Off the Grid 2016 - Info Thread!

My wife loves camping but she started getting tired of bouncing around in the passenger seat. Now she drives my rig. Since she started driving she has had a lot more fun. She even installed my long travel suspension. Im one lucky guy. She has her own instagram @life_of_a_TW_wife devoted to being a wife of a Tacoma world addict.

I love this. Awesome. Right now, Corrie is driving #0000 through the PNW, meeting up with OB members and having fun. The best.
 
Hey guys,
We have been talking in the Norcal convoy forum about possibly having a small flea market Friday afternoon. I just want to feel it out before we say yes or no. Really would need people to bring items they are willing to sell. Interested? Think its a good idea?

Also , we have been chatting about possibly putting on small DIY classes on Friday too. @Mademan925 volunteered to teach a hi lift jack and a solar panel class. I will need to verify with him about exactly what time on Friday and if he still wants to do it. Any one else interested in leading a class or joining? Emergency first aid 101? navigation? other ideas?

I'm a newbie and particularly interested in the hi-lift training.
 
I see that driver tickets are sold out. I'm finally getting my suspension done on the 2nd. Is there any way to squeeze in one more rig with 2 passengers? This would literally be our first Overlanding trip.
Edit: We'd be going with just our usual camping gear.....I have zero recovery gear yet.....in fact, sadly, I haven't even picked up a full size spare. I did order a repair kit and watched Michael's video! lol
