In countries like Australia, where GVWR limits are strictly enforced, there are options for reinforcing the vehicle and having it reclassified with a higher GVWR. The U.S. doesn't have that level of enforcement, and therefore there is no demand for formal recertification. We could...

That was an interesting video. Thanks, and congratulations on your retirement.

Search the forum for "Pisgah", and then go.

The definition of camping should be crafted so as to exclude sleeping with 24 of your best friends in an olive drab canvas tent under military command, or living as a refugee from disaster or civil unrest. Similarly, overlanding does not include sleeping on the top of a main battle tank. So...

Space photographers would have the camera on a moving mount, so the stars would be stationary. The faster the satellite moves past, the less it will even appear on a long-exposure image. Perhaps what we need is an affordable way to collect or dispose of all the space trash, and Musk probably...

They can dig tunnels under your yard and undermine the foundation of your house.

Odd that they dropped the 1000's Anderson input from the 2000.

For many of these there are cheap options, high end options, and middle ground. It also depends if you will be doing your own labor, and if so, whether you have the tools already. I would estimate $10-15K. Baseline for that estimate: Front bumper/hybrid bumper-C4 $650 with shipping $800. Rear...

I heard that same podcast, and had a similar reaction. That's the Overland Journal, though - I don't think we'll ever see an article in their magazine covering NC105 and Hurricane Creek. Outer Mongolia, sure. North Carolina, never. I read the magazine as vehicle-based National Geographic...

There is room for two cots, and vertical space for a bunk bed setup. Be careful with the feet pressing into the tent floor. Maybe a tarp underneath (or an OzTent ground cloth), and a Harbor Freight moving blanket on the inside floor.

In x2 - my wife and I will drive in from Norfolk on Thursday departing Sunday. Burgoo sounds great.

You can swap out the bulbs and use it as a bug zapper.

For lower MPGs, small differences represent major savings, while at higher MPG the savings diminish quickly. For a 1000 mile drive, 5 MPG is 200 gallons, and 7 MPG is 143 gallons, so that 40% increase of 2 MPG saved you 57 gallons of fuel. 20 MPG is 50 gallons, and 28 MPG is 36 gallons, so...

Quality-Weight-Price/Value. I'm only looking for a high quality 180 due to the 4Runner tailgate. If Kinsman or Alucab made a 180 I'd buy one. Considering 23Zero or OVS.= for a 180.

I've used mine on two trips. The first time the center seemed too hot. Last weekend everything went well. Four changes: I went a little lower on the heat, used a little more oil, used a rounded metal spatula (from Smithey Irownware), and used the recently added metal bowl to cover food and...

If we're talking about primary uses rather than capabilities or images, then we should accept that the majority of all 4X4s - including Rubicons, Defenders, and TRD OffRoads - stay on paved and gravel roads. Most people buy the image, or just-in-case capabilities, and then put lower profile...

That's Easter weekend, so a hard no. But the other weeks in April sound good.

Pop rivets and rivet nuts are different things, no?

I don't know. I thought they were all much the same bars, but seven of eight Prinsu eyebolts were a hair too large to slide into the slot. Maybe the Prinsu bolts don't work with Prinsu racks, but more likely the racks are a little different. I learned not to spend money on multiple sets of...

Sherpa rack with Sherpa smileys. Prinsu makes eyebolts but only one of eight would fit the Sherpa.
