Thanks for the clarity of your thoughts. I agree with part of your comment about SUWA and with people being there that shouldn’t be there. Therein lies the real problem, ie- bad actors giving conservation groups ammunition that get it all shut down. IMO that’s the problem in a nutshell. If...

Nah, your neighborhood will never make it into the International Archeological Site Catalog hall of fame. Peek-a-boo and the entire canyon is indeed such a place. No riff raff allowed back then, nor today.

I actually paid a shop to do an oil change; first time for everything.

Isn’t Badlands from Harbor Freight? Good Luck.

Are you able to adjust the placement, front to back? Mine used to rumble a bit, I slid it back less than an inch and the rumble went away. If not, a small airdamn bolted up top would be my starting point. An inch high may be just enough. As a last resort ( ) call Frontrunner up. I’ve...

Federal judge tosses Utah lawsuit seeking to shrink Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante monuments This is the first thing that came up. I get newsletters from SUWA and other agencies to keep abreast of what’s going on. We were some of the very last people to drive down the salt creek...

Can anyone explain to me the reasoning behind the Blue Ribbon Coalition joining in a lawsuit to keep those two monuments as they currently are? I’ve been to both on multiple trips & would hate to see gates go up because of mineral rights expanded in either place.

Kurt @ Cruiser Outfitters is one vendor I use for all things Toyota. They will not oversell nor yank your chain.

Before our shower set up it was sponge baths. Now we have a shower set up. Hot water navy showers are a huge improvement over wiping down with water & a rag. My wife used to be a clean freak as was I. No longer, just don’t bring dirt into the tent or the vehicle. Other than that, a little dirt...

Not an issue with our Tepui. We are on unlevel ground all the time and use local rocks or firewood to level up. Do you have the telescoping type ladder? If not, then getting one would be a much easier solution. If you have a telescoping ladder then just use as is, and angle it accordingly...

Off brand discount fridges just don’t get it. We are out right now with a friend that has a brand new, iceclo (?) dual zone. Hundreds of dollars of food lost because of malfunction. Dometic is not an off brand, but I’ve seen them and wonder aloud if they can withstand hundreds of miles of...

I’ve been using a Frontrunner rack for a bit over a decade. I added another to the trailer 3 years ago to mount the tent on. Zero regrets and zero rattles. Not a single fastener has ever worked its way loose after thousands upon thousands of miles on dirt, gravel, washboard and technical trails.

We were down on Kelly’s Point a couple years ago. Get a map of the region by calling the BLM office for the Arizona Strip. I believe the offices are in St George, Utah, they will send you a detailed topo map for 10 bucks or so. Driving range is a consideration as well. Kelly’s point is...

Wow, never said anyone was wrong for doing so, the only thing I responded to was the comment about criminals. That’s it. It’s an old argument and no longer relevant to the debate, because, unfortunely, law abiding citizens, usually young men, went over the edge. I carry, my friends carry...

Now that’s hilarious! Yes, I’m laughing at you. Instead of reading what I wrote & taking it into consideration, you attack what you believe to be my world view as being indoctrinated . Thinking outside of your box, does not make another indoctrinated. As usual this conversation comes to an...

Sir, my comments are well thought out and have been formed over the past 7 decades. If it offends you that I think as the rest of the civilized world thinks, especially my Canadian friends, then it may not be I that is the problem, but in fact, a part of the solution. I’ve friends that have...

That’s a given, you did not read my comment or you misinterpreted what I wrote- again, I tire of the straw man argument . Those that have committed mass murders were not previously criminals.

I’m just gonna toss this question out there. Why?, because I hear the “ criminal “ argument all the time. It is the go to bumper sticker saying. When was the last time a criminal committed a mass shooting? The answer is extraordinarily rarely, a negligible percentage that one could say with...

The most important three things, ( says the guy who is extraordinarily outfitted ) is a good, no, an excellent 3 season tent , really good sleeping bags, and a really good cot. Once you get that sorted out, everything else will fall into place as your wants/needs progress. We wasted a lot...

For us? Dual batteries all the way for our overland truck/cruiser. The vehicle is our power plant, solar panel on top, dual batteries under hood with 175 amp hours. We don’t have to think about it. The entire system charges up all by itself with nary a thought. All the wiring runs through...
