Still have the GX, but went big for family travel. F350 CCLB with a Coachmen Ranger 115SL. Comfort!
My air-conditioning sucks. I have an off-road Porsche 957 2009 with center locks. Tried everything. Thoughts on how to solve this other than a new vehicle? Need to be in 110 degree heat.
Got an IDEA. I hate tire road noise. I bought used street tires on rims that fit. I removed old rims and put new mud tires on them. Now my original 17 inch rims have new deep tread M/S tires on them. I plan to carry them on my trailer and when I arrive at the trail, switch them out. Thoughts?
Planning an overland circumnavigate trip of California for my son’s high school graduation.
T-19 days and a wake up! GA Traverse (w-e route) then jumping onto the SCAT#3. Ending with a jump in the Atlantic!
