    Massdrop poll for Maxtrax group buy

    https://www.massdrop.com/vote/Recovery-Boards Massdrop is a group-buy website, they are currently polling to see if a buy for Maxtrax is worth doing. I have not used Massdrop personally, but I know people who have and they seem to be satisfied with the experience. I figured I would post it up...

    Member location in posts

    Hey, would it be possible to have a field under the avatar of members for their location? We are scattered all around and it would help put many posts into a regional or national context. Another forum I'm on has this option and it is quite nice to have.

    Radio mounting

    How do you have your radio mounted? Tell us about your installation. I purchased an ICOM IC-V8000 2M radio used because it was what I could afford and most the repeaters here are on the 2M bands. Also, it has a front-facing speaker and cooling fan, which was something I wanted since it will go...

    Adventure and Travel Books

    I'm curious if anyone has found any entertaining reads for adventure travel. Perhaps the one that really got me thinking about overland travel was Alexa: The Life and Death of and Austin 7 Ruby. Basically, a guy buys an old Austin 7 and sets out to drive from the UK to South Africa. Why? For...

    Videos, Blogs, and Articles

    I think it would be cool to create a sub-forum for videos, blogs, & articles so we can share cool overlanding resources, documentaries, and articles with each other.

    2012 Toyota 4Runner Trail OEM suspension parts

    I have some suspension parts off a 2012 4Runner Trail Edition. Here is the ad in my local listings: https://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=218&ad=37432173&cat=595 (craigslist isn't very popular here) All the parts have less than 8,000 miles of use. Rear OEM shocks (x2) Front OEM struts with...

    Baja Questions

    I am fast approaching my first major Overland trip, and I'm going big - Baja, Mexico. I will be going down with some experienced travelers who have done this trip on motorcycles before. I just have a couple questions. I have heard that you are not supposed to bring full fuel cans over the...

    Tire talk

    Within the next month I will be replacing my BF Goodrich TA KO tires. I primarily use my rig in the Intermountain West - that means hardpack desert, sharp stones, slickrock, sand, and some mud (although I try to avoid mud). My rig is also my daily driver, so long tread life, and on-road...

    Mobile Browser, a couple of issues

    When using my mobile to make a post I'm not able to use the "enter" key to get to another line. The cursor pops down for a second then back to the end of the line I was typing. I also can't long-press to paste something from my clipboard, such as an image URL. For some reason this behavior...

    Utah Members?

    Anyone else in Utah, and do you think we would have enough region-specific content to justify our own section?

    It's the little things...

    I'm curious about the little things. The cheap purchase or mod that makes things a little easier on the trail or a little more comfortable in camp. The one that comes to mind for me is installing an LED light in my lift gate. I already have LEDs in my dome lights, so I had some extra...

    Resolved Chat problem

    When using the pop-out window for the Chatroom, whenever a new person joins the pop-out stops displaying new messages. I hear the notification for new messages, but nothing shows up. If I open the chat window in the main browser (using the tool bar at the bottom), I can see the messages I...

    Sanitation Solutions

    I'm curious what everyone does in regards to, how to put this politely, solid bio-waste disposal. I will soon be venturing to Baja and will be camping on beaches where there will be no facilities. Digging a pit is both uncomfortable for the, uh, "user" of said pit and somewhat problematic in...

    Inverter recommendations

    I am preparing for a prolonged off-grid trip and I would like to get an inverter so I can charge my camera battery and possibly a laptop. I'm looking for something that will run off at standard 12v plug and will not need any special wiring or mounting to use. (Eventually I will be adding a...
