    Using dry ice in ice chest?

    We did a camping trip before I bought the refrigerator and I wanted to try Dry Ice to see how well it would work. Our destination was 4hrs away from home, when we arrived I checked out the coldness of my food. Drinks frozen and exploded due to expansion and those were glass bottles of Mexican...

    Yaesu FTM-400XDR vs Kenwood D710G

    Today I order my Yaesu from HRO. The Kenwood is in stock in all of the stores and the Yaesu is not in any at the moment. Going from the Baofeng BFF8 to this high power monster is going to be fun - or at least I hope so. The main feature is going to be the APRS for my weekends away from home...

    Arizona Overlanders

    The front way to Crown King and then hit Senator highway to Prescott is a fun trail with great camp spots along the way. 90% of the trail is a 2 vehicle wide road. Did it last weekend and there is still snow up near Prescott still on the trail - not just in the shade under the trees. There are...

    New Midland MXT275 (GMRS Mobile)

    I used to use the 12v socket and now it is on dedicated power. I think I have a 10amp going to it. I used whatever the one in the socket is holding.

    Runaway Campers....

    That sounds like a nice trailer. I have the same problem in my JK - lack of space. You will love the refrigerator the first time that you use it. I have a 52liter one and that is half of the back of the Jeep. I want a small utility style trailer to carry my gear in that tow over the trails.

    Runaway Campers....

    They look like nice well built trailers, but my problem with the DoDrop trailer is $10k for a sleeping area and no galley. That kind of money will buy a topnotch RTT and premium camping equipment and I would still have money left over.

    Tow strap vs lift strap/sling

    MazeVX - I agree with you. I was going to add that a recovery strap is just a longer lift strap - when both straps are the same in strength.

    US Southeast Does anyone have photos of a Land Cruiser 200 with 17 inch TRD Pro wheels or other 17 inch wheels?

    Go to TLF on YouTube and check out their Land Cruiser TFL Pro. It has Toyota TRD wheels.

    Overlanding with "stock" 4X4

    It really depends on 2 things - the vehicle and the terrain. What if your stock vehicle is a Jeep Rubicon, Ram Power Wagon? Those are highly capable vehicles. What if you drive a Chrysler minivan, Fiat 500? Those are both enjoyable vehicles that are way different. What if your idea of...

    I'm a bit worried about my $1400 Dometic fridge and their customer support!

    Buying a refrigerator is one of the best investments that can be made for camping. Now, I paid 1/3 of what you paid but it does have a Dometic compressor in it. I don't know and have been told (by an ARB owner) that I should not leave it running 24/7. I guess time will tell if I was wrong in...

    Costway 54 Quart Fridge on SUAOKI G500

    That is such a nice setup that you have there. I really like the water rotopax on the right side roll bar.

    Best Budget/Used Nav System for Beginner

    My Garmin has a 1:24,000 map of the southwest and the map is so much clearer. Today I did a trail with the Gaia and Garmin. Much more detail, clear easy to read map. Yes, I had the area downloaded on gaia yesterday before I did the trails.

    Exactly, that is my same complaint.

    "An ending is just another beginning."

    That is a good looking project. Good luck and I am looking forward to the progress reports. It is going to look good with a RTT on it and rocking it old school - solid axles, gas guzzling V8, 4 door wagon. :)

    OB Approved Two is One, One is None Rule

    That theory is great when wheeling. Two people can play on obstacles and take harder lines because one is always there to spot, guide and help if needed to get each other through. On your own, people tend take take the easy way every time and bypass the obstacles.

    It can be only be done on the device. You can even set up how far in advance that it warns you, too.
