    Best Family Capable Rig?

    That has to be bot intense and awesome.

    Best Family Capable Rig?

    Well said, I couldn't agree more. We used to take my inlaws Minivan because it had a hitch. No ground clearance, what so ever, but I digress.

    Yessir, down in Readsboro. I live in CT, but do most of my "work" up there.

    Columbia Bugaboot Titanium XTM Review

    Because I usually find myself starting at a lower and warmer elevation and ending up in some sort of frozen tundra by the end of the day, I don't mind wearing them in both. I wouldn't recommend them in the summer - but spring and fall they won't be too too hot.

    Best Family Capable Rig?

    Dogs add a whole other level of complexity - but if they're into it - it's well worth it. We had to stop taking our big guy out with us a couple of years ago - as he was just too old and wasn't enjoying the ride anymore. But I took our new puppy out for a quick off-roading adventure this weekend...

    Air down...or else

    But if you air down too much you can roll it, blow your bead and then things get weird. Again, I'm not against it - I've just never had to do it. It's a preference, not a necessity.

    When Your Daily Driver is Your Overland Rig

    What you've done is touched a heart-string in a lot of us! This is our life!

    When Your Daily Driver is Your Overland Rig

    Corrie, if you could please re-title this awesome article to "So, your Overland Rig is Your Daily Driver?". Hahahah. I'm kidding. This was another great one.

    I haven't had issues in the past, but this obviously makes sense.

    Columbia Bugaboot Titanium XTM Review

    They've been able to shave the weight down as well - which is a plus when you're humping through deep snow.

    What was your first vehicle you took exploring.

    How do you like that Renegade? I had a chance to work on the accessory program for it and fell in love with the little bugger the minute I saw it!

    Here's my 1992 Toyota SR5. She was a beauty. Sh$#ty cupoholders... But otherwise... Mmmmm...

    Air down...or else

    In 20 years I've just never needed to. It's also not the greatest thing for the sidewall of your tire. I'm not against it - and have ridden with guys who do it - I just never saw the need. It's going to be bouncy out there. Hahaha

    Columbia Bugaboot Titanium XTM Review

    The Ice Dragon's were a 6" boot, and had a taller - older brother - but I can't remember it's name. We sold tons of them at the camping store I worked in at the time. They rotted out after 10 years. I have these now...

    HH, Hennessy Hammock 4 Season Insulation System ~ Review

    My wife bought me the ENO set up, but the pad was sent to me to try out. It's one of the benefits of being a freelance writer; as I don't get paid much. Haha. It looks like the fly zips into the hammock here - which could make entry and exit easy. The fly on the ENO rig goes around the whole...

    Hahaha, okay - how do you know? Sidenote: I used to have it mounted horizontal on my roof and it did exceedingly well once tuned. I swapped out racks and that's no longer an option.

    Tembo Tusk or conventional stove?

    JetBoil came out with a can cracker a few years back so you could recycle small cans from them, Primus, MSR, Snowpeak, etc. But I think the issue with the bigger 1 pounders is that they have thicker walls and it would be a nightmare to try and use a can cracker on them (if even possible). So in...

    Tembo Tusk or conventional stove?

    Technically, and I don't like doing this, you can put those Coleman canisters in the trash - but........

    2005 T4R SR5. Originally bought it for a quick solution and it here we are 2 1/2 years later in the middle of a wonderful love affair. Latest updates have been in the Rhino set up on the roof - and I'm trying to find a way to mount my CB antenna off the rear bumper or in the region - so far it's...
