    Actual build cost vs markup on US built off road trailers/teardrops.

    Well bike manufacturers are kind of have other pressures and they have facilities near me. But they had to move manufacturing of most of their lower and mid range bikes overseas for two primary reasons. 1. They could not compete in those segments otherwise and people aren’t usually willing to...

    2017 Ram Promaster Camper Van

    @staronm Who is your ladder built by? Also I dig the porthole mirrrors on the right side kind of like a throwback to the old Dodge “A” Vans

    Pics of your VAN! Post up!

    @Seattle E350 that is sweet I really like the stance and those fold up stairs. I wish I could bring myself to buy a Ford or Chebby van to have converted, but I will always be a Mopar guy since my dad and bunch of my family worked for and retired from Chrysler. Since FCA will not be bringing...

    The Official Bacon Thread. (Got your attention?)

    Howboutnah? I am sure DiFi and Komrade Kamala would want to ban this for being evil, black and scary! I have some meat the WHO can process... Seriosuly though I have worked with them in places like Somalia, the DRC, Haiti and Afghanistan. What a backwards ass organization they are long...

    Actual build cost vs markup on US built off road trailers/teardrops.

    I think this was a gracious way of breaking it down @capturecolorado. Basically you are charging based off the concept of opportunity cost. People need to realize that because of the lower production volumes of most trailer manufacturers they are not able to really take advantage of economies...

    Fiat Fullback Camper by Terranavtika

    FCA does not currently sell a midsize in North America but is launching a “metric ton” pickup that will be body on frame and most likely built in Saltillo, Mexico or in Toledo at the same plant that built JKs and is now switching to build the Jeep Gladiators. Basically it will finally be a...

    Budget, but brand new, Fullsize expo rig ideas.

    @04Ram2500Hemi You beat me too it as far as stock off-road set up hard to beat that in a full-size with factory disconectable sway bars and lockers, plus already set up for a winch. Though there are ton of deals on the actual 2018 regular PWs right now with truck month.

    @ttengineer That rack is awesome and what I am looking for, once I get my new PW this year which has the same bed as the Gen 4 Ram 2500s I will have to hit you up. If you have plans or would be willing to build another

    Ram coming out with split tailgate?

    That would be sweet but I am guessing they are going 1500 because of the IFS and overall better ride. Also remember that while the 1500s that came out last year are a fully redesigned Gen 5, the new 2500s are more gen 4.5, since they were only really changed from the grill back to about the...

    I don’t know how long we can knock a mall crawling, if you have been to one lately you might notice it is descending into a post-apocalyptic dumpster fire. I think the average American is about 5 years away from wheeling thru their local former mall’s food court and then the death races will...

    Ram coming out with split tailgate?

    The only product I really want from FCA with a split rear vehicle entry is for them to finally make the BoF large SUV built on the Ram 1500 platform. I know that might be the Jeep Wagoneer or Grand Wagoneer that is coming out soon I just hope they don’t try to only having it available as a...

    The Danger of using the wrong recovery equipment

    I think the things that people do with winches and vehicles is probably only surpassed with what they do with chainsaws and trees. People don’t the time, don’t know their equipment, don’t have\don’t wear PPE and most dangerous don’t appreciate the potential lethality of the forces at work.

    Moby1 Going Out Of Business? Has Anyone Received A Deposit Return?

    @Outside somewhere Thank you, really sincerely thank you. I have been slowly getting into overlanding because it combines a lot of my interests and skill sets. But most importantly I wanted to use if as a way to connect with my young kids more now that I am medically retired from the military...

Anywho back on topic has anyone seen these from PCOR (Patriot Campers Off Road) they are in the US now distributed thru Expedition Outfitters in Oklahoma after they made them for their Ram Super Tourer build. I really like that tray and...

    2006 Mitsubishi Montero Limited worth it.

    @Montesaurus I have personally driven some of the same year Monteros as the one you got in Iraq\Afghanistan and we gave a bunch to our host-nation “allies” there. On some of the shittiest raids imaginable (and that is when they don’t have IEDs buried in them) they were beat to ******** and just...
