    Too comment or not to comment! That is the question

    On that "Toxic Masculinity" theme, I am looking for the T-shirt that points out manspreading as the original social distancing. We were onto something all along.

    Whatever happened to "We have nothing to fear but fear itself"?

    Never let a chance to be holier than thou go to waste. :neutral:

    Meh. It was all a conspiracy ploy anyways. :tonguewink:

    High Mileage Rigs And Legendary Powerplants

    My dd is a '96 XJ that is less than 2K miles shy of 200K. My tow rig is a '95 Cummins with something on the order of 325K. I would not be surprised to see those vehicles go over double what they are already at. Both the Jeep 4.0L and Cummins 12V are known for their durability and longevity.

    Who are you voting for?

    Probably belongs in the "What is it" thread. I think it is holy cow.

    DOGs will Be Dogs!

    This looks like a great place to share one of my favorite stories... I also have a large GSD. I trained him with a local GSD owners group. One of the gals had an especially large GSD (120lbs) and she lived in a less than desirable part of town. She got fed up with watching other people allow...

    Little buddy heater??

    I have one and I do use it while sleeping. I also use a battery operated CO detector and I made a base for the heater so it won't be so likely to get knocked over in the tent. It would appear I am still here to talk about it. The tent with which I have used it is a Coleman Montana 8. Nothing...

    Anybody else out there do their own body work and paint their vehicles themselves?

    My father was my car painter, but he is gone now. It is a skill I am going to have to learn. And no, he didn't teach me to paint. He taught me to prep, but the painting was something only he did himself. He was old school. DeVilbiss high pressure, low volume gun. I don't think he would...

    Living in Overland heaven.

    This right here is the biggest jump forward when it comes to quality of life. No one likes it when the playground bully shakes them down and takes away their lunch money. It only gets worse when it gets institutionalized. Congrats on finding the better life.

    HAM

    Add one more vote for a mobile unit over a handheld. I have a Yaesu handheld, but I hardly ever use it. The Kenwood mobile in my rig is far preferable. As to what to get, one thing to consider is what others you are likely to travel with are also using. The advantage to be had there is...

    Death of the “Coleman” Lantern?

    I really like my Coleman lanterns. I have a bunch of them. They are easy to fix and the sound and smell brings back memories. I have no intentions of getting rid of them. But I do take LED lanterns when I go camping anymore. The LEDs are so much more compact, so much lighter, so much less...

    Has Anybody seen this before

    Some of us are trying to get some fresh air, dealing with the fumes from the cracked exhaust. (Probably goes a long way to explaining that Jeep thing that no one else understands.)

    Company to pay 50K to travel across US

    Are they actually going to stock that van with beer? Or with Michelob?

    Has Anybody seen this before

    Not worth the effort or cost, but it could be fun to get a taxidermist to set up a real duck plastered across my brush guard.

    Dang. Not a single mention of little bells and bear spray.

    What is it with axes?

    Yep. Those are situations where gloves make sense. Especially brush.

    What is it with axes?

    That is what callouses are for. Seriously. I have gloves. Quite a number of pair for different tasks. And I am pretty picky about some of those glove/task combinations. And I don't like gloves with a swinging tool (axe, maul, sledge, singlejack, hammer...). Gloves interfere with a good...

    Has overlanding become elitist ?

    Figgers. I am always a day late and a dollar short. I will have to settle for getting in on the second edition after all the elite get the bugs worked out of the first edition.
