    Carrying extra fuel on the cheap

    Im thinking about something like this for my fj. It works with anything with a spare tire on the back. Options to carry whatever or diy a bracket. Easy on the wallet. https://www.rockslideengineering.com/shop/accessories/ez-rack-kit-basic-steel.html

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Removed the old bumper so we could tack up this kit from coastal offroad in delta,bc. It went together so nicely. Price was great for a great product if you dont mind a little diy.

    Weight issue with aftermarket bumper?

    No bull bar. Full bumper is my plan. Also, i think the airbag system on the fj does not use impact sensors, but a sensor that measures speed of de-celeration. So no aftermarket bumper really messes up the airbags. Thanks for the input. Ive seen lesser bumpers accidently damaged or totally...

    Map filter - winter camping

    Around here many winter camping options are very dependant on the year. Brown christmas in the okanagan this year, so many more options than usual. Even rig dependant too. Cool idea though. Id like to know more rad spots, summer or winter

    The official OTO "Ozark Trail Overland" gear thread!

    My amazon 2for 25$ led flashlights use the same 2x 18650 size batteries as sweet lights. They are just as bright. Tolerances are lower but i dont care if the get lost or broken. A full year later and i just cant lose them. Expensive things seem to dissappear. Cheap alternativez hang around...

    Social media..

    Facebook only. If there was a better/other way to communicate/plan with groups of my friends id ditch facebook too. Youtube as viewer only. And Overland Bound. It counts .

    Sleep System

    I used to use a small thermarest type thing. Now i use a bigger one. 2+ inches thick and full length. A real game changer. Takes up a bit more space but worth every bit. And a pillow. A real pillow.

    Grilling Options

    Im also trying to lighten up packing thr fj, or atleast make room for different stuff. Gonna ditch the small propane bbq for a small burner. The bbq frequently stays in the truck anyway and we fire cook.
