Aren’t skid plates meant to slide over objects and not support? I know that the some of the Ford Raptor guys are fond of RCI. Aside from that, aren’t they formed/shaped plates which gives them structural rigidity? Most OEM plates, if I recall correctly, are of even thinner material.

This will be a build to keep an eye on! Are you keeping the same color scheme or going with something different? I hope to be able to find a rig like this some day!
I think that it depends on your market. Some days have been good for me, others not so much. Truck gets anywhere between 13-16 MPG. I go through about $25/day in gas and run anywhere between 100-200 miles. It's extra money. My market isn't big enough to make it a good wage; it would be a...

My wife drives an '08 Mercury Mariner. It's a pretty capable rig all on its own, but I'd take it about all the same places my F150 would go.

I'll throw mine in... @akmedic77
I don't have many overland (if at all) pictures, but plenty of others, haha!
I might already be following some from other forums, as I've seen a few familiar user names.
