Unloaded my Sprinter van and listed it for sale. It runs great, but can’t pass MA inspection due to rust. Bummer as 2006 was the last year for minimal emissions controls on the five cyclinder diesel, and the last year for the short (118”) wheelbase. So no easy way to replace it.

Would a Cadillac Allard count?

Heinz Guderian harshly criticized Hitler’s decision to build the Pzkw 5 (Panther) and 6 (Tiger), when he could have four Mark 4’s for each, and they were faster and more reliable. He considered the Sherman and long barrel Mark 4’s to be about equal.

Road tested a DL1000 first. Too much weight on the front wheel to be good on soft dirt. Next bike was a 2009 DL650 ABS. Rode 22K and sold it to a guy in NJ, who rode it four years. Then he sold it to a German tourist who flew into Newark, got a cab to his house, loaded his stuff and toured the...

Bought a two year old 2005 Suzuki V-Strom with 93 miles on it. The owner was a shorter guy - about 5’7 - while the V-Strom and other “adventure bikes” tend to have high seats. First bike. On his first ride, he came to an uphill stop sign and dropped the bike, scraping up the plastic fairing...

This is a comprehensive video on the development of the GAA. This video implies Ford copied the Merlin after receiving the blueprints, but this is disputed on several fronts. Ford was the world leader in aluminum casting, and steel casting. Other than being dimensionally similar to the Merlin...

Each generation seems to deride their offspring. The soldiers who fought in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan were every bit as tough and dedicated as their forebears.

We have a third generation (1999-2002) 4Runner and many owners are former Jeep owners. That may be bigger and heavier than you want. ATV’s seem to be around 2,000 lbs so easier to pull out.
