    Tents or car camping

    Used to love sleeping in a tent when I was younger. Now I am older and more refined, (and refuse to spend $300K on a motor home) I prefer sleeping in the back of the truck. My boy will be putting his tent on the roof rack. We tested it out; he loves it and both of us are off the ground. Just...

    Father/Son Tat Trip- 2016 T4R Trail Premium

    Next up is to figure how I am going to mount my front plate. In the great state of NY, not having the front plate attached is all the man needs to pull you over and write you a ticket to help justify his salary. Looking forward to next week to finally get the suspension done and eliminate the...

    Father/Son Tat Trip- 2016 T4R Trail Premium

    So here are some pics with the new C4 Fab loPro hidden winch bumper finally on. I am very happy with the construction of this bumper. I have no affiliation with the company, nor do I get any discounts, but would just like to pass along my thoughts on the product I received. The welds were very...

    Father/Son Tat Trip- 2016 T4R Trail Premium

    Good news/bad news. Good news is that we got the T4R back today with the new C4 fab bumper and winch installed. I really like the look and the apparent functionality. I have to do some wiring tomorrow. The bad news is i got beat over the head for the install. I originally was going to install...

    Father/Son Tat Trip- 2016 T4R Trail Premium

    I guess we all have been through this with our builds, but I am incredibly frustrated! Need a little advice, reassurance and an overall pep talk. Brought the T4R to a body shop (reputable) to have the @C4Fabrication lo pro winch bumper installed as I have a very little amount of time to do it...

    Recording your Trip

    In preparation for an upcoming trip my son and I will be doing, I bought the Hero 5 Go Pro. Plan to do a lot of documenting with this. I also have a DJI Phantom 3 Pro which I plan to take for some aerial memories. I'm also a firm believer in keeping a trip specific journal and update it nightly...

    What pans do you guys use??

    12" cast iron as the main go to and also a stackable camp cookware set to make the sides for dinners. Doesn't take up much space at all.

    Single burner or two burner on the trail?

    2 burner Coleman. I get up very early and like to put a pot of coffee on. Then we can keep it warm and cook breakfast at the same time.

    Diy limb lifters

    I like it. Been thinking of doing something like this. Only problem is I don't have a full bumper. Ugh. Nice job.

    Father/Son Tat Trip- 2016 T4R Trail Premium

    Rig is in the body shop getting the C4 fab bumper and winch installed. Really hope the winch fits; the only thing I'm stressing. Confirmed the suspension will be done June 12th. Lamin-X fog lights and grill markers I will do this weekend. That was a little Yoda like. Pics to come.

    Legal Weapons and Overlanding

    Always carry when legal to do so. Downloaded the "legal heat" app and it really makes it quite easy to determine reciprocity, local laws etc. The only thing I am a little nervous about is that on an upcoming trip we will be doing, we will be spending quite a bit of time on federal (National...

    Legal Weapons and Overlanding

    Thank you. I certainly didn't join this community to read through a pissing contest. Really good thread here; hope it can stay on. Have a good day.

    2016 T4R Trail

    Really enjoyed going through the build. Looks great. If I may, where did you get that roof net? As we test for space for our upcoming trip, we are realizing we are quickly challenged for space. This would be a very helpful solution. Thanks.
