7.3 Ford with a Grandby someone may like and a Powerwagon ambulance just 'cause I like 'em. http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/cto/5278318274.html http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/cto/5265186438.html

I'll send you a PM re: the lid.

I've also wondered why some of the high MPG diesels don't seem to make it to the US. A while back one of the soon to be released manufacturers (Elio motors, IIRC) had wanted to use a tiny diesel in their then-planned 180+ MPG hybrid. They had a perfect motor but California EPA wouldn't approve...

I think a visit to Marc at XPCamper would be worthwhile for you. My wife and I were never interested in a 'truck camper' until we saw the V1 (we own one now). The V4 seems like it's evolving and could meet your needs. By your criteria you're looking for an off road capable vehicle and the...

Freebird, I'm a new-ish owner of an XP V-1 we bought used from Marc. Ours was built in 2012 before Marc did fiberglass in-house so it has a lower door that doesn't quite seal completely. We've spend much of our time with it bouncing around the Mojave desert. The inside stays really clean while...

If you're looking for good long-term feedback on an XP camper look at songoftheroad.com if you haven't already. They've been on the road for over a year now. It's a fun read with lots of good XP feedback mixed in. There are a couple other blogs out there from XP owners but theirs probably...

This is an old thread but I wanted to share a recent experience with my Powerplant. I bought it in 2009 and used the winch once to re-spool under some load. I've used the compressor a couple times per month airing up and found it similar in ability and speed to friends York/Kilby systems. I...

Any photos you can post? And where are they located?

Sam (songoftheroad.com) released his iOverlander app for iPhone. It includes their campsites in map and list form as well as submissions from others. Lots of great info. http://ioverlander.com/

Seems like most in this forum built their own. I think Doug Hackney had a small board onto which he mounted an RV 12v pump and a filter. He had a long extension to clip onto the battery for power and a hose to run back to the truck. He could fill tanks from a remote source, filtering before...

I think the OP is referring to maps downloaded using the Gaia app. Gaia allows unlimited download of topo/sat/FS and other maps for use offline w/o a cell connection. I really like their download as you can grab large, user-designated areas (as opposed to small numbers of tiles like couple...

FWIW, two of us stopped at the Toroweap overlook campground on the way to OX13 last year. The ranger came by and asked if we knew each other. When we said we did he asked us to leave as groups are not allowed to use the campground. He pointed out the sign we missed that said two campsites cannot...

I've had my ARB Simpson III in 30-40 MPH winds many nights. It sits on a Campa trailer so it's about 70" off the ground. I won't say I get much sleep as it can sound like a freight train, but the tent has held up perfectly. They are, as others mention, built much stronger than most ground tents...

Not sure what kind you're looking for but Campfire Grills are very well made. I've had one for about 5 years and used it a lot. It's not a traditional BBQ, just a grill, but it's very simple and flat to pack. Good quality stainless. The "pioneer" 18" grill is a perfect size for 4 steaks and 4...

Back in post #60 the question was asked about using this as a dining chair. Now that there's a bunch of you out there that have these in use, what are your thoughts on the dining chair issue? Is this the only chair you carry or do you prefer a "traditional" chair for dining? I loved sitting in...

That was it! Thanks emt.micah!! That was it. I had not checked that fuse. Thanks again!! Paul

Hi folks. I have a 2009 JKU and a couple years ago installed a 7-pin trailer harness (bought from Chrysler). Since then it's worked fine but recently I found I am not getting power to the trailer running lights, or more specifically no power to the pin/blade on the vehicle plug that powers the...

It's a wonder how this has taken so long to accomplish. I've wondered for years why you can't drop your iPhone into a port that displays its screen on the vehicle display and allows control of the device from the vehicle screen. And why the iPhone/iPad couldn't display a whole variety of vehicle...

No worries Jeff. Good luck with the sale!

PM'd you
