    Mud tires

    dick cepek extreme country are my favorite save a few $ over the KMs and they have more of an interlocking tread in the middle, noise is low (for an MT) and I like how they handle and wear.

    Where do you store your food, Is it safe to store it in the car?

    Precautions are all good but in that case where you need to deal with a bear your best friend is a large can of bear spray.

    Is it safe for me to air down my tires with my current set up?

    Airing down is to greater advantage with a tire with more sidewall to increase tread print to the ground (Taller then wider profile tire) The tires that you are running are already designed to have a large wide print to the ground, decreasing pressure will not increase your foot print much and...

    Photography

    Its not a bad system, small compact and for getting started a digital view finder can be of help. If you believe you want to go further with photography after this camera look as far into the future as you can. Sony is a great system but can be limiting on glass and if you move to full frame...

    Comfortability or Repairability?

    For me this is a tough question and one that I have asked myself a lot in the past few years. I agree with a previous poster that middle ground can be found even if you consider front sold axle in the reliable bucket even if IFS is often times stronger and can be easier to repair then a...
