    "Clydesdale" from Texas

    Welcome aboard. You should find yourself at home among the full-size crowd. There are some pretty cool rigs in here.

    Hello from Texas

    I'm a little late chiming in, but welcome aboard.

    1999 Chevy Tahoe

    This isn't exactly the adventure you set out in search of. Long story short, overheated and engine locked. Frustrated? Yeah, just a little. But I'm more thankful than anything. Made it across three lanes of traffic and parked it where you see in the pictures. The way I see it, if God can part...

    2014 Ram Power wagon build

    I like the direction this is going. It's just a good looking truck, too.

    1999 Chevy Tahoe

    Got out and did a little exploring over the weekend. It's not Moab or a pass in Colorado, but it was outside, off the pavement, and a change of pace for a few minutes. Honestly, it's probably more urban exploration than anything. Someone will probably want to see the hole to the left in...

    Camp Photos!

    Thought I'd help so others could see your photo.

    Mrs. Clang's Jeep JKU Build - Mild

    I'm always amazed at how much a vehicle can change with the right tire/wheel combo. Interested to see how "mild" this stays.

    SVO ....Small Vehicle Overlanding

    I must say, some of you make a very convincing case for the SVO category. A very convincing case, indeed. Keep it up!

    Alcan Hwy - Prudhoe Bay - Inuvik - July 2017

    You, sir (and the rest of your crew), have my attention. This is one of those trips, like others, that I'd like to do someday. Definitely going to follow.

    Great White Buffalo (Carli Cummins build)

    Definitely following along. Quick question on the air line fitting, specifically where it's exposed. Are you going to be making a cap or something to cover it?

    1999 Chevy Tahoe

    Between the wind and the weight of the door, the pins and fender didn't stand a chance. The door probably would have been fine, but I just figured I'd get it back to a clean slate of sorts.

    1999 Chevy Tahoe

    Went "Jeep Mode" for a second... and promptly put my "new" door on. Thankfully, the new door lined up just fine. I've actually managed to startle myself a couple times with how easy it is to open and shut now. No more hitting and dragging on the striker! That said, there are a few cosmetic...

    1999 Chevy Tahoe

    A little cosmetic update. A couple months ago I was sitting with the door cracked open just a little bit. Why I didn't just roll down the windows a little bit, I'll never know. And about the time I think, "I should probably shut the door and roll down the windows", the wind grabbed the door and...

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Technically, it was a couple days ago... Next up is working on the door.

    The Adventure Wagon: A 2004 Volvo XC70 Overland Build

    Here's the link: http://www.caradvice.com.au/8502/2008-volvo-xc70-review/ This is a review from Australia, but I think much of it is applicable. The steering wheel is just on the other side. I've definitely not abandoned the brand, but I sure do understand your dad's view. I'm much more of a...

    The Adventure Wagon: A 2004 Volvo XC70 Overland Build

    I grew up in (and later wound up driving) a 1990 240 wagon that my parents bought when stationed in England. It went to beaches, out camping, crossed creeks, and traveled down muddy dirt roads. Sometimes while carrying four people, two dogs, and all our stuff when we would travel to visit...

    Would your overlander also become your BOV

    I've been around the B.O.B. discussion and it's often recommended to not use a backpack or bag that looks obviously prepared or tactical. You'd want a bag that, in a way, sort of blends in and doesn't raise any eyebrows, or draw people's attention to you as someone who is prepared. Seeing this...
