I dug around here a bit, but couldn't find anything on point. What would be the safest way to make a Blue Sea fuse block ignition hot? Could someone provide some directions? I have zero wiring experience and will most likely turn to a buddy to assist me. In my mind I can see wiring the fuse...

Not a repair job, but I couldn't resist posting. Click here for news article. 'Duct Tape Bandit' Hits Kentucky Liquor Store Robbery is a serious problem for retail stores across our region. But the employees of Shamrock Liquors in Ashland, Kentucky, can't stop laughing about what happened...

What pack do you have?

Very nice. I'm up north in Fairfax County.

Any chance you can post some pictures of the truck in the background? Where abouts in Virginia are you located?

I used to have a subscription to Shutterbug Magazine.

I got a couple of behind the seat organizers for all those little things: http://www.caselogic.com/back_seat_organizer/product_detail/index.cfm?modelid=57181

A simple mount I made for my shovel:

Offroad Solutions carries them and the rocker switch mounts too, scroll down and look under "Electrical Parts."

Your RV-4 with the enclosed "porch" looks great. I have an Oztent "Microfast" MI-4 that I got a couple of years ago, works great but I understand the "MI" series tents have been discontinued.

Save the taco "This day started out with a rescue mission. There was a Toyota Tacoma with 5 inches of lift (or 9 inches depending on who the borrower was talking to) on 35 inch tires that had become swamped after trying to cross Dry River (Dry Run on the maps). The water level was high from a...

Replace it. New rope is cheap and I bet alot lighter.

Here's my Camillus knife I've had since I bought it new in late 1981. It's a great knife that I still use.

I had a CB and 2m VHF Antennex mounted on my front TJM with zero issues. I've even seen some trucks running non-groundplane antennas on their bumpers. Currently my VHF antenna is on a hood lip mount on the driver's side; again no problems. I may eventually move it back to the front bumper...

It varies depending on the activity and weather conditions.

Those MSR bladders just might be what I'm looking for, thanks for the link.

Does anyone have a source for hydration bladders larger than 3.0 liters? I'm looking for a bladder in the 6-8 liter range. With the benefit of my morning coffee, I realized I could just carry a second 3 liter bag. However I need to check my new pack to see if that's a possibility. Thanks.

Are you interested in a new or used truck? If a used 4Runner is on your list, might I suggest a 3rd Gen with a stock rear E-Locker installed. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the '99 or '00 was the last year for this option.

Don't forget your first aid kit and the knowledge on how to use it.

Sounds like a good plan. Have you ever seen the smile on someone's face and gratitude from a total stranger when you have stopped to help change a tire or jumpstart their battery? Smalls things like that can make a big difference in someone else's life.
