    New Ford Ranger arriving in early 2019

    Ain't that the truth? I'm glad the Ranger is coming back, growing up we had a couple of Rangers until my dad got a 97 F150. Like @Steve said, my guess is it'll be slightly smaller than that generation F150 as the new ones are pretty large (and expensive)! Heck, even a Tacoma or Colorado are...

    That's pretty neat.

    I'm going to need to step my trip coffee game up.

    Storing eggs

    I've used the yellow box for several years and haven't had a crack. I place them on the top though so that might have something to do with it. I'd like to try out the bottle trick however. I've seen it recommended in several places and it seems like it would be a lot better space wise.

    Cast Iron or No? (weight right now is not an issue for me)

    I carry two cast iron skillets, and a Dutch oven. The oven doesn't get used as much as the skillets, but I want to start making bread, etc. with it. I need to season everything and get it easier to clean up. Still kind of a pain, but I know I just need to use them more.

    Winch Security

    Mine is set into the bumper and like @000 said, you'd have to take the whole front end apart to get it out.

    Who's all going to Overland Expo West 2018?

    Didn't even think to take the time off for it this year. Never been but really want to go. Maybe next year...if I remember.

    It's been a long strange trip. Lot of life going on. Got married in September, promotion in October, and bought a house last month. Trying to get back into some sort of normalcy.

    GPS/Tablet

    I think where you might be getting this from is the iPad (at least the older ones, not sure on the newer ones). The only way to get GPS on them was to have a cellular one. However most people Bluetooth a GPS puck to them for better signal anyway. Most Android (that I'm aware of) come with a...

    Overland/ Outdoor Reading and Mags?

    I used to read Overland Journal, it's a nice magazine, but it is spendy. I'm thinking about subscribing again, but who knows. As far as books specifically related to overlanding, there's the VDEG (Vehicle Dependent Expedition Guide), I just picked one up related to traveling in the US and...

    Post Your YouTube channel

    I plan on creating more content for mine this year. Going to be a combination of trips, wrenching, reviews, etc. It's Northstar Overland.

    Wrenching on their own rigs?

    I tend to do most of my own work, unless it's something covered under warranty, or something I'm not confident I can do.

    Hello Minnesotans!

    Meeting starts at 7. There's a room off to the side that were able to close the doors on to drown out the sound of bowling.

    Hello Minnesotans!

    Wow, I've been away from the party for too long. Had a lot of stuff going on in my personal life with a promotion (up in Maple Grove now), wedding, and buying a house. Midwest Overland Society is a group of us overlanders that get together once a month, the second Tuesday at Tuttle's in Hopkins...

    Are you talking the ~$1000 lens, or the ~$700 lens?

    Photography

    On our honeymoon to Western South Dakota we took around 300 pictures. My wife used the camera on auto (she wants to learn more), and I was able to do Shutter Priority and play around with it to see how it affected the photos. Was great fun learning how to use it more. Now I want some different...

    Steve & Deb's Hiker Trailer 5X8 Deluxe

    I've been in contact with them about getting one built, and they told me late spring/early summer.

    Are tail light guards lame?

    I've got them for my JK. They use the same screws holding the tail lights to the body, so they won't really protect them from much of anything. I like the look, so I'll leave them on, even though they stick out a bit and could catch on something that could do some damage.
