I would agree with BigBlueOx. I recently was there not overly prepared and our tent was flattened in seconds by a down pressure system. But back to the tires, I went with street tires at 30 psi ( 5 psi blow what I usually run them on the streets) I didn’t have too many problems in and around the...

I was in Tobermory the first week of September 2018. Just a few things I found out... book after labour day weekend is better as the larger crowds aren’t there and your are more than likely to be able to book a campsite(at least at Bruce Peninsula National Park). If you want to see the Grotto...

Thanks Hank, sent a request to the page but don’t have a number. Also probably won’t be as active on Facebook as on here.

I like the idea of doing a large meet up once an awhile to meet people from the east side of Toronto and hopefully find out about some areas that end to explore later on. The whole reason I joined this group it to find out about some area to explore and it has helped as I have planned on make a...

Hello from Guelph as well. With it being freshly after Christmas more people would probably interested in a regular meet up. There is a lot of people on here in the Cambridge, Kitchener area. I’ll keep an eye out on the roads for you.

Sadly it looks like it just became harder to purchase your products here in Canada. I was looking at purchasing on of your CFX-75 from MEC.ca at the end of the month and recently saw they stopped selling them. [emoji20]

Looks like an interesting trip. I too have been planning on making the same trip but with no one else wanting to go and for safety reasons it has been put on the back burner. If you’re looking for someone to some along I would be interested just depends on the dates as I have already booked 3...

Hey everyone, I would also agree that there is a pretty sizeable group here in Ontario, and looking at some rig photos surprised I haven’t seen some of you. Especially you JZ8TY, as we’re both in Guelph and your rig is very one off. I drive a black 2016 F150, still pretty much stock except for...

Recently saw a sale at campingwold.com where the fridge is $1077. https://www.campingworld.com/dometic-cfx-75dzw-portable-refrigerator-freezer

I have had the same problem as well. However, thinking about where the license plate is located on the 2016 F150 the intercooler is already blocked ( downside to living in a province that requires a front plate) so what is the difference in putting the Warn HDX bush bar with winch tray?

A heads up, I have same truck with factory rims and I’m having a hell of a time finding anyone locally that sells off-road worthy tires. Maybe it’s just the brand I’m looking for that no one sells but thought I would pass along the troubles of having a 20” rim.

Hope your trip didn’t get effected by all the forest fires up there and you’ve made it safely back home. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

Just saw the thread, I'm interested in the meet up if it has been delayed. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

I'm all for going in on the adventure. It just depends on the dates and the closing date of our house. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

Hello Pete, It has been a couple of decades since my family and I went out east but some of the interesting things that I can remember is that Cabot Trail, Bay of Fundy, and the Tidal Bore were some of the memorable moments. Unfortunately, I can not recommend an overlanding areas to visit as...
