    Which pass? It's a complex diagram. Get a set of chains. For a CUCV, that covers all the squares.

    WA means not summer. So all season good. OR seems to require MTN + Snowflake which iirc is mostly snow tires.

    Have prices gone berserk?

    The market is only the same if people know where it is. I didn't know about this site till I'd been looking on CL for a month or so. And location is likely a factor.

    Have prices gone berserk?

    Advertising and marketing. Everyone wants a "great deal" getting surplus. Used truck on CL? Less so. But the trucks (900 series) I see on CL are priced 10k and sit. The ones less are gone in a week or two.

    M923a1 failure, need input.

    ~15 miles? Not sure where the point the transfer case would be at risk is. (If the tcase is in neutral, the transmission won't be spinning, right?) Do you have a tow bar? (And as importantly a 24V tow light kit)

    You want a wet kit. And I'm about to, but haven't yet.

    How to respond to unsupportive comments?

    Any drive over about 30 min is usually enough to get me the finger. Think it has a bit to do with where ya live. I'd go to the People's Republic of Seattle if I didn't like my accident free record.
