    GEN 2 Need wheel and tire suggestions for the Desert

    Tore a sidewall on my original tires. I was going to get new ones in the spring anyway… I read somewhere there is a “37” tire that’s actually 36-1/2” and doesn’t run. Any one know what this would be? Any other advice for tires for the Vegas area desert? D or E? I am just a newbie to this...

    Railroad Strike

    Railway Labor act requires strikes to be authorized by the gov’t. We in the airlines are governed by the same. This, any such union vote is somewhat meaningless. With the consolidation over the last couple decades, no strike that will cripple the economy will be allowed. And particularly not...

    Anyone use a truck cover for outside parking?

    Similar situation - going back to work soon, and my truck will be at the airport for days. Wanting a good cover that can fit snugly, and deal with potential winds. Truck is in the drive otherwise, partial shade from a tree but that’s it.

    Pismo Beach August 2022

    Understand the air down… how much difference with different tread patterns? Never done sand, but I’d like to (when ever I get my truck back!).

    Llumar Air/IRX window tint and inside temps

    Sorry, just saw this. I got it done at Glassy Business Window Tint. 8840 W Russell Rd just off 215. They do a ton of vehicles, but also business/residential window tinting. Little Jimmy has a Raptor, Big Jimmy has a F250 Tremor. Both tricked out. Not sure how they are with prices, as he is...

    New Raptor Owner Vegas

    Welcome! I’m in Henderson, and just getting back to life after a few medical side tracks. I’m anxious to start exploring again - went out with John once and had a great time! He didn’t share any Barista info/advice though…

    Llumar Air/IRX window tint and inside temps

    I did Llumar IRX as well… windshield made a huge difference! I can’t remember the degree of tint, but the ceramic does the trick. They advised going darker wouldn’t make a difference in heat. So I only went enough to make it hard to tell what’s inside the back. Vegas traffic - gotta see...

    Dirt, Rocks, Weeds, the usual

    Turbo vehicles do so much better in the thin air. So much less wind resistance (air density is not linear - 18,000’ is 1/2 atmosphere)

    How high can a Raptor jump?

    Where was this?

    For those running Ford beadlocks

    May be a stupid question, but what about the inside/opposite sidewall? Not for looks, but if to air down and keep the tire on the rim… don’t both sides have to be addressed? It is it mostly a turning issue, and the outside is the important area?

    A Friday Night Stroll in the Ugly Azzzz Desert

    Raptor group in Reno area, as well as a lot of Adventure riders, and from their posts that looks like a great area. Like John says though, Vegas is a good base camp for wonderful excursions in any direction!
