    New overland bound family from San Antonio

    I thought it looked familiar. I drove past on my way to the store to double check. Yep, that's my roommate's C5. Most of the vehicles there are his. I only claim the 2 black Jeeps. Nice to know like minded folks are in the neighborhood. If you want a hand finishing up before your trip, feel free...

    New overland bound family from San Antonio

    Welcome to OB. I am also from San Antonio. Great looking rig. Have fun in Ouray. I can't wait till I make it back out there. I also think you live on the next block from me. I've passed by a new Tundra getting some late night work done on it recently, and it looks just like yours.

    Dehydrated meals - any recommendations?

    I would have to go with mountain house too. I have never been disappointed by any of their meals. Another direction you could go, is to make your own. Years ago, I was really into "prepping". I had bought some of those emergency meal kits, but found them to be pricey, so I decided to make my...

    US Southwest Chasing Campfires Presents: Camp Every Weekend in October Challenge

    I won't be making it out this weekend, next weekend, or any other weekend for the foreseeable future. :cry: The place where I work has finally decided to reopen. I'm happy to be going back to work, but also bummed, because my days off are Mon. thru Wed. If any of y'all are retired, or don't work...

    Roof Top Tent (RTT) Question

    I Have a Smittybilt RTT, along with a bunch of other equipment from them. I would say their customer service is pretty good. Although I have been waiting 2 months on a replacement rear hatch for my Jeep's hardtop, which was on back order, they have been very prompt to answer my emails to keep me...

    Recommendations for a rig setup

    Wow! I had no idea there was so much involved with this. I thought it would be as simple as someone saying "Most people use this model.", or "You should go with this one, for xyz reasons.". After reading what Prerunner1982 had to say, it emphasized what you were saying. I now see how green I am...

    Recommendations for a rig setup

    Thanks, this is a big help, and it does give me a head start. I already have an 8ft whip in the rear for my CB, and there's not much room left back there with my Jerry can and shower tank. Not that I use my CB all that much, but I still like to have it just in case. I will look into your...

    Recommendations for a rig setup

    Holy cow! @RoarinRow wasn't lying. That was an open ended question. I did not know there were so many options. Looks like I have some researching to do. Thanks @Prerunner1982.

    Recommendations for a rig setup

    Lol, I didn't think it would be that tough of a question. I've seen a lot of Jeeps with the antenna on the front bumper. As for the radio, I don't want to break the bank, just something to communicate with. Thanks for your comments. Hopefully some Jeepers will chime in.

    Can I use GMRS radio with ham tech license?

    Thanks. No still waiting. I just passed on Saturday. They said about a week or two. That's what I figured. I couldn't really find a definitive answer online.

    Can I use GMRS radio with ham tech license?

    I just passed my tech exam, and was wondering if I can talk on my Midland GXT500 GMRS two way radio with my ham license, or do I need to apply for a GMRS license?

    Recommendations for a rig setup

    I just passed my technicians exam. I want to get a sutup for my rig, but I have no clue what to get, i.e. radio and antenna. HELP! If it makes a difference, I mainly got the license to talk with others on group trail rides.

    Get your ham license and use your phone.

    Thanks for the info. I just passed my technician exam Saturday. Just waiting for my call sign. Not sure what radio to get for my rig yet. The EchoLink will at least get me started, till I can talk to some people on here, and figure that out. Looking forward to my first ham communication.

    Company to pay 50K to travel across US

    That's what I call it when they order it from my bar. "One bottle water coming right up".

    My buddy's new Rubicon.

    Wow, that's amazing! You have worked on some cool vehicles. A lot of history you brought back to life. I had an 84 XJ which I eventually traded in for my 91 YJ. I still own that one. I have probably turned every nut and bolt on that thing, and plan to do it again when I put in a 6 cyl engine...
