    Overland Camping Trailers w/ Bathroom?????

    I'll save you the cash - you're not going to convince her. Either she'll come around on her own, or she'll go to appease you a couple times and then stop anyway. If you buy a camper for her she'll only go out of guilt that you spent the money, which will make her even more miserable, and...

    Just stick it right in my gas tank, it'll wind up there anyway! All those extra zeroes will help clean out the injectors too :smile:

    Recruiting cards?

    Awesome! I'll definitely get some printed. A referral points system might be cool too. For example, new members can type in the member number of the person who referred them, and that referring member gets a few points for each person that signs up. It's a cool way for members to track how...

    When / why did off road tires get to be so beefy?

    Interesting point about the height being more important than the width! Makes sense though.

    Custom Bumper with Hi-Lift anchor points

    I'd say go for it. It doesn't add much clutter to the bumper, it can be as simple as a triangle cut out with some reinforcement. Never know when you may need a jacking point.

    Some ride along footage from AOAA

    I'm actually doing a private 201/recovery/expedition class this spring with Off Road Consulting. My first class, but like you said there's always something new to learn. They have a good reputation for instruction too, figured why not. Good excuse to get out on the trails for a weekend.

    When / why did off road tires get to be so beefy?

    Give me a history lesson here guys. Up until the 80's, it seems that most off road tires were short and skinny. Take this video, for instance: It seems that the Land Rovers were perfectly capable in most off road situations with the tire style of the day. Heck, there's even plenty of...

    1980's Australian Landcruiser Training Video

    That's awesome. My father did the Baja Peninsula and a bunch of other traveling in a Land Cruiser back in the 70's. He'll get a kick out of this!

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    No pics so this post is sort of useless - BUT just in case anyone with an XJ has questions, I installed the Putco headlight wiring harness today in my Cherokee. It's an intermediary harness that contains relays - this allows you to remove the majority of the headlight current from the switch...

    Trophies, Badges, and Ranks!

    I know I'm late to the party, but just for my own clarification - is the Ambassador track still the only operational track, or were the others added since the first post of this thread was made? Also, is Influencer the last sub-track for the Ambassador track? EDIT: I just saw that I have a...
