    dodge 2500 as GLOBAL expedition rig?

    New truck prices are insane, but trying to take a 10-20 year old truck with between 100k and a quarter million miles on it and making it 100% is time consuming, when I was younger I drove old stuff because I was broke. It was never the engine( not counting timing chains/belts and...

    Ram 5500 is here

    Awesome truck, a 5500 is my next truck too. I have USAA too, I wonder what the issue was? I have a Ram 2500 now with them, I just assumed a 3500 or bigger would be no sweat Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Alaskan Camper '84/'14 Build Thread

    Thanks! I have built up a nice shop over several decades. (Typically I spend my toy money on tools) Self taught, but pretty picky standards :), i started with machining(lathe and mill) and wood is easy after working to .001”, although finishing (stains etc) is a whole science that I’m still...

    Alaskan Camper '84/'14 Build Thread

    Thanks for the kudos and Festool Tips, I do need a better jigsaw. The way I have the ARB set-up, it runs on 110 when I’m plugged into shore power, but DC otherwise. The Magnum inverter has a 110 sensing relay that opens when no input power available. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Full Size Truck Sliders, Weld or Bolt On and Flatten Pinch Weld or Not?

    My only input would be a question, which is easier to fix if you mangle the sliders? I keep saying I’m going to replace my body mount factory steps with something better, but it never rises to the top of the list. I don’t need full blown sliders (I hope) ‘12 2500 Hemi with Alaskan on back Sent...

    Unique Overland Truck For Sale

    Not so sure what you are doing here really meets the intent of the forum. Is it for sale right now? If so how much? Not sure why people are allowed to join up to sell something, even if it’s a really cool vehicle. Next thing you know a car salesmen will be able to join to shill a pick-up...

    Very, very nice. I liked the music too. Probably the only video I have played recently not on Mute. Scenery like that make one feel small..... really small Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Really cool. Did he send any in progress pics that you can share? Hope you get a lot of fun out of it. Side note, as a guy that grew up on the East coast I had never experienced big wild fires . I hiked Glacier National Park with some friends this summer, and there were several fires. You and...

    Amphibious RV

    That’s pretty cool, but the wheel base would really limit the places it could go in any terrain other than flat, and in snow all the wheels would end up off the ground( think sled) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Camp Chef Mountaineer Stove

    I read a review online somewhere ( may even have been a Expo article on stoves) and it wasn’t that favorable, sharp edges and lousy welds, I would spend the extra 100 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
