    Mid-size vs Full-size truck setup

    Agree with @Ozarker... towing a trailer isn't that bad and you'll be amazed at some of these smaller off road trailers are quiet maneuverable in really tight spaces. I actually enjoy towing a trailer and the challenges of maneuvering it around. Sort of unlocks another driving skill that most...

    Mid-size vs Full-size truck setup

    @jaywo I think the only thing that's missing is really how it's very likely that the new family dynamic is going to change things such as your lifestyle and possibly perspective on the places you go. For us, doing trips now involves managing school and activity schedules as well as our work...

    Mid-size vs Full-size truck setup

    We are a family of 4 (now our girls are 8 and 6 year old) + wife and myself. My wife and I remote camped a lot before we had children so we were comfortable roughing it. Once we had kids, we started camping with them when they were around 8-10 months old at conventional campsites and then moved...

    ~SOLD~2013 Adventure Trailer (AT Overland) Chaser Off-road trailer ~SOLD~

    Running 33’s on a D5

    Do you have any issues with the Duratracs rubbing on the front passenger side wheel well? I'm running the same 275/55R20 profile and I get a slight rub when I go full passenger side lock. Nothing major besides very minor cosmetic damage but I'm just curious I'm the only one with this issue.

    They are Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac 275/55R20. They rub just very slightly at full passenger side lock (turning right) but no rubbing in the other direction. I still need to pull the wheel off to inspect where it's hitting.

    Are any of the newer LR's capable?

    I'm an owner of a 2017 Discovery HSE Td6 and I absolutely love it. My other 4x4 is a 2011 FJ Cruiser (which I'm sadly in the process of selling) and the main reason for switching over to the Discovery 5 was for my growing family (have a toddler & infant at the moment). The reality for me these...
