Just tested out using 2 Big Agnes 25x78 air mats side by side with the other half. "Lashed" them together simply by using a queen size fitted sheet and it seemed to work well. We had an air core and a q-core deluxe. The other half wasn't a huge fan of these mats, but I suspect that was due to...
Definitely not a huge fan of the cluttered dash with all the mounts. Had a vector bar in my JKUR with minimal mounts and was not a fan of even the plain bar. Functional, yes. But not a fan of cluttered crap.
It all is weather/temperature/climate dependent. Typically, I would suggest having at least an extra change of clothes, but 2 changes isn't overkill. Clothes get wet, worn, or you just have an option that works better for the conditions.
Camping in Montana in August, I had lighter winter gear...
I too had a Coleman multifuel stove. Kept getting tired of how much fuel I was using, having to pressurize it, leaky issues like you experienced. Fixed the stove but it wasn't enough for me to keep from buying a vintage propane stove to fix up. Best decision was to go propane with a remote line...
Like @KonzaLander said, GMRS communications are not limited to in-brand communications. Much like CB's, ham radios, and really any radios, it's all based on frequency.
I responded to this thread a while ago. Things have changed a bit. I tend to go overboard with cooking at home. On the trail, I keep it easy/simple, flavorful, and it usually ends up being things we don't normally eat at home with the exception of some overlap. Anything in a tortilla or wrap...
I have tried many methods for making coffee while away from home. Honestly, I get the most consistent coffee if I bring my Stanley Adventure French press with me because that's what I use at home. Otherwise I am actually pretty partial to the new trend of coffee "tea" bags for the ease of use...
Take it from someone who has ran a Kuat rack for years, they're quality, but not meant for off-road. I ended up dragging mine on rocks and removing some of the material in the anti-noise/sway knob. Still held up, but it's killer on the departure angle. 1UP seems to make the best option for a...
Another +1 for WeBoost. I've installed the base car model(idk what they're specifically called off the top of my head) on a company car for a guy working on the field. He had a lot of trouble before adding it in. Once we installed it, he would pick up a bar or two and sometimes found signal in...
Have you looked into Panavise InDash mounts? In my experience, they take existing bolts/screws in the dash to hold the mounts in place. It appears you have an FJ Cruiser? Not sure what is offered for it. Also not sure about the "Oh sh!t" handles, but on my 100 TLC, I used one of the mounting...
