  • Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance August 4th and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

    Nature Photos

    Built Built right on the river, you can tell it was once powered with a water wheel. which makes sense in it's day. In my travel in rural Pennsylvania, I came across a couple mill buildings that still had the foundation of the "power" room visible. The water rise/channel to the water wheel...

    Battle at Death Valley over Lithium Mining

    And yet there are old mines all over the place in the Panament area, including some still in use. How much activity, probably very low. A lot of acreage was added to the park in the last decade or so. I have mixed feelings on this, and will need more info before I can make a educated...

    Dometic CFX65 DZ fridge/freezer

    I watched a You-Tube comparison of a Engel, a Dometic, and a Snowmaster. The Snowmaster is on the high end cost wise, but it comes with the travel bag and the remote controller included. A ARB will cost about $200 dollars above the fridge cost to get those as options. It crushed the other 2...

    Gas can question for long term users

    I have one spectre tan fuel can, very nice, very durable. I need a source for a fuel spout for it that is not made with gold leaf. Besides that I have 6 standard old school Jerry cans. These have to be stored upright as they vent, and will have leakage when on rough tracks. I never invested...

    Camp Security Options?

    There is the cheap driveway/walkway passive alerts that are motion activated. Cheap at harborfrieght. The downside is that the sensor is wide, thus false alarms can be more easily triggered. Putting the sensor in a position where it is blocked on the sides helps focus the beam into a narrow...

    Legal Weapons and Overlanding

    It is your last paragraph that still gives me pause. If tbe worst was to happen, it would be the officers, rather than the DA.who makes that call. Kind of quilt first, innocent 2nd. Theoretically, only one state follows that assumption. I wonder how many readers know which state that is. Our...

    Whats the best dash cam and why?

    It's not the horrible driver, it is the lawyers. Example, had you looked down for an instant, had you looked out a side window for a moment,.....aka....YOU WERE DISTRACTED. Anything that puts you on the defensive. Another example. The insurance company incentive for safe driving with the plug...

    General Grabber ATx: What is your opinion of them.

    For the balancing issue, why did it take multitude times? Did the tire shop have to resort to road balancing them ? You read about certain brands, or sometimes certain tires within a brand having problems with that issue.

    Legal Weapons and Overlanding

    USA...18^ barrel...legal as long as it overall has a certain length. I never understood Canada's law that a weapon...rifle, shotgun, or pistol, supposedly could not be used for self defense against animals. Correct me if I'm wrong. Supposedly the border patrol agents tell those who are...

    Whats the best dash cam and why?

    2 separate is what I would prefer over a dual unit that 'logs the driver in the vehicle'. It's one thing to record what is behind you and what's in front, but you don't need the cops or the other lawyer using your own CAM unit against you.

    4runner opinion

    If your concerned about any body rust, get yourself a small magnet, and ck around the wheel wells, and rocker areas. No stick=body work, weak stick=light body work. Very important in road salt areas. From the picture it looks nice, and as others have said, if some or most of these mods were...

    General Grabber ATx: What is your opinion of them.

    What is your opinion of them/ do you use them?....... A 2 ply sidewall vs 3 for NITTO and BFG. Anyone put a significant amount of mileage on their 60,000 tread warranty? THEIR PRICE IS VERY SIMILAR TO THESE OTHER 2 OFFERINGS. Finally, how is their road manners, as they will spend more time...
