I have a set of these in red. I don't find that they put out enough lighting to do much of anything. I just chalked them up to be accent lights. Maybe it's the red tint I bought them in. I mainly depend on my homemade USB-powered LED light strip with magnetic backing.

I dial back the camping during the summer months, but when I do I head for higher elevation. In the forested areas, it's just finding some shaded area for the tent and sleeping with the rain fly off. I'm planning to try hammock camping this summer though. I've got the ENO OneLink system to...

For what I intended to do with my 4R, I went storage first. T4r.org is a great site to see what's out there and what others are doing with their 4Rs. I started with storage panels fitted into the side windows in the cargo area, then I went with a full roof rack. Sprinkled in between were other...

Thanks for the advice. I'll check out the local brick and mortar first. Do you know if the fittings are the same on the 20 lb vs the 5 lb tanks?

Do you all recommend an adapter hose to be able to use a 20 lb LP tank with the Coleman single burner? Something like this... I have a 20 lb tank at home which doesn't see any use since I prefer charcoal grilling. I don't see lugging it around when we camp so I'll probably want to pick up a 5...

Another vote for a plastic box. If you know the Daiso stores, it's kind of a nicer discount store originating from Japan. Anyway, they have some pretty sturdy plastic boxes that range between $4 and $6. I picked up about a half dozen of them for utensils, paper towels, dry foods/snacks, etc...

Though the pinstripes on mine aren't quite as bad as what you have pictured, I left them. Only time I see them is when I wash the truck :D and I don't like looking at them. I think we both have the same color 4R; only wished I had gone with a lighter color (if one in Quicksand had been...

I've read it multiple times, not only on OB but other articles and videos: "buy quality cast iron". I have a number of Lodge cast iron cookware. I don't know any pans though. I've got a large 16 or 18" round flat top which I've used in the oven for pizza, and a grill top with the reversible...

The problem with any netting solution is inevitably something will get in, and now they're trapped in there with you.

A set of Maxtrax, but no CBI rear bumper like I wanted. That fat bastard!

I've only recently learned about this product myself, but it's called permethrin. I read that unlike some Picaridin and DEET, Permethrin is an insecticide so it'll actually deter and kill. I plan to test it out myself in the spring once the bugs start to run rampant. The videos I've seen use...

So much good advice. I'll just add that I have a Rumpl down blanket I use around camp to stay off the cold. At bed time, I fold it over once, tuck it into my 23 degree bag. I do the base layers, fleece apparel, wool socks, etc etc etc but once I started using the Rumpl in the sleeping bag, no...

I would be interested for sure. I really like the dynamic and flow of your videos. I don't plan on buying any new equipment so I'll rely on a couple of GoPros I already own, but the software side is a total black box to me.

All I can offer is go with the V8 if you can find it. I had an '05 SE with the V8 and luv'ed it! Unfortunately I had the 4x2 :(

Aaaah! Got it. The next logical question would have been the discrepancy in the main page count. Thanks for the explanation Steve.

So total badge-holding members is 6076 (2012 + 4064)? I assume the 3928 is a subset of 4064.

Definitely! To your point, I should get a set of chains but I'm still researching.

@nickburt I'm hoping you can offer some advice to a cast iron novice. I only own two pieces of cast iron cookware; one I just received yesterday. It's a Lodge grill / griddle flat top. I took it for a "test drive" yesterday evening with some steak strips on the grill side over charcoal. The...

Is that your spare sitting behind the frige?

Agreed, some of the components on this thing is seriously not geared towards offroading but it IS a concept vehicle. I found it more interesting that Toyota had integrated all these overlanding-and-offroad-friendly details like the lighting, camera, and semi-enclosed roof rack. I'm curious if...
