I have one for my Yeti and it works great. I have only had it a for a month or so though.

Goal Zero has a Buck/Boost adapter that regulates the output voltage to a constant 12V. The Lithium battery will then control when it shuts off. Kind of expensive at $40 though and it may need to be fitted with a connector compatible with your battery. It wouldn't be hard to make one if you...

My Dodge 2007 5.9 Cummins. Carli suspension. I made a mount for the rear seat area so I can move the ARB between the Jeep and the truck.

Ouch. That always worries me. Did they measure everywhere..........

Welcome. I have always thought those would make a great build! V10 - Sorry about the SoCal gas prices though. It hurts a bit even in my diesel. You are also right up there near Carli Suspension. They really know Ford and Dodge Suspension systems.

You will love a TJ. I have a 2005 Rubi LJ. It is tight for overlanding, but the extra 10" wheelbase really comes in handy. Out here on the West coast, that letter "L" adds several thousand dollars though.

Last weekend at Vail Lake. Definitely not a remote camp. But I was there for a Homebrew Festival :tonguewink:.

Warbonnent makes awesome gear. I have one of their Superfly tarps. I would have one of their XLCs but I already own 6 hammocks.

Anybody else use a hammock as their preferred way to sleep when out camping?

I don't dive much anymore. I used to teach and run a dive store in SoCal. Actually met my wife working in that store. She came in to take lessons to have more in common with her boyfriend. :tearsofjoy: Of course, I didn't know that at the time. Our goal is to eventually throw off the...

I use an old Howatt Custom Bushmaster Longbow and a very old Bear recurve. Still use traditional tackle.

North County San Diego here.

I hate mud and avoid it when I can. Had to throw several jugs of water see. Washed it that night and again the next morning but still found mud stuck in places later. Stuff turned to cement. I hate mud.

I am not so sure this can be related to generations. IMO it is better related to age groups. If you asked this question 30 years ago it still would have likely been the same age groups out camping. Mostly new families out taking their kids camping / fishing / hunting etc. As people grow...

Interesting. I like how easy the vehicle-mounted one would deploy. I am a bit worried it may make a muddy mess near the vehicle though. I have a cheapie free-standing shower from Ozark trails. I use it with a small propane water heater if there is a good supply of water or a solar shower if...

It says max input of 120W on their website.

Great work!

Good deal for someone. I have a 1000W Lithium now but will probably get a 400 as well. Good size for the fridge in my Jeep.

I didn't see lockers on your list. If you plan on doing the Rubicon I would suggest at least one. You can do it without one but it will be tougher and your chance of dents will be a bit higher. There will likely be others there to assist with a tug but remember when a rig gets stuck or broken...

I run a 100W panel. It will keep up with my ARB 63qt fridge. It will usually have my battery pack charged before 1 pm after a night running the fridge. It would have been nice to have another 100W panel this last weekend. In addition to the fridge, I ran a 250W crockpot for 3 hours. I never...
