Does anyone have any recommendations on propane bottle sizes? I'm running a pickup with modular 12" bed rack so I could mount it in the rear corner of the bed (with an AT Overland mount) and feed my 2 burner stove and, when needed, a heater for the RTT. I was thinking there may be a way to...

Sorry I couldn’t join. Just got off a 14 hour flight from Singapore. Any pics?

I'm planning to be there.

Looking for some advice on lens color for lighting. I will be using a bumper that integrates a 30" Baja Designs light bar and has 2 Baja Design lower flush mounts on the sides. I was also planning to add some ditch lights on the A pillars. I don't have a lot of experience with amber lenses...

I'm trying to decide between an iPad Mini and a regular iPad. They are both about $550 for the GPS/Cellular versions. The new iPad Pro 11" is about the same physical size as the iPad but double the cost. I will be mounting it in a Chevy Colorado ZR2 and don't want to take up too much space...

Thanks, I guess I haven't been watching close enough. I did look at the ARRL site last night and noticed they have testing in San Jose every week in Jan-Feb. I think this is different than the cram session that happened in Modesto. This sounds like just the test being administered whereas...

Yes, 589 is an option too. They don't seem to have as many mounting accessories, though. Which rack are you running? I am interested in whether the taller rack is an issue for aero drag and or the weight of the RTT being up high causing stability issues off-road.

Wondering if people have opinions on bed racks for my ZR2 pickup. I have a RTT coming for Xmas and need to get a rack to mount it. I am leaning toward a 12" modular rack from CBI, Datin or Relentless. I like the idea of keeping the tent lower but maintaining some room to mount things on the...

Did I her something about another one of these training/test events happening in San Francisco? I would have done the Tracey one if I knew about it. How can I find out about any future events? Thanks

I'm interested.

Do you open the air valve in the exped when closing up the tent? If so, does it self inflate or does it need some help? Tepui mentioned that they will start offering another high end mattress option this spring for $450. I think it is about 3.5 inches of memory foam type material from a...

I put 33 inch E rated K02s and it feels fine from a gearing standpoint. Still very responsive. It feels less responsive under braking. The issue is tire clearance front and rear. The front can be trimmed without too much of an issue. The rear has an issue due to the arc of the axle on the...

Yes, there's already a plan. You can find the details for the Rally Point under Rally Point Events and the "West" region pull down: https://www.overlandbound.com/event/sf-peninsula-caravan-to-overland-bound-rally-west-2018-oct-5-7/

Michael, I joined the team for Gaia by clicking the link, but I'm not seeing where I have access to any maps. Where do I look in the app for access to the OB team maps? Thanks

Found it thanks. I’ll try to make the Santa Teresa waypoint meetup.

Chevy and Ford mount all their leaf spring based shocks the same way - inboard hanging below the axle. Jeep does a nice job tucking the shocks close to the wheels. Not sure if they have leaf springs or coils. I put the 589 skids on mine but agree that GM should engineer a better setup for...

Guys, I'm not seeing the Rally Point from the Bay Area listed. Am I looking in the right place? Rally Point -> Rally Point Events Thanks

For those that want to do a little more crawling, BDS just announced this long awaited lift package today for the ZR2 that keeps the DSSV shocks in place.

I've had a ZR2 for about 3 months and am loving it. It seems to be a lot more bang for the buck compared to the Tacomas I looked at, although there were no Pros anywhere to be found and the Bay Area dealerships mark them up considerably >$50K. I paid under $40K for the ZR2 and it has...

Thanks for the inputs. I’ll give that a try next time. I’m in Tahoe this weekend with the truck and did Sourdough Hill via the end of the Rubicon. Gaia worked great. Now I need a iPad and mount so I’m not fumbling for the phone.
