    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    <p>We went out with our local Jeep club on the weekend for "Go Topless" day.  We went through a couple of local counties hitting mostly back roads and unmaintained access roads.  We stopped at a small cheese factory, Rambling Road (fitting name for overlanders, no?) micro brewery, and a...

    2011 KK Liberty Trailer

    <p>You did a great job with the under-rated Liberty.   The trailer is really slick, too.  Look forward to seeing more of what you do with it and where you go.</p> <p> </p>

    Jeep back from body shop

    That hood looks good, Chad. Good to see a couple more Jeeps on here.  Have to balance out all the Toyotas on the forum! (That being said, I'm looking for an 80 Series...) Keep us up to date with the trips and modifications you do.

    WRANGLER JK REAR EXPEDITION SET-UP BUILD

    Nice storage solution for the Jeep, Duncan. How sturdy are those cases?  Can a 180lb guy stand on one without deforming it?  Are they weather-tight? Thanks, and good luck with the build.  It's looking good already.

    Amount of miles/kilometer you do during a weekend trip

    I'll drive 4 hours (400 km +/-) one way just to get to some decent trails.  Usually, I will camp for the night, run another trail and head home - but I have done it in one day a number of times. We have lots of farm land and privately owned in Southwest Ontario.  Not much in the way of open...

    Michael, Is there any way you could add an 'unread posts' or 'new posts since last visit' button?   Or have I missed locating it somewhere?? I use it regularly on other forums I frequent and find it quite useful - and I don't miss any of the good stuff that way.  Just wondering... Keep up the...

    Family Trips

    Food, semi-frequent breaks (like every couple of hours) to stretch legs and burn some energy, some simple travel games like spotting letters on signs, different license plates or different coloured vehicles work for us.  Mostly things that are a distraction from endless lines on the highway...

    overlander or car camper?......

    We travel across paved roads to get away from the hustle and hectic life.  We then take our vehicles through rough terrain to get out into the less crowded land, to enjoy these areas that others don't often get to see.  Whether we paddle, cycle, hike or sit and soak it in once we get there -...

    Members Camera's

    I've just 'upgraded' from a point-and-shoot Panasonic Lumix to a Nikon D50 that my buddy was no longer using. I've picked up a couple of lenses and I am slowly learning the in's and out's of a DSLR. I was normally a snapshot guy with an eye for creating nice shots. I'm learning to compose a...

    I had it in the shop getting a head gasket installed. Someone saw it in there and wanted to purchase it from me. I threw out a ridiculous number and the fellow said he'd take it! I was kind of surprised, but happily took his money and looked at getting a Rubicon since I was doing more weekend...

    Here's what I had: '04 Land Rover Discovery Series II... This is what I have now: 2008 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4-door... I'm on the look-out for an 80 Series Land Cruiser that I can slowly turn into a vehicle to take us to out-of-the-way places in similar comfort as the Discovery, with...
