A name? Do you talk to her? Does she talk to you? Do you give her a firm but gentle squeeze on her rear quarter panel? Or, a full on two handed rear bumper grab? Do you respect her? Or just use her for your pleasure, then lock her up in the barn? Does she behave herself in public? Or is...

What you’re asking about doesn’t exist, to my knowledge. The entire north half of NJ is metro NY. In the south are the Pine Barrens. That’s it. Everything else is private property. Check out the Appalachian Byway. It is a network of overland roads, gravel roads and trails stretching from the...

Agreed, rinsing fishing gear, dogs and hulls is a positive. The advertisement shows a guy washing mud from his jeep. LOL At a retail price of 500 I’m hoping that the spray wand is either stainless steel or brass. I too am a DIYer and I did pay maybe 400 for a pair of tanks over 10 years ago...

Gettin it here! I’ve a medium priced viar pump, takes about 20- minutes to air up from 20-36lbs. I say about, cause I’ve never timed it. What’s the hurry?

No experience but it seems really gimicky. Does anyone really concern themselves with washing their vehicle while out & about?

Guilty as charged: I was gifted the ARB air down deflator tool with a subscription to OJ. It took a couple of trips for me to become comfortable using it. The ARB is quick and very accurate. Would I have paid 50 bucks for one? Probably not, I’m a cheapskate and would still be using the Stauns...

Wow, a lot has changed with our trailer over the past several years. Upgraded springs & shackles, a complete 2x underframe upgrade, including a new tongue and upper framing to accommodate a rack and an RTT, dumped the yeti for an ARB mounted in the tow vehicle and am now runnning with 285s to...

Several years ago, my wife & I were out in the southwest for about 7 weeks. I was newly retired and we had no timeline. Temps were dipping into the low to mid teens nearly every night. We bounced around quite a bit, starting at Big Bend, GILA NF, then Canyonlands, down into what is now bears...

The boniest headiest thing I did? Plenty of really stupid stuff back in the 70s & 80s. But the biggest? I’m sure I’ll draw lots of ire for this one—- I spent about 9 years and thousands of dollars attempting to make our 04 Rubicon into a long range overlanding land cruiser. I was asking it...

They are quite expensive but Long Range America may be able to guide you in the right direction as far as purchasing an auxillary tank. We bought one for our 80 series last summer. If I were starting all over again it would have been one of our first modifications instead of the last.

I’ll admit, after doing this for 25 years of going out six weeks at a time, notching half dozen thousand miles or so and living in our equipment, it’s usually time to head home. This summer we are planning 8 weeks out, for what may be our final hurrah. We’ve been eyeing a small airstream for...

My vote & dream machine would be a 79 series LC with a small camper type thing on the tray. Light, easy to deploy. My 80 is good right now though, so maybe in my next life.

I’ve several, seriously, several. But off the top of my head? Our ARB 64qt fridge freezer and our Engle 15 qt fridge freezer. The Engle is used as a freezer and is coming up on 11 years old. The ARB is right behind that at 7 years. Both operate flawlessly and use very little power.

Wow, 24 years old and having the self awareness to ask these types of questions! Young folks like you fill me with optimism for the future. When I was 20 I left the farm with 50 bucks in my pocket. At 21 I was living in SoCal working at Northrop and on weekends exploring the San Gabriel Mnts...

Ya, you guys were always polite and very cool, no anger issues at all and always willing to engage in a personable way to help solve a problem. US border guys- not so much, at all. This happened at the old Thousand Isle crossing, Jeeze, pre 9-11.

Yes, & as far as quarantining, I’ve witnessed dogs being separated from their families and being quarantined getting back into the US. Mothers angry, kids dumbstruck, fathers being sheepish, not knowing what to do. Some one said quarentining happens in New Zealand or OZ, here too if the...

In the EU it may not be difficult and it certainly is not difficult getting in and out of Canada here in the US, provided all of your paperwork, ie- health certificates, etc etc are in “perfect” order. Decades ago I transported show livestock and race horses in and out of Canada. If a T is not...

We will get another dog when we are done traveling. It’s just too much hassle getting dog sitters or getting any animal across international borders. Hiking the Scottish highlands, touring Ireland, Viking Cruise through Germany, Alaska, Africa, Australia, Baja? Overlanding here in the 48...

Early spring and middle fall is what we enjoy the most. Temps are perfect and with it freezing at night their are no mosquitoes. We sometimes camp/travel in the Summer but it is just too hot & sticky. This year will be very different for us. After a couple weeks in April beach camping we’ll...

I have 2 panels for I believe 210or 225 watts, I don’t remember. I’m running a fridge and a freezer, along with charging batteries, running water pumps, etc. I’ve got two batteries with 140ah, or so. On a clean clear day in perfect conditions a 100 watt panel is perfect to charge up that...
