It will be a cast iron diff. My H3 has a front locker from the factory and it has held up great. Like any ifs diff, easy on the skinny pedal

Maybe the name of the trail is taken too literally.

This could tie into the negatives of "overlanding becoming trendy". Draws in some of the people who don't really appreciate it

Well, they got what they deserved. Stuff like this gets trails closed

True. People who don't truly love it will drizzle out because doing something you don't truly enjoy becomes difficult to keep up

I think overlanding itself has not necessarily become trendy but certainly the gear has. Car camping has been around and a lot of overlanding goes hand in hand with just off-roading. But throwing the label "overlanding" on it and having all this specific gear for overlanding has made everything...

My Great Pyrenees takes up the entire second row. So I don't even count it as cargo space. We sleep in the RTT and the giant sleeps in the backseat. The two little dogs sleep in the front seats. No way to get the big dog into the RTT, plus he is afraid of Ramps and bridges

Had a list, waited til the show for some savings

I had a friend get some stuff for me since I couldn't be there. Lots of savings. I saved over $200 on things in my 4WP Shopping Cart

Thanks man! Yeah, I spent a little last year. Gonna ask a friend to spend some for me this year. Want him to place an order for an ARB bumper for the back of the Hummer, some OME leafsprings.....the list goes on. it's like a candy store for us 4x4 guys

Our club (Diablo4Wheelers) does security for the event. I won't make it to the event this year (honeymoon) but you get good deals and see a lot of cool rigs, mostly Jeeps but not just Jeeps.

I think a lot of vehicles have a sweet spot, same for mine. Big diff between over 70 and under 70

Given what's available now, my choice for a NEW vehicle would be a Colorado ZR2 with the baby Duramax

Yeah. I flew to Arizona from the SF Bay Area to pick mine up and drove back. Was looking specifically for the Adventure Package. Lots of H3s without lockers being sold around me. Have to search hard for one with a rear locker let alone two

I feel the same way!!! Rare indeed, especially Alpha models with front and rear lockers.

V8s were available in the "Alpha" package from 2008-10. Stronger front diff also. Front locker was added 2009-10. The V8 H3s came with 4.10 gears instead of 4.56s which came with the 5cyls. There isn't much power loss jumping to 35s until you're climbing steep grades on the highway.

Didn't want to post til I had more averaged data, 2010 Hummer H3 Alpha 5.3 V8, 35" KO2s. Highway I usually get 13-15 going ~70mph. City and trail I would say between 10-12. Also notice mpg drops noticeably with RTT on, also drops when using E85 instead of regular gasoline.

Welcome!! Yes, that is you in the beginning. Glad you found us and hope to see you on the trails soon

I usually just do sausage dogs on the skottle. Doesn't take long.....skillet or grill works too. Sausages are already cooked and just need to be heated up.
