    Pontiac Aztek "The Original Overlander?"

    I can only hope they will acquire Citroen and achieve the same result.

    Pontiac Aztek "The Original Overlander?"

    An old Willy's Overland is my dream rig.

    Pontiac Aztek "The Original Overlander?"

    SHAZZAM!! And yet everybody seems content to overlook how ugly those things are. No consistency at all. An apology is owed to the Aztec.

    Who likes a big rack?

    You have to look at it from the opposite direction: This is an upgrade from PVC.

    Who likes a big rack?

    A first fit check: Just a bit of extra overhang. I think The Varmints see it as a potential jungle gym.

    Who likes a big rack?

    I never thought about using rope for that. In my experience round pipe/tube tends not to be too noisy, but square (or anything else with a flat edge) sure can be. I have some extruded aluminum roof rails that made a horrendous howling noise. I think the biggest issue with them is the slot...

    Yaks extinct? They better not be. I haven't managed to eat one yet.

    It needs to fit a yak too.

    Repairs, tools, off-roading training

    If you can't find any good, local training options you can at least watch free Youtube tutorials. Watch several on the same topic and you will get the gist of the job. Then try it out yourself, with the videos on hand to refer back to as you go. If you have never changed a tire you should...

    What do you use for weather forecast?

    No kidding. Where else can someone get paid for such poor performance? I think the only reason they get away with it is because so few people actually spend any time outdoors. The weather conditions between their door and their car don't make that much of a difference in their world. Those...

    What do you use for weather forecast?

    My own two eyes and my own ability to sense the temperature. Oh, sure, I will look at NOAA, but those clowns can't accurately predict the present, let alone the future.

    Your Go To Jack

    Axle Straps They are a useful thing to have around. Kind of like a short tree saver. Although I suppose some folks would be concerned about the metal ends.

    Your Go To Jack

    The 20 ton probably is overkill. Its one advantage is the larger footprint, hence better stability. That could be someone's justification. Mine I picked up cheap at a swap meet and the dually seemed the most appropriate vehicle in which to place it. Way too big for the XJ.

    Live chickens

    It gets even better than that: You can ride a yak. It would be like carrying a spare vehicle. Not only could it take you back to civilization in the event your primary vehicle breaks down, it could also take you places you could never manage to reach with a 4x4. I cannot imagine why folks...

    Live chickens

    It's a brave new world. Who are we to judge? :neutral:

    Live chickens

    Or what about a yak? Yak's are better for cold weather. And certainly have more pulling power than a goat. See? We have already gotten to the point where we can debate the merits of our livestock. The Toyota/Jeep argument is so last decade.
