Note from moderator,
Please keep pics to a max 640 width as a favor to those with smaller screens and dial up. "IF" you can not figure out how to make the pics smaller, post them, PM me or hit 'notify moderator' button, say you can not resize pics, and I aka blt2ski/Marty will go in and edit/fix.
Enjoy everyones pics

Finally. The poor ol 04 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.0L just got too tired and was pretty much done at 160k. Would've taken too much money to do anything with it. So the ol wife and I went out "just to look" of course and ended up with this...



2011 Tacoma double cab V6 4x4 SR5 w/21k and 6400lb tow cap. Got it a week before going to Gettysburg PA for 5 days with my Kodiak 195 hybrid. Loaded its roughly 4000lbs. What a difference lemme tell ya. I drove there taking a different route than I normally took. Scenic route with lots of hills and curves - and in the rain. Very good. On the way back I took 116 back which is CRAZY hills. It would have killed my Jeep, seriously. Feels SO much better.
2009 Kodiak 195. Absolute JUNK.

Years ago I saw a fiver being towed by a Ranger... yep, the small truck! And the fiver was not overweight for the Ranger. Really small fivers are around, just not common.

Those Sportchassis are nice trucks. They have nice interior and exterior features. They are nice pullers as long as you don't put too heavy a 5th wheel behind them.

Recently bought a larger TV for national travel. A 2010 Toyota Sequoia Limited.

While the Toyota has crazy amounts of power and slightly more stability than the 2012 Honda Pilot EX-L did (*with low profile, UHP tires...towing the same trailer) its not exactly a night/day difference towing as expected. However, as anticipated, I do feel much better towing nationally with the Sequoia over the Pilot, especially in the elevations.

I also want to note MPG. If I retain the same (sane) speeds I held with the Pilot, typically never seeing 70mph, MPG between the two is very close. But the does Pilot holds a slight edge off interstate, where I could easily get 12mpg. Its also too easy now to go over 70mpg and not feel any difference...except in my wallet.


Buddy of mine has the Sequoia and has been quite happy with it. If you want to see night/day difference go Diesel :D. But understand probably not practically in your case nor do you need it. I find it quite amazing that I'm double your weight (not to mention other large factors) and get the same (12mpg) towing with my rig staying @ 65mph or under ๐Ÿ˜‰

Nice ride nrempt143. I'm sure it is great inside and out. I am kinda sorry to see the dual fender flare go away, but then stuff changes, that's how we tell them apart! Nice truck.


I must have super vision because I see a dually fender on both trucks....? Unless you were talking about how it's been redesigned??


I never like the bloated out fender look. The new wheel well fender flare looks great.
