    Are you interested in Tasmania?

    I would give a left huevo to get to Australia and Tasmania. My 110 has been all through Australia, just without me. Blair

    Central Coast meet and greet

    Had a great time. Great people, great food, and great trucks. Weather was a bit on the nippy side like everybody predicted. Had hail and snow for a little while. To say this was a cool Sycro would be an understatement. Jeff had a nice truck. Marcus from Switzerland had his peaceful weekend...

    NV 4500, California

    Hey all, I have decided to cull the heard and get rid of a project. I have a Dodge NV4500 that was going to be used and is now not needed. It is a Dodge rebuilt NV 4500. It was rebuilt by a transmission rebuild company prior to my purchase and looks new inside and out. It has never been used...

    It'sa Disco party!

    So far I have really liked them. Pretty quiet, nice tread, and decent price. I just need to get the OME springs on it. I also need to ait up the pressure to see if it affects the mileage. Blair

    Changes in firearm laws in national parks.

    Normally I would not start threads about guns. However, for information only,it sounds like new rules are being drawn up regarding fire arms in the National Parks. http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-guns23feb23,0,6348105.story Blair

    It'sa Disco party!

    Thats the strange part about the dirt. Supports a person without a problem, add a heavy truck and you are through. My 110 went through the same area with little problem. It has new tires and no roof or sides so it is lighter. Blair

    It'sa Disco party!

    Pretty funny actually! The water comes across our property (7 Acres) and enters into a drain further down on the property. I knew it would muddy but with all the rain and a heavy Disco, it sunk. Had to have my friend come up with his SIII 88 and pull me out. Went and picked up the kids in it and...

    It'sa Disco party!

    New tires for the Disco! Well, within 2 minutes of entering my property from retrieving my new to me Rover, I stick it. Crappy tires, high pressure and slick mud are a brutal combination. No glamor shots here, Stats: 1995 Disco 5 Speed 118,xxx miles Needs new tires Kid transporter Soon...

    Photo Critiqing Thread

    Thanks for the nice comment. I tried cropping it. The one thing that seemed to happen was that I keep losing what the lever was used for. Does this work? I also included a couple more for ideas. I think this one is a neat picture. I had to cut the wheels off a little to eliminate people and...

    WTB Tom Sheppard Vehicle Dependent Overland Travel

    If you come across a copy, I think you will find that none of the things that you have mentioned are supported nor recommended. He advocates the use of maps and compass's. Roof top tents add to much weight up top in his opinion and that battery operated fridges are a waste of energy and space...

    WTB Tom Sheppard Vehicle Dependent Overland Travel

    I think for the person who is truly interested in "Overland " travel, this book is a great book. If it wasn't, people would not be willing to pay as much as they do. I don't think the book will sit well with people who think an "expedition" is a weekend in the desert and the biggest challenge...

    Here are some shots I took at the Historic Races at Laguna. Not a photographer (no kiddiing), but what could I do to make these type of shots better? I really enjoy vehicle pictures as well as candid pictures of people. Blair

    WTB Tom Sheppard Vehicle Dependent Overland Travel

    This is a book that is a permanent fixture on my night stand. I believe mine is a first edition print that cost me 80 bucks in the 90's. It is the "bible" for overland travel as it covers all aspects of overland travel in a 4x4. The "Campervans) book is right next to it. It would be nice if they...
