Hey everyone. I'm leaving Hartman Rocks in Gunnison tomorrow and thought I'd go up to see Crystal Mill for the weekend. Watched a few videos and OnX has it rated as a 5...
If anyone has been up there this season and have some insights on taking the trail up I'd love to know what to expect or...
Solved this issue. We bought new batteries and when we unmounted the old ones from the frame we noticed one of the battery terminal clamps had slid off so we were running on only one battery. Now it starts great with everything hooked up. The downside is it's a huge pain and 1-2 hour process to...
Thanks everyone for the insights.
One more question then below are my notes from testing.
Is it safe to let the van idle through the nights? I’m mostly curious if that causes any issues with overheating or things getting too hot and blowing any hoses etc.
As for my notes…
I did some...
Hey everyone, odd request.
We have an 07 e350 4x4 van build. We want to head to the mountains for a ski/snowboard trip.
In the cold it won’t start without the block heater plugged in for 2-3 hours+ (temp pending)
The two batteries on it are pretty old so we’re curious if doing two new...
Hello fellow overlanders,
We spent the summer working remotely full-time while Overlanding. Here is a highlight video of the trip.
We used Starlink, coffee shops, public libraries and occasional KOA's to stay online four our work and used weekends to explore, cycle, hike, kayak etc..
We'll...
Hey Everyone,
I'm on a four-month full-time remote working Overlanding trip. I'm entering the SF area to drop off my gf at SF international to head to Dublin for work which gives me Sunday-Thursday (28th-1st) to go full off-grid remote. I hoping to hit up a spot with great views and a trail to...
Hey everyone, I’m working out details for a trip to Canada’s Banff National Park this summer. Restrictions for Americans to visit Canada seem to be opening up. We qualify based on current restrictions but I am curious if anyone has been there recently or are in the process of planning their own...
Hey everyone! I wanted to follow up and share an edit I put together of our big road trip. (It's more of a trailer-style recap of the trip as I'm still working on the larger content edit.) But we did a little over 5000 miles in total in about 5 weeks. Nebraska, Colorado, Utah, Nevada...
Alright, thanks again for all your feedback and suggestions, everyone. We just finished a few revisions of the trip. We moved Yellowstone up to the first part of the trip and took out Moab for another trip which makes us go way out of the way but it works better with our time off schedule...
Thanks, everyone! I appreciate all the suggestions. We have a few hard deadlines to certain destinations along the way which keeps us moving and limits our time in each park. We will be back in the same southwest region for a trip in October into November that we can hit the others. We also have...
Hey friends!
My gf and I are working out details for a month-long trip. 7/14 to 8/18 and thought I'd run this through the group here on suggestions or potential offshoots.
We're taking the first two weeks off then will have to be working remote and driving evenings/weekends the second half...
One last follow up. Are the bed stiffeners a no brainer? I'm about to order some just to do it since I plan to have multiple rack setups. I just picked up a DiamondbackHD + Frontrunner rack already installed from a guy about 4 hours away this weekend so I at least have one rack setup ready. Was...
Thank you so much for the feedback and insight into what I'm trying to work through here. It's incredibly helpful and my concerns about the amount of weight on a stock suspension that far back even if I had a custom hitch carrier that was lifted higher. I'd feel more comfortable loading it in...
Super helpful! Thank you. I feel ya on the hitch mount. My company has moved to mostly remote so I was planning on doing some extended trips for a month at a time or so. Some days I'd be staying with friends in the mountains, others I'd camp. wouldn't ride the bike most days but it would be nice...
Thanks, Berkshires, I'm super wary of the versahall direction because of the weight of the 600 and any uneven ground clipping that thing.. I just bought the truck 10 days ago so I haven't modded anything yet and gathering potential build directions to work on over the winter. We don't have any...
Hey everyone, tried searching the forums with not much luck.. makes sense as it's an odd request...
Does anyone take a motorcycle with them? If so, how have you tackled your build to accommodate a bike with the tent and light off-road gear? (On motorcycle trips I don't plan on doing...
Hello new friends!
I just picked up a 2021 TRD Off-Road Tacoma last week. Thought I'd get started here.
I camp a lot already but nothing like this. Hyped to join this community.
My name is Bryan, I live and work in Omaha Nebraska as a Motion Designer, Animator, and Illustrator. I frequent...
