I actually just did this.
My old 02 Xterra snapped a timing belt in August of '22, got lucky that it didnt take the engine out with it and I put a new water pump and belt on. However I knew I was on borrowed time. I looked at the Taco for a bit, and ultimately settled against it. Mainly because...
Well sold off the Xterra in December for a 23 JL Rubicon. Added an under seat air system shortly after I got it and this weekend finally started the slow process of setting it up for some camping. Spent a ton of time trying to find some diy builds for a goose gear type system for the 2 doors and...
Got mad at it, and well it was yesterday too. Head gasket blew on the Xterra and I still have about a month before the Jeep shows up. Good thing my wife works from home. Now to call some scrap yards I guess.
Not even a little. If anything I'm a little more cautious with my 250,000mi '02 Xterra than I will be with the '23 JL Rubicon we just ordered. After being a mechanic for years I just don't want to do my own wrenching anymore if I can avoid it. On top of that the Xterra is starting to show some...
Yea those backpacking quilts look like the way to go for that mix of blanket and sleeping bag and warmth. Going to add them to our list of options.
This is the mattress we use if it helps.
That thing is super cool, gonna shoot her the video of it on there and see what she thinks.
Yea she gets super claustrophobic with things as small as a super heavy blanket or the dog trapping her feet so not sure if even a large bag like that would work but Ill share it with her.
Oh yea shes treated me well over the last like 8 years Ive had her. Only done routine maintenance other than the things that were my fault; like the busted heater core lines from broken motor mounts and hitting an obstacle a little too hard lol, or the timing belt above. If it weren't for...
I shot the wife links to both and she sent a rumpl she liked back immediately HA so looks like 2 of them are likely in our future in either their company special infill or the down. Thanks for the link.
The Xterra leaks oil like crazy from the front and back, the lifters are hating life, and...
She doesnt mind going down into the 40s so long as we can stay warm. I'll look into both of those and shoot her links to see what she thinks. I already know that the color shcemes on the rumpl brand will be right up her alley lol.
And nothing better than round headlights lol. Gonna be sad to...
My wife is not a real big fan of sleeping bags so I'm on the hunt for options for warm bedding that packs down nicely. Our current setup is an REI Half Dome 2 Plus, a 78"x55"x4" sleeping pad and then just regular bedding we set aside for camping. Works well down to the 40s but takes up A LOT of...
This has been talked about for a few months now, and will be coming to both Apple and Android. Starlink is offering its satellites for this for sure, and maybe others. It'll be an emergency only kind of service that will get a message or short bad cell call out. But anything that helps is good.
I feel you man, I can't back up a trailer to save my life. Like so much so that while they are super cool there is no way I would ever own an off road trailer.
