    Lets talk keeping you coffee hot!

    Pretty much any double-walled vacuum insulated cup is going to do a great job. I have a Zojirushi coffee thermos that's amazing. I could put coffee in it, leave the coffee in my car and go to work all day in the winter, and it will still be warm at the end of the day. It's nuts. If you can...

    Waterproofing the Plano Sportsman box

    I did mine a year ago, and they still work like when I first installed them. The strip hasn't deteriorated at all. :)

    Camp Photos!

    Is that a DIY shell or did you get it from somewhere? It looks great.

    How much fuel capacity is really necessary?

    The question is, how far out do you go? In my fantasy life, I'm hundreds of miles from nowhere... in reality, living on the east coast, I'm never too far from fuel. If you take longer trips, or travel out west 5 to 10 gallons are probably all you'll need. But that will depend on the...

    Your choice for deep cycle batteries...

    Andrew St. Pierre-White just put out a video about his new cruiser that he's building for Australia, and in it he talks about a new battery that he has chosen. I believe it is a lead-crystal deep cycle batter that allows you to use nearly all of your AH because it has very low sulfation...

    Plano Trunk sizes

    I've got 3 1719s... I think they are the medium size. I like them. I can fit 3 abreast between the wheel wells in the back of our 4Runner, they're stackable, and they're reinforced, so my big @ss can sit on them. They are 30" long and about 14" tall. There is a slight taper to them, so at...

    Just did this on my 1719s, it was easy and should work perfectly. Thanks for the guide!

    Gobi Stealth Rack alternative

    Check out Prinsu designs (google prinsu racks - for some reason I'm having problems with hyperlinks in Tapatalk otherwise I'd link it for you). They're aluminum like Rhino and Frontrunner, and are priced very competitively. They have a small, 3/4, and full length option. I'm personally...

    In search of: The Best Ground Tents

    We have 3 tents and all of them are great ... a 2p Kelty Zen, a 4p REI Halfdome, and a 6p 12Survivors Shire. The 12Survivors is our most recent purchase and may also be the biggest bang for the buck. It runs about $200, features a bathtub construction, full mesh walls, fully taped seams, a full...

    Overlanding with cast iron skillet

    I have one of those too and can't recommend it enough. Just add hot water and scrub. Works like a charm, and if it gets grimy cleaning the chain mail is easy, just a little soap and wash it like you're washing your hands...

    PANTS

    I recently picked up a pair of CQR pants. They're a poly/cotton blend pant (65p/35c), with a rip stop fabric, and a really good durable waterproof coating. The knees are reinforced, and they have 8 pockets or so. They seemed to be true to size to me, and they also have a little elastic in the...

    Axes

    When we go out we typically bring a hatchet and Lapland saw. The hatchet that I use is a small Marbles axe, and it is fantastic. It is only about $20 and is a spectacular value. WranglerStar did a video on it a while back and you can see it here. I think there is also a link to where you can...

    Need Opinion On 4Runner Tire Question

    Hey! I have a '15 Trail edition with the stock Dunlap AT20 tires. Don't be fooled by the AT in their name, these are essentially highway tires, and are P (passenger) rated. Having said that, they will take you much further than you think they could go. However, if you are going to be driving...

    Expedition Overland?

    I feel kind of meh about their channel. It feels to me that they've gone from relatable and engaging to something that feels more like a Discovery Channel reality TV show. Not my cup of tea, but I can see what other folks like about it.

    Corner balanced suspension #coilovers

    If you do get corner balanced, try your best to pack the truck the same way every time. One wouldn't want their suspension compensating for a load that has been moved to the other side of the truck ;)

    How much stress is too much stress for CV joints?

    I'm not sure what is available in Jeep land, and I'm a mechanical idiot so I don't know if these things are universal or anything, but Toyota's and I'm sure other IFS 4x4's have differential drop kits available. They run about $30 bucks, consist of longer bolts and spacers, and return the diff...
