Some of my best. A typical night with the 3 and 1 year old bathing (mom took pic, she was watching the kids obviously), not a bender. rough_night_at_smith_household.JPG And me when Katie makes her famous OMG cake. steve_katie_OMG.jpg Dude, that would make an awesome avatar, when every you decide to...

Steve ..thanks posting the link. I like the quick-n-easy rackmount solution and took note when I saw your set up. Does it scratch your paint? over time? Mike, all you need to carry is a 6f hose to transfer your fuel to your main tank! the old fashion way .... prime it w/ your mouth. I already do an...

One thing I never liked about my current G situation is the rack. It is big and bulky, although lightweight, is a bit cumbersome in mounting and dismounting. I have only used it to carry something once, so its primary use is to hold my spare fuel cans. While at the Oregon G-treffen, Steve Smith was ...

Keep in mind we are a bit limited with the powerplants in our 460s. My 280 is at 150hp or so, while a G500 is pulling 295hp. Keeping your G's performance, as designed by the engineers, means about a 30-30.5 inch tire with the alloy wheel. I chose 31 being the rebel that I am. :o Bigger tires, howeve...

Could that "special" pickup line on the 280 be a ventilation line ? I have not had mine out. I did notice distinct part numbers for the 300 and the 280, so there is some difference. Going from gas to diesel should be a no brainer like Chris said. Going from diesel tank to gasser might have...

If you are happy somewhat with the performance of your 230 with 31s, there is no benefit going bigger with occasional offroad use. I run 31s on my 280 and that works for me and my offroad excursions out here. I have not ran into a situation where I wish I had bigger tires....yet. In addition, I do n...

I am unfamilliar with the two(?) transfer cases used on the 463s. Is there performance differences between the "manual" shifted versus the electronic shifted ? I have always shyed away from electronic shifted 4x4 systems on domestic trucks but soley on the fact that I grew up with those th...

Minh, these guys have been doing custom wheels for years. I was considering widening a set of steel wheels until the cost was offset by new purchase of Borbet. Just a thought.
