There probably the best a fullsized rig guy can buy!

Did you buy them locally or have to get them freighted?

I'd be looking for an empty parking garage on a Sunday!

With that being said here in the northwest I can buy the materials for under $250. So in NC I would think it would be about the same. Then you just need a buddy with a tube bender and welder.

I signed up for the online crash course, however I will more than likely have to take the test at a later date. I will be headed to michigan for several weeks at the end of the month.

There are hundreds of these spots out there. The "Record a Track" is a function of Gaia Maps. Here is a link to a tutorial from @Lifestyle Overland . Kevin does a great job going over it. It's a great mapping app. You can download it to your phone and tablet and use it online from your PC. It...

https://white-knuckleoffroad.com/ Nice, But a little pricy.

I went driving around 2 weeks ago with no real plan. Here are two places I found and enjoyed....and completely different from one another! You can also look at the iOverlander app.

Welcome to OB and the PNW Grayson. First, I would recommend downloading Gaia Maps. Take a look at the USFS Roads & Trails and the MVUM layers. As you can see from the screenshots, there are hundreds of miles of trails to explore. You can save detailed maps of areas of your choice for when you...

I was born in Escondido. Grew up in East SD. Lived in Alpine, La Mesa, Vista, Oceanside. Been gone about 4 years now. However, my wife and friend are on a road trip headed that way in the Ram.

I think we need to remember that "Overlanding" occurs in more countries than just the US. Yes, we can carry firearms in the US. However, many other countries have different laws and cultures. "If I can't carry, I ain't going" is a pretty closed minded position. Hundreds of millions of people...

I will say that for an everyday person, in a panic situation, they would probably be better with a can of bear spray. Unless highly trained in a high tension atmosphere, the odds of placing accurate shots is highly unlikely (if they can even pull the trigger. It becomes a careless shootout with...

For most stock 4x4 rigs a "lift" is not gunna help. It does 2 things, 1. It raises your center of gravity. 2. it allows for larger tires. Its the larger tires that really do the work. Tires are what provide true clearance. As an example watch some ot the ExpeditionOverland trips in alaska and...

Just depends on what the goal is and what the truck will be used for. AEV is probably the best choice if you want to retain factory GVWR . They reuse the factory springs and use adapters (not upper spacers) to lift and push the front axle forward. Carli and Thuren are also very reputable with...

I am up for a trip. My truck should be back in a week, i hope. I will be leaving state for work the last week of this month. So,....thinking there is a window to fit a trip into. I am cool with Moses Lake. Never been....

My wife is not comfortable around firearms.So I decided to not take a firearm on this trip. So a couple years ago, for our anniversary we decided to go backpacking to a lake that was about 5 miles outside of a small mountain town in the Cascades. We found an awesome spot at the back of the lake...

We live in violent times. As we get into the woods to escape the stresses of the daily work grind, others escape to the same woods to get away from bad decisions they have made. Plan for the worse, hope for the best! It's not gunna get any better.......

Yes! Another full sized! It's okay if you destroy it, it's a Ford. Just kidding, welcome to the crew!

Hey Everyone. I recently started a new Instagram and YouTube Account. IG @Built4Exploration YT @ Built4Exploration These will be more focused on the Overlanding part of my life, including associated project builds. Cheers!

I was bummed that I forgot my one prized rock at home, so here is a picture,
