cdthiker makes some excellent points... Please don't go taking antibiotics in the US or even most of North America as your risk of messing things up is more than the risk of infection. Same with closing your wounds yourself, that is how an abscess forms. I have seen plenty go wrong in the...

Spring tensioner on each end of the plastic coated steel cable...all avaliable at Ace Hardware

Ford has had delivery/production issues which sucks as I love my Ecoboost Transit. With my Quadvan 4wd conversion locked front & rear it kicks ass. And as was said before I can get parts/service in US, Mexico, Canada and elsewhere.....and parts are cheap.

depending on if you live in a major metro area or are close I would search Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist using 12v fridge or camping fridge or dometic or norcold. So many people have gotten into and then back out of "overlanding" I have been picking up small fridges at cheap prices and...

How dare you post actual travel reports on Expo...this place is only for builds and then selling those builds. No one here actually travels anymore...oh wait these aren't Expo members so that makes sense. Seriously though it is nice to watch real people get out, and I admit a bit of jealousy...

My cash is ready as soon as I can find a dealer with no additional markup. I want the 1st Edition with all the extra goodies and then it will go to a few choice vendors for extras and immediately into the dirt. Love the look and super excited

Do you still have the rear seats to go with it?

Love my Falkens on my 7800lb 4wd Van. Sand, mud, snow, rocks I just cant kill them and I run chase in Baja pulling trucks out of silt beds.

It is time to let my 23zero 270 Peregrine awning and walls find a new home. The thing is amazing for both shade and warmth when we have our propane firepit inside. The only reason I am selling is that my van is tall and I have to use a short ladder to fold the awning up and my 1 legged self is...

Having know Matt for a while I can honestly say anything bought from him can be trusted to have been well cared for and maintained. I remember crossing paths in Baja and my wife noticed "wow look at that setup" at the same time I thought "I know that rig". It is an iconic build !

Plenty don't have the noisy slick material on the people side of the quilt. I makes noise everytime you move and is chilly against skin resulting in the need for a sheet. Pillows are tough because you want fluffy support that packs. I still have not found a great pillow setup. My wife gets...
