    Detours Off Road Hardware is ghosting me

    Damn. I searched to make sure he was legit when I first ordered. Pelfrybuilt all over again. :Cry:

    Detours Off Road Hardware is ghosting me

    I ordered and paid for a Detours Off Road Hardware (formally Detours of Maine) tire carrier 14 months ago and the dude seems to be ghosting me now. I knew it would be a long wait time. So I asked for updates every few months. He always responds late (like a week later) and comes back with the...

    06-09 LED headlight bulbs. MUST TRY list

    I have an '08 with projectors (and yes, properly aimed). Though it is aftermarket housing. So I caved and bought Morimoto HIDs (35w, 5.5k). The light THROW is almost double that of the Auxbeam LEDs. At the end of my block is a house that the LEDs would barely touch. With HIDs, there is a clean...

    06-09 LED headlight bulbs. MUST TRY list

    I've had these installed for probably a year now. And while I like them for city driving, they barely throw any light past 150ft or so. Highway driving at night feels borderline unsafe at 70mph. I'm wondering if it is due to the 6500k color? I find it hard to believe that these beat out...

    Can someone please help?

    Did you ever find the 615-6H replacement cap?

    06-09 LED headlight bulbs. MUST TRY list

    So am I understanding that these bulbs literally just plug and play if I have an '08? And these are just for the regular headlights (not the high beams), right? Why is this the first I'm hearing about them??

    Public Transport Experiences

    When the Denver light rail first opened to DIA, I took the light rail to get to the airport for a month in an attempt to avoid traffic and not pay parking fees (I lived kinda close to a station in Thornton). I missed 4 out of 5 flights that month because of it. In order, it 1) broke down, 2) hit...

    Books you've read this month

    Just finished "Call of the American Wild: A Tenderfoot's Escape to Alaska". Hated it. Thought it would be like "Into the Wild" (one of my favorites), but it was just a Scottish dude who made an impulsive decision to leave his family for a few months to try to "wing it" in Alaska. The locals...

    Snowboard Rack/Mount

    You can buy oval crossbar attachments for the Yakima 4 FatCat. Just about every snowboard rack makes an attachment for oval bars. I see you're in OKC, I'd recommend a SkyBox or Rocketbox LoPro. Since youll obviously be driving quite a distance to ski. With a box, you can just throw your...

    Pic Request: 255/80/17 w/o spacers, w/ stock wheels

    None. Just pushed back the fender liner with a heat gun. It still rubs the liner slightly in reverse at full lock but you can't even hear it with the windows up.

    Jackets... What your go to?

    NorthFace Thermoball. Weighs less than 14oz. Great on its own or layering. It can be worn from the low 60's down to the upper 30's with just a t-shirt underneath. When it gets 20-30 degrees, I can wear a mid-weight base layer under it and be fine. When I'm snowboarding on those REALLY cold...

    Moving Company or DYI

    I've moved cross country 2 times in 4 years. and moved a total of 3X in those 4 years. I prefer the Uhaul route with hired loaders (2-3 guys, 5 or 6 hours). The in-city move, we paid them to unload too. It was still less expensive than a POD. With that said, I cant imagine PODS on your island...

    OVERLANDING NC: a List of possible Gravel/Off Road Trails (BEEN THERE ANYONE???)

    Join the Carolina 4Runners Off-Road Group on FaceBook. I've done Hurricane Creek. It was easy. It's "one way" but you run into people going the wrong way all the time. Just pull over or stop at a pull off when you see someone coming the wrong way. Worst case, you have to backup 200ft to let...
