Thank you!

After we got back from vacation up at Mount Rainier National Park the second week of August, I began the hunt for a smaller/lighter chuckbox. I did not rally care for the other wooden offerings on the market, and I was going to pull the expensive trigger on the Kanz Kitchen, but he is pretty...

Hi Karen, got it from Paul May @ Equipt Expeditions. http://www.equipt1.com/item/bat-270-awning-left-hand-side-driver Thanks, I really like it. I had a regular one from 2008, a Camping Lab one, same as the other Chinese ones like Ironman, ARB, etc. They are kind of a PITA to setup yourself, my...

"In The Shop" 05: Paul May's 200 Series Land Paul's rig is covered in the new issue of Tread magazine, great rig.

Worked On The Tent Today Not really the rig, but what resides on the top of it. On our vacation yesterweek to Mount Rainier National Park I chanted out the stock light bulb in the tents 12v housing for an LED one. I attempted to power it up by sliding the switch without putting the plastic...

"Oh Hey There!" 27: Vehicle Maintenance Walk-Around

Thanks! I talked to Harold Kanz on Sunday, looks like he is no longer making the light weight chuckboxes. Time consuming, and not making enough on them. If he had help it would be better, but for now he is no longer making them, bummer, I wanted to grab one, mine is sooooooooooooooo heavy.

Thanks man, I noticed over there the words were all spaced out in a few places from copying it from my forum to there. Yes, very happy with the new gear this year. We slept pretty good up there too, as soon as the sun goes down, it starts to cool off. Flannel sheets and a down comforter help...

On all of the other sites I am on where I have had a camping gear thread since 2008 or so, I was only able to post my whole review today on my forum, as we do not have a text/picture limit set, so I do not want to chance it here. It was like over 40K characters or so. I had to break it down into...

You are welcome Kurt. Got back yesterday from a four day trip, I do not think they have posted a new one yet. Still getting caught up on forums.

Nope, no music on camping trips, not even the stereo, I like to listen to nature.

Yes I am, and a few other sites including Expedition Portal.

It just looks that way because we have less interior space :yum:

I saw Marco's video the other day too from Trail Recon, awesome setup. I thought I recognized the electronics built into the drawer setup on the right when I saw the picture above earlier.

Thanks! A hitch rack would be good for firewood too. Yes, I need to cut back more, and I think eliminating the HUGE chuckbox will really help. Thanks, you too.

Yeah, I bring a lot, as I near senior citizenship, I tend to bring more :D Plus I have a lot of new gear this year I am going to try out, so no doubt I will weed back a bit next time. And that chuckbox takes up a lotta room, I am thinking about getting a custom one built over the winter that is...

Odyssey 34R-PC1500 Extreme Battery Installed 7-28-2017 I was on my second Toyota battery, and it recently started to get weak. The original Panasonic one from July of 2006 ran for seven years, and kept the ARB fridge going too on camping trips, as the fridge was not wired to the aux battery...
