Not a rant about Law Enforcement, if that’s your thing then go elsewhere. I was headed home this morning around 0200 from covering some OT. It is less than a 3 mile drive from work to my home. It is all small town roads. So street lights every few miles. With one stop light and one stop sign...

I did a search and rather than hanging onto a different thread I think this is a more open ended but less generic question. What is a small form factor GMRS radio I could put on the accessory bar in the window? I would prefer a 50W transceiver but something this size is what I am looking for...

Is this normal?

Well my windshield finally got a rock chip and a super small crack. Has anyone used those do-it-yourself resin kits? If so, which ones are suggested? I’m not expecting perfection nor am I going to spend $1,000 on a new windshield.

I can’t be mad they’ve been good for 2.5 years and for $120 shipped.

Toyota Recalling 381,000 Tacoma's That's an interesting recall reason, for the rear axle.

I would think it would almost help Ford again. Although historically the cars built in KY have been very profitable but currently with the severely lagging sales on full sized trucks they are having trouble moving them. IMHO all their full sized trucks and SUV's are waaaaay over priced. And I...

Latest Takata Airbag Recall I thought this would be completed by now. My old JK and my current PW were recalled for airbags years ago. This just seems to keep on coming. Not surprised it is Toyota with another round of airbag recalls for this.

Wow, oil change prices in my area have exploded or am I just missing something? I had the oil changed in mid November in my Bronco 2.3 with full-synth 5W30 for $55. Last Friday I got the oil changed in my Spark 1.4 with full-synth 0W30 for $72 with a $25 off coupon! Same place did both.

Stellantis Skipping Some Auto Shows I enjoy going to the Chicago Auto Show yearly in FEB, but this year there will be no Jeep nor Ram there. Kinda late in the game for them to pull out...

Now meet the Rivian of the River. I don’t know why but I’m sure this will get deleted for no reason.

This is how it started last time. Dash lite up with almost all the driver aides having a fault this morning. They cleared themselves a few minutes later but this is how it started last time… driver aide faults showing and clearing… then all failing and staying INOP… then the head unit goes...

“Confirmed” to be built in the old Illinois plant the US introduction of a small pickup. I’m a little surprised they are going to compete against themselves with the weird looking Gladiator. https://www.thedrive.com/news/confirmed-ram-midsize-pickup-will-be-built-at-reopened-belvidere-plant

Slightly more info for a rumor. And good to hear. Glad it is not a useless full electric. https://minivanusa.com/2025-ford-bronco-plug-in-hybrid/

I am going to start with a couple fails from near a decade ago. I was out in some ungoverned land next to a public outdoor shooting range. I was in my old Explorer and one of my Soldiers was in his old rated out Chevy 1500. There were some tank traps the Jeep driver didn't see or didn't...

Found on Reddit from FB per OP.

Let's see if this goes over better than the 1991 Braptor I posted. 2004 Bronco. https://www.thedrive.com/news/this-diy-ford-bronco-is-built-on-a-2004-f-150-and-you-know-what-it-works I rather like it.
