    What is your dream overland vehicle?

    Other than the light bar that looks exactly like the suburban my family had when I was growing up. My dad has OCD so it was always immaculate. Loved that Burban. I am just like you. My dream truck is what I already have. My 1991 F250 7.3IDI Manual with exhaust brake. I just recently started my...

    Front Suspension Advice

    Hey everyone, I am in the middle of my build with my 1991 F250 7.3IDI manual. I want to convert the front axle leaf springs to coil and shock so I can get more travel in my front suspension. I am keeping the back with my leaf springs because I still need the 1 ton rear end for my farm work and...

    Ram 2500 build thread

    I am also most likely going to go with a CVT (Cascadia Vehicle Tent). Mainly due to the outstanding quality and durability of the tents. A plus is that I am from Oregon so I like to support local business. They are from the same town my sister lives in, Bend Oregon. You can even get an insulated...

    Ram 2500 build thread

    Hey, I am in the process of doing the same thing. Found this company that I am giving some serious consideration to for a rack. Mainly due to the strong durability of the rack, the ability to customize it for your specific vehicle, and I want to bring my quad which will fit under the rack...

    Would like some advice

    Thank you very much for the advice! The biggest thing I am concerned with about hard top tents is the room. The Tepui tent I posted above states it is a queen size bed, some of the reviews online state it may be a tad bit larger than queen. When my wife and I are both in the tent how much room...

    I don't understand open bed trucks with racks and tents.

    haha you have to ask our wives for this answer. My wife says the same thing. I personally dont want a camper or canopy anyway because I want to be able to access the whole bed from outside without having to pull everything out or climb to the back of a canopy. I also dont want to store a spare...

    Would like some advice

    Thank you! She is truly my favorite truck I have ever had and I have had brand new Dodges, Fords, and Chevy's. I am not particular to either but this generation, hands down in my opinion Ford really did rule the market and to this day I would choose this truck over most brand new trucks. heavy...

    Thank you very much! I will check out that Garmin Inreach. Obviously you like that Garmin, is there anything you think I should steer clear from?

    Would like some advice

    Hey Everyone, Thank you very much for all the advice so far. I am planning on using this truck for long overlanding trips. Not so much black diamond stuff (have a Rubicon for that) but more trail type stuff in the middle of no where. I really want to go on some Mohave runs. I live in Oregon and...

    I don't understand open bed trucks with racks and tents.

    Glad someone said it because I was about too. ;-)

    Would like some advice

    Hey everyone, I have a 1990 Ford F-250 extended cab, 7.3IDI, five speed manual that I am about to start getting equipment for. I am having work done on the motor, transmission, and drivetrain right now so mechanically she is amazing. I am having an engine brake installed as well to assist with...

    Hello

    Hey everyone, Scott here. Have a 1990 F250 7.3 IDI 5 speed manual. I love this truck and am going to convert it. I am new to overlanding but very interested as I like to 4x4 (nothing extreme like rock climbing) and camp. It appears overlanding is a combination of both. I am really excited to...

    Hey, I'm new to this fight and overlanding in general. I am from Salem but it doesn't appear there are many overlanders over here. I have a 1990 F250 Diesel I want to convert. I was wondering if you would be able to assist me and let me know where you think the best place to go is for overland...
