    DIY Light Weight Drawer System / Sleeping Platform

    I have a basic box/ pallet style set up I built just last week. Basically 2"x8" lumber cut at about 74 inches, forming a short, but wide letter E, with plywood atop and bottom. The open end of the E is obviously pointed to the tailgate. Drawers slide into the empty spaces of the E. I hope that...

    Garmin Overlander $200 Rebate FYI

    Yep. Just have it on sale. Rebates are just marketing database building exercises, put on your back.

    2017 GMC Canyon Denali CCLB budget-ish build

    Nice subtle build. I'm thinking about those Deavers, since I have a Lear 180 on my bed ('14 Sierra z71 double cab), and built a platform in the rear. Hiw much did that Decked system weigh out of the box?

    Overlanding with Anxiety

    Nice. And true. Boiled right down to the nitty gritty.

    Overlanding with Anxiety

    Many younger people have no idea what it was like in the 70's and 80's when personal communication devices and trackers were only known in Star Trek. They have no idea how to even live if they cannot monitor and be monitored, si your girl is in reasonable company by today's standards. I'm no...

    Boston to Big Sky

    In fairness to @Road , there is a Lewis and Clark Expeditions fly fishing outfitters that take people along the Smith River, I guess. But the Jerry Lewis and Mel Smith tour sounds like a blast! Mel had a great walk-on part in Princess Bride

    Boston to Big Sky

    I saw an article a few years ago that told the story of an old rifle that had been leaned on a tree in the late 1800's, possibly after a skirmish or battle, that had only just been rediscovered, still leaning against the tree but its stock was now the color of extremely well seasoned cordwood

    Boston to Big Sky

    Wall Drug is on the list already. And I thought about detouring in order to get to Devil's Tower and all that. Or maybe more north to the old ICBM site

    Boston to Big Sky

    I WOULD be interested in knowing more about that Lewis and Smith Expedition, though. That's one I havent read about...

    Boston to Big Sky

    Thanks, Road! Having a copilot who has already been there would undoubtedly steer me to all the best places. I'd love that. As with RJ, I'm takin' whatever you're sellin' and want to keep any good advice and locations with me, though we will have to plot it out and experience it for ourselves...

    Boston to Big Sky

    I've been known to handle a firearm now and then. Not sure if we will make it to the Cody, but we might. This past weekend I replaced the A/C condenser and refilled with coolant. I have swapped out the transfer case fluid, the coolant. Did the spark plugs and wires and the brake pads and...

    2006 GMC Sierra aka “granopy”

    By the way, if you are truly "done with trucks", please feel free to have yours shipped to me. Old school but seems pretty solid.

    Boston to Big Sky

    I do like History. And thought about Little Big Horn. It's on my paper list, nut didnt list it here. However for the recreational aspect I was thinking custer State Park

    Boston to Big Sky

    Thank you for the tips, RJ. Attention will be paid, and I will look for that camp site. You may have mentioned to me before in another thread, about going through VT, Canada and returning via the UP. I like the idea, but as you just said, we may not be allowed. And if we are dont want to chance...

    Boston to Big Sky

    This Friday we are heading out on our road trip/camping/ nephew's wedding. Leaving the Boston area and driving out west. Our destination is Big Sky. We have two weeks to get out there and back while attending my nephew's wedding and seeing what we want to see. Me, the Lady Beagle, and my dog...
