    *Price Drop 01/20: $1650* Hello, all! I've got a Roofnest Sparrow Eye hard shell 2-person tent for sale in the Maryland suburbs of Washington DC. It's a 2018 model, so the new shell design.

    Modifying Awning Mounts? Help me, ExPo engineers.

    So I've been using these Fourtreks awning mounts to secure my ARB awning to the Xterra roof rail. My problem is that, when mounted, the awning being this close to the roof rack prevents me from mounting my Yakima cross bars. I mount my RTT, kayak, and the lifeless bodies of my enemies to the...

    A Brief Foray onto the Olympic Peninsula

    Another local Nissan guy (driving a yellow 1st Gen, El Bandito Amarillo) trekked out to the Olympic Peninsula on the 23rd and 24th to camp and do some high country snow exploration.

    Looking for input from the Nissan snorkel club

    Was it worth it? Would you do it again? Does it afford one the ability to crush his enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their women? I've been on the fence for a while, debating whether it's truly the best way to drop $400. It's wet in western Washington (who...

I'm looking for some practical additions to my winter camping equipment, and am exploring picking one of these up for my Kukenam Sky. I'm just looking for some insight as to whether or not it would be...

    Any Nissan folks heading to Overland Expo West?

    Being that I'm temporarily residing in Arizona, it would be foolish of me to forsake the opportunity to hit up the Overland Expo in Flagstaff. Having previously attended both the Mid-Atlantic Overland Festival and the Vermont Overland Rally and Workshop, I know these events can be fun and...

    Josh's 2014 Xterra Pro 4x - guided by necessity

    Current (November 2017) photo: I bought the Xterra new back in January 2014 and have had it all over the Northeast since then. The build will be slow, with mods being done as they become necessary. All I've done thus far is the addition of stock-sized Duratracs, the Yakima bars, and the Tepui...
