I agree. But ive been seeing more campers during winter than before.

My favorite time to camp is when its cool or cold. Anything above 68° and im not camping. Coldest ive camped in a tent was -14°f in Utah, that was pretty cold! Fingers and toes took an hour to warm up. What about you?

Luckily no. But I used to have a heart pump, and that's the reason I got my ecoflow battery. I was running off batteries for the pump, and needed a way to charge them in case. Wife was planning to get us starlink, so that we could call emergency if needed. I do bring a medkit and trauma kit...

True. I chose my wheels because of the weight, also watched a lot of reviews. I would of kept stock wheels (wish I did for winter tires), but they are too narrow for larger tires. Im running a 38x13.5x17 tire and needed wheels to accommodate the width. Looks was last on the list.

Furthest south ive been is Mexico, and that was just to party. So I cant help with that. My wife is from Peru, and her father had a Hilux for a long time, and there are massive open land to wheel and overland there. You can drive right up to many ancient wonders, no one and no infrastructure...

Jeep was at the dealer about 2 weeks for an EGR failure. Got it back! I reinstalled Banks pedal monster and Tazer mini. Borrowed my moms blue sahara, its only seen dirt once when I forced her to wheel with me, when I had my JK.

Yeah, for me, packing up is the worst part. Hate it. I drastically reduced what I bring to camp. Its even worse when the sun is beaming down ok you.

That's awesome! I wanted to start a channel as well, but got no one to help.

My camping started as an infant. My parents took us camping at early ages, before 1 year of age. I started camping on my own in my mid 20s, basic stuff out of a 89 toyota corolla.

My watch is something I always brings. Nice knowing the time in early mornings.

Mine is not built up fully yet, I'm not sure about the direction, but I think I'm going with a weekend type rig, since I do work full time and rarely able to get lengthy time off. So far, it's more fitted to be an offroader, so giant tires and excellent suspension. I do have a 120w solar panel...

Recently smoked the spam. Not from a pipe lol. Cut into the spam, but not all the way. Season with paprika, sugar, garlic/onion powder. Smoke at 225 for an hour or two (depends on how crispy you want). My wife asks for it all the time.

A bit far from me. If you're ever in the socal area, let me know. Tons of trails here.

Very cool build! Building my rig is one of the most joy I've felt in a long time. Most of my lights are morimoto, except head lights.
