The suburban is surprisingly agile offroad, everything in those pics is doable. If you want 15ish unloaded the engines choices are the 5.3/ 5.7/ 6.5 diesel. The diesel can be a good engine with the proper upgrades, but I would only recommend that motor if you are comfortable doing your own...

Depends. Like goodtimes mentioned in more difficult off roading its more of a requirement. Also if you are driving the anchor vehicle of the group (largest) it is a good idea to keep it from getting stuck. For those that travel on their own as well. Roads and trails can fall apart...

Whether the trailer is offroad capable depends on your definition of that. Dirt trails that would be up to a 3 or a 4 difficulty (on the 10 scale), those trailers would be ok.

A Cummins is a solid choice. Size really comes down to preference. Many here will say that anything bigger than a 4runner is too big for international travel. On the other end you have all the manufactured expedition rigs are larger sized like a box truck, or bigger. Perception is a big part...

Color, amount

Any others up for the buy?

Solid portable shelters. Have a MUST shelter (basically an expandable S280) that I'll be building. Are you still going to use the S250 now that you're an ambulance fan?

Yes I'm planning to use the same micro beads in the paint that Joaquin is using, just different paint. Have a set of 395 tires and MRAP wheels lined up for the truck. Will be picking them up in mid October along with a set of 3 seats from an MRAP. More comfort, cruising speed about 60-65mph...

I've had the bed partially loaded with broken cinder blocks from when I tore down part of the fence, have been waiting to give it a bath until those are gone. The weather decided that was taking too long and rained on it all morning long hahaha. Lizard skin is basically an enamel paint thats...

The top is tight, doesn't move. Same with the doors and windows. The middle support bow is loose and bounces some, and the window seals, don't seal lol. I'm sure there is some movement with the windows but I can't hear it over the engine. Maybe after the cab is insulated with the home made...

Took the truck to the shooting range today.

Have 4 for sure from me "Sent from Serenity, passing through reaver territory"

"Sent from Serenity, passing through reaver territory"

<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Well exhaust is ready. Took it for a drive today without hearing protection, nice upgrade. Used a sound meter app on my phone, reading 69-70db at idle, 78-79 around town with the turbo whistling, and 84-85db cruising at 50mph with both vents and all 4...

Could go for a group buy at the end of september if yall are interested.

The 6 speed medium duty is strong enough but doesn't have enough of an overdrive. The current 5 speed has a .79 overdrive that can be upgraded to a .69, great ratio for the truck but makes for some big gear ratio gaps. A .73 ratio and at least 6 forward gears would be ideal. Have a lot more...

Here's the reply I received today about shipping. "Daniel, Sorry about the delay as we had to wait for the manufacturer we use to price it direct from them. This is what they have came up with. For a carton of five Safari Cans. Express post international to the USA AU$335.00 (5 Safari...

Good point on the weight concern with the trans. Fully loaded I'm looking at 17-20k pounds, the lighter transmissions would be nearly maxed out constantly. Do you have the specs on the Fuller? Will be a long time before I do anything with the trans so the more research the better. Mounted more...

Got the truck inspected and about halfway through rerouting the exhaust to the rear of the truck. Ran the 4" tubing between the battery box and the passenger floorboard Little bit of trimming but not much "Sent from Serenity, passing through reaver territory"

The soft top humvee we had on the demolition range was a good vehicle, capable offroad with no issues. I like those and the H3 truck versions.
