    BLITZEN goes Lithium

    We believe the best training we had for our current vehicle (which sports ~380 aH of battery and 98 gal fresh water) was having our SMB van for 12+ years with like 11 gallons of water and 100ah battery. Your early AGM experience will serve you well. I have done a host of electrical upgrades...

    Thoughts on the Truckhouse Tacoma expedition camper...

    Negative and Inaccurate are not mutually exclusive perspectives.

    Thoughts on the Truckhouse Tacoma expedition camper...

    Well, yeah…I mean who could fathom people that actually own custom built vehicles on various platforms might have an informed opinion. Clearly that’s beyond the pale. <eyeroll>

    Earthroamer SX

    Like I've said many times, it comes down to what you are wanting to do. While its not the 'purpose' of our rig, there are plenty of people who truly only really want to travel. Or to say it another way, they want to drive around (aka Overland). Which is totally fine but isn't our thing...

    Earthroamer SX

    You see this with virtually everything anymore. At least anything outside. Hunting, Fishing, Overlanding....you name it. Lot's of causes for it I'm sure. In hunting I lay it at the feet of social media and the supposed "non-profits". But that's a different discussion. I contend it's one of...

    Earthroamer sell off?

    I'm sure there's plenty of under-used big rigs out there, but I can say that in our case - miles driven doesn't equate to adventures taken and nights spent....

    Earthroamer SX

    Until they discover a design choice that involves helium, or other anti-gravity capability, I’ll remain skeptical.

    Earthroamer SX

    Ah, that explains it. Sigh. Sounds like I’ll have an adventure when I need to find 4 new G278s I took a giant chunk out of one of my treads while traveling a super rocky/uneven trail that I’m a little suspicious of right now.

    Earthroamer SX

    I was actually a little surprised to see those tires. While ours have been fantastic, they became hard/impossible to get last year and a couple of the GXV folks went the other way. One person got what I think Goodyear themselves described as a "bad batch" and had an explosive blowout at...

    Mini earthroamers?

    Gotta admit. The Chinese ER looks kinda tight....

    Barbed Hooks...

    You didn’t answer the question. All you would have had to say is “yes, I’ve read it”. But you didn’t. pray tell, what was the mortality spectrum observed in the “meta-analysis” - assuming you read it.

    Barbed Hooks...

    And by the same notion, you don't get to disregard previous studies that don't agree with yours. So, one says it matters and the other doesn't. Or does it? What are the key takeaways from your study? I'm curious if you even read it.

    Barbed Hooks...

    Damn, that must have stung. You didn't prove me wrong, you proved to me you either wouldn't (or couldn't) fess up to the original assertion. Which was - and still is - there are so many factors that contribute to fish mortality to a greater extent than barbless hooks. Which for the record...

    Barbed Hooks...

    Those aren't the only factors covered in the (various) studies though, were they?

    Barbed Hooks...

    If you say so. But Shill and Scarpella answered this years ago. " For flies and lures combined, mean hooking mortality was 4.5% for barbed hooks and 4.2% for barbless hooks. Combination of test statistics from individual studies by gear type via meta-analysis yielded nonsignificant results...
