There are certain things that to quell any superstitions, you just don’t say. These “unmentionables”, are phrases that can turn an average day into a torrential downpour of unfortunate events. Examples would include any of the following; “what could go wrong”, “we won’t need the spare”, “I hope...

Not just anyone can have an adventure these days. Long gone are the times when you could head out on the weekend with a few friends and a case of beers to enjoy the outdoors and escape the monotony of every day life. Today you have standards to uphold, requirements to meet, and gear lists to...

Summer brings many things in Arizona; long days of sunshine, relentless heat, monsoon rains, and of course plenty of adventures. With the recent drought thrown into the mix and weeks since our last 36 hour excursion, Chazz Layne and I decided to grab the girls and head for the hills. The plan...

Our first night of sleep back in the teardrop was a deep and restful one, something I was thankful for with the coming pain I was sure to receive this afternoon. You see, in a lapse of judgment I had agreed to take lessons in surfing—a sport in which you greatly benefit from small stature, a...

Simultaneously in the way and out of the way, a treasure trove of abandoned mining sites, springs, camps and panoramic views across three states hides in plain sight along the CANAMEX Corridor only a few hours outside Phoenix and Las Vegas. Like most of Arizona's "sky islands", the...

I'm sure it was already over 100°F/37°C when John and I tossed the last of the gear – and Bodhi, his Jack Russell Terrier – into the back seat and pulled away from his house that Friday morning. Despite being long term Phoenicians – and both driving trucks with AC issues – we were dripping with...

I had this setup when I purchased the trailer however I had zero weight in it for a while. I noticed it was soft but didn't think it would be a huge issue. We just didnt realize how soft. We realized how bad it was after spending our first night in it without the support arms in place. The...

SCT was more than willing to fix anything the trailer needed. The company is awesome and very helpful. Im constantly emailing back and forth asking questions and I always receive a prompt reply. I had cleaned and restuck the liner before heading to SCT so they wouldnt have known the issue. It...

It's ridiculous to be honest. The trailer had a backpack, one duffel, a fridge, and two goal zero panels in it. THATS IT. Its so soft you can stand on the fender and sink it all the way down. I can only conclude that the previous owner had zero weight and had sierra 4x4 go with an insanely soft...

Well done! I love that wheel & tire combo. So clean and utilitarian

This thing is looking really good really fast. Well done!

Well after the last trip, it appears the suspension installed by sierra 4x4 was far too soft. I hoped this would not be the case and made the mistake of not upgrading to So-Cal teardrops suspension. In the middle of Texas the shocks and springs completely compressed until there was literally no...

This thing is so awesome. I remember when you started this build and thinking wow thats more work than I could chew. Now looking at it you would never know how far its come to be so great.

I was really glad to have made it as well. I drove through all night in new mexico in an ice storm to get there but it was worth it. I know the feeling on missed chances :/. Lost my grandparents on my fathers side when I was in middle and highschool. Ill always regret not spending more time...

Just saw this and that trailer is ready to roll and awesome. I think its certainly worth whatever you want to ask. The nightmare and risk with buying one overseas and attempting to import is huge

I actually do miss the T quite often. Ya unfortunately the back seat is a bench so you cant leave one seat in :/. I would keep the T though! Instead of switching vehicles has a canvas top made to buckle to that rack and put the fridge and everything else in there. They're meant to handle that...

Haha we saw plenty of gawkers on this trip to Texas. The battery monitor can be turned off at any time and you can set an alarm to beep when power is low. So far it works perfectly. And for those who have been keeping up with the thread my girlfriends grandfather went under surgery with slim...

Haha I wish but I already bought a teardrop and the sport will be going away soon. Im selling her after christmas :/ Ill be driving a 70 series and it doesnt make sense to have that, a 4runner, and a range rover sport.

The wheels brand new cost less than 1000 plus 400 to ship. :/ I do know of someone looking to buy a set but I doubt they will pay that price. Ill forward them this link and you can try though!

I'll trade you a Range Rover Sport...:sombrero:
