    Why does every winch bumper for new trucks look like optimus prime's helmet?

    Because a new bumper TRANSFORMS your truck into a badass overland rig!

    Luci Light Sale

    If anyone has been thinking about getting a Luci light they are running a 40% off sale at the moment. If you purchase the Baselight or Pro Series they can recharge via solar as well as USB and can be used to charge a phone (or other USB items). I think these are great lights and pretty much just...

    Utah trip report: White Rim trail and Porcupine Rim

    Fantastic trip and great photos. That is such an awesome part of the country and the shoulder months would be a wonderful trip for sure.

    Too good to leave at home....

    One YouTube channel you might find helpful is ManKitchenRecipes as he does a lot on the Blackstone griddle. Sorta moved into some of the pellet grills now but still has many videos up that will give you some good ideas. My Brother In Law has one of the larger Blackstones but I have never been...

    After the Campout

    Agreed, we open our valves (Thermorest) and just slide them under a bed.

    Very well thought out build and some nice gear to go along with it. Thanks for sharing.

    Your Go To Jack

    On the JKU with 35s I used the factory jack with the AEV jack stand which works great. Like all things an extra part might invite a problem if the ground is unstable but so far no issues.

    Your Go To Jack

    There is another similar jack (heck probably the exact same one with different stickers!) that I have seen called the Uni-Jack

    Is it still overlanding in a campground?

    How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop, the world may never know.

    New cooking pots and pans

    That looks like a very nice set of pans. I too use the Magma but these look like a great alternative for a bit less money.

    Old school canning

    I have never done baked beans in the canner, chili is probably the closest thing and it worked great unless you get some boil over and the lid won't seal, not sure if I got the head space wrong or just got too hot somehow. We always smoke cheese and give it to the family for Christmas with our...

    Some Dutch Oven Recipe Vids and Camp Dutch Oven Size Comparison.

    Weather is starting to get cooler now and I have had numerous folks tell me that they are thinking about, or just got, a dutch oven and looking to try some recipes. I tend to go a bit more old school on my videos as I am a believer that camp cooking should be (mostly) uncomplicated and allow for...

    Old school canning

    We have canned a lot over the years and the only thing I have not had great success with was dried beans. Looks like you have the same type of Presto pressure canner that we have and I would recommend the Ball canning books for recipes as they seem very well written. I have a fishing trip booked...

    Help needed in SD area

    I think they both have Instagram accounts and you can message them on that platform I believe. Whether they monitor or respond I have no idea.

    Refilling 1lb tanks, who does it?

    I expect that no one would ever know unless you are the person who has one fail. How likely a failure is I have no idea but expect it to be pretty rare. I think the real issue is that the standard green bottles are not designed to be refilled so the engineering of the bottles doesn't support...

    rig weight, how do you pack?

    I try to stay very close to recommendations which absolutely limits my gear choices (that and the extra, useless weight carried in the driver's seat!). I think it is clear that a vehicle CAN be driven when very overloaded (I can attest to that) but I find that there is an impact on steering...

    New Tires

    No experience with ST Max. But run STT PRO on the JKU and AT3 on the Raptor. I have been very satisfied with them. Both are 315/70/17. The E rated on the Raptor ride a little harder in back and did cost a bit in mileage vs. C rated oem.
