    What tires do you like? (Merged Thread)

    Firestone either just released or are soon release their next gen MTs. I feel like Firestones have always been a highly underrated tire (MTs and ATs) Sent from my SM-G935V using OB Talk mobile app

    GSA Field Trip Guidebook "Centennial Meeting"

    I have to say it's one of the best old books I've ever snagged, heck and I didn't even pay a dime. Sent from my SM-G935V using OB Talk mobile app

    GSA Field Trip Guidebook "Centennial Meeting"

    Thought I would go ahead and share this with anyone who is interested. A well respected professor in my Geology department retired this spring and left several of his old books and other crap outside of his office free for the taking. I apparently found one of his "gems", a field trip guidebook...

    Wow you make me feel cheap[emoji23]. I refuse to spend over $200 per tire. My Maxxs were $180 a piece Sent from my SM-G935V using OB Talk mobile app

    What tires do you like? (Merged Thread)

    I know a lot of Jeep guys don't prefer them since the tread doesn't last too long in a Load C and with a relatively shallow tread depth to begin with. However, I've never run them so I have no opinion of them. Sent from my SM-G935V using OB Talk mobile app

    What tires do you like? (Merged Thread)

    I can't speak for the ST Maxx offroad (only 2k on my set and haven't had time to get them dirty) but Cooper does advertise them as a hybrid MT which seems to be what you want, similar to the Duratrac (arguable). On the highway I don't hear them and they have handled well in every obstacle I've...

    Have you ever used your fuel in your Geri Cans?

    I keep my 10L can full simply as an emergency when I'm on trips whether it be for me or another person. Once I get back from the trip, I go ahead and empty the can into my tank and then the process repeats itself. Nearly had to use my spare fuel during a trip in Big Bend. We were leaving from...

    Automatic or manual transmission?

    Purely preference but in this day and age autos are far superior. Throwback 20 years or more, manual transmission all day. I like manuals, they just have a better feel for me in a 4x4 Sent from my SM-G935V using OB Talk mobile app

    Help me choose a name for my overland team

    Where are yall based out of? I feel that always a good place to start when it comes to a team name. Or do yall have an inside joke of some type? If so base it around that Example: if me and my geology guys formed a team it would likely be something along the lines of "Fluvial Coprolites" or...
