    Camp Chairs

    I'm officially in the market for a new camp chair or two. I have been using my trusty tommy Bahama Costco chairs for well over a decade. Was camping recently and everyone had a nice chair except for me so I want to upgrade. I have a $100 gift certificate to REI that I got for xmas so my intent...

    How are you communicating on the trail or on the road?

    I went with Midland MXT275 because of how popular it is. Affordable-ish, works well and can be delivered to your door via amazon overnight. Everyone I wheel with has one, or another GMRS. It's just simple. I don't have a desire or need for anything more than that. On the rare occasion someone...

    Atl-atl's Alaskan 650si documentation thread!!

    You in So Cal now? Pretty sure the first pic of the camper on the trailer is at my exit in San Diego. Edit: Ah, I see you picked up at TCG.

    If you drove a EV truck, with a camper top

    This is literally only something an EV owner would be upset about.

    Expedition Family Truck- almost new, 20k miles and top notch components [Price drop!]

    What a cool design. I wish I had the desire/balls to take my kids on the road like that for long periods of time lol

    Ford Takes @ $20 BILLION ‘Write Down’ and Dumps the EV F-150 Lightning

    The lightning was a horrible idea from the get go. I am shocked it was around for this long even. Good job Ford, get back to doing what they always do and bring back the REAL lightning truck.

    2001 Dodge Dakota Superduty Chassis swap camping rig build

    So awesome. What's your background? Daunting work if you ask me! I dont think I'd be able to pull off this kind of thing.

    An unremarkable XJ

    Awesome! When I was in high school looking for my first car I would have given my left nut for an XJ. I wanted an XJ with a rubicon express lift so dang bad. They're so awesome. Nice find!

    Older Rig with upgrades vs Newer Truck near stock?

    I had a 4.6L in my 98 and that thing lasted forever. 256k when I finally had to sell it. Rear end blew up for the 3rd time. Motor still ran fine.

    Older Rig with upgrades vs Newer Truck near stock?

    An F150 is going to have better road manners in stock form. Once you put on a level kit like Fox or bils, you'll lose some road manners for better off road. The absolute best suspension mod I have done, and people will back me on this, is removing the rear block and getting some deavers. Will...

    Older Rig with upgrades vs Newer Truck near stock?

    If I am going to have my kids and my wife with me, I would go with reliability and safety over everything else. 5.0 over Ecoboost in my opinion.

    Holy cow! Have these guys really gone mainstream! 😳

    Smart play by Ineos and cool to see. I saw one at my local Costco just the other day. The focus here shouldn't be on the "discount". It's only a partnership, no real discount given buying it at Costco because it is not Costco's inventory. The focus here is the visibility the new make/model is...
