Amazing how this thread has devolved from "How has the Covid-19 virus affected your adventures?"
Just received notification that Overland Expo has officially been rescheduled to the end of July. That'll affect MY adventures. And I am pretty sure we have an OB member already making his way...
Finally made it out to the garage and dug these out. These things are bullet proof; I know they haven't been lit in 20 years, possibly back to 1993 or so when we were in Southern CA. Can't recall if we used them in NY or IL; know we haven't used them here in NC. Both the white gas stove and...
I'm no math major but if you use your own estimate of 1.3% mortality rate with the population of the USA in 2019 according to estimates= 329.6712 Million... and that is just using the US population.
The rack on my truck is home made so I drilled a couple holes on the cross bar and put in a carriage bolt. Since my rack is shorter the boards kind of rest on the sidewall of the bed while being firmly mounted to the rack, less strain on the holding bolt. I drilled a small hole in one of the...
Following too... will be looking to build a kitchen when I eventually get to where I want to be with my rig set-up. I'd probably want to go with a strap to hold the stove rather then screw it down in case I wanted to take the stove outside, to a table or something like that. I realize the...
Just found this on the news feed... "Some police Departments are responding to only calls that involve emergencies – calls like fender benders and lost items are being handled over the phone or people are required to go and give a statement at the police station." Guess it depends on where you...
Granted we are in strange times but with this mindset you should never leave your house for fear of putting someone at risk for the possibility "if you need assistance for anything".
I think it is more about risk management; obviously you don't go into the outback if you know your vehicle...
That's the great thing about this community. 1) They made the lists available to everyone at no charge so if needed you could source your own kits; and 2) they made the actual kit relatively affordable if you wanted to go that route; always will have issues with international sales, imports...
Had to cancel the meet-up/Rally Point had scheduled for March 28th; venue I was looking to meet at postponed their event to August. Still waiting to hear if Expo West is going to happen; then even if it is still on not sure if I would be able to make the trip from NC with other states shutting...
How does that compare to what you have now?
I am also looking at something to give me a bit more clearance in the front of my Silverado 2500HD. Thinking of just having my mechanic trim back the air dam; it took a few hits when I was out and about earlier this month.
Ran into the guys with Overland Unlimited Home at MOORE last month. One of their guys had the Ursa Minor on his Unlimited. It looked like a pretty nice set-up. If you hit up their web site or Instagram @overland_unlimited they can probably fill you in on what they went through to get it mounted.
You sound like me... almost all the way down the line. I like to use Knorr rice side and add the meat, canned corn, and the diced tomatoes with green chilis; makes for a nice filling meal. I also freeze some of these to take "camping" for a quick easy meal when out. The Knorr side with red...
Anyone added an inside mount to the A-Pillar grab handle? Also looking to add fog lights, maybe inside the rectangles just above the recovery points since stock bumper on the WT doesn't come standard.
Well, looks like I know what I am doing this week in the garage. I know I have at least one lantern out there and a couple of camp stoves. One of the propane camp stoves is my primary when I go out.:grinning:
Watching... am planning to go out as a volunteer but have not heard anything about cancellation/postponement yet. Last notice I received from Expo was it is still on and they are taking their lead from AZ and the other respective states (CO & VA) for later Expos. Overland Expo Statement on...
