    Death Valley, Eureka Dunes Damage

    Whoa- cmon man, you cannot possibly be serious with your comment. You and people that think as you do are the reason that I have maintained since the beginning of these forums that overlanding is not, nor should be for, everyone. You need to stay home and watch TV.

    Controlled drugs & full time

    Dotting the final is and crossing the final ts. My wife is reliant on pre gabelin for her neck issues. Her prescription is 90 days and strictly regulated. How are refills dealt with after the first 90 days if we are changing locations. The prescription can be filled once, for example in...

    Advice Needed: 3rd Gen 4Runner or Jeep Wrangler JKU

    How much is he asking for the Toyota? 60k in mods? Over the years or has it been completely rebuilt recently? Still, 60 k in mods or 60 k in mods & repairs/maintenance? Sorry, I can’t get over that 60k number unless it has all been completely rebuilt.

    Wow! The family is full of very pushy advice.

    We are definitely the “ outsiders “ in our families. My parents deaths only made us more outside. Except one brother, our relationship has flourished! My wife’s family? Deaths will only make that dysfunction worse. Good luck !

    Wow! The family is full of very pushy advice.

    Last evening after all the festivities were consumed and things began to get normal, our daughter began taking us to task. We sat quietly, reminded here that this is a conversation and not a lecture, and had a conversation that was getting a bit heated. After a few more words, when things...

    Offroad Recovery Gear Questions

    If you are on a budget, be sure to check out straps, ropes & shackles at Tractor Supply. All of my extraction equipment, except the winch, is from Tractor Supply at a fraction of the cost that 4x shops charge for the same stuff.

    that’s exactly what I said to our daughter- for the first time in our lives we are doing something for ourselves.

    Wow! The family is full of very pushy advice.

    Ya, there is a 50-50 split on that one- daughter and son in law, say spend it all, we're good. The other daughter had a revolving door well into her early 40s, that revolving door will be gone and I think she is uncomfortable with that. The rest of the inlaws fear their own farts, so there is...

    Wow! The family is full of very pushy advice.

    We’ve reminded both daughters that we will more than likely be spending more time with them than ever before because we will have the freedom to do so, instead of being tied down to a house that we have to pay people to take care of while we are away from it. The parental units? The old boy is...

    Wow! The family is full of very pushy advice.

    truth, we don’t take it personally, mentally my wife broke away from her family nearly 4 decades ago, married me and began living her own life. Now it’s physical and we are once again, impinging upon their comfort level. We all have different definitions of freedom. There’s that and the...

    Wow! The family is full of very pushy advice.

    Merry Christmas Everyone! The time is fast approaching for us to order our 4WD camper, to sit atop our 350 soon to be, flatbed, sell our home and be on the road full time by around May with a 3-5 year run. If we really like it and our health stays good, maybe longer. Yikes, as this time...

    F350 CCSB

    Agreed. We started in Jeeps, then a Rubicon in 04, then 11 years ago into a Landcruiser. The Rubi and the Cruzer were/are capable of traversing 99.5% of all legal roads/trails/tracks in North America, in the world for that matter. We now have a 22ft long f350 which as your Ram, will be able...

    Viair hose extension

    Interestingly enough the quick connect on the pump is a common 1/4" M size. I went to the local hardware store, bought a good 20ft rubber airline, two female quick connects and a new locking air chuck. the old plastic coil line is in the trash. I never did trust that line. Thats nice...

    New Build for Full Time old duffers.

    Rear seat delete platform is installed; I’m building the cat abode and the cabinets as modules for ease of installation and removal. A flat 13 gallon water tank will be installed beneath the platform. Our old reliable Engle fridge will be mounted so it is within easy reach of my navigator...

    Viair hose extension

    I’m looking for a simple, yet reliable hose extension for my 400p. Ive my own hair brain ideas which would entail doing away with the cheapo plastic line and making my own and doing away with the inaccurate gauge. Thoughts?

    What do you think are really good tires for most off road ventures

    That’s all I ever used until my tire guy suggested I give the Generals a try. I did and am on my second set, got 50k plus miles out of the first set. My new truck came with Goodyear Duratrac MTs. I’m noticing a trend as a long time ago, my grandpa told me to stick with the three Gs and you...

    2024 Ford F350 Tremor

    Thats what I've come to the conclusion of as well as we just arent' gonna be going to the same kindof places the cruzer got us to. , the damn things would have to weigh 3-400 lbs to do any good.
