For what it's worth, we went from a Highlander to an F-150 and can't believe the difference. Mileage is about the same but everything else is so much better, from acceleration, smooth riding with the...

Maybe by the time you get there, things will be different, but as of now the Canadian border, at least in the west, is closed to leisure travel.

I've wondered about the etiquette of doing this. For some reason, I feel guilty doing so even though it's potable water and there is nothing to worry about.

While I understand not liking the fee, six bucks is pretty small potatoes given the luxury that most of us have who get to travel with trailers.

That being said, your voice is in your two...

Pictured here is the system for attaching any bike carrier with a two-inch mount. Bikes bounce a bit on bumpy roads, but it's held up well. We have a Thule two-bike rack that we bought from REI, but...

We lost power last week to a freak early snowstorm. We had the house wired for a generator last year. Went out and bought one, 5500/6750 watts, and had a cozy house as the temp dipped into the 20s at...

That sort of design is something that is relatively new, with a name of some state attached to the letter 'J'. It is intended to cut down on accident. While it doesn't give those of us with trailers...

Pullouts on Washington's two-lane roads are of a wide variety, but most don't require coming to a stop. They might be shorter passing lanes, a super wide shoulder, something of that sort. They are...
