    What are the absolute best mud tires?

    This is an impossible question, mostly opinion based. Some good discussion here though.

    Roof top storage boxes

    100 lbs on 4000 doesn't make much difference. Some vehicles are very limited on interior space.

    Questions about dispersed camping

    I grew up going on weekend trips through the Sierras, stopping when we felt like it, where it made sense. Even today I only need enough room to park and sleep if I'm passing through. There are a number of apps and websites devoted to free camping spots, many are regional so it helps to look...

    What Rig Check do you perform?

    I check that my cargo is securely fastened, when I start the trip and the start/ end of a trail. sometimes things shift or an edge is sharper than you thought it was, branch lower than you thought etc. I'm a strong believer in Murphy's law, so I do what I can to avoid it.

    Need Feedback - New Regional Overland Bound Patches

    I like Midwest 12. leaving the member number off would save a lot of money and headaches. I've played that game, and don't envy anyone going into it.

    Where did you install your OB emblem?

    On the tail gate, where I think it will get seen the most.

    Maglite vs Sure +LED vs Harbor frieght

    I recently purchased a LED upgrade bulb for my Sure P6 when the original busted. I was very impressed initially, but though some comparison would put things into perspective. So I grabbed two of the many lights I have. The maglite (3 cell w/ fresh batteries) is the staple that everyone knows so...

    DIY: Cooler

    But not all foam is equal in density and insulation rating.

    Stand Alone Battery

    I've used my XP-1 (yes 1, not 10) to jump start a 6.9L 402. It cranked like mad!

    Info request from the CA folks.

    Mendocino national forest is amazing. No shortage of rds and great views all over the place. I simply wandered through so sadly I have no routes to share.

    DIY: Cooler

    I would think expanding foam through a drilled hole up top would be your best option to fill the sides, but as ASNOBODY mentioned, not sure if the insulation will be as good as commercial coolers. The insulation will give you a R rating, but I cant recall coolers being labeled similarly for...

    Thoughts on bivy sacks?

    the competition against the Swag is a malamoo by OZtent. one of the wire-framed pop-ups. If you want quick and easy, with minimal requirements they look good.

    Extending plug and play wires

    Just match the gauge and add however much length you need by splicing in near the lights. No need to mess with the connections if all you need is more length. Use heat shrink connectors or wrap for weather protection.

    Thoughts on bivy sacks?

    I like bivy's for what they are, minimal weather protection. And got more than familiar with them while in uniform. Great for hiking or motorcycling, but they give you almost no room for keeping anything with you. I'm also looking at the Swag tent for solo trips. I'm hoping that by pulling the...
