Unfortunately I'm going to have to bug out on this trip. I've really been wanting to do Usal for a long while, but I'm still recovering from a small medical issue and am not quite ready for prime time yet. I'll see you soon on another run. You're going to have great weather!

He's stuck in New Mexico.

No, it's been sold since the first day I listed on CL. Sorry, forgot to amend this listing.

Cool. I'll be bringing extra 4 gallons in Rotopax containers, which should yield me about 50 miles in addition to the range from my gas tank. That should do the trick!

This is probably a stupid question, but just to clarify- the 50-100 without gas station comment means that if you fill up at the last gas station, your vehicle has to be able to travel 100 miles before we see another gas station?

Is this trip dog friendly?

Armin- thanks for updating with details! If anyone on the trip needs a ham radio, I have an extra handheld you can use.

I had to use my hard top hoist that was already mounted in the garage. I let the strings and straps out as long as they could go in order to lift the tent from the garage floor, but then I found that the line would only let me raise the tent about 4 feet off the ground, so I had to rest it on my...

Yes, it opens to the passenger side only. I have an ARB awning that I'm going to mount on the driver side. It's the iKamper Skycamp Mini 2.0 and it'll sleep 2 adults and a dog- perfect for my application! The full-size Skycamp would be too much for a 2-door JK. With the Mini, I still have room...

I finally had some time to get this RTT installed on the Jeep. I did the install alone and it was not easy! Can't wait to get into the wild to try it out!

Got that covered. I'm not worried about it at all.

Just a quick update on the Domestic cooler. I did you weekend camping trip with my single vehicle battery. When I parked the car at 6p for the day, the voltage measured at 12.5V. The next morning, I started the car at 9a, some 15 hours later. I only ran the cooler on the battery and nothing...

Great suggestions. In reality, I'll probably install a dual battery setup, but still doing my investigating. For now, I'm just trying to get past this weekend. Lol. All in due time...

I have an Interstate battery that I bought from Costco. Probably not AGM. I always carry a NOCO battery jumper with me, so I'd just like to see the tolerance of where my battery is at. I'll run the simulation overnight and set the temp to 34°F - I'll make sure to turn off the ice maker feature.
