Hello, I picked up an Ikamper mini and the annex. The floor is "extra" I'm not sure that will meet your needs but it is pretty nice.

Thats sort of where the idea came from. I poked around and I guess license plate might not be the right name. it looks like rally number plate might be more correct.

There is that and they are cool.

Nice, they sure have come a long way.

I'm over is Sunnyvale. I was thinking of putting together a meet up some Saturday. There is a big empty lot by me with a Starbucks on the corner. Would anyone be interested in coming out, having coffee, checking out things folks have done to their rigs, and discussing future road trips?

Believe it or not, Oliver the Land Rover is pretty much completely stock, not bad for something from 1962. The only modification was to remove the propane system (done long before I got it). The upgrades that should happen are to the electrics It still has the 30 amp generator. That means...

Yeah, it might be a bit silly. But, the object is to make it easier to identify fellow members which would help with more Overland comradely , which could encourage more to join. OK, that's a bit far fetched but it is all in good fun.

I was walking up to Oliver the other day and noticed that my OB badge is cool but fairly small. Then I took a walk around Oliver, I have three OB stickers on Oliver one each side and the badge up front, and noticed that they were fairly small as well. This all got me thinking, I'm flying down...

It is a lot of fun. You'll have a great time. Keep an ear out for AI6F, we are combining Field Day with a fire prevention event and will be operating out of our mobile command van. I hope to hear you on the air and meet you on the trail. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

I like Overlanding on the cheap because working on the cheap usually means keeping it simple. All my gear is stuff I have scrounged modified or adapted to meet a need. If anything breaks I and usually fix it and if I can't I'm not out all that much. It is also fun to find things and then ask...

I had not heard of it until you mentioned it. I'm not sure about the usefulness while out on the trail but it is sure fun to play with around the house.
