    Time Lapse Build

    Saw that a while ago. The one thing that jumped out at me was the combo stairs thing. one of the challenges we have with our stairs- which just fold up- are that they have a tendency to get muddy and their solution would solve for that. I like it.

    Another Chassis Conundrum????

    It's been about 6 months......3 months overdo by my calculation.

    ACELA 6X6 WITH SLRV EXPEDITION BOX NEW BUILD

    Thanks for posting Alloy. That was a telling video. I think I'm going to get another roll and look for more places to put it on our trailers.

    We survived the Polar Vortex in our OEV Summit

    Agree to at least having two heat sources and in our case the truck itself would be considered a third. Curious as to what did you carry as a backup? I just have a little buddy propane heater since I carry few small bottles for use with our infrared bbq grill. We didn’t have anything close...

    Camper Builder Comparison (UNICAT vs. GXV etc.,)

    Seems appropriate that at the top of the page there is a review of a stream-based water filter. https://expeditionportal.com/field-tested-guzzle-h2o-stream-water-filter/ Although we haven't needed it (yet) I built a larger-scale version of the one reviewed that uses a dual particle and UV...

    Another Chassis Conundrum????

    I believe PnM was referring to certified seating - or otherwise suitable seating with restraints in the rear area. Not sure if that's even a thing, but it seemed like that was what he was proposing vs. kids running around in the back which sounds like a universally bad idea even though I can...

    Thoughts on the Truckhouse Tacoma expedition camper...

    Thanks tacomabill. But isn't that coverage predicated on certain information provided at the point the policy is written? And there are exceptions to your statement made if that information is incorrect? For example, if someone says they are looking for coverage of a vehicle that weighs X...

    Thoughts on the Truckhouse Tacoma expedition camper...

    Doesn't insurance get difficult if over GVWR also? I have a (bad) habit of reading the fine print on stuff and I seem to remember that our insurer could - AFTER AN ACCIDENT - deny coverage if the vehicle was deemed overweight. I'm not a lawyer, but that's probably a fight I don't want...

    Winnebago EKKO

    I recently undertook a rather ambitious project to completely soundproof and insulate the cab of our truck. Primarily using dynamat extreme and dynamat 1/2” thick insulating mat to fill in the dead spaces. The project reaped great benefits as noise/sound reduction. But the biggest benefit was...

    EarthCruiser/Fuso Driving Experience from a Sportsmobile Perspective

    Is it on queue yet? We can have a different opinion for sure, but claiming that mine is ill informed is incorrect. Mine is well informed and perhaps more important, it’s not filtered by some strange need to defend the honor of an inanimate object. But since you mention it, you pointed out...

    EarthCruiser/Fuso Driving Experience from a Sportsmobile Perspective

    By the same token, if you don’t care how road worthy your vehicle is, a John Deere Tractor will take you anywhere an EC can go. As I said in my previous comments, if the main rebuttal to the opinion that something is a dog as an over-the-road vehicle is “why be in a hurry” or “if speed is your...

    Sounds like a great opportunity for one of those YouTube shoot-out comparison videos.
