Yes and no. Yes, a rear mounted fog light is a great idea. No, not all rear mounted fog lights are illegal per the DOT. In most states a red rear mounted fog light is legal. In most states, white or amber rear mounted fog lights are not. Check the vehicle codes for the state(s) in which...

You guys with LJ Rubicons are making me lust for a new Jeep. Anyone interested in selling their LJ should contact me.

WAM Bumpers? As in "Wam, bam, thank you ma'am?" How appropriate.

This thread took a tangent from the very beginning because TrophyCummins, the original poster, suggested that he and his wannabe desert racer buddies have such sophisticated suspensions that the rest of us need dust lights because they can't drive slowly enough to avoid hitting us, and further...

Regular red tail lights are often difficult to see in the powder dust of the Southwest deserts until you are almost on top of the rig in front of you. An amber light of equal lumens is visible to the human eye from a greater distance, which is why the race sanctioning bodies specify amber for...

It doesn't make a sound.

I have been using one of these for the last 15 years. Sturdy and easy to store. MSRP $59.95 https://www.byerofmaine.com/products/camp-furniture/portable-cot.html They also have a 18" tall cot for about $90

There was a recent post on Expo (that I can't find) with this link to a San Diego Craigslist ad by Jim and Scott Callen advertising brand new Callen campers by special order. http://sandiego.craigslist.org/esd/rvs/5904453851.html I had a Callen camper on my '87 Ford F250 diesel 4x4. It was...

FYI - I found another option for a rear-facing dust light for those who seldom really need one and who don't want to mess with a permanently wired light: Custer Adjustable Emergency Light w/ Magnetic Base - 18 LED - Amber; powered by 4 AA batteries. The same light is also available with a...

What are the dimensions of your Outback Swag tents when rolled up? You wouldn't happen to have a photo with one rolled up would you? ______ PS - PM sent re your upcoming sale

Indeed, you are the winner!

This statement bothered me when I first read it because my recollection from my days long ago as a physics student is that an amber light of a given brightness is visible to the human eye from a greater distance than a red light of the same brightness. However, I didn't challenge OCD...

^^^ This.

My guess is that he used a "Reese Towpower Sure Step Self Stick Rubber Mat" available from Home Depot. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Reese-Towpower-Sure-Step-Self-Stick-Rubber-Mat-1041200/205703833

My offroad rig is equipped with: (1) CB (still the common denominator among offroaders, and it doesn't matter to me if the only person I reach is a "whiny trucker" if that person can help me out of a jam); (2) FRS/GMRS (even though it has limited range); (3) Ham 2m/70cm (for both simplex and...

I looked up the rules for desert racing "chase lights" aka "dust lights" to see if there are any technical specifications as to color, lumens, wattage, etc. that might provide guidance for those of us who don't race but want to increase visibility in dust, snow, fog, etc. for visibility/safety...

To Trae: I neglected to mention that P&P Engineering, a small fabrication shop located in Indiana, now offers bolt-on front recovery points for the 2005-2015 Xterra. Cost is $50/one or $75/pair, plus shipping. As mentioned before, P&P has a spotty reputation for customer service and the owner...

Sure, why not? I'm going to call my "dust light" a "tule fog 'please don't run up my tailpipe' visibility light" when I'm driving in the California central valley tule fog. Those of you who have experienced an 18-wheeler approaching from the rear on I-5 or US 99 at 60 mph in zero...

What, no one approaching from the rear nerfed you in order to push you out of the way or insisted that they had the right of way because they were faster than you and their suspension cost more than yours? Utah must be a more civilized place than the desert in TrophyCummins's imagination...
