@ezz & @outside.perception, just noticed that we are not far from being neighbors also, We are up on Camano Island, about an hour north of King County. Spring is on its way, snow is starting to clear in the hills, defiantly time for some trips. Check the calendar and/or the Rally Point...
Mohammad , asking on a forum "Which is better" especially when it comes to Jeep and Toyota always gets the troops riled up...lol No matter what you buy, they are all chock full of computerized electrical goodness that does tend to prove itself fairly reliable until it isn't. Unlike the...
We make sure to have stickers etc on our rigs to identify us as part of OB, carry a few extra stickers and swag for those we come across on the trail that express interest in OB, and lastly have a few Overland Bound challenge coins with our member number that we can hand out if we come across...
We are thinking about upgrading our Jk's factory navigation / radio head unit to one that is Android Based. Not impressed with the navigation functions from the factory. Would be nice to natively run Gaia and other apps without using Android Auto which gives limited functions. Not much space...
Odds of a a nice day in Ocean Shores in March coinciding with the same time we are here .... apparently 100% today Not a typical overlanding trip, but we are technically off road, and did find some forest service roads on the way down the peninsula. Also first chance to get the new to us jeep...
Welcome to Overland Bound Chris.. Nice looking rig. It always starts out with a nice shiny new set of KO2's, then lots of dollars later you end up in a circle of chairs somewhere saying my name is ________ and I have an overlanding problem... but I am much better now....
We currently have two Midland mobile GMRS radios in use, our Grand Cherokee has limited space so we went with the MXT275 which mounts the radio tucked away somewhere and all the controls and display are in the mic. its big limitation is that it is only 15 watts so limits the reach a little...
Ok - enough of the armchair overlanding, spring is pretty much here so lets get out and have good old fashioned camp out! Planning on an over night at Baker Lake Kulshan Campground (overflow area) Being as it is off season, there are no fees currently. Since this will be the first...
Recently purchased a new to us Jeep JKU which has been unmolested by its former owner and completely bone stock for a clean slate for a build. Spent this weekend making the rounds of our favorite shops spending our children's inheritance on the first round of "necessities" for overland...
Another in the mobile and HT club, All radios are dual band, have an Icom 5100 in one rig, and a Icom 2730 in the other vehicle. Both vehicles have a Yaesu FT470 HT (super solid old 1990 vintage radios that run on a battery pack or double AA batteries with excellent battery life.) Works...
I have had good luck with the Raptor line of products. Offered in both 1 liter bottles that you add hardener (and color base if using the tintable version) shake and spray with their special spray gun or in standard aerosol spray paint cans for small jobs. Both the 1 liter bottles and the...
Thank you to everyone who showed up to our home today for the meetup! It was great seeing everyone again, and good to meet you Garrick. Jerry thanks for bringing some tasty grub to share:) Fortunately the weather cooperated with us and we got to spend our time outdoors, sharing our...
This comment gives me anxiety! hahahaha
Never had a problem with punching holes in the roof, just got to remember the big part of the hole saw hides the scratches from the drill bit.... Roof top is the best option, however after just getting a wrangler the plastic top does not do much for...
