Some of you may remember me, from back in the day.. OB member 2486. I had an 04 Dodge ram 2500, and lived in Southern California. A lot has changed, and we moved from So Cal to the Kansas City, MO. My wife and I are avid campers/preppers, and as such had a 2004 Dodge ram 2500 quad cab long...

Every year, My wife, two daughters, and myself decide on where we are going to take our "big" vacation. We usually end up camping, and usually in a national park somewhere. A lifelong goal that the wife and I share is to visit every National Park in the country before we die, so doing our...

My arq awning finally arrived after some delays from dhl, who quite honestly is probably the worst shipping company on the face of the planet. The box arrived destroyed but luckily the only thing broken were the plastic end caps to cover the holes in the awning poles, which is no biggie to me...

So I had gotten the itch to go camping a couple of weekends ago, and posted up on the forum to see who wanted to join... I got a couple of confirmed attendants, @GrizzCamp being one of them. His wife, son, and he met me, my family and a bunch of other strangers in the middle of the desert to...

So I am not sure what is going on with my truck lately.. It has factory dual batteries that are just over 3 years old. This past weekend I went camping and the truck was parked with no accessories draining the truck batteries. When I went to start the truck, after 3 days of camping, the truck...

I was getting the itch to go find some dirt to camp on, as I do about once a month or more.. So, I decided to take off for the weekend of 2/10/17-2/12/17, and my friend Raul who runs Xpeditionoutfitters said he had some coordinates we could go try out. I posted up on Overlandbound to see if...

So I am thinking about moving my fridge to the bed of my truck to get it out of the cab. The plan was to out it in the back near the tailgate but I'd like it to slide out so that it will be even with the end of the tailgate when extended for easier access. To that end I've started looking at...

So I came across this last night on social media. Its a monthly subscription box of outdoor and camping gear. $25 a month nets you $35 to $60 worth of outdoor gear. I've been seriously thinking about trying it out for a month or two. Has anyone tried something like this? I figured it would...

Ok guys I tried to edit my original meet up post but I could not add a poll. I am going to put up a poll with possible date options for a meet and greet at bass pro shops in Rancho Cucamonga. The dates on the poll will all be on Saturdays because I have to work Sunday. Please pick a date that...

So I got a wild hair and decided to mount some LED's I had sitting around to my Leitner rack with brackets I already had from Leitner designs. Their primary use will be camp lighting, I may eventually buy some yellow dust shields for them to turn them into dust lights for when I am in the...

Don't know if this is The right place to post but I thought I'd pass along a deal to the other members.. Smittybilt 20 foot 20,000 lb tow strap for 10 bucks.. Says 29.99 on this link but when you add to cart it drops the price...

This thread was born from a comment on the "show us your badges" thread for those of us that have badges. Someone commented on the scratch on my tailgate.. And I commented that he scratches on the picture are a feeble representation of the entire truck.. So.. Lets see your scratches. You'll...

Right now I am simply using Google maps on my cell phone but as we all know that's not really reliable for off road travel. That being said, I am buying myself the dual bluetooth gps locator and a ram tablet mount to mount my 7" android tablet in my truck, and I'll load an off road gps program...

Just a couple photos from last weekend. Met up with a couple buddies and went out to the south side of Joshua tree national park. Camped on some blm land away from everyone... Edit.. The title was supposed to be "blm land" but autocorrect struck again. Yes, my daughter is wearing a dress...

We have all been there, sitting at home, thinking of ways to improve our off road travel experience, and method of camping. I've been through many iterations of camp gear in my years of outdoor enjoyment. First was a truck bed tent by Napier sportz that lasted me a good 6 years until Gail...

I'm in the Inland empire of southern California and I am always willing to meet up with fellow overland enthusiasts.. Anyone feel like meeting up on weekend day soon?
