    That recipe sounds delicious. However, this serving suggestion alone will make anything taste better.

    Mountain biking

    To heap even more options onto your dilemma see gravel bikes. They are kinda a middle point between mountain and road bikes.

    Mountain biking

    I recommend that you rent a few before you make a decision and go ride on terrain that you typically want to ride. Some bike shops will credit you the rental fees you paid to them towards the purchase of a bike. You could rent two different types of bikes for you and your wife to test ride and...

    induction cooking?

    Just did a little test. This is very similar to the NuWave cooker I have. I set it to the lowest wattage of 600W and a Medium setting which the display claims to be 275F. I plugged it into a Kill-A-Watt and at those settings it was pulling ~850W. So, yes. Your advice sounds spot on with what I'm...

    Vancouver Island Rally

    Understood. My wife and I took our Hummer onto Vancouver Island years ago and camped our way along 19 up to Campbell River. A few years after that we backpacked the West Coast Trail. Love Vancouver Island. Cheers.

    induction cooking?

    Just wondering who out there is using and induction cooktop? I see Amazon has a deal on the Jackery 1000 right now and it looks like this thing might be able to power a single burner induction stovetop I have. Anyone have experience with such a setup?

    Hi, Dave. Just curious if this came together this summer or if plans are still in the works. Cheers from WA.

    Does the app receive support requests?

    Thanks, Kent. FWIW I'm also a software developer. I've done a very little bit of mobile app dev, but most of my experience is in backend databases, app/web servers, messaging, networking, etc. Please let me know if there's any way I could help even if its just beta testing new features or...

    Does the app receive support requests?

    I rarely ever check the support request thread here on the forums, but would love to help out others who may be nearby and need some help. My question is whether or not the app displays those support notifications. If not, could it be made to do so? Ideally I'd like to be able to select part of...

    Maybe it's "Poke Bowl" and the meat is actually tuna.

    Opinions on Warn vs Come Up vs Badland?

    Trying to research winches a bit. This is for my 1996 AM General Hummer. I have the stock, non-winch bumper and would like a solution that contains the winch entirely behind the front bumper and doesn't reduce my approach angle. Any thoughts, feelings, or cautionary tales to share? Thanks...

    Anyone else have a General Motors Six-Point-Five turbodiesel?

    Just wondering how many GM 6.5TD rigs are overlanding out there. I spelled it out longhand in this thread's title because the forum's search function tells me that the terms "GM" and "6.5" are too short and therefore weren't searched for. My rig is a 1996 AM General Hummer with the GM 6.5TD...

    looking for a fuel pressure test port fitting

    My 1996 Hummer (GM 6.5 TD) came with this brass fitting in its fuel line for attaching a fuel pressure tester. Does anyone know where I can find another one of these? Thanks, -Matt

    Anyone using Ride Dog?

    Yeah, I don't think their product offers anything in the sense of "theft prevention." It's more like "theft detection," but that doesn't sound as cool. In the places where people use offroad vehicles I wonder how reliable the cell tracking is. A thief who knows to look for this type of system...

    Anyone have a portable, cordless vacuum you'd recommend?

    Looking for something that could perhaps sit in a charger for my wife's Subaru and be a quick, cordless way of vacuuming out the car. Would be nice if it could tuck away and charge on 12v car power. Anyone have something you'd recommend? Thanks!
