    Wheel/Tire recommendations for Isuzu NPR?

    @rruff I don't think Boreas gets their panels from StyroMax, or at least when I asked them if I could order a different thickness they said no. I plan to assemble everything myself following StyroMax's techniques. I'd love to do a passthrough to the cab using a custom Breezer window, but the...

    Wheel/Tire recommendations for Isuzu NPR?

    @Korey H , we live a pretty analog life. I tried to post on IG (@TandemFamily) and Facebook for our first sabbatical (bicycle touring with six kids). I learned that social media isn't my thing, but I did enjoy making an short film that played around the world. However, I do love to connect...

    Wheel/Tire recommendations for Isuzu NPR?

    Thanks for the thoughts. I can order the super single rim in any size. 3800 lbs is about the max capacity of LT tires I've seen, but 19.5 tires can carry 6k+. I wonder if a 20" wheel/tire at max capacity would ride better than a 19.5" at 1/2 capacity and lower psi? Boreas stocks panels in...

    Anyone heard of Topolo RV?

    Hey all, I found a reasonable source for panels in the US if you want to build your own box. Check out Boreas Campers and Boreas Composites. They stock 5’ x 13’ panels, and they can order larger custom sizes. They ship everything in from Australia. https://www.boreascompositepanels.com/

    COOPER DISCOVERER - "Do you mind if I bring my kids?" part 2 of 2 Back in Nairobi we had a joyful rendezvous when my 78 year-old mother and my two, five and eight year-old boys arrived at the airport, then we began the next phase of our adventure. We hired two drivers to take us...

    COOPER DISCOVERER - "Do you mind if I bring my kids?" part 1 of 2

    (ring, ring) “Hello?… Where?… Great, that sounds awesome. How many days is it?… Ok, count me in; just one more question: do you mind if I bring my kids?… Excellent. By the way I have six kids, age two to fourteen.” Six Kids and Five Weeks in Africa Kilimanjaro My whole life I have been...
