For some, it happened years ago, for others, yesterday. No matter the time or effort, we all started somewhere on a journey towards the “Spirit of the Wild!” Thank you Uncle Ted for reminding us of our roots! Do you remember what it was like starting out on your journey? These are the campfire...

Finally got around to putting the original hook points on. Sure didn't have faith in the poorly welded points that were on the bumper. So now I have a secure spot to grab onto!

You build it, I might buy one from ya! Same mind set of just building it myself but never thought of building an 12v ac unit

Appreciate the comments! I guess I might have to be the test dummy for this unit! The other options are too costly for my blood. Since power was a topic, I am definitely not concerned with power consumption. My system design is stout! I also would not run it constantly either so there’s that...

Recently completed a 13 day North GA/NC/SC route and Starlink worked like a charm! Even with obstructions, I was able to send pics and use Wi-Fi calling. Yes it took a little longer to send but concept works! Not once did I loose comms.

Does anyone use this type of product? Is there a better one out there thst won’t break the bank? It is stupid hot in my rig at times and a little relief would be nice! https://www.bougerv.com/products/3500btu-portable-air-conditioner

Currahee 2025! Iconic and sobering place in my heart! 8 years with the 101st!

I totally agree about just using “manual.” This will be the only time I go thru this. If it fails again, so be it. I still have confidence in my truck, and I bought it used…so this time I will have patience with it.

The only draw back of the griddle is it’s non stick not cast iron. So all my metal tools of the trade are pointless…

More good news came the other day!! Not only are the knuckle seals bad, so is the driver outer shaft. We also received 2 new seals from ford and one was bad!!! At least I will have spares if I break on the trail! I love all this good news! I hate paying Ford dealer prices but I’m at the mercy...

From the start, I have always said that I am not a trained mechanic. But I played one on tv once. Anyways, my 4wd is vacuum actuated at the hubs. When I rebuilt the axle, everything was replaced. When I went on my test ride to north FL, I got stuck in the sand. That’s when I knew something was...

I almost got that oven but the wife got me the Ninja Woodfire™ 8-in-1 Outdoor Oven instead and holy smokers this thing is another game changer! Set me off on a year long hunt for a perfect pizza dough! Smoked brisket sealed the deal too!

Just finished 2 weeks with my blackstone and I wouldn’t change a thing! But an open fire was definitely worth it!

One of many creekside nights on the GA Traverse! The only rainy night of the trip didn’t slow us down!

What a trip! Amazing peace and tranquillity! The rain held off most days in the beginning and only 1 rainy night! It was absolutely perfect weather! The truck performed admirably and only a few things wiggled loose! After the GA Traverse, the SCAR was a letdown. But my adventure spirit pushed...

So how did the trip go?

After 11 days in the woods, I am finally on my way home! It started at zero dark thirty and 20 foot elevation in SWFLA, thru the GA mountains via the W->E route of the GA traverse, to our highest point of 6500+- at Clingmans Dome, thru Toccoa which we drove the “Currahee” Mountain. Tomorrow we...
