    Overland Recovery Gear We Use & How We Pack It in The Garage Area In Our GXV Turtle

    Full size on the shovel, saw and hatchet is a good idea. As far as the jack I haven’t found one yet that will work with our Turtle. I gave the maxtraxs a lot of thought but ended up getting the gothreads. Maybe they won’t work as well but I am willing to give them a try.

    Part 2: Electrical & Water Systems we use in our Global Expedition Vehicles Turtle

    You do make a good point. I guess we all carry around more stuff then we need or think we need. As a metaphor, I carry a lot of baggage that if I unloaded I would have a spring in my step and be a lot more free to do the thing I really wanted to do.
