We're in the process of putting together a state-of-the-art system to do the same as what you need. It's an under-the-hood dual battery, a dc-dc charger with built in solar controller, and circuit breakers to protect everything. In the rear cargo area there'll be a panel with 12v and high output...

It sounds like you're well on your way with a capable sounding rig!

My suggestion; hold off throwing a ton of money at a RTT. There's more important things to considered. Overlanding is "vehicle based travel". Is your FJ up to the challenge of going "off road" or on unmaintained roads? If you can't get in and back out all the fancy camping gear in the world...

We're happy you enjoyed it! Hope it helps you with your own kit!

Good luck with your decision. Choosing tires is one of the most difficult we face. Sadly we have very little to contribute to your quest. We run Cooper STT pros on our FJ which are definitely not suitable for your needs. On our 4Runner we've been using Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Although they do...

Fantastic post! A huge THANK YOU for all the work you put in it.

We just use a couple roll-ups that came with combination wrench sets. These, along with a bunch of other tools, we stuff into an old mortar can. The pros; everything is in a more convenient hard side case and there's no rattling around. The cons; everything is in a hard sided case. :) Here's a...

We're putting together a casual gathering at a local offroad park next Saturday (24th) if you're interested. The park is smallish but a great place to play for a few hours. It'll be the same as this event we hosted a couple months ago...

Anybody up for another gathering on November 24th?

My dream is that Toyota would bring back the FJ Cruiser. Our '07 is getting tired.....

Looks like a fun time, We're sorry we missed it.

We're glad you enjoyed it!

You're very welcome, glad you liked it!

Thanks Steve! Yes, there are areas of the Black Hills that are crazy touristy, especially around Keystone, Deadwood, Mt Rushmore, and Custer State Park. But like most of our popular public lands, 95% of the visitors never go off pavement, 4 1/2% might get out on a gravel road or two. We like...

Hi Fellow Overlanders, We'd like to take a moment to share a video with you. A couple weeks ago we made an overland journey through a large portion of the public lands in Nebraska and South Dakota. In the video we talk about how we plan our trips and cope with "changes" in the plan...

Great article!

Yup, you need them. Check out replacements from Rad Rubber Designs.

Dispersed camping whenever possible. Campgrounds only when necessary. Never ever within hearing distance of anyone running a generator.

All great suggestions! Keep 'em coming!
