    Big White Truck Cross-Country - Atlantic Coast Edition

    On the drive north, coming out of the forest, I saw perhaps the most stereotypical VA landscape yet. It did not dissapoint. In the coming days I'll put this up as a print on my site, brycectravels.com. I stopped traffic on the small two lane bridge to get the picture, but being as I was in the...

    Big White Truck Cross-Country - Atlantic Coast Edition

    Well, as it goes, I've been a bit busy driving. I got up here surprisingly fast -- I'm now in the Adirondacks. I was planning on going to western NY and seeing Niagra Falls, the price of gas and my budget kind of ruled that out of the question. I'll be back for sure, I'd love to head into Canada...

    Big White Truck Cross-Country - Atlantic Coast Edition

    Yeah that's something I quickly figured out. I think everyone does. More sounds better -- more actually sucks.

    Big White Truck Cross-Country - Atlantic Coast Edition

    I left around noon from Charleston today and drove for 5-6 hours. I made it to Johnson City, TN, and headed up into the mountains for the night. And since not much has happened yet I'll just discuss some relevant things. 1. I have blogposts on my website that dive into specifics...

    Big White Truck Cross-Country - Atlantic Coast Edition

    Hey, my names Bryce. I live half the year in Charleston, SC, and half out of my truck. Currently on top of a mountain pass on the TN/NC border in my tent writing this post. I'm a landscape/adventure photographer, my website is brycectravels.com As some of you may know, a few months back I did...

    Tent Security for wondering child

    I would argue against a rooftop tent. Height is just another thing that could injure a child or a dog. I've been trying to train my dog to sleep in my rooftop tent but I don't know if I'll ever be comfortable enough. And their nails could go right through any fabric or canvas.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Always! Might wire brush the center parts down and paint them black.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Stopped by Hendrick Toyota in North Chas for rotation/oil. Did 175,000mile fuel maintence/replaced a dry rotted hose. They always get her straight before I hit the road.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Routine maintenance on my Tundra before I head to Maine for the fall. Exhaust had some surface rust so I took care of that with wire brush and rustoleum. All new gaskets as well.

    RTT vs Ground

    I love RTTs, I live out of mine. To gain any actual benefit over a ground tent, you need to get a fiberglass or metal popup RTT. That's the simple truth. And for that price, you're looking at least 2g, closer around $3,000. It sounds like you are out enough to justify an RTT, but you're going...

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Ants in my Tundra. Put 3 bait stations out, hope they’re gone. Weird cuz I just had it detailed, there was a clump of granola under the floor mat that had like 20 ants.

    What not to do with Bear Spray!

    Sounds fun! I was hiking Mt Sneffels in CO, snow was waist deep. Bear spray in hand as I was solo. Fell over, safety clip came out, sprayed my face. If I didn’t have sunglasses on I don’t know if I would’ve made it (or wanted to)! My water pouch tasted like pepper for the next 3 weeks.

    Rig Photos

    Some photos from last October when I was, lets just say, finding my own editing style. Truck still looks stunning though. Back then I slept across the rear seat, or if I had stuff back there, I put a sleeping bad across the front bench seat.

    Roofnest Sparrow EYE

    Hey guys, I've been living out of my Sparrow Eye for 2.5mo and done over 15,000 miles in that time. I've spent over 75 nights in there and feel I have come to a pretty decent understanding of the tent and wanted to share my thoughts. The full article can be found at...

    Why #vanlife Sucks

    Honestly sounds like the author just does not enjoy it and isn't thinking his problems through. In which case, why continue? He could probably sell his van for what he put into it! 1. Overnighting Sucks. But he's using LA as an example. Why in the world would you live in a van and choose to stay...

    Tires

    Yeah, terrain is going to matter a lot. I run though heavy mud/heavy rain/sand and occasionally snow/ice. I run Falken Wildpeaks and love them. Sometimes a little bit of slip from a stoplight in the rain, but only if I gas it. My father runs Cooper Discovery AT3s XLTs on his 89 YJ. They're...

    2.5 Months in an RTT & Tundra

    And so that was the end of that short jaunt. Whats next? Well, in September I'm heading to the northeast for a bit to get the fall colors. Not sure how long I'll be there for, but I need to get back on the road. Never have I felt so free before. There is a lot of country out there, and you have...

    2.5 Months in an RTT & Tundra

    I did the Badlands in the morning, and after that I did the Minuteman Missile sites. Genuinely the most incredible place Ive seen on my entire trip. The visitor center was amazing, as was the missile silo. After that, I did Mt Rushmore, which was kind of disappointing. It has been so...

    2.5 Months in an RTT & Tundra

    Ok, for real this is getting wrapped up now! When I went to Devils Tower, I had trouble finding any public land to camp on. So instead I slept in the Roofnest at the scenic overlook right on the highway. The next morning I hit Devils Tower. Definitely somewhere you can spend a half day. Well...
