    Help with Water System

    I'm no plumber but I have used PEX. Why would you want to disconnect it? Shark Bite fittings can be disconnected. I would make sure it can be easily drained at a low spot. PEX bends easy but there are limitations to that. There is a lot on the interwebs about advantages and disadvantages...

    Plates and bowls, let's overthink this together

    A little off-topic but I have been using these for about a year and am highly pleased. I see they are on sale and maybe a 10% discount also going through the website. X-Pot: Collapsible Backpacking Pot | Sea to Summit Then again, I mostly just boil water for coffee and use a ceramic lined...

    Oklahoma/Arkansas Summer 2022

    I was thinking of stopping off in the Ozarks on my way westward this summer. Spent a week out there a few years ago along the Mulberry, Buffalo, and White Rivers. Not much fishing in the Mulberry but there was a Byrd's RV Park where they had an overlanding jamboree. It's right on the edge of...

    Interesting thoughts to ponder! What's your take?

    I spend hours, days even, looking at the google and other maps in areas I plan to explore and places I need to stop for the night. I am amazed at satellite views. When I find areas I want to stop I will print the maps and make a folder to reference when I am on the way there. Maybe some FS and...

    New to Overlanding - '17 Tacoma - need help on where to start

    Yeah, I got a fold up rocking chair now. So, it's more like Jethro driving alone. Trust me, when I am headed out west to go off grid for a few months fishing the rig will be "fully" loaded.

    New to Overlanding - '17 Tacoma - need help on where to start

    I love my '17 Tacoma DC, but I can't even imagine how one would get four people and tent, food, sleeping gear, clothes, cooler, etc., in my truck. Admittedly, I have a lot of stuff. I took my backseat out to accommodate a fridge/freezer, battery, and put things like clothes, valuables, and...

    Poll: I approach trip planning by...

    Since much of my planning is related to fishing and places I want to see, I do a lot of online research far ahead of my trip. I love to look at satellite views of of the areas I want to explore. I have nearly memorized large areas of several states that I plan to tour. That said, I have found...

    Tread Lightly when your out

    I usually disperse camp. I was pleasantly surprised last year on my western tour that most places I found were relatively trash free...relatively. I just plan on spending a few minutes a day to pickup the other trash. Maybe not all if it's particularly trashy, but up to two or three times what...

    Carry?

    O.K. I'm a little slow. Yeah, I just assume everyone carries a weapon. Like duct tape. Don't leave home without it!

    Carry?

    At first, I thought you were referencing a weapon. That would have really got me suspicious. I think the other stuff is legal in N.M. now. He was probably going to give you a discount card to his dispensary!

    Dispersed camping in the Black Hills South Dakota - Help

    I was through there last July just looking around. I kind of do things on the fly and had no real plan for a campsite. The weather was warm so I was looking for some altitude away from the crowd. Ended up late in the day up at the Bear Mountain Lookout Tower. Great view from up there. It was...

    Convince me I should keep lugging around my hi-lift

    I have one of those inflatable air bags. Never used it but seems like it might be handy and packs well. I'm not hardcore off roader like some. I just want to get to secluded areas to camp and fish. I have a hi-lift but not going to pack it across the country. I guess if I were going looking to...

    Overland Related Recreation

    Got to spend a few days in a remote location with my son recently. All that time I spent taking him hunting and fishing finally paying off! He called me this big gobbler the other day. He has become quite an accomplished outdoorsman and at twenty two has surpassed me in many categories. He is...

    Toyota

    Might want to be more specific. Tires, suspension, engine, etc.? Toyota has some on-line forums just for your specific vehicle I'm pretty sure. Look at various forums here. There are many that have built up 4Runners and can give you various ideas depending on what it is you are interested in...

    US Southeast Cape Lookout, NC

    Now that you mentioned it, I don't remember seeing any trash on the upper end at Hatteras NS either. I'm pretty sure if there was any the wind , storms and currents either bury it or blow it to Timbuktu. Actually, I do remember picking up some trash on the sound side last time I was there...

    Poll: When you camp, do you normally have cell service?

    On the coast here one gets good signal because flat and relatively close to cities even in some spots that seem isolated. Out West I couldn't get a signal on the edge of Cody, WY., even with a booster. That was a little strange. Interstates and populated areas usually have a dependable...

    Freespirit Recreation (FSR) - 55" Evolution Issues

    Add TuffStuff Overland to the list of RTT dealers that stand behind their product. I have an ALPHA that developed some issues just past the warranty date. I thought they might send a new part or suggest a fix. Naw, they just sent a whole new RTT no charges. Now I have two that I will sell. I...
