Nice 110. The front bumper looks a bit like the Bowler bumper. Like it.

Leatherman Free T2. For ages and in 90% of the time I have my Leatherman Wave with me. But there are also the situations where I do not have it with me. So I was looking for something smaller more compact for the pocket, but also not too small. So a new EDC knife had to come. Well, already as a child I had a Swiss knife. But back there, nooo, so try something new. Let's see how it performs. So far, it makes a valuable impression to me, it is comparatively lightweight, the additional clip is practical. We will see how it performs in real life.

Last, half a tank of gas. Next, lunch for a lady.

What? The title didn't mention cars. (But the first post did, so let's not derail too much!)

Last, lift kit and shock absorbers for tow rig. Next, bearings, hubs, and tires for tow rig!

Just ordered a new CB radio. This time a President. The new Harrison 2.

After my ancient - yes almost antique, haha - CB radio now makes trouble for the second time. The problem is that it starts to go through the channels like crazy and never stops then again. It is a problem with the front keys and keypad. Last time I took it apart, cleaned everything and re-soldered a few solder joints, then it worked again. Never found the exact fault. This time the procedure didn't work either. Since I don't enjoy this happening to me again while on the road, there is now rather a new one. And that although I'm a big fan of repair and not replace but reliability is more important to me.

Fixing the Jeep myself after a deer jumped out in front of it a month ago, so I had some extra from the insurance payout to buy an Asfir skid plate. Pretty excited for it, plus the other upgrades I'm gonna do to the front end.

A ripstop nylon tarp, some poles, and clippy suction cups to attach it to the teardrop. I don't have a roof rack, so we'll see how this goes as an awning solution.

My previous "solution" was a massive patio umbrella and a bracket that attached it to the trailer tongue when parked. I thought the speed/ease of setup would outweigh the bulk of carrying it around. It did not.

A new 100 AH LiFePO4 battery to replace my old Diy battery that keeps shutting down at the least opportune times like when it is hot and the fridge is full...

Last thing we bought...... a Campervan..
Last year we sold the Land Cruiser for a Rav4 to pull the camper trailer. But we want to go on longer trips, travel a little ligher and faster.. So we ordered a new Sunlight Cliff 640 Adventure. I guess I found a new spot for the OB badge =)

Bought a very compact battery powered soldering iron today. I have a gas-powered soldering iron, but the battery-powered is really easier to take on a trip, because it is easy to charge on USB outlet. Cool.
