    2017 TACOMA $$$$$$$

    Putnam Toyota up in Burlingame, CA is getting a Tacoma Pro with the auto delivered to their lot by mid-Sept. They are slapping a $6,251 mark up over MSRP (bring it to $49,951) and claim some dealerships will go as high as $10K. LOL I'm sure reality will set in within a couple months and the...

    Need Some Recommendations Please

    I'm a Nemo guy so for your budget I would recommend the Galaxy 3P. Its still pretty hefty at 7 lbs but if you split it between the 2 packs you should be good. http://www.nemoequipment.com/product/?p=Galaxi%203P%20%28Birch%20Leaf%20Green%29%20%26%20Footprint Losi and Dagger are lighter...

    Need Some Recommendations Please

    A 4 person tent for backpacking? 4p is an awfully big (think heavy) for backpacking. To make it work you'd want to split up the main tent, the fly, and the poles/stakes between 3 people but even this I think wouldn't be a great idea for backpacking. You may be better off going with two 2P...

    Ozark Trail "High Performance" cooler - any good?

    I have to say the customer service from California Innovations (the maker of the Ozark coolers) is OUTSTANDING! I received my replacement drain plugs for both my 52 and 73 within 2 days after bringing the issue of leaky plugs to their attention. I can confirm the new replacements no longer...

    Carrying extra fuel

    Metal Nato cans have been available some time now with CARB complaint spouts. Note its the spout that is carb compliant and the can is exactly the same as any other NATO can. These are legal for purchase in CA so long as you buy the CARB spout with the can. I have this set up and actually...

    Cooler Showdown

    On the Coleman Xtremes, there are now Xtreme 5 and Xtreme 6 versions. The insulation in the 6s are very thick, like the old Xtreme pictured above. As an example the Xtreme 5 100 qt is the EXACT same outer shell and lid as the Xtreme 6 82 qt.

    Traded Tacoma for '16 ecoboost F-150. Heresy?!

    I'm currently debating the new 2017 Tacoma OffRoad Pro (Double Cab w/ 5 Ft bed) vs a 2016/16 F-150 SuperCab 4x4 with the 5.5 ft bed. The truck will be my new DD and I'm curious as to your thoughts on going from the Tacoma to the F150 from a DD perspective. Are you seeing a big difference...

    Most popular stove's used in Overlanding

    You should check out the 425C. All of the sides on this stove are flat, is a bit more compact, and packs nicer than the 425D and later models....the 425E's top has a bit of a rise to it, sides are stamped & indented, and it also has the bubble legs, all which makes its physical size bigger than...

    Which fridge? I'm researching but a lot options out there!

    My LR3 lightweight storage platform build (UPDATED: actual dimensions on pg 4)

    Like I said if your plan is a basic platform frame like mine then 80/20 will be 3x the cost of the framing I used with no clear benefit. I never suggested it was cheaper than the front runner drawer system.

    My LR3 lightweight storage platform build (UPDATED: actual dimensions on pg 4)

    I originally planned to use 80/20 on mine but in the end it's not cost effective for any benefit. if it recall for my exact same design in 80/20 was 3x the amount. Not smart IMO if your plan is a basic frame.
