This is a silly thread, and almost smells like buyers remorse. Most lift kits, with included suspension are going to run over $3,000 w/labor. So for me, the additional 7k for the opted 4x4 is a no...

I am convinced that a standard 2-3 inch lift is often more important (or just as important) than 4wd, itself. It’s a real game changer on the Chevy and Sprinter. I’ve seen positive feedback on the...

Lithium Upgrade?

I’ve recently become smitten with the Pleasure-Way Ontour 2.0. (Ford w/3.5 Ecoboost). It’s just shy of 20 feet in length, and really resembles the layout of the Ascent.

Kltk1,
I'm with you on Thor's build quality regarding the sequence. I just don't get it. No positive latches to be found...all the cabinets felt oddly light/flimsy.
