My response is to the USA. "Mr. Obama, send in more bombers. Wipe this scum off the face of the earth. Don't stop until th...

Many people have a camera fitted on the back of their van, some regard them as a useful rear view device, a supplement to the mirrors, others regard them as just a reversing tool.When our van was delivered, the camera was adjusted to look down, it was perfect for reversing, giving a good close in view wit...

We have a2013 Pajero which states in can tow 3ton with a ball weight under 180. It has been suggested by a dealer that he can bring the ball weight down by moving the water tank and battery to about 240 and then when we load it should be around 160. Any thoughts in this . It is a 21' van with standard suspension...
