    How has the Covid-19 virus affected your adventures?

    There are more stories like this coming out every day. Young people are getting very seriously ill with COVID-19... Our healthcare system in the US is not ready for this. And still, people are saying "I don't care, I'm gonna do what I want" like that's somehow a brave stance...

    Portable Fire Pits?

    A bit off topic, but what shoes are you wearing in that pic?

    Fire on the ground.

    I use a Snowpeak pretty much exclusively now, even if there's an established ring, and it also burns the wood down to virtually nothing. I haven't taken the step of packing out the ashes yet, but it's a point of pride that I spread them out so effectively that it would be impossible to tell...

    Huh, sounds like a funny way of celebrating a birthday...

    Do you do all your own build labor?

    Thanks, appreciate the reply. Not to get off topic, but I've really been missing the sage and juniper of Central Oregon lately for some reason. I've gotta get back over there soon...talk about finding your center, there's just something special about the high desert.

    Do you do all your own build labor?

    I've commented similarly before, but since OP sounds a little like me, I'll chime in again. I have an Xterra as well, and I've added sliders, roof rack, and a bumper w/ tire mount & can carrier, all solo. Note that they were all bolt-on, with some drilling, and a little bit of wiring. I've...

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Sure, but if you want a camp stove that looks like a laptop, you gotta pay top dollar!

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Just got my Lock and Roll Hitch, vehicle & trailer side, now I just need the trailer! I've got my eye on this sleek thing (GSI Pinnacle Pro Stove) as well, but it's not officially available yet:

    Aux Transmission Cooler

    Thanks, good to hear from someone with a similar use case. I was aware that it had one, but seems like everyone recommends an aux one as well, connected in series with the existing one. At least, that's what I found on many of the Xterra specific forums. Do you have the Scanguage II? I read...

    Aux Transmission Cooler

    Thanks all, seems pretty definitive. Temp sensor and aux cooler in series with the stock one sounds like the way to go.

    Aux Transmission Cooler

    I'll be picking up a small cargo trailer soon (dry weight 700lbs, likely never exceed 2000lbs loaded), and in my internet searching to learn more about towing (something I've never done), I keep coming across rec's to add aux tranny coolers and/or fans. I drive a 2011 Xterra S, w/ a tow limit...

    Overland Hound

    Not a fan of Shepherds?!? Whoever heard of such a thing?!?

    This boy's growing fast and I cannot wait to get into the woods with him:

    US Southwest Off Road Trailer Group Buy (M416 Style)

    Not 100% sure about the power usage yet, really just wanted it integrated from the start for future potential. I like having a power source completely distinct from my vehicle battery.
