    A quick getaway!

    Okay... after months of sheltering in place... me and my social bubble did a quick weekend escape to the Sierra's. Nothing like fresh mountain air to lift your spirits!

    99 Ford ecoline lift

    http://www.actionvansuspension.com/ Action Vans in San Clemente Ca makes a nice lift kit for 2 wheel drive ford e-series vans. They'll ship it to you in Virginia. It's pretty to install yourself or you could have a local shop install it for you.

    Overlanding with older vehicles

    I'm with you on the traveling light. I'll be doing the same.. Just my Bronco and compact camping gear to keep things light and simple.

    Post pictures of your camp kitchen

    I have the same Dual Fuel Butane / Propane stove. I love it! It has a 12,000 BTU rating which is awesome. I prefer running in it on Propane as the Butane seems to work great when the bottle is new but after a few minutes of use, it diminishes it's output to about half. It may be the...

    Convince me I should keep lugging around my hi-lift

    My wife gave me a hi-lift jack for Christmas 35 years ago. Since then, we have explored approximately 6 to 10 trips a year.... That's well over 200 excursions. Over all the years, I can count on less than both of my hands how many times I have used it. Probably less than once every 20 to 30...

    Nomad Kitchen

    Cool looking unit but it isn't nearly as refined as the pullkitchen that Papabear is building. 700.00 seems like a bargain for that unit. When you factor a couple sheets of marine grade birch plywood, full extension drawer slides, and labor.... doesn't leave much for profit. I've been...

    Overlanding with older vehicles

    I'm with you on the 60's. I love the simplicity of old machines. I alternate between my 1968 Bronco and my 1966 Barracuda as my daily driver when it's not raining. There is something special about a huge thin steering wheel, tons of glass and and simple radio without GPS and other...

    DIY aluminum fridge box

    I agree with papadave.. The Dometic slider is an excellent solution.

    DIY aluminum fridge box

    Wow... Papadave's unit is amazing! Looks like a high quality well thought out unit. I agree with Papadave, that having a organized pullout system really does change overlanding. As an avid off-road traveler and owner of a high end cabinet shop, I have built many vehicle based cabinets for...

    DIY aluminum fridge box

    I have built some overland cases using 8020. You can find everything you need at 8020.net The stuff is expensive and fairly labor intensive to work with but looks awesome. I think the goosegear products are top notch and are priced very fair for the amount of materials and labor that goes...

    Staying active and healthy in these times......

    I own a high end production cabinet shop that services the entire bay area. 34 years in business and have never experienced anything like this before.

    Pictures off your first time off-roading/overlanding

    Staying active and healthy in these times......

    I live on the ridge top above Half Moon Bay in the San Francisco Bay Area. It's pretty rural and in the redwoods with extremely good air quality. I've been escaping cabin fever by riding my mountain bike on the local trails and surfing a secluded cove at the bottom of our little mountain...
