    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    Baja Designs LP4's for the front bumper on the Defender, Squadron Sports will go on the back corners of the cab to light up the bed and the immediate area around the backside of the UTV at night when loading. I had enough "fun" with the dome light install for one day so the rears will have to...

    2024 Casita 17' Spirit Deluxe

    I checked on the status of the Epoch Lithium battery in the Casita this morning when I was at my storage unit and the battery is still sitting at 299Ah without being plugged in for over a month now. It appears that it's currently doing better than its stated 3% monthly discharge rate. It'll be...

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    I finally got ThumperFab Elite Rock Sliders installed on the Defender. I really like how lo-pro these are, just enough to be used as a step but narrow enough so that they don't get in the way.

    Ahh you're headed more towards a true off-road camper!?

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    I took advantage of Baja Designs Black Friday promotion and ordered some LP4's on their A-Pillar mounts for the truck. I also picked up a set of LP4's for the front bumper on the Can Am and some Squadron's for the rear of the cab on the Can Am to be used to light up the bed and assist the backup...

    Which of the big three 3/4 tons would you look at and why?

    In some states a 1-ton can cost more to register and insure as well. My '23 F-250 Tremor has a 3/4-ton rating on the door sticker but it runs the exact same suspension as the F-350 Tremor 1-ton, it's a double edged sword.

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    A few more adds to the Defender. Trail Icon center stack molle panel for the Garmin Tread I plan to install. I also installed the MarqCAD Engineering short shifter with gated overlay panel in order to create the room needed for the Garmin atop the panel. Trail Icon center console molle...

    I love throwing Xpel on surfaces that see wear/debris.

    I threw a little cleaner wax on the exterior after the last post trip wash. It looks a lot better, what a reflection.

    BigFoot makes a great FGRV as well but I personally prefer the layouts and footprint of the Escape over what they have to offer. Very nice! I can't believe this hasn't sold. What are you moving to next?

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    She officially has the proper bumper and wheels/tires now haha. Not sure how the dealer screwed that one up but they made it right.

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    Late February through mid April is fantastic out there, just be sure to miss the few weeks when it's spring break in mid March, it's an absolute $hit show out there those few weeks. I'd possibly be up for a run in the spring if schedules align and I bet we could get @Kingsize24 to join us as...

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    Yea I just referenced the BDR-X route, it's a bit of a disappointment if I am being honest but we've been riding enduros out there for years and they basically just covered some of the same tracks with some of the main road sections thrown in. I think they covered some of the good aspects of the...

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    Got the proper bumper on, not sure why it wasn't on there to begin with.

    2024 Casita 17' Spirit Deluxe

    Well post trip discussions have led us to the decision to keep it for the time being. The wife really enjoyed the camper, she said she was comfortable and felt it had everything she wanted/needed. Her only real complaint was the width and possibly the desire for some more room for clothing...

    2024 Casita 17' Spirit Deluxe

    Thanks! I much prefer it without the decals but I'd be ok with a small gray-scale Casita decal on the nose. No flowers or wine, that's not her bag but she's enjoying it. We plan to discuss the weeks trip on the way home along with her thoughts on the camper and we will go from there.
