    In search of: The Best Ground Tents

    Picked up an army surplus vehicle crew tent. A little heavy at 90lbs with everything but sub freezing is no issue. Extremely well insulated and has a loft that will hold at least 2 or 3 FULL packs. Plenty room for 3 full grown men and a German shepherd with extra space in the middle. 2 doors 2...

    Opinions please

    Think of the rare washing experiences though. Foot on the tire and hand on the handle. No more slipping on a slick hood trying to clean the windshield. Heck somthing can always be functional even if it's just to make a job easier lol Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using OB Talk mobile app

    What boots do members wear

    5.11 high tops. Waterproof, light, and plenty of options for lighter duty. I've worn these things for the past year and they still have plenty of life. Side note, they've never given a blister even during break in. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using OB Talk mobile app

    Long travel vs solid axle swap.

    Considering I wouldn't mind getting into a little desert running the ifs seems to be the best way for me so far. Thanks for all of your input guys, it's nice having different opinions to weigh against what I've learned Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using OB Talk mobile app

    Long travel vs solid axle swap.

    Some of the kits do include longer HD cv axles and a few companies sell them aftermarket. I think I will probably end up with the LT setup as I like the wider stance and tend to have a heavy foot through rough patches. I think experience In the fab dept will also keep me in LT. Easier install...

    Long travel vs solid axle swap.

    Have a 2011 tacoma 4x4 and would like a little feedback from people that know more than I. I keep tearing up cv axles and ball joints almost every trip I take and I'm thinking about going heavier duty. I don't do too much rock crawling but hit alot of off camber spots and high water crossings...

    In search of: The Best Ground Tents

    I've got a coleman yarborough pass fast pitch I picked up for around 85 bucks at Academy. Seems more of a three season tent but we've been sleeping in snow the past week with very little issue. It holds heat pretty well and is definitely waterproof. Says it's rated for six people. I've got three...

    Survival excursions

    Not a bad idea. I've got one ready and another truck I could modify a bit to work. Worst case scenario a fleet would come later. And I use that term loosely. Maybe 4 or 5 total vehicles Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using OB Talk mobile app

    Survival excursions

    I think your right. I'm going to be bringing a decent camera with me next time I go out so I'll take video and see if I can splice somthing together giving a bit of a taste of what we do. The scenery would be more than enough to entice some people. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using OB Talk...

    Survival excursions

    So I've kind of been knocking around the idea of starting a small part time business for overland/survival minded people. What we do as over landers definitely overlaps into the survival aspect. I'd like a second opinion of how well yall think it would work. Say once or twice a month take say...
