

    Now THAT'S What I'm TALKIN' About!!

    That was the video from the original post, and then my response followed. Putting a rwd sports car on ice/snow is not that good of a comparison lol. Like no duh who do you think is going to win. Its not really about the terrain response so much as it is which wheels are turning. Put, I dont...

    Central Colorado late march.

    Yeah I have been watching videos of it. Looks like it can be handled but im not sure if I would attempt it without at least sliders. If I get interest for that saturday, the 20th, ill try to do something a little less complicated.

    Pics of New sliders

    Ummm I just tried it with paint. An image was 3264x2448 and weighed in at 1.48 mb. I used stretch/skew on paint using 30% on both, new image 980x735 and file size is 222kb. Pretty significant reduction in file size.
