    Weston Platinum Oval side rails- Beware

    You should reach out, maybe they'll do the right thing, but either way they oughta know about it. You can't be the only person dealing with it...

    End of the Oregon Trail Meet Up- West Linn, OR

    Fingers crossed next time we get something other than just a bunch of Toyotas...(insert winking smiley face emoticon here so everyone knows I'm joking, but also I don't believe in using emoticons so here's this string of text instead)

    Perhaps our next meet-up can be beer-friendly (safely, of course). I'm not saying beer helps me talk to strangers, but... no, wait, that is what I'm saying!

    Didn't get to talk to as many folks as I would have liked, but it was still a good time and an impressive turnout! Thanks again @OregonTrail4runner.

    What Camp Saw Do You Use? (Non-powered hand saws)

    I've got a Silky Gomboy folding saw, but I haven't actually had an opportunity to test it yet. It's only got a 9.5" blade, so it would be tough with big stuff. Still, it's compact enough that I can keep it in the rig at all times, safely out of sight.

    Overland specific pricing

    https://www.outsideonline.com/2141871/worlds-best-tuque Here's hoping the folks collecting the raw materials are getting a big chunk of that $200. Sheesh.

    Top items people carry

    I think it requires a separate thread, and maybe only applies to folks who daily drive their "overland" rigs, but I'm curious what everyone's "every day carry" looks like (not referring to guns here). Obviously, the gear you haul for a long overland trip is much different than what you keep in...

    Interstate 90 Advice

    Nice! We'll definitely be passing thru Spokane, and our traveling partners have a stop planned there to see family anyway... Maybe we can hook up then. I'll keep you posted as I firm up the dates.

    Interstate 90 Advice

    Hey All- I make an annual trip to Sheridan, Wyoming (from PDX) to visit family, and this year I'm hoping to incorporate a bit of camping/exploring along the way. I'd love any rec's for easy trails and good campsites within an hour or so of Interstate 90, on the stretch between Coeur d'Alene and...

    Grilling Options

    Holy cow, that's awesome!

    Overland specific pricing

    True, scale certainly matters, and there is absolutely value in well made, responsibly produced "boutique" gear; I certainly don't begrudge the craftspeople their due. Hell, I haven't set foot in a WalMart in over a decade, and I love the expensive gadgets and gear in spite of myself... My point...

    What portable air are you using in your rig?

    I could be wrong, but it might be hard to find a decent option under $100.00. I spent $130 or so on the Viair 300P, which is rated up to 33" tires... Cheaper options would probably be hard pressed to fill a 35" tire.
