    Camp security

    Shotgun, 1911, and like Ark.Don said always keep "that on guard feeling" and be aware of your surroundings. Approach any camp site, including your own, with caution. A bear or a two-legged-peckerwood may have entered your camp while you were away.

    Do You Know What Purple Paint on a Fence Post or Tree Means

    If you live in Texas or some surrounding states, you may have seen a post or pole on the edge of someone’s property spray painted purple. This isn’t just a choice in lawn decor, there’s actually a reason for it that you may not be aware of. According to the Purple Paint Law, states like Texas...

    Rednecks and litter/trash/rubbish

    While I believe you should drop the use of adjectives all together when describing the people that cause the eyesores you are talking about. I have seen all walks of life littering on a small and grand scale. There is a little two lane road on my way to our small regional airport that for some...

    12v fridge: Engel, ARB, or National Luna US Support

    I agree with the Snomaster being a great choice. I am in the market and have been looking at all you've mentioned above and I still come back to Snomaster. I have no affiliation with them, just like their product.

    Trail Rig & Daily Driver Communications

    I want my Rig to be ready for Overlanding at a moments notice without too much hassle. So considering communication, while on the trail and off (everyday driving), the dash would have the following: Cell Phone, CB Radio, GMRS Radio, Ham Radio, means of navigation (GPS unit, iPad Mini, etc). So...

    I agree on the 90 to 100 degree heat. With a CO2 tank you could cut and tape a box around the main valve while airing up, hook up a 12 volt fan and a duct and you have yourself a McGyver Air Conditioning unit.

    The EH-2 Expedition Hauler by 410XCO

    Very nice work!! I am building a trailer also and I was wondering about your trailer tongue length. How far is it from your vehicle to the structure on your trailer? In other words, what is the steepest angle you can go through (like a ditch or creek) without your trailer contacting your...

    New Midland MXT275 (GMRS Mobile)

    Copy, I understand what you were talking about now. Do you have to adjust the TX wattage down when talking on the lower channels or does the radio already know and adjust for you? Or is this radio restricted to just channels 15 thru 22?

    New Midland MXT275 (GMRS Mobile)

    If the GMRS frequencies are 5 watt or 0.5 watt then how can Midland sell GMRS radios that are 40 watts? I'm confused.... MXT400 MICROMOBILE® 2-WAY RADIO Max out your GMRS performance with the Midland MicroMobile® MXT400 two-way radio. With 40 Watts of broadcasting power, this radio is the most...

    OB Approved Overland Safety: Fire Extinguishers

    I know this might seem costly, but if you have never used a fire extinguisher before I would recommend that you buy an extra one. Find a safe place and use it as though you are putting out a fire. Many people have misconceptions about extinguishers and during a fire is not the time to be...

    I can tell you this, since I am in the business, I have been in many many beef harvest facilities and they are some of the cleanest food places you will ever see. I also see the the propaganda that PETA and Factory Farming puts out but the simple truth is, there fake news. Ste up a tour of a...

    I have to agree with Kent R., I also use both whereas my compressor is the backup because I hate the sound of those small compressors (and leaf blowers on a Saturday morning). I also get my refills at my local welding shop. While I'm there I also check my propane level. If you just start talking...

    I love all kinds of foods, but what I love best is the mixture of them. I am a Meat Man by trade but I like my veggies too. As a Native American (Lakota) I find it hard to eat todays Beef and processed foods while maintaining a healthy weight. Buffalo (North American Bison) has twice the protein...
