    How Overlanders are Ruining Overlanding

    In fairness, Zim, theoretically they could return to the site any time before checkout, and clean up (um...) If the maid saw my hotel room at 9 or 10 am she'd be appalled!

    How Overlanders are Ruining Overlanding

    Campfire permit in the land of wildfires I can understand. Earthquakes, landslides and I hear you guys even get hurricanes now

    No overlanding for a long time

    Lady at work in her 50's just had open heart a few weeks ago. She's driving and may be back to work full time in October. God live her but she's no example of good health or shape. Medical advances the last 30 years are stellar. Do what you are supposed to and you will be back soon

    How Overlanders are Ruining Overlanding

    I'm sorry...overlanding certificate? Overlanding CERTIFICATE?!? Only in Germany would they think of such a thing. And Massachusetts... To drive and camp on the Cap Cod National Seashore, you have to have your vehicle inspected beyond that of the normal annual inspection. Among other things...

    What is the best piece of advice you can give a new overlander?

    ^^^ this You are buying a new vehicle that needs nothing, at considerable expense. Or you are buying a used vehicle that will undoubtedly need work. If you well off, the first option is easy. If you are not well off, I hope you are handy. Either way, expect and be at peace with some...

    Map Book

    I use these here in the Northeast. Oddly, the cover for Maine is a different color than all the rest.

    Let's see those vans!

    Big fan of orange. Nothing rhymes with it, it stands out and is a Halloween color.

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Hated this generation when it first came out. It was the first gen that was built with only 4 doors and I really hated Chevy for taking away the 2 Door Big Blazer option. But they grew on me. Would ANYTHING from 2005 be very reliable without a lot of maintenance at this point? Probably not...

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Still have my old Cobra 25 with weather. It's a classic. So much crap on the air, but I use it for weather or traffic crash details more than anything

    Starting F-150 build for big national park trip

    If you have a tent, or tow a small trailer to sleep in...you're done. All modifications neccessary are there. These big trucks have it all, just in a bigger package than a Wrangler. Power. Height, right out of the box. Cargo space up the wazoo. Comfort for the ride.

    Don't be "that guy"

    I wholeheartedly agree. You ARE responsible for every bullet that leaves your gun (unless you are Alec Baldwin for some reason). All I'm saying is if for example, you have 200 acres of rolling woodland, and there nothing but trees, and you aren't shooting at a high angle where a bullet on a...

    Don't be "that guy"

    I dont know. I'm in Massachusetts, one of the most -if not THE most - firearms restrictive states in the union, so I understand the desire to regulate. But I dont know that regulations or government overreach would do any good here

    Don't be "that guy"

    Again...on private property, a person is not restricted from firing guns out vehicle windows that I am aware. If it is illegal there, then fine. Doing so from a municipal, county, state, or federal road, or doing so within x-hundred feet of a building is a whole different set of rules...
