You can always tell a new father. Any chance to show off photos... Nice shot Mark!

Thats what I'm saying! I would build the 60. Classic look, ultra reliable and easy to work on (unless you do some crazy engine swap). Keep it simple.

Now that is cool!! My wife would love that.

Bling was the short way of saying : we realized that after all the years we've spent backpacking and camping, do we really need a solar powered fridge? It would've been just bling for us. It sounded really cool though!! What really mattered was that we like the Horizon and it's basic features...

We talked about it and gave it some thought and realized that the fridge and solar was more "bling" than we really want. So we're gonna go with a basic Horizon and tent. Can't wait to place the order and get that bad-boy here!

I've been talking with Martyn and we're getting ready to pull the trigger on a Horizon with 1800 tent and fridge with solar system. The fridge sliding out the rear was the reason we we're going with the Horizon. The cargo boxes on the sides are also great. Should be placing the order in the next...

I used to backpack and hike like crazy, pretty much every weekend before marriage and after marriage. Then along came Zoe and I haven't been backpacking in 5 years and only short hikes few and far between. She's 5 now and we have started to take small hikes together, backpacking will be in the...

I'm not a part of Tucson Offroad, but seeing this, I think I will look into them. I caught this link on another forum and thought I would spread the good news. Jake (trailbus) and I have hauled quite a bit of garbage out from there in the past.

Tucson Offroad club/forum has officially adopted the Chiva trail and are holding a dedication and trail cleanup this weekend. http://www.tucsonoffroad.proboards107.com/index.cgi?board=localruns&action=display&thread=1187925961 This is a nice trail and very popular in the Tucson area. It see's...

Hootis LOL, I remember that thread from a couple years ago. Wasn't it on some Ford forum? Long story short, guy was applying liner and needed to pee. Somehow got liner from gloves onto ...thats right, the hootis. LOL

floating around here somewhere is a pic or 2 of my rig. I used Durabak on the sides and hood. Make sure to use the UV stuff. It costs more but will hold up better.

My tools that are in my rig at all times...standby, this may take some time. :oops:

I have a Powertank, but after I purchased it I found out these are cheaper and just as good quality http://www.ultimate-air.com/

I feel that air is important and therefore I have 3 options in my rig at all times. I have a 10lb Co2 tank which cost me $14 per fill at the local fire protection supplier ( United Fire on 4th ave for those in Tucson). Thats the fastes option but I tend to save it for things like reseating...

I really like Dana Designs packs. I started out with a Jansport internal frame, lets just say it had a lot of quality issues and after 2 years was replaced with a Dana. I've had the Dana for about 8-10 years now. Pricey, but worth it. I bought it at Summit Hut in Tucson, where the staff will...

I just picked up 10000 .12g orange ABS airsoft pellets. $21 and change at Paintball HQ here in Tucson. Thats 240g per tire (5 tires) which is equal to 8.4oz. I'll let you all know how they work out after I test em.

I think I'mm gonna do the airsoft pellets. I have a ton of weights on my rims and everytime I wheel they get more unbalanced. I've been thinking about it for a while, time to step up.

I didn't vote cause I have a lunchbox in the rear and a selectable in the front. Good combo on my rig.

I love piggies! :wings: Nice find, congrats.
