Not trying to start a "my d!ck is bigger then yours" contest, but my FIL passed recently and left us with a 1971 Ford Clubwagon 12-passenger 1-Ton van, and my brother-in-law with a 1928 Chevy Coupe. While I am not familiar with much from domestic automakers of any vintage, I know I can figure out the Van. But I don't know if my BIL even owns a set of wrenches and the 28 needs work. Ohh boy.

Shameless plug since it's as relevant as it gets here on the GXOR board. Dan Kunz, the GXOR founder himself, joined Chris and me for a podcast recently (incidentally during the Land Cruiser 250 reveal). Would love for y'all to watch/listen!

Currently explaining to my friend that he does not have to buy new wheels if he wants bigger tires. He can just buy bigger tires and put them on the stock wheels.

Anyone ever used a go pro or some other camera with their GX to make videos? Thinking about attempting to do that.
I picked up a Hero 11 a few months back.. so far pretty impressed but still need more time with it. They seem to have mounts for everything

GoPro HERO11 Black Action Camera (Waterproof + Stabilization)
Ultra versatility meets maximum performance in the most powerful GoPro yet—HERO11 Black. New image sensor. Better video stabilization. Shop & save now.
I've used my GoPro a few times on trails. The fisheye lens really flattens out the trail.

Good to know.
that and if you do the 360 video you can make everyone sick on youtube.
Yeah she's a big girl and even though my BIL talked a big game about getting the 28 up and running, I think he realizes that it's not going to be easy by any stretch of the imagination. I wouldn't mind taking it off his hands, but know my FIL would be rolling in his grave if he knew what me and the wife would do with it if we owned it.

Yea, I get that.
My wife just picked up her hundredth screw in a tire. Our kid just started school last week and I'm pretty sure she's getting them on the street near the school, because it's pretty constant. It happened 3 times last year. Anyhow, it's near the edge, so they won't patch it. They've got about 30k miles on them but are in very good shape with plenty of tread depth left. We're just going to replace the one tire, but I'm not happy about it. Not at all.

That's a bummer, especially this time of year when you really don't need any extra BS.

What/where are you using for mounts?
I have an mount stuck to my roof rack fairing.
It's spelled "uffda"

Someone spilled roofing nails on a street here. Had nails in all 4 tires of the Tahoe. There were 6 other people at discount tire getting their fixed too.

Is there an outside chance you have any warranty on them, like from Costco?
Anybody know if the OEM CVs can be easily identified while on the car? I assume it's marked somewhere. My GX just developed a bit of grinding/binding from the driver's side at full lock which sounds like a failing CV. I'm going to order the enhanced remans from CVJ but want to know if I'm getting my core charge back.
