    Best overland vehicle with 7 seats

    Awsome rig!!! However around here all the diesel excursions have 300k+ and are priced at 20-30K. I cant justify that on a ford. I can buy a low mileage imported diesel 80 series for less.

    Best overland vehicle with 7 seats

    Good to know, I have been interested in the commander for a while, and almost got one for the wife, but she went with an infiniti QX56 instead. But for when Im looking again I know that the commander is off my radar. Thanks for the good feedback

    Any families in the Oakland, CA area with little kids?

    What, half way across the country to far for an overlander for a play date? Sounds more like challenge accepted! LOL sorry just kidding.

    Any families in the Oakland, CA area with little kids?

    3, 6, and 9 for my little ladies, I can get them in the back yard, and at camp grounds, but moms not keen on being to far from flushing potties... yet... Yet any time spent with our children as a family is great time, its even better however out doors and away from electronics.

    Taking your kids on trips

    The key I feel to this part is making sure that the temperament and atmosphere is right when you do it. If she is in a bad mood or is scared then she may associate that with off-roading from then on, but if her first experience is you laughing and being excited(almost overboard with it) then...

    Taking your kids on trips

    I have 3 girls 3, 6, and 9. First I can attest to 1 kiddo is a cake walk compared to 3, and if you have 2 then 3 isn't that much more of a step up. Conditioning them to being in the car is important. If all they know is quick runs to the store then they won't fare well on a road trip. Bring...

    Mobile Camping Pod design

    That's pretty awesome, but unfortunately priced me out of any intrest. I'm a bottom budget wheeler, $14,875 is more than I have in my last 2 rigs combined. But then I would not be your target market. Not trying to knock you as its a very nice design and looks very versatile. Good luck with...

    Welcome aboard! I use to be down in the Houston area, but I am happily back in Oklahoma now... I also happen to be a husband and father of 3 beautiful little girls. Lots of great info and resources here. I assume you might be using your XJ for family overlanding, as the TJ is cramped in the...

    Best overland vehicle with 7 seats

    Toyota for me. If your on a budget then finding a first gen sequoia 4X4 with around 200K for under 3500 is easy to do. Just make sure the belt has been done or budget for it pretty soon. not a ton of upgrades for it, but there are some folks out there making bumpers and sliders for it. Its...

    R.I.P. Beloved vehicles that are now gone (wrecked,traded in,sold,or lost in divorce)

    Well horses arse it sounds like we may have just had a dud, sucks, because I REALLY wanted to like it. And they are few and far between. Especially hard to find one at a reasonable price anymore.
