I just sent the money to pickup a full set of factory Nissan all weather (read rubber) floor mats for the Xterra. I like the factory carpet ones I have but these will be much better for sand and mud!
Last purchase was sliders, Next purchase will be materials to start custom bed rack for RTT and gear.
I kept my original wheels and road tires. Bought nice set of used cheap WRX wheel, had them powder coated black and put the KO2s on them.

It all depends on how strict the restrictions are. In BC, Washington, and Oregon seems like any none propane-sourced flame can be a big no no.

Last thing purchased and arguably the most important thing you should have while overlanding Adventure Medical Kits Sportsman Series Grizzly Medical Kit . At the same time I purchased a ALPS Mountaineering Dining Table because wifey needs more table space for meals.
Next up, I hope a water tank with 12volt pump for my trailer.

Comms. Just ordered the other day, only thing that shipped so far is the antenna. Not sure yet what's next.
Just purchased AND INSTALLED the new Drake Hood clamps on my JKU... Super nice looking, super well built, and "hood flutter" is GONE !!!
Next mod (upgrade) will most likely be window rain guards, or cowl armor...

It's been an expensive month, but I am on several weeks of trips soon and am pretty excited to be geared up.
50qt ARB fridge fits perfectly where my 2nd row middle seat went, Used some brackets where the seat bolts are for the tie downs.

Previous was a nonstick pan coz the wife says so.
To complement that an AEV 2.5 lift is now on its way and 35s to match, coz the wife says so!

Rear bumper and the other skids are built and going to the metalizer place now, should be here (shipped directly to my powder coater) on the 2nd or 3rd. Need to have all of it installed and ready by the 11th for the OB midwest meet (a 7 hour drive each way!)
I already had the wiring and tie down points ready for the fridge for the last year or so, just needed to pull the trigger on the fridge. ARB has a deal this month for a free transit bag for the fridge, so that will get here in 8 weeks.
We have an awesome 4x4 shop in Dubuque, Iowa called "Complete Offroad". They are an ARB dealer, I bought the fridge there. The first project of 2018 will be the ARB front summit bull bar, xeon platinum wireless winch and arb intensity 8" led lights, etc. that will be the bulk of the projects other than the 100w solar setup (and acting wind faring for the roof top cases)
Then just more trips! Starting in a week I have about 5 weeks in a row of trips with some work mixed in between. Would be really fun to go on a long trip and just work on the road (I am telecommuter anyway)... heck I could travel between our offices . (Ames IA, Denver, Boulder, Bozeman MT, even Scottsdale AZ)
Well, today I have to add to this thread again and it sucks. Front brakes are due, so that is all ordered, but I may have a bad hub bearing also. I get some kind of squeak and ticking when I turn tight. That or a CV /half shaft.
So this week, front brake sensors, rotors, pads, hub bearings (53k on the rig, original front brakes and bearings, not bad for a 6.5k+ lbs LR4).
Let's hope that solves it and its not CV's.

I've gone a bit nuts lately. New stuff.
- Adventure Tool Company ShopRoll (super nicely made product, USA made)
Post a picture of that tool roll once you have it configured I would be curious to see what you stuffed it with and how it came out, looks real nice!
