TTT with another price drop. -TJ

Added another accessory... Overlanding is like Barbies for old fat guys! I got the Zero Declination "drop tent" with their mounting kit for the FWC. The mounting kit is really just hardware to allow you to mount it with 3 holes through the side of your camper (always fun putting holes in a...

That's all fine and well, and I'm perfectly aware of R-value. My point is you said you'd pick a R-value of 4.5 or above for "frosty winter conditions." Take a look at Thermarest's line: Therm-A-Rest Sleeping Pad R-Value Rankings | Therm-A-Rest Blog Nearly any of them people would use for...

Looking forward to watching your VLOGs. I consider myself pretty knowledgeable even in obscure non-North American market vehicles, and I had to Google Iveco. It looks like yours would be after the Ford Trucks merger, right? What is the drivetrain in it? Does it use many Ford parts? -TJ

Interesting you find the self-inflating mats are a disadvantage in the cold. Therm-a-rest's name literally comes from its thermal insulating properties. -TJ

Steak. That's just how we do things. -TJ

It really depends on the vehicle, the person and how you define "mods." The thread title asks about first 3 "mods" but then in the text you ask about the "things you would need...". IMHO, I'd answer very differently if I'm talking about vehicle mods, or just things somebody should have with...

Interestingly, it seems to have gotten a bit worse, at least in specific scenarios. I went back to an old thread and just tried to open 2 additional tabs of images in the thread, and hit the wall. -TJ

That's why I recommended the KO2s over any of the MTs I've run. -TJ

BFG KO2s. I have KO2s on my Trailhawk, Patagonia M/Ts on my WJ, and Toyo M/Ts on my Silverado 2500HD. The KO2s are the best all-around tire of all of them. The Patagonias are surprisingly quiet on road, but I hear they wear very quickly (I don't have enough miles on them yet to say ;) ). The...

Exped Megamats. I have the Megamat LXW for tent camping, and the Megamat Duo 15 LW+ for my Four Wheel Camper. I love them, super comfortable (and I'm a heavy side-sleeper), do NOT lose air, insulate from cold great, pack up relatively small (not backpacking small... but certainly great for...

Year, model, drivetrain, etc? -TJ

Some great info here, and I'm struggling with this decision myself. I have two rigs to equip, so I really don't want to have multiple hard-wired solutions per vehicle. I'm leaning heavily towards GMRS currently (still need to pick which unit, of course) for my hard-wired solution. I was...

Love those bullnose Broncos! Thanks for sharing. For me, IDK when it really started. I grew up going backpacking. I also grew up with a cabin in my Dad's side of the family way out in the woods in Idaho. I'm talking a real cabin, you don't sleep in it, it's just a kitchen/dining area and...

Yup, I used 4 low just to make it easier on my truck as well as easier on the trail. The van, well he didn't have a choice. I agree, it was amazing that there was only one other group up at Prewitt Ridge. I'll PM you. -TJ

Believe it or not, my rig is bigger. The wheelbase on the Suburban should be 131.5" and 219.5" length. I believe mine should be 153.7" and 240.2". -TJ

I've had a Solo Ranger for, IDK... 3-4 years now. I really love it. The prices have come way down due to competition, but I paid "top dollar" when I got mine and people thought I was crazy... until they saw it working. Then most of them went out and bought one themselves. My only complaint...
