PART 3 of 3: An external frame pack will serve most backpackers needs. In fact its usually the best choice vs an internal frame pack despite what many biased salesman and outdoor magazines promote. Thanks to such disinformation, the frame pack is often thought of as a old-fashioned and outdated packing option and the shelves of todays outdoor stores reflect that misguided philosophy. Large frame packs, carrying around 5000 cubic inches, are hard to find and usually have to be ordered off the Internet, if you can find one. Thats too bad because the large frame pack is indeed problem solver for extended trips. Nutnfancys reference large frame backpack is the outstanding Kelty Super Tioga, proven on many an expedition into the high country. Sadly its been superceded by subsequent models (however Tiogas are still available under different nomenclatures) but a review of its features in this three part series could help perspective pack buyers to home in on similarly equipped frame packs. And a pack like this is usually necessary to accommodate large amounts of gear needed for 5 day plus trips (unless minimalist gear is carried). It has lots of advantages over an internal frame pack: lashing capability to frame for all kinds of gear, easier to pack, compartmentalization and pockets aid organization and proper weight distribution, pockets with with a flow-thru back will secure long items (like guns, fishing poles, paddles, saws, etc), excellent ventilation behind back, rigidity …

Blackhawks Heavy Duty Truck Chassis Machine – The Powercage (Part One Of Three)

This is definitely the heaviest car we’ve tested at 5723 lbs. The Ford Expedition: The Ford Expedition was introduced in 1997 as a replacement to the Bronco. It was previously slotted between the smaller Ford Explorer and the larger Ford Excursion, but as of the 2005, it is Ford’s largest SUV. It is the second Ford to use the Expedition name, as it was part of the Explorer Sport’s trim models in 1995. The Expedition offers up to eight passengers’ seating and a V8 engine, similar to the Lincoln Navigator. Over 1500000 Expeditions have been sold since its introduction. The second generation Ford Expedition was introduced in 2002 for the 2003 model year and featured an all-new 4-wheel independent suspension with “hydroformed” fully boxed frame that was 70 percent stiffer. The all-new rear suspension was multi-link independent and reduced rear unsprung weight by 110 pounds, improving the suspension’s wheel travel and its ability to track uneven terrain or road surfaces for improved control and ride quality. The Second generation was powered by a 5.4 liter Triton engine which produced 260 hp and 365 ft-lbs of torque. The Expedition had an available heavy-duty trailer tow package for a best in class trailer towing capability of 8900 lbs.

You thought Chrysler was going to ignore the Hemi in the face of politically correct fuel miserliness? Not so—in fact, the biggest series-production Hemi V-8 just got bigger, and all 392 glorious cubic inches will be found first in the 2011 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392. The new engine is basically a bored and stroked version of the SRT 6.1-liter V-8; it now displaces 6.4 liters. The new mill’s other important numbers, as found in the 2011 Challenger: 470 hp at 6000 rpm and 470 lb-ft of torque at 4200. Those are increases of 45 hp and 50 lb-ft, with peak power occurring 200 rpm lower than before and max torque 600 lower. We’re also told the new engine has a broader torque curve than the outgoing 6.1 Hemi, with 90 more lb-ft available at 2900 rpm. While all 2011 SRT8 Challengers will get the new 6.4-liter, they will use carry-over transmissions, which means a five-speed automatic or an optional six-speed manual. (The engine—if not the three-pedal option—will make it into an SRT8 version of the new-for-2011 Charger, as well.) In a nod to, ahem, politically correct fuel miserliness, auto-equipped SRT8s will get cylinder deactivation that can idle four pistons at low load; that feature previously had been reserved for cars with the 5.7-liter, non-SRT Hemi. Along with the new engine, the SRT engineers have given the Challenger’s chassis some help with new dampers accompanied by revised suspension geometry. The steering is now quicker, too, and uses a heavy-duty hydraulic pump …

PART 1 of 3: Your hands are delicate appendages. Seriously, it takes little to cut, knick, scrape, slice, gash, or abrade that pink fleshy thing you call a hand. Therefore in tactical operations gloves make a lot of sense. Whether you are a cop, pilot, soldier, or civilian sheepdog, you can benefit from glove wearing. They protect your hands, keep them warmer for better dexterity, often give you a better grip, and provide better grasping stamina. This three part series covers several Damascus Gear and Hatch brand tactical glove models. As I cover their features, I also weave in my own glove experiences, preferences, and Philosophy of Use ie the features and considerations that might make your glove purchase useful in your operations. There are MANY good tactical gloves out there and this series in no way attempts to cover even a fraction of them. Instead I cover some relatively HIGH VALUE tactical glove models sold by Skaggs Public Safety Uniforms and Equipment store (who hosted the review). Be careful not to overpay for your tactical gloves. Several high end models exceed $60 in price and offer no more capabilities, better fit, or durability than the models shown. Key features of a successful a general purpose tactical glove design include: trim and tight FIT (that provides reloading and writing-level dexterity), smooth palm, synthetic leather or suede construction (dries faster), reinforced and well-stitched finger tips, easy on/off, quick attachable and stable cuff …
