    Fridge size recommendations

    I went from a Yeti 50 cooler to a National Luna 90 Twin fridge/freezer. Holy smoke is there a lot of room in there! Much more than I need, but I bought it at about the same price as an ARB 50, so I couldn't pass it up. When I'm not using the full capacity, I keep Costco's square lemonade jugs...

    Welcome, Kengineer! The automated access upgrade just went live last week, so I imagine this is just to make sure. @Michael will likely edit the email as the process is proven relatively foolproof. Thanks for the support!

    Trophies, Badges, and Ranks!

    I think the first examples are showing the latest badge that you've earned in each track. That's what mine seem to be showing. The only places to see all badges are either in the badge chosen or by going through each track and seeing which you've earned.

    Jordan put together a tutorial on how to display or not display whatever badges that you want: Tutorial on how to set a badge on display under your name/avatar Hopefully that helps.

    Deleting a Thread

    Joey had PM'd me the above question earlier and I just replied. I figure that I'll reply here as well for anyone interested in the answer: No, users cannot delete a thread. If you do want a thread deleted at some time, or merged with an existing topic if there are several replies, just let me...

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    I took advantage of this 66° day here in northern Ohio to remove the crossbars on my Prinsu roof rack. I will be milling access slots to drop carriage bolts in from the middle rather than having to remove the rail to slide them in from the ends. Shoulda done this before installing in the spring...

    Camera Gear, Tires, and Secrets!

    Back in the '70s and '80s in my pre-autofocus days I ran a series of Minolta bodies and Rocker lenses. They were way underrated when compared to the more expensive brands. Marketing and lens giveaways to sports and nature photographers were Canon and Nikon's forte. I had a Rokkor 50mm f/1.2...

    Darkside's Hiker Trailer 5x9 Offroad Build

    If you are looking at the Mid-Range or Off-Road Hiker models, they are on taller suspension than the Basic or Deluxe models. The roof of my trailer is only something like 5'5" tall. (I got my tape measure and headed for the door to measure before remembering that it is 150 mikes away in my...

    Darkside's Hiker Trailer 5x9 Offroad Build

    I'm not @Darkside Overland but I too went with the side swing door on my Hiker 5X8 Deluxe. I'm only 5'8", but the upswing door would require me to duck when getting close to the trailer. The side swing door is also substantially larger. The side swing door is a $100 option.

    Okay, I went into your account settings and adjusted another option. Under Security, there is the option as where to grab your location; IP, your entered location, etc. it was set to pick any. I changed it to your specific entered location. The location you entered resolves correctly on Google...

    Steve’s 2016 Toyota 4Runner Modification and Adventure Thread

    Raingler full-length ceiling net installed. What a nice piece of hardware! It fits great, is easily adjustable, and doesn’t block the rear view mirror too much while empty (see pic.) The quality is top notch, will long outlast me, and is made in the USA.

    Official Forum Rules?

    Yes, and yes. We've been going to put together a guideline for sometime now, but it keeps getting sidelined. Common sense rules generally apply. I like Cory's rule on Midwest Overlanders; "Don't be an asshat!" :)

    Overland Bound Emblems!

    Dave, Go to the Store, and from there, you will find a link to the Member Store. There you will find additional badges. Sorta hard to find, and@Michael and @Corrie were going to have that fixed. Apparently it still needs addresses. Steve
