    2021 Jeep Gladiator - 3.0L Turbo EcoDiesel - overland build

    Looking forward to your build, We went out and test drove a couple of JT's today, just need to find one with the Rubicon trim and the diesel, that the dealers do not want way more than MSRP for.

    Cot Recommendation?

    The organizers were included as part of the cot. We place both cots side by side in the T4 Gazelle with a 24"X36" dog crate on one side, leaving about a foot of space on the other side of the tent, enough space for me to get off the cot and stand to get out of the tent. We use the dog crate to...

    Cot Recommendation?

    We have a couple of cots from Cabela's seem to be of decent construction and solid when set can hold a lot of weight. They are just a bit short for me as I am 6'4" but most cots are. Only real downside is that they are fairly heavy, but the do fit into a pretty compact bag and they have a neat...

    Favorite Mod/Upgrade for under $50

    Replaced all of my interior bulbs in the WJ with LEDs - so much brighter and more even lighting, can actually find things or read a map without using a flashlight

    PNW Lunar Taco

    Welcome from Camano Island, great looking rig, love the color and awesome to see you out adventuring with it. Bonus points for going with a manual trans!, getting hard to find any rigs with that option any more. Look forward to seeing you at some OB events soon.

    You are correct, bottle size does not matter.

    What's your latest camping gear purchase, and what caused you to buy it?

    Picked up a Jackery 1000 and one of their solar panels on the last day of their Christmas sale. Should be here Saturday. Being thinking about it for some time, especially what size to get, finally decided to go big or go home lol. Not sure if I will need two solar panels, but figured I...

    Pretty sad :-(

    This past year's politics and current events have helped to wean me back off of social media for the most part, got tired of everyone trashing each other and the general hate going around if you don't agree with what others believe. No longer following all the chaos and things I can't do...

    Need to find a hose for my Camp Chef Everest

    I believe that the Camp Chef hoses contain a regulator at the bottle end, and they screw into the stove directly, replacing the rigid section of pipe that the 1lb bottles attach to (I believe that that piece of piping contains a built in regulator, which is why there hose/regulator bypasses it...

    Gazelle Tent

    We love our Gazelle simply for the speed, and overall interior space. While travelling we seldom seem to make camp before the crack of dusk, being able to have the tent, cots, sleeping gear and dog bed all set up within 10 minutes is big deal. Well worth the tents major downside, its...

    Icom 2730a and Mobilinkd are OTW, who is ready for APRS?

    @M Rose @Greg Eigsti @KM4DWS - Thank you all for the information, it has sufficiently peaked my interest to investigate further. Have never played with Linux but have always wanted to. Now just need to set aside some time to watch some u tubes

    Overland Toolkit - What is needed

    With todays vehicles, adding a small Bluetooth capable OBD reader can be a big help, plug it into the port and connect to your smart phone, $20 gets you a fairly reasonable code reader, don't forget to download a list of codes for your particular vehicle to your phone so that you can look up...

    US Northwest PNW Winter Destinations?

    We still head up run as many FS roads as we can in the Cascades during the winter, Usually off of Hwys 2, 20 or Mountain Loop. Obviously the weather plays a big role in just how far we make it up particular road, but we just offset that with driving less of more different roads. Usually we self...

    Cheap upgrade to my pintle hitch

    Matt, hello from just a bit west of you, even closer than @Greg Eigsti lol, Will be good to hear how long the tire lasts, and if the tread can defend the zip tie's integrity. With pintle hitches, the key to a quiet ride is a good match between the ring and the pintle hook, I have never...

    Overland Toolkit - What is needed

    Vinay, here is copy of a response I made on another thread, some of it may be helpful. one thing that can help out if you are concerned with overall size of the kit, you can tailor it to you particular vehicle. Most vehicles will not require a full set of sockets and wrenches, and those that...

    CB Radio questions

    Ham Radio Outlet has a pretty good selection of mounts and antennas, They have a store in Oakland, not to far from you. Sometimes it is nice to be able actually look at things in person before you buy, and it helps keep the brick and mortar stores alive. If you are going with the thru roof...
