    7 years around Africa in a Landy :: African Wildlife Films :: roamingyak

    Ha, can't have everything, but you can travel Africa in 2023 with a 1990's era vehicle and early 1900's technology. ??? Love your newest video. Can't wait to see the next one, especially the skeleton coast. Fun fact, you've showed a picture of Burkina Faso, and my wife has been there once or...

    7 years around Africa in a Landy :: African Wildlife Films :: roamingyak

    I like your videos. They are different, and that what makes them interesting to me. Beautiful scenery.... Africa is such a beautiful continent. Totally underrated in my opinion. Do you know of Wally Johnson, the last ivory hunter? That's the Africa I'd like to have seen.

    Love your pictures!! That's some pretty cool architecture. Imagine having a corner office on the top level ?

    Our Round-the-World adventure

    Haha, another great example of government overregulation. You can indeed get a higher payload/towing capacity in Germany and changing the suspension is just one thing. You'll also need to have the correct axle weight rating. And then you'll need a paper from the manufacturer, saying that this is...

    Our Round-the-World adventure

    Beautiful pictures and stories, very inspirational. This is a bucket list item for sure!! We only live once and it's a perfect example of preferring dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery. Free men, roaming the earth, embracing other cultures. We can learn so much from each other. Thank you so...

    It is, and it will give you a peace of mind because you can instantly see the weight and don't have to calculate. I got mine at Summit Racing but they do consumer direct if you are interested: Weigh Safe Trailer Hitches | Towing Peace of Mind (weigh-safe.com) Worth the money.

    Had a quick tow yesterday. Worked out beautifully and both the RAM as well as the trailer handled like a dream.

    The Status of Overlanding Today

    Interesting topic. Overlanding..... such a cool name. I think people tend to overthink stuff like this. You want to go from point a to point b and instead of using the interstate you are using backroads. So what's the big deal?! It's not rock crawling, it's not a rally, it's not desert racing...

    2024 RAM 1500 REV

    Here's some news.... and it seems like people at Stellantis have more common sense that I gave them credit for. Have a look at their RAM 1500 REV truck: Ram 1500 REV | First-Ever Ram Electric Truck (ramtrucks.com) Now this makes way more sense, just like what Ford did. In that color...

    Love Nitto Tires

    That's what we have now. Back in OK it might have been 70/30 but it really doesn't matter I think, we never went rock crawling. Find the right tire pressure, make sure your alignment it good and the Ridge can get you further than 73K miles. And I think the price difference is less than $5/tire...

    Love Nitto Tires

    Cheap tires fix the problem right now, but most cheap solutions won't last too long. The tires would have made it even longer, but I'm sure the accident and the dry rot didn't help. You are welcome. Since over a decade we use nothing but Nitto, and I only had bad luck with one model, which was...

    Love Nitto Tires

    Repost, first one was in the wrong forum, sorry. A few days ago, our truck needed new tires and at first I was upset, because I have bought the Nitto Tire USA Ridge Grappler only 4yrs ago. But then I realized they've safely driven us around for over 73,000 miles and I think that is remarkable...

    Dogs in truck bed under camper shell?

    Thank you. Yes, she's a beauty....and a @#$%^&* (sometimes) ? Perhaps my explanation was/is confusing, but we are indeed looking for a solution while traveling. We won't ever leave an animal in a car and leave that area! We'll either go camping or look for a motel/hotel that allows pets. A...

    Dogs in truck bed under camper shell?

    Thank y'all for your replies so far. Yes, all the space in the cab is occupied. Unfortunately our Laramie came as 5-seater, otherwise putting Misty on the rear bench might have worked. Speaking of Misty; she's a 5yr old Anatolian/German Shepherd mix. She lived with a guy that later became...

    Dogs in truck bed under camper shell?

    I've seen online conversations about having dogs in the truck bed under a camper shell, or -topper, or -caps or whatever they are called in your region. Initially we wanted to get a SUV again but with the 2021 Durango being $55K and the 2022 Wagoneer being $78K we have decided to keep our 2018...

    What do you use for a truck gun?

    Always a pistol on my person. If I choose to take a long gun with, I rely on my Marlin 336 or Ruger AR556.
