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

    Sounds like you should flip a coin :tearsofjoy: Personally, I purchased a used one, and they do pop up pretty frequently, and it was a little more than half of the new price. However, if I hadn't found the used one I probably would have just continued to use my Jetboil stove, as the Skottle...

    THIS is what OB is all about!

    Couldn't agree more! @Michael and @Corrie have definitely created an anomaly when it comes to an automotive forum, and I mean that in the best way possible!

    Yakima buys Road Shower

    Definitely true in some cases. I did get speak to our Yakima rep and he anticipated a potential price drop, but we'll see.

    Yakima buys Road Shower

    Saw this in our industry publication this week. Yakima’s expanding their portfolio with the acquisition of Road Shower. Last year, we saw Thule acquire Tepui. https://www.bicycleretailer.com/announcements/2019/12/05/yakima-buys-road-shower#.Xer1IiVOklQ

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Yes! If only work would stop getting in the way! I normally get out almost every weekend, but not recently, unfortunately.

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Thanks @Lanlubber ! Totally appreciate the feedback! I was definitely curious as to how the 38's would end up looking compared to the 35's. It definitely needed the additional 2" spacer in the rear and the extra 1" spacer in the front with the Teraflex Outback springs. It just didn't look...

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Decided to upgrade some front end components and did the Yeti Steer Smarts tie rod, drag link with attentuator, and their front track bar. Also lifted the Jeep up about another inch front and rear and put on some new shoes with the fifteen52 Turbomac HD Classic's and some 38" Milestar Pat's...

    Wanted Black Friday 2019 Deals?

    Honestly, most of the companies that cater to the Overlanding community are really not all that big, at all. Yes, there's exceptions to that, like Smittybilt for example, but most are nowhere near that. And, you said it - these companies don't have the margins that people think they do. With...

    SOLD! Set of 5 18" Fuel Trophy wheels in Black with Anthracite rings(non beadlock). These are 18x10's with a -24 offset, and yes that's a negative 24, which is why they have a bit of a lip to them. You will not need to run any spacers with these wheels, as they sit perfectly on a JK! Four of...
