Well the reason I ask is, I'm considering selling my truck and my TJ and buying a Taco. Not strictly for the overland side, but also for reliability and gas mileage. I get around 12-14 out of either of those vehicles, and that's not loaded down with gear. We will be keeping my wife's JKU, but I...
I'm sure this has been discussed in depth, but I couldn't find much on the search function. Just curious what the overland community in general feels is best as far as a transmission. Standard or auto. In the rock. Rawlings's world, its by and large autos, but I'm curious as to what you guys...
Coffee doesn't do that to me. I guess I drink so much of it, I'm immune to its side effects.

The finish line/party will be at Left Nut Brewery in Gainesville, GA. On June 4th. I'm not sure what time exactly, but I would imagine after lunch sometime. Just depends on how quickly we can limp across the finish line. Total race miles is said to be 642 miles over a 3 day run. The rally...
We ( my wife and I) prefer Packit Gourmet over the other brands on the market. MUCH better taste and variety IMO.

This is Gunny. He's a rescued bull terrier mix. We have just recently added him to our family, so he's yet to have been camping. Won't be long though.

My wife and I are. We aren't truly ultralight, more like sortalight. My pack is a first gen ULA, before they had names. It's supposedly the predecessor to the ULA Ohm. It's crazy light and roomy. We only hammock camp while backpacking, and use Warbonnet hammocks. Our insulation varies by season...
Yea, I am plenty competent in using anything in my kit, or most anyone else's to be honest. I think it's a good thing to be able to be able to provide advanced care if need be, so long as you are able to. You can't always create an LZ and extract someone from every situation, so it's good to...
I carry a high lift, but rarely ever use it. I have a bottle jack and board that I use 99% of the time. I keep a floor jack in my truck tool box and the high lift and bottle jack in my Jeeps.

Yes. It's an off-road Rally type race, but it's not a high speed type Rally. It's called a points rally. The appeal of it to me is that it's 90% off-road/dirt roads and you camp each night. You can earn bonus points if you decide to take the challenge routes. Kind of overland/Rally type deal...

This is the link to the page. I will have to go back through my emails and see exactly where the start/finish is. I'm pretty sure there is a thread on Tacoma World about the rally. (I'm not a member there, so I'm not positive). If anyone has any...
Thank you sir! The pic of my TJ is from Hawk Pride off-road park just outside of Muscle Shoals, AL. We make several trips a year up there with our off-road club. I was born in Alex City, AL, and visited family up there every year. I love that Alabama clay!

I will have to pull my truck kit out and type an inventory of it ( I should have already did this, I know). And I will post it. Admittedly I probably carry more gear than I need, but being a firefighter/paramedic, I tend to look for the worse in any situation.

Great looking setups, guys. Do any of y'all know of a somewhat quick detach rack/cage system for a four door? I would really like to use a RTT on my wife's 4 door, but it wouldn't clear the carport with anymore height to it, and she's not keen on leaving one on it all the time. I think if I...
The registration is closed on it, but I will be glad to post the info on it, in the event they would like to come out to the finish line and after party. This is the first of supposedly an annual rally.

My wife and I have hammock camped for the last few years now. I still own a tent, but haven't used it in about 3 years. I do use my Tentcot when I camp on the islands, as there are no trees or anything. I have a Warbonnet Blackbird XLC and she has the Warbonnet Ridgerunner (bridge hammock). Both...
