    All Aluminum enclosed trailers-what does everyone have?

    Legend doesn’t have a deck-over. Just the 8.5 Trailmaster with wheel wells inside. I never had any damage to my fenders. I had over 14,000 km on mine when I sold it.

    How is everyone doing with their eco boost turbo 1/2 tons?

    I have close to 80K on my 2011. Love it, but did have the intercooler issue. It was replaced under warranty but the problem didn't go away. Later found out all 6 coils were arced out. 6 new coils and plugs and it's ruining perfect. The mileage improved too. Driving to work (city / highway mix)...

    Enclosed trailer advice.

    I also recommend contacting Ron (aka Firefly) at Paradis Motorsports (780-970-4940). He is a dealer for Legend all aluminum trailers, and can go through all the options available. You can look through what he has in stock or he can custom order form Legend. He has an awesome draftsman that can...

    Ford ECO Boost Performance Add ons

    I have the Air Aid intake on mine and it works well. I got mine early on and there wasn't mich to choose from. I'm also looking at a 5 Star programmer. What I like is that they do their testing and calibration while pulling a 11,000 lb trailer.

    Diesel vs Gas

    I've never got the rated economy with any vehicle I've owned, so I wasn't surprised with my Eco.

    Diesel vs Gas

    I get about 14.6 L/100km city/highway mix commuting to work with my Eco. Pulling my 27' enclosed it ranges between 22 to 25 L/100km depending on the wind. That's with 3.73 gears.

    Diesel vs Gas

    I didn't expect Prius mileage either. The small tank is my only complaint, and that issue was addressed after 2011. That, and feeling my manhood slip away when I'm parked next to my buddies idling diesel.... but i get over it.

    Creativity in Towing

    That blows my mind that he was allowed to drive away like that. Meanwhile my buddy and I have a cop pulling us over to check the overhang on his sled deck with a tape measure....

    Diesel vs Gas

    I love mine. 3 others in the parking lot at work and their owners feel the same. I share magnet's opinion on towing. Pull my 27' enclosed easily.

    Go Pro Sunlight + Snow light washout fix

    When I first got my GoPro 3 Black it was glitchy. The firmware update seemed to solve all that for me. WiFi definitely sucks down batty life so I don't always use the remote. I had a big problem with washout on my GoPro 2 on bright sunny days, but the new one works great. Half the time in this...

    Summit Series Enclosed Trailer -- Opinions?

    Extra space is nice but the lack of white knuckles on windy and icy highways is priceless. Just a different point of view.:beer:

    How are the ford ecoboosts for towing?

    My Eco has absolutely no trouble in the hills towing. Most of the time its purring along at under 2000 rpm except for the very steep hills. On a steep hill it will shift down once to about 2600 rpm then your on your way. No need to floor it. Not sure where all this "in the hills" stuff is coming...

    Diesel in a 1/2 ton - 2014 Ram 1500

    I can understand Ford not having any plans to go diesel with the Eco, but looks like Chevy doesn't have any plans either. At least for now. Ford, Chevy and Toyota: No Plans for Diesel Half-Tons | AutoGuide.com News

    What are your thoughts on the Poo belt drive good or bad?

    I'm happy with mine. No problems. Rode mine and my friends 2011 Pro for comparison. My 13 felt more lively. The 2011 just felt like it took slightly longer to get up to speed. Was that because of the belt, any engine refinements, or other factors? Don't know for sure, but I have no complaints.

    EZ-STEER Powersteering kit for ATV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!

    I got a kit from superatv for my 2012 rzr last summer. My only complaint is that the splined connection on the shaft that connects to the steering rack wasn't machined right. The hole for the cross bolt wasn't drilled in the right spot. However after a bit of filing I got the shaft to fit. Since...
