    4Runner VS Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

    Well. I've owned my JKU (Wrangler Unlimited) since April of 2009. I've put over 270,000 miles on it. I've got cross country three times towing a M416 trailer with an RTT on it. Taken the Jeep through the Rubicon, Moab a few times, plenty of Colorado, a whole bunch of Midwest trails, all of...

    Recovery Kits

    I wheel in 2wd most of the time... No need waste gas That being said... I would much rather have the tools prepared than not have them. The #1 most essential tool is always the one between your ears... Second to that will always be the one tool you didn't pack

    Planning a trip to Newfoundland!

    It was not allowed the last time I was up there... I lost a can due to those rules... The way they explained it. If it was empty/new never been used. Then you could transport it. Otherwise it was a no go period. That was 14 years ago...

    Planning a trip to Newfoundland!

    My understanding is that as long as you are 50 feet from the road's right away, and not on someone's specifically marked " no trespassing " property, you are allowed dispersed camping. Including in your vehicle. Also, I took a look at your blog. Nice. I'm a little jealous. I'd love to do that...

    Colorado, Utah, California - 6/23/17-7/5/17

    I'm still planning on going out that way. I've got a 10 and 7 year old that will be with me. I just know from past trips, they will need to get out and explore... A lot. Last summer we did a 8,000+ mile long trip with them. They were great but we also let them decide when they saw something they...

    Colorado, Utah, California - 6/23/17-7/5/17

    It sounds like we are going to be stopping to let the kids out and explore a whole lot more than you are planning. So, I think we are going to pass on joining up with you. We might see you on parts. We'll be in the big blue jeep...

    OB Approved Following Your Spotter’s Signals

    While I agree there could be an issue with some RHD vehicles... I would never try to solely rely on hand signals. The more communication the better... As long as it is only between a single spotter and the driver. It is absolutely the spotters responsibility to realize when they are spotting...

    Red River Gorge trails

    There are some fantastic trails in the area... However, the only ones I've been on were difficult for my Rig... Which is a bit more than stock.... If you go down any, don't go alone... And, if you see no trespassing signs, follow them!

    Planning a trip to Newfoundland!

    Almost forgot... If you make it over to Labrador at all... Be prepared... Black Flies will be there and they suck! Not dangerous... just annoying!

    Planning a trip to Newfoundland!

    Not to mention that the moose population on Newfoundland is larger than human population!!! I would add a couple of things. The Parks Canada campgrounds are great... But, the last time I was up there you were allowed dispersed camping with a few rules... Sorry, I can't remember them at the...
