    Fairbanks, AK help!

    Headed to Fairbanks this summer - first time to Alaska! I'm on a budget (found RT from SLC for $118!) so I'm trying to keep costs down. Doesn't seem like the cheapest place in the world. Apparently there are no rental cars available either!?? I'd love to just rent a campervan or something like...

    Roof rack design preference: Longitudinal or lateral slats?

    Good to hear that from a functional standpoint it doesn't really seem to matter. I'd love to hear if anyone has tried both? Logically it seems that longitudinal bars would naturally be less noisy.

    Roof rack design preference: Longitudinal or lateral slats?

    I'm going to be building my own roof rack and need to decide how to design it. I'm thinking of using almost all 80/20 extruded aluminum. Problem is, I've literally never owned a vehicle with a full roof rack like this so I don't know what I like or not. I really really like the look of the...

    Moab in June: Best campground for kids

    We are planning a June Moab trip with a focus on off roading. Looking at Fins and Things and Hells Revenge. We are planning on tent camping and want to have a spot where my 3 kids (2,4, and 7) can play on rocks as the sun goes down. Any tips on a campground that would be a fun place for kids to...

    LR3/LR4 owners roll call!

    People hate on the air suspension (and I get it from a reliability/overlanding perspective) but it's really really comfortable and functional. Handles those washboarded roads amazingly well. You notice it's a soft ride on the pavement but it's amazing when you leave the paved road and realize...

    Post photos of your rig!! '05 LR3 HSE HD w/118k miles. Swapped to 18" wheels. Just bought it in December and loving it already. Had to fix up a few things as it had been sitting for a couple years but we're rolling now. Would love to see what people on here have done with theirs...

    Overland group buy

    Great to hear this has been done before. Did you do this with locals so you didn't have to worry about shipping after you received all of them?

    Overland group buy

    Curious if anyone would be interested in a group buy for some kind of larger items from a place like Alibaba? I'm looking on there and things like roof-top tents are quite inexpensive but often have MOQ of 10 or more. I understand that people may be averse to buying something like a RTT, sight...

    Idaho Trail Classics

    New to overlanding here (and off-roading in general) and trying to find a good list of some of the must-do or "good" trails in the state. I'm specifically in Pocatello and don't really know much to do in the area. Coming from the trail running/mountain biking world and knowing the trails around...

Excited to get into the motorized exploration side of life as well! Location: Pocatello, ID (and trying to figure out where...
