    Arizona Backcountry Discovery Route ( AZBDR )

    I was literally just in Benson last week and had cancel my BDR due to work. Nice to see this. Like the pizza cutters on the Taco. What lift and tire are you running if I might ask?

    Lets talk about camp lights

    I love these things. I run them with lithium AA replacements that would probably last a week or two on 24hs a day. They have a bright mode, dim mode, orange light for night, and the silicone glows in the dark making them easy to find. For me they are so much better than hardwired lighting. I...

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    I'm finding this a little hard to believe and a little bit on the ignorant side. The Colorado high feature V6 has a strong midrange but is a fairly gutless engine when it comes to torque and you have to rev the crap out of it. I would bet the torque curve for the 4 cyl is better than the V6...

    2004 Tacoma front end knock, need help tracking down the cause

    My rubber coil isolator is shot. When I go over speed bumps I get a clunk. Also sometimes when I am steering quickly at low speeds. Also pulling slightly towards that side. Lift and all new suspension stuff soon so I'm just letting it be for now.

    Next generation snatch block

    If you winched only perpindicular to the fairlead on the same side and elevation every single time that might be a valid comparison. Nice try though...

    Drive from a campsite on a trail then road into the town of Guanajuato Mexico

    Campsite outside of Guanjauato and the drive back into town. A really cool city in the mountains with weeks worth of off-roading and exploring you could do in the area. Only 6-7KM outside of town. The site is on ioverlander.

    Leaving annex attached while folding up tent?

    The stuffed like a sausage look is how cover looks w/o the annex even under it on my MT Shasta Summit. I would love this functionality but I think it's impossible.

    Awning room with wood stove

    A welding blanket like harbor freight sells is a good solution and it is flexible and easy to pack. I used one so I could keep my buddy heater on the ground so in a cot in the annex you could feel some heat. But a good gust of wind might get than wall to close to the output. I purposely pushed...

    Sure-Fire Ways to Improve Your Roof Top Tent

    My floor is metal. The air temp is ok but with just the OEM mat I can feel the metal wicking heat away from me from contact.

    Sure-Fire Ways to Improve Your Roof Top Tent

    Ok. Got mine in Oct 2017. Think that would be far enough apart if there was an irregular batch. Seems like that's just how they are designed.

    Please talk me out of my irrational desire for a Disco

    It's harder to talk someone out of a Disco. I wanted a Defender 90 or 110 for the longest time. Until I sat it one. There is no room and you are smashed over towards the door. Sitting in the rear the seats are too high and goofy. That was it. Just like that I realized I would never own one...

    Batwing: New Smaller Version

    Let us know if the bag design still let's water in either through the canvas top or the rather silly closing flaps. My awning material developed holes in places where it the support poles were rubbing on it. Curious if there is anything different with this awning.

    GAIA won't delete saved maps

    Well I logged into the phone browser and deleted the maps off of the Gaia server that way and it worked and was quick. But then the Gaia app just kept crashing even if a rebooted. I decided to just start from scratch so I went into the browser and deleted all my maps and uninstalled and...

    GAIA won't delete saved maps

    I am having the same problem on a nexus 6p with maps on the internal memory. I have gigs of stuff I need to delete and it either hangs or processes for hours and the map remains.

    Awning room with wood stove

    Very jealous. Have been eying the g stove for a long time. Have a propane heater but over half the places I have wanted to use it the elevation has been too high.

    Glad to hear this from others. I see videos of people packing other RTTs up and I am just like really? How long ago did you buy yours?
