    Here is a link to just what you are looking for in the store: https://store.overlandbound.com/products/forum-member-card-we-like-your-rig?variant=35458369422 Oddly enough, you can't actually find them in the store itself. I found this link in a previous discussion. @Michael @Corrie ?? Also...

    taking the plunge

    Cool! Welcome to the Hiker family. Wish I’d done the 5X9, but couldn’t justify the cost bump for our first trailer, in case Deb didn’t like the experience. The Highway model is only suited for very mild dirt and gravel roads. Be sure you know that going in.

    What's in your camera bag?

    My traveling bag is a LowePro OffRoad waist pack that I got about 30 years ago. I usually have the side bags off, as my oft used lenses don't fit. Nikon D750 body Nikon F4 Body with MB-20 and MB-21 motor drives for when I want to use film. Nikkor AF-S 24-120mm f/4G ED VR (Usually on the...

    New Project

    I wondered why you were selling when you were going to buy a square drop anyway. This will be fun to watch. This is the route I originally considered going, but couldn't find any short height enclosed trailers like the U-haul models. I wanted it short so we could put the kayaks on top with ease...

    Steve’s 2016 Toyota 4Runner Modification and Adventure Thread

    It seems to work just fine. I added the 6dB gain antenna for better reception, which helped a lot. Not many folks around with their GMRS yet, so I haven't used it much other than listening. Lots of little kids on FRS is mostly what I hear... My buddy had the 400, and just replaced it with the...

    People with stomach problems, how do you cope on long trips?

    Pepto Bismol, Imodium AD, a folding toilet, and a quick setup shower tent. I'm okay normally, but on weeks long trips, with a drastically different schedule and diet, there've been times when the next gas station can't come soon enough!

    Quick-Pitch En-Suite shower - soft bag or alu case?

    Odd, I too got mine from Backwoods Overland, and ordered on 11/6. Nick has been really good at responding to emails throughout the wait for product to arrive from South Africa. If he’s following first in first out with orders, yours should arrive soon. I did not get a shipping notice, but the...

    Quick-Pitch En-Suite shower - soft bag or alu case?

    Mine just arrived on Wednesday, so I have no practical experience with it yet. I opted for the aluminum box version, and wow is it a quality piece of hardware! There’s a nice dust seal around the opening and a heavy paint/powder coat finish. I have the ARB awning with the bag, and it gets...

    P38

    P38 Walther P38 Mauser P38 rock climb in The Gunks P38 protein P38 Spirit yacht And to help confuse, P38 and P51 were both can openers and WWII aircraft. (Bonus fact: The last active squadron of Lightnings were at Keesler AFB in Mississippi when I was a toddler.)

    It has been so tempting to move this discussion to the cooking/kitchen forum. [emoji12]

    Steve’s 2016 Toyota 4Runner Modification and Adventure Thread

    A Quick Pitch en-Suite Camp Shower showed up at the door today. What a very nice chunk of hardware! Way too expensive for simply a place to hose off or poop privately, but I'me very glad to add it to the truck. I won't mount it until spring, so off to the garage it goes for now...

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Will do. I got the Deluxe Combo value kit and Trangia alcohol burner, and then added on the 40 oz Kleen Kanteen and two Olicamp cups to fit in the boil plate. I made a quick mug of tea on the alcohol burner yesterday, but haven't started a wood fire yet.

    I've added a few things over the past couple of months, both for the truck and for the trailer or day trips. NOCO GB40 Jump Starter Kelty Noah's Tarp 9X9 (I already have the 16X16 for over the trailer. This is for over the truck lift gate or a standalone tarp tent.) A beautiful Council Tool...

    Not all badge holding members are on the forum, and not all have their number filled in in their profile. Lots of the early members came from YouTube and Facebook before the forum was started.

    Roof rack storage ideas...let's see them!

    Prinsu rack’s own design. They should be available on their web site. They are specific to fit Prinsu racks, so not a universal fit.

    How do you wash your vehicle?

    Mine was clean when I bought it 30 months ago. (I never washed my '88 Ranger 4X4 in the 11 year I had it, nor the F150 after the first couple months. WRX got washed the first year or two of the 14 years I had it, too.) That's what rain is for! :)

    Sleep in Vs. Sleep on trailers??

    Thanks, we really like it. The Hiker Road models start under $5000, but not for harder use than occasional forest road. The Mid-Range is %8k and up, I think, and the Off-Road Extreme, more than that. Depends on your wants and needs. Yep, we had the National Luna 90 Twin in the 4Runner before...
