What I know - We will arrive in Telluride early morning Friday, July 24th. We will leave Monday the 27th. There will be 4 Jeeps, 3 of which are...
So I bought a fridge a few months back that was an open box item, Aplicool Cf55. I just thought it was a weird 12v accessory plug. The Fridge kept cycling when I was off-roading this past weekend. I had to wedge bags to get it to stay put. Less than optimal. After a little research I am...

I find myself often trying to plan trips for a group with a variety of schedules.
Often it means that someone is going to leave after the primary group and depending on the area its not always possible to pin point exactly where to meet.
So I've been thinking it wouid be nice to have a means...
Got a couple friends who would like to make a trip to Big Bear over labor day weekend. We're meeting there coming from Phoenix and San Francisco.
I'm aware of the Yellow Post sites having stayed at one last year passing through, but with the holiday weekend I wouldn't want to bank on getting...
I picked up a Smittybilt Overlander RTT during Black Friday and am now getting ready to have a rack built on my Trailer to support it. I am considering doing it myself in which case I would need to keep it pretty basic.
I am thinking square tubing but not sure what size I would need.
Here is...
On those multi-day multi-destination trips, when do you set up camp?
Do you keep going until you reach a pre-planned place?
Or do you try to setup camp after X amount of Miles, or at X O'clock?
As a planner, I usually know where I want to camp each night and sometimes that is a bit ambitious...
I used some 4" hinges from Home Depot for the lid. They seem to have shifted and allowed to lid to move forward so I am looking to upgrade. Thinking weld on hinges. Right now I am looking at the two options below. Please let me know what you think or if you would go a different route.

Hello,
Looking to be up around Crater Lake the following weekend 7/6 -7/9. I am looking for suggestions on dispersed camping. We are deciding to do this trip on short notice so reservations would be hard to come by this time of year on short notice and the Recreation.gov website is down.

Picked up an offroad trailer recently that had a 20# tank with mount on the tongue.
I've since put a tongue box up there and would like to have the propane tank on the fenders. Problem is the 20# tank is wider than the fender. So I am looking for a smaller tank.
Any ideas where to get one...

THE STORY
I've been eyeing trailers for sometime but did not really expect to buy one...
Hello,
Baja is at the top of places I would love to explore and checkout. As anticipated, I was laid off work 2 weeks ago and am taking a couple months off. So I am trying to make the most of this time. I know a lot of people report safe adventures, but it feels like Baja is somewhere I would...
Hello,
Doing a trip to Death Valley later in the month. Meeting up with friends from Salt Lake and coming from Phoenix myself.
The first stop on our trip is at Bad Water Basin, but will be meeting up late the night before. Looking for somewhere nearby, outside of the park that we can pull up...
This trailer is being advertised as a Motorcycle trailer, but I see potential as an Overland Trailer.
Looking for some thoughts from others if it would be a good base or if my plans / expectations would suggest that I would be better off to keep looking. I like the size of it. Not to big, not...
