  • Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance August 4th and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Got new set of tires yesterday and had to wait a week. They said they had been hard to get. Glad I didn't wait even though I had a few miles left on the old ones. I just stuck the old ones in the shed because I am a borderline hoarder. I don't understand the backlog in ammunition that's been...

    Specialty coffee setups (ultra coffee snobbery)

    Interesting coffee reading and uses in recipes: Coffee Talk Archives - Charleston Coffee Roasters I picked up some of their Signature Blend at Costco a while beck and really like it. I was aware of some uses for coffee in recipes but they have some more ideas too.

    Firestone Destination XT vs KO2

    Toyota Dealership here always has buy 3 + 1 for a dollar during April. That's for whatever they can order which is most tires I suppose. I just replaced my K02s load range E. Kind of a stiffer ride but the mileage was superior. But, you knew that. Hard to beat even though pricey was good...

    Why i say you need 4x4 always

    Put up a sign at the beginning with AAA's number...or the local tow service. Maybe that will make them think a little first, maybe.

    Running out of toilet paper

    When the covids visited last year and tp shortages hit, I already had a year's supply. Some things you just don't want to get caught short on so it was just an "oh, well, no problem here". I do tend to stockpile some of the essentials. I just got back from a short trip and I will now restock...

    Sometimes I think we've gone too far.

    Sounds like Amazon is going to miss you. LOL.

    Bike Pedals - Quick Release?

    @Road , my bike buddy and former shop owner didn't know anything and was a little skeptical about something that was quick release being safe, etc. I sent him the link. I think it's certainly possible with the right materials and engineering. Like you, I wouldn't want to be the guinea pig...

    Paper maps? still a thing or no?

    I just bought a nice printer and like to make a binder of certain areas I am going. I find various maps online will show various features and links. Then I will take the Gazetteer and mark routes and destination, other notes. Not all/any maps are 100% accurate I don't believe. Except satellite...

    Bike Pedals - Quick Release?

    That's a new twist since I worked in a bike shop 40 years ago. I thought at first you were referring to quick release pedals that are used with riding cleats/shoes. Good ideer but don't forget the tremendous force a pedal and crank arm has to take at times. If you are actually going to pedal...

    Manual Coffee Grinder Review: Packable Stainless Grinder

    1. Any coffee is usually better than no coffee. Especially if the last dose was/is approaching 24 hrs. previous. 2. Fresh roasted and ground coffee has more flavor. 3. Refer to #1. There is a fundamental difference , to me, in making one cup vs. multiple cups at once and I usually only...

    Manual Coffee Grinder Review: Packable Stainless Grinder

    I have been grinding for years with electric grinder. Then, I started researching and decided the ceramic hand grind might be an improvement. Glad I did. Now I have to refrain from stocking up on too much and different kinds of beans. I have cut back my consumption a tad from when I was in an...

    Salisbury Steak in Dutch Oven

    I like simple. I'm going to pick up those ingredients today. I will try it with venison. You need something green with that!

    What kind of knives do you carry?

    I have skinning knives, fleshing knives, fillet knives, Buck knives, handmade knives, butcher knives, etc, etc. My daily carry is a Swiss Army Recruit with a belt clip so it's a little harder to lose. I have been carrying the below in a belt case when I'm in the woods. I do like serrated...

    AAA Auto Club

    Thanks! That's kind of what I was thinking but there is little information about the particulars just looking at their literature. Might be beneficial to have a central contact point when traveling far from home.

    AAA Auto Club

    Will they send a tow truck out to FS Rd 1037 or the boondocks to recover your vehicle? They say roadside service but they don't really identify what roadside they won't go to that I can find. Anybody dealt with them from a "way off paved road" situation? I was about 1 1/2 miles down a good...

    PVC pipe pressurized water system

    Make it where it stands on end and use gravity to add pressure? Store it lying down...might be a little heavy. Maybe put your antennae on top?

    How heavy is your overlanding JKU?

    I always thought stopping was the critical factor. Engines and transmissions, meh. Brakes on your trailer is huge!

    Jocassee Bound

    Spent a couple of hot nights in July at the boat in spot. The water was low and hauling the camp up the hill was a chore. But, the water was so cold and refreshing. First night a huge thunderstorm rolled by for couple of hours. One of those that you just figured you're probably going to die by...
