I wasn't sure if I should share the 3rd iteration of our dual battery set-up, but I have received a few emails of folks planning their PanAm drive and I think maybe it is time to share the story of our set-up and some of the issues we had. We have been living (mostly) out of our Landcruiser...

We are currently in the US while our trusty LandCruiser relaxes at an ExPo member's barn in Chile. We are in the US working and visiting family and friends for a few months and should be back on the road after celebrating Turkey day in California... anyways, enough ******** chat. We need to sell a...

Love this Bimobil set up (wish it were on a HiLux :)) A very cool German couple driving around the Americas paragliding. The rig will be for sale in September. They will be asking 20,000 Euro obo. The Bimobil is immaculate inside and I wish I could buy it! If you want to drive around the...

Lacey and I have come to the US for a couple of months to take care of personal stuff, to attend a few events and visit much neglected family and friends. Since my Landcruiser is still in Ecuador some (not many) of you may wonder what am I going to be driving while I am in the US? I know most of...

We need a new external hard drive(s) to replace our ailing and full drives. We are considering the ioSafe rugged external with the following claims: Crush protection up to 5,000 lbs. Drop protection up to 20' Immersion protection up to 30' for 3 days USB 3.0 and USB 2.0, FireWire 800...

I just found it and thought it was kinda interesting.... http://www.grubhubusa.com/ Reminds me of the Coleman.

Isn't it time for a "Definitive Guide to Long Term Solar Setup" sticky thread? Here is why I think it may me time for a stickie... Tons of threads are started by forum members trying to decide how much wattage a solar set up may need, what charge controller to use, is a dual battery...

A review/article on car top camping and a Maggiolina at Gizmodo, thought some of you might be interested in checking it out... http://m.gizmodo.com/5753960/how-to-sleep-on-the-roof-of-your-car

I wanted to start a thread with all the random Cruisers we have spotted on our drive south, please post up pics if you have seen any. (if there is another similar thread I will transfer photos there and delete this one, let me know) The Typical job for Landcruisers around the world is...

I had a bit of a hard time deciding wether i should post this review, but i think it will be helpful for someone on the fence about spending 25 bucks on one pair of underwear. I had a hard time coughing up $25 for a pair of underwear, but if you take a step back and think about it; underwear is...

So as some of you know the stock headlights on the FJ60 are a bit of a joke as far as candlepower goes. Before driving to Panama we replaced the headlights with Hella's, which work quite well; however, they are not sealed and sure enough after a couple of relatively deep river crossings we had...

I will refine the question: In order to create internet quality video content (in other words no 1080 quality needed) what would be the best budget option: a good point and shoot, a Flip Mino style dedicated camcorder, a higher end camcorder dedicated for mounting (such as the Hero), or a true...

Long story short- A fellow MUD member gave me this link to a very interesting pop up manufacturer in Germany. Exkab. Check out the website gallery, I could not figure out how to link pics with their setup....

While in Costa Rica we could not pass up a visit to Paul Pilgrim owner of Pilgrim Restorations. He is pretty well known in some circles for making body parts for Landcruisers from scratch. Just like we visited Proffits, Specter, TLC and other Landcruiser places in our travels we had to check...

Funny story: we go visit Paul Pilgrim, a fairly well known Landcruiser body tub manufacturer based out of San Jose, Costa Rica. First, I drool over all his work and then we sit down and chat. After a while we go check out my Landcruiser and the first thing he does is grab HIS keys, walk over to...

Opera Trailer Interesting specs on this trailer. More of a Rolls Royce than anything else... Ceramic toilet, coated teak floor and veranda, finishing in oak, corian and stainless steel. Nevermind the outrageous price-tag.

This is not an expedition vehicle, but I thought it might be of interest. We attended a mud bogging competition in Crooked Tree, Belize and saw this nice Range Rover with a Mitsubishi Fuso 4 cylinder engine. I spoke with the owner for a while and he is very happy with the swap, he said it was...

Well, I am a Landcruiser guy always have been always will be, but I have a very soft spot for Land Rover. I had my fill of Land Rover pørn when I somehow wound up at the Rover Owner's Association of Virginia annual Mid Atlantic Rally. Great event and the ROAV guys are great hosts... here are...

I went to SEMA last year and tried out the Pico chairs at the Disabled Explorers booth, needless to say I bought two Pico chairs for our little adventure. They are very practical and comfortable; however, after maybe 3 months of use one of them broke and to make things worse the second one...
