    On the fence - push me over: buy or build a skottle?

    Big part of the reason I chose to build - if I skuttle the skottle in the long run, much less of an investment! :grinning:

    On the fence - push me over: buy or build a skottle?

    OK, I'm building...impatient and can't be bothers spending the extra money right now...LOL Plus, this should be a fun project. :grinning: After dropping my Amazon credit card credits against the Bayou Classic 17" discada, the Coleman burner and a carry bag for the kit, I'm into this for $22 so...

    Let them eat SPAM!

    I just fried up some Turkey SPAM for lunch a few minutes ago. My parents looked at me like I was crazy - my wife just avoids it. I asked my parents if the bologna they still eat is any better...crickets... :laughing: Fried it up, added some delicious bbq sauce and enjoyed the hell outta it! I...

    On the fence - push me over: buy or build a skottle?

    Totally a first-world moment here. :wink: I'm waffling on whether I should just buy a new Skottle (love the idea, would get over the price/don't like the price)...or if I should build a Skottle (I like building things (I build guitars), price is much better). I tend to prefer things to be...

    What is your preferred shelter? (Rooftop Tent vs Ground Tent vs Etc...)

    For a few years, I was all in on hammocks. When you tour by motorcycle, size/weight is a real issue. But ultimately I just couldn't find a comfy hammock (for me). Eventually, I ended up finding a Kamp Rite Cot. Oversize Kamp Rite Cot And I LOVE it! Raised off the ground, easy to stay warm in...

    Best mobile air compressor unit for Overland travel?

    I have been eyeing the PowerTank option - BUT, not fond of the footprint size, anf for stock 33's, a bit of overkill, IMO. I'm familiar withthe Viair units from riding motorcycles - guys swear by them. I may just go the Smittybilt route simply because I like the brand. I can build in time on the...

    Picked up Smittybilt Scout 2.0

    Digging the Commander/trailer combo! Last Jeep Jamboree I trail guided at back in Canada, i was given a Commander/Hemi for the event. Burgundy over cream interior (SO hard to keep the mud/dirt out that weekend...LOL) Newbies scoffed at me when I said i would take it on every trail they went on...

    OB Approved Two is One, One is None Rule

    Love it! I'm a big fan of redundancy and having a backup plan. Touring on my motorcycle taught me that - witnessing a friend who thought his tire patch kit would solve the flat tire issue he had scream in frustration as the sealant tube has ruptured and hardened was a real reminder to have more...
