what kind of camping is available around that area? I know that there is a lot of open space, but I'm not sure what camping is allowed, especially tied to the event. I'm thinking that would be a fun long weekend, but I normally stay away from huge events where I'm waiting in line to take my...

Whooo! Those bore-lock chucks are pricey! That said, i want need them and added them to my shopping list. Thanks for the write-up, my system needs a bit of a refresh and this is just the motivation I needed! I have a chuck on the front and rear bumper, and have two hose assemblies but a very...

. . . . This has potential! *gets out PENCIL* Dan.

Nice looking truck! Welcome to the addiction... Dan.

January is chilly, but probably not too crowded. Be aware of the recent rains and the likelihood that Soda Dry Lake will not be dry! That mud is not forgiving at all, but there's a good drive-around if it's impassible. You probably know all this stuff because you've been, but it bares...

I didn't get a sense that the author of the article is "anti vehicle camping", sounds like he does it himself. He just hates the idea of RTT's as a symbol of what overlanding is going to become, what he calls excess. And by the way, how long does a "thing" like overlanding have to be around...

@Barclay can you confirm the address of 1/12/19 meetup? I'd like to make it by, seems do-able this time! Also, a note of netiquette for those planning trips or want to have other conversations, please create a new thread for those trips rather than hijack an existing thread with your details...

Decide the number that you want to accommodate, and set the limit. It doesn't sound like you know that number? I would be pretty firm on a number, and once you've reached that, close it out and put it out that if someone wants to organize a run leaving the next day, the next week, or coming the...

Looking good, one of my favorite years of the Tacoma! Well worth the sweat and $$ you'll put into it. Dan.

Nice, 15,000+ and going strong. Welcome aboard. Dan.

Nice looking trailer. I've found that I still carry my fridge in the car because after I set up basecamp, and I go on a trail run, I like to have my lunch fixins' with me in the fridge. I have modified my set up a couple of times based on how I use it and what I use from it, you have a flexible...

Not to try and sell you on any product, and I have no affiliation other than being a very satisfied customer, but Justin @Anchor Mtn builds a very nice trailer, and he has a newer version that is very similar to the Smittybilt trailer, but is a little more customizeable. And I think a better...

Just want to make sure if anyone's interested, they have a source.

So, you didn't mention what part of California you want to visit? Big difference north to south. Many suggestions here so far look like Northern California, but there's a lot to see down south here as well as working your way North, say Hwy 395... And, I can add that Desert Season is just...

Not a whole lot changes on the road except for the Soda Dry Lake. For that, at least check in with the rangers at the Kelso Depot or call them ahead of time. Most of the time they don't know the most current conditions, but that's where they seem to collect any traveler information. The water...

Hi Mike, If you end up with <7? or more than 7?> (I can't remember which) in order to be 'official', you do need a permit that at the time of the 2017 trip cost $69, but you only need one. You should start the process at least 60 days in advance because the wheels turn slowly in those offices...

Welcome to the forum! There's a few meetups typically planned, take a look at the Rally Point and come and shake some hands. I'd love to see that '94 80. Dan.

That's pretty cool, dig the utilitarian / military feel of it. Do you have contact information so people can find out more? Dan.

Happy to have another SoCal'er around. Hope you can make it to some of the meetups, not sure if the one out in your area is active anymore. Dan.

Sale of the property closed on Friday, July 13th. $1.4M! If only... Found this on the sale of the property and the new owner: Brent Underwood (why does that name sound familiar?) Looks like it has it's own website but that might be from the previous owners. There is a contact phone # listed...
