    Favorite Camp Meal

    Congratulations, Fwiw, we prepare and freeze a day or two before we're set to leave. Chili, spaghetti, soup, I love to grill, premake (spices)burgers/chicken etc. If we're several days we limit fresh fruits and vegetables, but in a pinch canned vegetables. Pbj's, sliced ham and cheese...

    Any Ridgeline Owners Here?

    It has a pretty decent payload, maybe the bed is not camper friendly? I see them fairly often, but none with a camper or camper shell for that matter.

    News Flash! Americans don't want expensive and unreliable cars😳

    No defense here, just noting, the jeep wrangler 6 speed manual comes stock with 3:21 , 3:73 and 4:10 is standard in the Rubicon. I can understand your anemic comment.

    Map Tool With Distance Slider

    Early on, I was calling tech support daily, however, I don't use or know if that feature is available. When I'm plotting a course I generally use Google maps, when I get to an interesting area or county for camping or a primitive area I use onX. Hope that helps.

    Ford E350 XLT - rear right brake keeps getting stuck.

    Could be the rotors warped and calipers are grabbing and getting hot and sticking. How many miles on the rotors? Are the axle bearings lubed by the differential oil?

    Goin' Potty Bag

    Looks like it's missing a crucial part 😕

    Thinking of selling my rig.....

    There's a lot of options, but, 4 full full size humans and all their stuff ,square footage will be about the same in a large camper. Have you given any thought to a 3/4-1 ton full size van, extended box, pop top? A van will give you more power to pull a little gear trailer. Food for thought.

    Reasonable Mods For Carrying Heavy Things

    Don't know for sure and I can't prove it. 90% of trucks carrying slide in campers or ancient treasures are, at or over gvw. Seems like there's a bit of semantics involved. Edit: dump the camper, fill the bed with gold.

    Binoculars

    One time hunting in California mid 80s, I found a pair mm1050?, when get home I'll look a little closer for the model number, they were laying in the middle of the road a hundred yards away and the sun was reflecting of the front lenses, couldn't believe my luck. I did put a lost and found ad...
