    Show me your vehicle-mounted or quick-deploy kitchen setups

    This was an idea that I had a few years ago, which was to hang a folding setup from my roof rack. The one pictured was a prototype; nothing too fancy, and it worked pretty well. I cut out a hole to drop in a little plastic tub for washing dishes, that could pop back out when I folded the unit...

    Thoughts on using a 2 Wheel Drive Sprinter

    There's jeep stuck, and then there's big van stuck. You can jack a jeep to get stuff under the wheel, but you're not really going to do that with a van. Plan accordingly.

    Fuso FG 4x4 Custom Expedition Vehicle Build

    Who makes that external shower point you have? That looks very interesting! Great job; very functional and well-thought out.

    35 mm film and processing sources?

    So cool. I finally broke down and bought an Olympus OM-4T a few months ago, a camera I've wanted since it came out in the late 80's. I sent it and my old OM-1n off to be serviced. Looking forward to dabbling in film again. My wife even has all her old developing equipment that we're thinking of...

    87 Suzuki Samurai

    I saw that for sale, I think. Nice trucklet. What engine is in it? I've had a 1.6 TD on a pallet for about 10 years, flip-flopping over a swap...

    They must a replacement in the works. Pretty hard to imagine the IGT line without a grill.

    What happens when the biggest and baddest vehicle breaks down

    That describes the reason for about half of what I own. I'd wear that thing out!

    What happens when the biggest and baddest vehicle breaks down

    Can you drive it with just the front half? That thing is so cool.

    Smaller camp stoves?

    It's funny; when I camp, my cooking ends up being pretty simplistic, so I only ever use one burner anyway. Evaluate how often you really need a second burner; maybe a little backpacking burner would be fine for the few times you actually do, leaving plenty of space for a nice single burner and...

    Thoughts on the Truckhouse Tacoma expedition camper...

    I think its an awesome effort from what I see, and look forward to more details as they come out. Nice job so far, Truckhouse!!

    Suzuki Owners; Let's see your ExPo Trucks

    I towed our Samurai many miles behind our Sprinter, and really never once missed not having brakes on the toad, to be honest. Just have to be a few steps ahead when flat-towing, as you can't back up easily.

    Snow Peak Addiction

    Nice writeup. Never thought to look at YouTube. I think I even pre-ordered mine when they first came out, that's how long I've had it.

    Snow Peak Addiction

    Ya know, I've had one since they first came out, but I've never used it. We always use a Pit Barrel Cooker. I should dig that SP smoker out, since I'm always complaining how much charcoal the PBC uses. Might have to look up that therm. How did everything come out?

    Sewing Thread....A discussion on making your own adventure textile gear.

    Love how those zip end to end. For my next neophyte trick, I'm modifying a stock car cover for my soft-top Samurai to be more of a summer quick on-and-off type top to cover just down to the metal. I had one for my Jeep years ago, and thought nothing of using the vehicle. But these full covers...

    Portable Charcoal Grills

    I've eaten some pretty darn good steaks cooked over the charcoal chimney starter. Yep, not much cooking area. But, they obviously draw in air pretty well, and get the charcoal glowing pretty fast. And easy to dump. Just come up with a little grate to sit on top.
