Good day all,
Well the Christmas season is quickly coming to a close and New years day is on our doorstep.
After all that other than dieting what is everyone doing?

Not personally I don't want to know your business I was thinking about your overland dreams/trip planning and the rigs you drive

Trip Plans for 2020?
Upgrade or changes to your Overland Rigs?
Maybe just Hibernate until we see our shadow :blush:?

Personally I am still trying to figure our a suspension set up for my 14' Tacoma

and on a off note anyone intrested in a mid week meet up once a month somewhere?

thanks and have a great day.

For me, winter is when I focus on my other indoor hobbies. I like to build scale models, mostly trucks.
I am also on the hunt for a new(Used) Forester to use as a light Overlanding rig when I want to go farther than the gas mileage of the Suburban will let me go.
It will be a daily driver and mild off roader.
Other than that just dreaming and planning trips for when the weather gets good again.

Trying to make the best of some downtime to:
- Sort through all my shit, figure out what I want to sell (OZ Tent RV5 and a mess of other stuff that will be added to as I sort) and gear up for the next multi-month South of I-10 adventure from Maine to the Gulf of Mexico and then across Texas to the Borderlands and beyond.
- Shape up roaddude.com a bit with more content and make it easier to add gear reviews, images, and print sales, etc.
- Make some minor changes to the interior of my van for more optimized sidewall storage while leaving the main cargo area capable of hauling sheet goods and large items if need be.
- Fab up some better organizational aids for the trailer, especially for the space over the wheel wells in the cargo area.

We’re still traveling! We’re from Oklahoma and the weather has been warm this year. We’re headed to the Ozark Mountains and the weather is supposed to be 60 during the day and 40 at night.

Just catching up on basic maintenance, saving up for new tires and getting the WJ ready for the spring. Winter is beating up on my fenders so those will be one of the first things to get done.

Need to install the rock-sliders that have been sitting in my shop for 3 months. Also, shop for a good deal on skid plates.

Planning a few camping trips this upcoming year (Northern Ontario) , and I finally decided to build a trailer to haul my gear rather then it be in the Jeep. I post photos on my IG account @thatwhitejk and I’ve been uploading some content to YouTube.
