My 94 80 sits at 358,XXX miles and is my DD and only 4 wheeled vehicle. I do about 20,000 a year and have it up in the mountains of Montana camping or eploring every week. Some owners use the piss out of them. But the prices are ridiculous and when it goes i have no idea what i will be able to...

Has anyone also owned the Copper ST Maxx? how do you think these stack up to the Cooper?

They are great. To me if anything they are over built and crazy warm. If i wasn't moving and downsizing i would never sell this one. I hate to think what i will spend to replace it. Premium bags are so expensive. Between my wife and i we had 2 Feathered Friends, a Marmot, 2 Mountain Hardwear all...

PM sent back. I will mark it SPF

This is a top of the line Mountain Hardwear -5 down sleeping bag with high quality 775 fill down and Conduit Storm Light water resistant sell. The 775 fill was the best down on the market at the time. Tis bag has 27 oz of down in it! The SL Conduit shell was their best shell. It packs very well...

Great picture and great trip. When were you out there? I live right in that area May-Oct and know that area very well. It would have been fun to sit down and look at some maps and routes over a few beers.

I think frozen water bottles will work well. The nalgeens were great. Except that as they melted they still took up the same amount of space. It would be nice to be able to crush them down some. Honestly I should probably just bite the bullet buy the MRO40.

What are good ice alternatives for coolers? One of the biggest complaints i hear about coolers is that everything is floating in water. I have a bunch of freezer cold packs that i reuse and use in my crappy coolers. They work OK but honestly we mostly just use it for 1 day outings. So i dont...

I have only been fishing for a few seasons. Went form zero to trying to fish. season 3 now and I am doing really well with Tenkara. Sure I have my slow days. But that is learning. the first year is was happy to catch one or two. My fist catch was "amazing" but some tiny little fish. The second...

I would be all over that. I looked and rei sight does not have the 37qt. How did you get one from them?

Do you have a link to this deal?

I really lile the look of the Engel MRO40F marine fridge. The size is right for me and i like the side open lide. I know Engel is generally good quality. The MRO40 is the only fridge in their line up that looks like it does. How does this one stack up to the other Engels or products like ARB and...

This is the exact way i am going. I dont want to cheap out on this but i am thinking i might be able to reuse some of the passenger side foam. I dont know if that is cheaping out too bad. Any way to inspect and really determine if the foam is at the end of its life?

I have a Hell roaring batt isolator and love it. I saw the Blue Sea 2146 switch that comes with the 7622 and it looks nice. I think it will work fine with my hell roaring system once i figure out the wiring. My question is how does the illumination on it work? The hell roaring switch is super...

Has Engel contacted you back? This is not very encouraging considering i am thinking about a 40qt Engel
