This is intended as a discussion. You know? Where two or more people come together to discuss their views in a polite and respectful way? In none of the threads mentioned above was there a "flamewar". It was simply two or more people having a difference of opinion. No bashing, no bullyingi, no...

This is a real sore spot for me. I randomly looked at a few recent threads in different forums and as I went to reply, found they had been locked. Don't we have enough issues with social media not allowing the freedom of expression, whether you agree with what is being said or not? We are all...

Thanks for this. Def something to look into next time up.

I lived in Phoenix in the mid 2000's and experienced them there. They roll out from the east across the valley west. Awesome to watch them pick up dirt, roll upwards, then you get massive friction behind it which fuels lightning, big wind, moisture and wicked thunderstorms. Yesterday was just...

I haven't found that to be true. Santa Fe maybe where the PoPo have nothing to do... We go monthly and have had no issues. And the reality is when you go to a gas station, restaurant, etc, in small to midsize towns, more often than not, no one is wearing a mask. That's been my experience from...

Adding spacers in the back only will give you a really poor ride when you aren't loaded up with lots of weight. If you are looking for a budget lift just to help you maintain ride height and control, I'd look into adding an improved sway bar in the rear. Probably don't need to upgrade your...

Not completely accurate... Total amount of weight in the vehicle dictates suspension ability to function. Squat is guaranteed if you add a RTT and gear, food, camping needs for multiple people.

Northern NM is not too dissimilar form Southern CO. Mountains, snow, road closures, etc. If you want a river, the Rio Grande runs from roughly Taos out to the Santa Fe region. Taos is around 7200' elevation. Temp there this morning was 8°F. Unless you are prepared for winter cold camping, I'd...

Welcome to West Texas. A roughly 10-12k' haboob was kicked up this morning in Lubbock. Winds have been 25-25mph with 60+mph gusts. Haven't had one here in a few years. This is the backside of it as it heads E/SE.

Nice work

Pour a beer in a pint glass, place on spare tire. Level as needed. Drink.

Its an unnecessary amount of fuel, weight and size to want to "mount" on a Jeep, unless you are going into the deep for 6 months at a time. If it was an RV, sure, but being a mid size SUV, youre at a premium for mounting space.

More to the point... if you are crossing, the inspection issue is moot besides the big issues like lighting, registration, general condition of the vehicle, etc. I've crossed from Bellingham, Wa to Derby Line, Vt. in my Jeep. Zero issues. Commercial vehicles are subject to greater scrutiny for...

Actually its not us who are the closest to you. We are in West Texas about 7 hours from Austin. @Kent R

As a guy who lived in Seattle for 22 years, HS, UW, etc... and have since lived in Phoenix, Charlottesville, Long Island, Buffalo and now Lubbock, Tx, I can tell you I have a love hate relationship here. The good: Terrific conservative family oriented community. Baptist, Methodist, Catholic...

This is kind of what I am getting at. In all honesty, how many people have ACTUALLY used their kit for something other than a Band-Aid, tweezers or trauma sheers to open a challenging plastic bag for dinner? Now I am not dismissing be prepared. But at times, being overprepared is of far...

I wound up going slightly overkill with an 89L, but wearing XXXL clothes and size 14 shoes, it will work for both winter and summer trips. Saw the Wolfman and liked the side access. This is from the BDR folks in Seattle and Touratech USA MC gear...

Pull it off and ahve it powdercoated or Rhinolined? Way cheaper and you can pick the color.

MOLLE on the inside of the tailgate. Speaking of first aid kits... I've watched with some fascination about the types of prices of some kits people buy for their rigs. I've seen like what I have, small, simple, basics to full on kits that are more complete than when I worked as a paramedic in...

Call ahead with your question. I'd think that most places would see it as a tent since you can drop it off and walk away in a tent sized spot, not a pull through RV spot. Explain it is not a trailer than can be lived in, only when the tent is deployed.
