Let The Modding Resume!

Supermoto is a motorcycle style built for mixed surfaces—typically combining dirt-bike agility with street-legal handling. It’s known for quick steering and good traction on rough or twisty roads, which is why it’s mentioned as ideal for a gravel, narrow, turn-heavy route.

An aftermarket exhaust is a non-factory exhaust system installed to change sound, weight, and sometimes performance. Riders often choose them to reduce heat, improve flow, or tailor the noise level—especially to avoid excessive “drone.”

KTM is the Austrian motorcycle manufacturer behind the warranty rules being discussed. In this segment, the speaker is describing how KTM’s warranty can be affected by modifications and where service work must be performed.

Starlink is SpaceX’s satellite internet service. In the episode, they’re discussing how Starlink’s in-motion “standby” data plan affects what they can do while driving, like using maps and getting basic connectivity.

Google Maps satellite view lets users examine an area using aerial imagery to plan routes and choose entrances/exits. Here it’s used to help with trailer parking and selecting the correct turnaround spot.

The Ford Bronco is a rugged SUV built for off-road driving, with versions designed to handle rough trails and uneven terrain. It often comes up in conversations about capable SUVs because it’s meant to be more than just a daily driver. In a podcast, it may be mentioned alongside other vehicles when discussing what’s practical, what’s fun, or what’s being used for specific trips.

Lincoln is Ford Motor Company’s luxury brand, positioned above mainstream Fords. In this segment, the hosts debate who buys Lincoln models today and how the brand’s market appeal has shifted over time.

The Lincoln Navigator is a large, body-on-frame luxury SUV known for comfort and towing capability. Here it’s mentioned in the context of depreciation—how quickly its value drops compared with other vehicles.

Depreciation is how fast a vehicle loses value over time. The hosts are using it as a shorthand for resale risk—some models (like the Navigator/Aviator) are perceived to drop in price faster than others.

The Lincoln Aviator is a mid-size luxury SUV in Lincoln’s lineup, typically smaller than the Navigator. In this segment it’s grouped with the Navigator when discussing depreciation and resale value.

The Lincoln Town Car is a full-size luxury sedan historically known for comfort and a smooth ride. The hosts specifically praise it as a “comfortable four-door” and mention its reputation for limo service, tying it to why someone might want one.

“Off-road” describes driving or riding on unpaved surfaces like dirt, gravel, or trails rather than paved highways. The speaker contrasts it with “in any car,” implying the route/terrain is more about scenery and adventure than extreme technical difficulty.

I-70 is a major U.S. Interstate highway running through Colorado, commonly used as the main approach to mountain towns like Glenwood Springs and toward Aspen-area access roads. Here it’s mentioned as the route context before cutting off toward narrower canyon roads.

Potholes are a major real-world hazard for suspension, tires, and wheels—especially on trucks and off-road vehicles. Repeated impacts can lead to alignment issues, bent wheels, or damage to tires and shock components.

Off-road convoys rely on two-way radios for coordination—especially at night or in snow where visual cues are limited. If radios fail, spacing and decision-making degrade quickly, increasing the chance of someone getting stuck or blocked.

Rock crawling is a slow, technical off-road driving style where the vehicle climbs and descends obstacles like boulders and uneven rock. It relies heavily on traction, tire grip, and careful throttle/brake control rather than speed.

Skid plates are protective metal or composite panels mounted underneath a vehicle to shield vulnerable components from rocks and debris. For off-road builds, they’re a major safety/usage indicator and are worth photographing to prove the work was done correctly.

“Bone stock” means the vehicle is essentially unmodified from the factory. In selling contexts, it often appeals to buyers who want reliability and originality rather than a heavily modified build.

The Rubicon refers to the Rubicon Trail in California, one of the most famous off-road routes in the U.S. Mentioning it signals serious off-road capability and a “real test” environment rather than light trail driving.

A tailgate is the hinged door at the back of a pickup truck that swings down to help load and unload cargo. In this segment, they’re talking about using the tailgate as support so something can fit safely in the truck bed.

Easter Jeep Safari is an annual off-road event in Moab where Jeep enthusiasts and manufacturers bring special builds to run trails. The conversation implies Michael is going for that event, which is why they’re discussing timing and whether it’s happening.

“Mods” is shorthand for modifications—changes made to a vehicle to alter appearance, performance, or functionality. In car culture, modding can range from simple cosmetic upgrades to suspension, wheels/tires, and engine-related changes.

An airbag (in this context) is the air spring that supports the vehicle and provides the lift/leveling function. It works with the compressor and valves to adjust ride height on demand.

A recall is a manufacturer-mandated repair for a safety or compliance issue. The discussion suggests they’re waiting for a specific recall to be completed and are tracking it through the app and dealership scheduling.
