I have a 2017 F150 with the 2.7 eco and the 6 speed. I currently have 143k and haven't had any major issues. Steering wheel control module had to be replaced under warranty. My major complaint is the plastic oil pan. They're single use technically. Once they've been torqued, if you take them off...

This gal at least seems to have honestly thought she was shooting a wolf and it looks like she was charged at least. Hopefully they can get something done civilly with whoever shot...
I've kept mine in the garage for years in Oklahoma. I put a safe heater rod, bags of dessicant and another dehumidifier that you have to plug in to recharge occasionally. I check all my guns, even the ones I don't shoot occasionally and clean them all yearly. Haven't seen any rust in anything...
When I was started going with my dad in the late 80's and mainly the 90's I only got to go whitetail hunting in a few different parts of Oklahoma. The hunting was much worse then it is now. I would tell mom when we got home if we saw a doe. We didn't have a lot of money and were hunting public...
I'm really surprised nobody has brought up the 223 thread already.
Just keep one rifle and get the nicest scope you can. That's what I would do. I don't even start a new rifle unless I know I either already have an optic or have the money for a nice optic. I've had good luck with Leupold, SWFA...
Man do yourself a favor and try a pair of Hoka anacapa hiking boots or one of their others. They don't need a break in and they're some of the most comfortable I've tried.
A buddy of mine bought a pair of crispi to go on a backpack mountain bear hunt with me last year and I talked him into...
I was indicating that their could be serious issues with government mandated four day work weeks and used Friday, a day most people would like to be off, as an example.
This is happening in a lot of traditionally red states, just on a larger scale in mountain west. Mainly due to folks fleeing liberal policies and unaffordable living costs in blue states.
I was talking to an acquaintance the other day and she said, "I just feel like the country could do more...
I wouldn't suggest trying to backpack for antelope. The terrain and the hunt, it's really not necessary. They are fun to hunt though.
Mule deer is a good start or black bear. Try to make a plan and just go. You'll figure out what gear you do or don't like pretty quick. You could always just...
Very true. Finding a reliable hunting partner now that my dad kinda aged out of doing anything but hunting whitetail has been pretty hard.
I usually drop pins of where I'm parking and where I plan on camping.
I'm about to do a solo hunt out west for the third year in a row. I've hunted out west several times in a few different states over the last ten years. I've hunted whitetail solo in Kansas and Oklahoma most my adult life. The whitetail hunts are usually just day hunts, now that we don't have a...
Me and my dad bedded a nice buck at about 1200 yards. We were game planning on how to execute the stalk and watched a side by side illegally drive up to the group on the BLM in New Mexico and start blasting. Dad ended up shooting a buck in a different area that evening, but another guy in the...
I'm hunting an area that's relatively new to me this year in Colorado for third rifle. I got tired of chasing point creep in my target unit. It's going to be around the Gunnison gorge area. I've hunted a few different areas in New Mexico and Colorado for mule deer, a couple units for pronghorn...
