FWIW, I just spent the weekend with my new Massimo 40qt from Costco at $270. It worked very well. I ran it off my home brew power station all weekend. I charged the battery once for an hour because it was convenient, not sure if it really would have needed it. I kept it at 38* all weekend.

Wow, that looks cool! Where was this stuff when I was building things a long time ago?

Looks like a fun little project!

Buy a first class ticket, you get get very comfortable in any first class seat I have ever been in.

Consider skipping the RTT in favor of a ground tent to make life easier with a dog that size. As far as dealing with dog waste just use this and forget about it.

I used my little power station over the weekend. I went up to my camp in the mountains and plugged in my new Massimo 40qt fridge that I bought from Costco, and it powered it just fine. Ran most of Thursday, Friday, Saturday, until Saturday late afternoon. I had the fridge set at 38* . Friday...

Well, I pulled the battery pack apart. It netted a 12v 19ah SLA battery, a 200 watt inverter with outlet, a decent power switch, and the charger, which is a 12v, 750 milliamp transformer. Not sure if I will use much of it for this go around, but maybe another time. There were so many circuit...

I have a CAT jump pack from Costco that was given me for my birthday. It has never functioned worth a darn though. It certainly won’t start a truck or tractor with a dead battery. I never use the compressor, as I have way better solutions for air. The lights are worthless. I have plugged in my...

Just drip a thin line of honey from the ant hole to a neighboring tent.

It is nice having access to expert advice for all your troubles though.

Most important thing of solo trips is being happy with who you have for company. Are they quiet or do they blab all the time.

It is starting to look like you get what you pay for.

Any comments on Rockpals power stations? The price per watt seems far cheaper than the bigger name brands. Was curious if anyone has any experience with them. https://www.rockpals.com/ Thanks,

The other, more frequently used method, is to buy a vehicle, kit it out with everyth you want. The go weigh it, then buy a a 3/4 ton truck and a trailer to carry it all.

Hi, I am Walker, from Cave Creek, AZ (just a wee bit north of Phoenix). I have a 1967 Scout that has been in the family since 1967. I have owned it for 20 years, and it was my first foray into four wheels drives. I also have a 3/4 ton Silverado that is my work truck, but frequently doubles as my...
