Another great vid showing that pretty much anything will work for most trips (most of the time anyways).

Thanks.

What brand/size of traction boards are those? I have the Diamondback on my Colorado as well and have been wondering if some boards would fit there. I don't want to put them on the outside due to sun damage... theft... and they would hinder me being able to fold the top back over on itself...

These new line of Pelican Cases oriented toward Camping/Outdoors/Overlanding seem very promising! I like them. Being able to systematize my truck bed and adapt it to different things would be HUGE! I could have a set of boxes for camping/fishing on the beach. Others for overlanding. And even...

It looks like we are on pretty similar paths (as a starting point anyways). A bed cover, ZR2 sliders, air dam removed, and skids are the best starting points IMO. With those modest mods you can do most trails/roads in the U.S.

Oh yes... that is a very heavy boat. I can tell just from looking at it! Diesel is the way to go when at hwy speeds and maxed out towing. Especially when you hit some head winds, inclines, or altitude. They will just torque their way along.

It sounds like you are loving your truck just as much as I am! Feel free to post up some pics of your rig when you get her set up! I rarely haul over 3k lbs in mine and opted for the gasser (But had a LONG internal debate about going diesel. I really like them!) . However, mine has been doing...

I do like the skids in this video. I may get at least their Transfer case/Fuel pump skid.

Sounds like an interesting build! Do you have a build thread going at this time? (or pics)

Lockers!!!... I have been dedicating a little time to figure out if I can install front/rear electric lockers from the ZR2 into the diffs on my truck. I already verified that the diffs have the same part numbers and gear ratios. Just different axles coming out of them. Turns out that some guys...

I found another vid on the Military version of the ZR2... but this time with some actual action shots. Looks cool. I can see my truck retiring from daily drive use in 20yrs and being turned into something like this! lol

Could the Colorado be the next HMMWV?!?!!

How to add onboard Navigation, a front Camera (with tire guides), and gain on-screen video playing capabilities at the same time. I don't care about the NAV aspect with the carplay. However, the front mounted camera has caught my eye. It would come in handy on them trails when I am by myself...

I found the answer/solution to being able to live out of our trucks full time. This is something that would be comfortable to live out of 24/7 for many months on end. It looks lightweight and leaves the main part of your truck bed open for storage of the heavy items like fuel/water and such...

AEV Front Bumper is now available! It appears that all of AEV's lineup is now fully available for non-Bison trucks. I was taking a look through the pics and it even looks like the front bumper comes with body paneling all the way up to under the front headlights. Which is cool because the...

Awesome rig! Thank you for sharing! I had no idea of this company's existence. I will now be keeping an eye on them. However, it appears that they only currently make rear bumpers for the Colorado. It looks like they have great prices and the bumpers hold up really well on them Canyons! The...

What a beautiful Z71 build from a few years ago. I am going to have to watch this vid a few more times!

We flew from the coast of North Carolina to Kodiak Alaska. The massive ice fields were along the Canadian and Alaskan coasts. Just picture massive 5 to 8,000 foot tall mountains rising up out of the ocean... with glaciers just as tall as the mountains tucked in between the mountains. It was...

And... I am back! What a trip. We got to fly over some seriously AWESOME terrain! Things like volcano mouths, Massive Glacier fields high in the mountains, many pods of whales, etc. It was so cool. I took some pics but won't bore you with them since they are not technically overlanding...
