I ordered one last week. Seems like a great solution for my JK. They have been making high quality stuff for years, so I decided to try it. Only problem is they are 3-4 weeks backed up. Once you look at what $ it takes to carry a reasonable amount of fuel in rotopax, this seems like a solid...

Latest I hear is they are trying to get tourists to stop coming to Sedona. So you may want to check the status of that. Campendium will have listings for Sedona. There are nice areas west of town off FS 525. Very large area open to dispersed camping. The deeper N and W you go the nicer and more...

I was going to post about using screen and magnets to cover a window for ventilation. Now I realize how lame it is as compared to your elegant solution. Nice job!

Honestly, everyone will have a different answer. Some trips need to be pushed hard to fit in the time allowed. My big goal is to get more time so I don't need to rush as much. I would often come back from an adventure exhausted from trying to fit everything in. I would suggest several things...

2-5 gal Scepter water cans. Nemo Helio water bag for showers, dishes. Fill camelbaks and cary a couple gallon jugs of drinking water. Also carry a water filter that I never really need. I keep thinking I need more capacity, but it is just 2 of us and usually able to find a resupply long before...

We had been camping as a family from my earliest memories. Grade school was spent camping out in the woods next to our home with friends all summer long. HS graduation happened and the next day I took off with my (still) best friend. We left for a month in his "63 chevy pick up with a topper...

Taylor GS Mini. Smaller sized, sounds good enough to gig on. I have tried some of the smaller Martin backpacker and such. This works best for me. If you are just starting and looking to save space, a Uke might be something to think about. Plus they are inexpensive.

We use the Cleanwaste system. Wife approved!

ARB 37 qt. Honestly love everything about it. It has been a game changer for camping. I too have a JK, sometimes I wish it was bigger, but then it would be bigger and take up more room. Mine runs 24/7.

Just a thought. Make sure you are comparing the actual height of the tires. Most tires are not as tall as the sidewall numbers would suggest. When I was shopping, I discovered that the 34"s I ended up with (Nitto ridge Grappler ) were taller than some other tires marketed as 35"

Deep dish pepperoni pizza on the skottle. Dough from scratch. It's amazing

Hurricane creek/Max Patch is in that region and quite popular

HB, I'm interested in this. Could use more details. Thanks!

Hello all, long time lurker, decided to finally join. Long time back road explorer, hiker,mountain biker. Looking to get further off road. Currently running a 2016 JK Rubicon and a 2016 ford transit set up as a camper. Eagerly awaiting my Hiker off road trailer. Looks like a great group. Glad to...

I'm about 2.5 hours south if you need it. I'd love to sit and look at your Hiker while waiting for mine to get built!

And Wiggle was never heard from again...wait...is that banjo music??

Right on! Safe travels

One thing I have heard, if you change from wire to synthetic, make sure all the burs on your drum are removed. Cable can chew up your drum a little, the new line might not like that. $.02 CF

Thanks for the input. I just sent the deposit in yesterday! only 11 months to go. First State, I did enjoy checking out your rig at Expo East this year. I had rented a mid range Hiker for a test run down to the Biltmore. Kind of excited.

Hello all, I'm about to pull the trigger on a Hiker 5x9 off road. I have the proposal in front of me. Couple of questions for Hiker owners, why would you get a 5x8 over a 5x9? Is there any real drawback to the 5x9 (other than extra$$). Also, how do you guys like the swing away tire carrier? Is...
