    Moab during July!

    Was kind of kicking around the idea of going to Moab the week of July 4th, which would be july 2nd through the 7th. Never been to Moab, was gonna buy the trek fun book or whatever it is and go up there for that week. Figure it's gonna be busy, but does anyone know what the climate will be...

    Nobody Eats Shredded Wheat

    Knowing the time of year can help him determine directions. For example in winter, the sun is going to be in the southern sky. There's also the finger rule for determining how much sunlight is left. Each finger between the horizon and the sun is 15 minutes. Using your watch as a compass, keep...

    Rust on Powder Coat?

    Is it thick rust to where it's raising up the powder coat? Or just surface rust? Either way you need to remove it, it really is cancer, and it will only grow until it is removed whether it's covered or not. Once you remove it, just get spray paint of similar color and cover it up. Unless you...

    Has Overlanding Become Trendy?

    I'll be the first to admit my version of overlanding is closer to camping while rock crawling. I enjoy a challenging drive, I enjoy having to use four low and airing down the tires. Rock crawling was my first experience off roading that I can remember, so I enjoy it the most. The term...

    Is it safe for me to air down my tires with my current set up?

    35s on 22s, I say keep em hard. For a few reasons as if you do pop off the bead. You're gonna be there a while if you don't have a spare. Low profiles are traditionally harder to mount than non.
