Well, opinions are like -- well you know the rest. My opinion, and the way I voted, were to keep the lightbar and get the spots. That second picture looks AWESOME. The thing with lights is - if you have them you can turn them on but if you don't you can't!! That makes sense to those of us with a...
Retirement is on the horizon for my wife and I and St. George is on the short list. We have been there for a week previously and will be in St. George again the week before this event -- darn, wish I would have seen this, it would have been so nice to come out and meet some folks! We both really...
Put this on the calendar -- is this a special occasion (given the cool name) or a regular meetup? I know they're all special but wondered if there was something special going on......:grinning:
Great thread and it is one of the reasons I started to bike. Having a reliable source of transportation not dependent on gasoline is critical (think zombie apocalypse) and something that can be put on a rack behind (or on top of) any trail rig. My current...
So I am just wondering if you...
Dropped her off yesterday after having gone through the research, ordering and getting it all shipped/received...picked her up after work with 1) Front Runner roof rack 2) ARB awning 3) MaxTrax pins for mounting on rack 4) Rotopax base plates for mounting on rack 5) Aux back up/scene lights...
That's pretty awesome but you'll need the decals to make it look legit!!

Great idea for a thread since photography is something that I think is a GREAT crosspoint activity for Overlanding!! I take my dSLR everytime I go and usually at least snap a couple of the truck (yes, she is my favorite model of late and I have accessorized her accordingly) or manage to get a...
I've seen some amazing enthusiasm on this site but would only like to throw my two cents in - which in this economy isn't worth even that. Just saying that @Michael should be the one that things like this - or anything with the OB logo or something similar - is placed on. It was he and @Corrie...
I've been a subscriber since day one and was lucky enough to meet Clay and company at a NWOR in Plain, WA. I've learned much about the philosophy and practice of Overlanding from them and this thread as well - two of the better resources no doubt!!
Their videos are professionally produced and...
Met up with a friend from work that drives an FJ for breakfast and then over to the local Overlander store (MULE Outfitters) to get my install date for some gear that will be posted later and then off to the mountains!! Along the way, used MaxTrax to help out about six different vehicles (among...
All very good points and on the note of resources to recycle - that's a good point for a solar panel and/or solar inverter/generator -- no need for additional combustable fuel and a resource that doesn't need to be replenished -- that is, of course, if you are in an area with sufficient solar to...
@Corrie -- GREAT article and I really LOVE checklists and such. The other checklist you guys did was great too and I would suggest printing them, taking them to Kinko's or such and laminating them. I have several checklists laminated and keep a set of dry erase pens that I can write on the...
Water = 8.4# per gallon
Gas = 6.2# per gallon
Case of MRE's = 22# per case
.223 ammo = 27# per 1k rounds/case
Propane = 4.2#/gal*
*This means a "full" propane tank should weigh about 37 pounds. (20# tank)
So when you go stacking stuff on a roof rack - or even in the bed/back of a rig -...
I know you didn't ask me but thought I would chime in. When my wife and I were in LV a couple of years ago and had some time to do something "fun" (fun for me is different than fun for her) we did a trip with this outfit and it was top notch!! Great gear and very nice and knowledgeable people...
