    Roof Top Tent Camping

    In this video I brought up three major reasons why we chose to install a Roof Top Tent on our 2006 Jeep Wrangler. The tent is a Tepui Ayer. Small but perfect for this size of vehicle. For most of my entire life I have camped on the ground and still would to this day. The biggest reason we wanted...

    How Do You Carry Your Axe And Shovel?

    Yea, the hardware on this thing is very heavy! It does make me feel good knowing that the shovel and axe are not going to fall off and hurt someone on the highway. But, there are a few downsides with accessing the axe specifically. It is expensive and that is why for years I carried the axe and...

    How Do You Carry Your Axe And Shovel?

    I have carried a few different variations of the army shovel. They are cool. A TJ has such little space to being with that I need a specific spot for every little thing in order to stay organized.

    How Do You Carry Your Axe And Shovel?

    I agree with a lot of your points here. I really toiled with keeping my shovel and axe on the outside of the jeep. I have a few axes that are very special to me and I would probably never mount them on the rack of the jeep just because I dont want them exposed. I do take my shovel and axe off...

    How Do You Carry Your Axe And Shovel?

    I thought about using the quick fists. They are a pretty simple solution and make accessing things way easier than what I currently have. But, I read some pretty bad reviews on longevity and durability of these things. I really wanted them to work, but I couldn't force my self to buy something...

    How Do You Carry Your Axe And Shovel?

    im not really concerned about the axe and shovel being dirty. During long trips, organization is key and as you know jeeps dont have a whole lot of space to pack gear inside. I was having to pull out gear in the inside of the jeep to pull out my axe or shovel. I hate digging for gear haha.

    How Do You Carry Your Axe And Shovel?

    That is the nice thing about a truck. Unfortunately, I do not have that simplistic option.

    How Do You Carry Your Axe And Shovel?

    Howdy all, for a few years now I have tried different methods of carrying Axes and shovels with me. The axe and shovels were always carried inside the vehicle, which is huge pain, and I have tried many different types of shovels and hatches in order to minimize the amount of space they take up...

    Emergency GPS Locators

    I have a sister who uses the Inreach mini for backpacking. It seems to work well. She has used to communicate with us and share her location when she go into a sisutaiton that required her to leave the trail early. It has done everything she has asked it to so far.

    Emergency GPS Locators

    They are great! What an awesome deal and a great use of one too! I hope I never have to use the SOS function, but it is comforting to know that I have a backup plan in case something goes very wrong.

    Emergency GPS Locators

    A few years ago I bought a GPS Communicator for emergency’s. If you are looking into purchasing a GPS device here is my personal experience using the SpotX. What GPS device do you own? If you have not bought one already, would you consider one?

    Cheap Jeep Headlight Upgrade

    Great testing procedures! I already new on the Jeep TJ that there was a large voltage drop from other tests that have been done, plus one day I was playing around with a volt meter lol. But, this would not be a bad idea to see what the voltage drop really is on my jeep. I also agree with new...

    Off Road Toolbox Idea

    A truck bed is rather nice for gear storage haha! I have looked at putting our cooking stuff in the drawer, but honestly we just don't have enough cooking gear to utilize this drawer properly. I am currently working on paring our stuff down even more. Less stuff is just better haha.

    Off Road Toolbox Idea

    How do you carry your tools? Over the years I have been through a few methods; tool bags, a crate, piled behind my back seat on the floor. But, in this video I do a long term review of a Tuffy Underseat Drawer as my toolbox.

    Cheap Jeep Headlight Upgrade

    I don’t recomend adding LED replacement bulbs. The bulbs sit differently in the housings and to get the correct beam pattern and most useable light from them you really need a housing designed to have an LED bulb in them.

    The Recovery Gear I Carry

    Awesome list. Being able to move the winch around is a big plus for sure. Traction boards have my eye right now but we will see what happens. I didnt include hands tools and jacks in recovery equipment, though I should have included the jack. Like you, I carry a variety of hand tools, air...
