I just purchased a Montana i750 (didn't get it yet.) Mine will be plugged into the Jeep most of the time. I also subscribed to Geos ($50 a year for my wife and me). Our hikes would be less than 4 hours so I am not overly concerned about battery life. If my hike times get much longer, I would...

We did Chicken Corners, Dome Plateau and Cameo Cliffs prior to taking the class. Barlow suggested these trails, they are all pretty good. Most take 4 to 5 hours.

We visited Moab for the first time this past year (Summer 2020). I put my wife into a Barlow Adventures offroad driving course. Nadi was an excellent instructor. You can contact him directly here: 4x4guide.com We learned everything we needed to know about driving trails in that area. We...

Knowing them... I doubt it. I believe they do a lot of testing before making that kind of change. If my memory is right, that product should be out any day now.

I spoke to shiftpod a few months ago about their new SHIFTPODIII-XL. They told me that all new versions will have arms that are extendable so that it packs down to be shorter. I seem to remember 25% shorter. -B

I watch Dr Poole use a jack like device.... the winch actually makes more sense.... But yes, I get it, you got to do what you got to do.

Ramsey does not have medical grade winches.... I checked their website..... LOL -B

Hello... NICU... This is Brokedown from Warn. I have a new line of medical-grade winches.

We did a ton of trails all over CO, NM, and UT. I used the winch twice. The first time was to rescue a side by side that was sliding off of a cliff and the other was to pull a pickup truck out of a ditch. Needed? No. Piece of mind.... heck yes! -B

That is exactly how I was thinking. The truck is a base and the Jeep is for exploring. The jeep would have a small kitchen and a tent for overnight stays... but most of the time, we would be in the truck/camper.

I like this. I've been looking at DRW F450s with a 7.3 diesel. Small problem... I already own the Jeep and it is ready to go with all the options that I would add (2-inch lift, 33" tires, winch, etc.) My main concern with the big rig (mostly because I am clueless on the subject) is getting...

' That would be a great rig too. Truck for living and the wheeler for exploring. Have you taken that rig on the Pan American in South America? -B

I would love to do the Pan American highway but my wife is unwilling to "live" in the Jeep.... While in Taos this summer, we passed a rig much like the one in the picture. She said, why can't we do the Pan American highway in a rig like that? The plan would be to basecamp in the truck...

Thanks! A really great view of the peaks and valleys is what we are looking for. Someone recommended China Wall. I think there is a bypass for the hardest parts? -B

We live in Ft Myers. We spend our summers someplace other than FL. This year, we are in Taos, NM. Looking forward to doing some camping when we get back. Maybe in the Fred C. Babcock/Cecil M. Webb Wildlife Management Area -B
