    A Travato, actually. To me, the 4x4 Sprinters are kind of a weird beast - they have really weak traction control and are super top heavy, so not very capable, and are also pretty small so not super awesome as campers. If I were going for a 4x4 van it would be something like a Quigley Transit...

    Also a note on reliability: All of you here whining about the infotainment being buggy on Land Rover for years should feel blessed you have never spent a hundred thousand dollars on a camper van from any mainstream manufacturer. Reliability is relative, and pieces fell right off my Winnebago...

    based, no doubt on your extensive first hand experience. I have a feeling it will be worse at rock crawling and better at most other things, but I am waiting for the proof now that they are getting delivered... because unlike you I actually let reality form the basis of my opinions, not looking...

    Your baseball team sucks! They lost every game last year. My team is way better, we won one game and almost tied another! Glass houses, buddy.

    Oh yeah, I mean I have thought about getting a Gladiator a lot. Still might. The fact that resale value remains high is evidence of how much people love them, despite their warts. But they ain't exactly known for being reliable. I just find it funny how the first thing everyone brings up for...

    Yeah, I don't know that Jeep fans should be throwing any stones when it comes to reliability ratings...

    What an absurd strawman. That was not the claim at all. You were arguing that comfort does not matter, and I and others were refuting the absurd notion that there is no value to comfort or ride quality (which have NOTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH LUXURY) when overlanding. Is luxury REQUIRED? No...

    If running out of arguments was the time to lock the thread, it should have been locked about 50 pages ago :ROFLMAO:

    Coming from the person who has spent dozens of pages whining, that's pretty rich.

    That is an excellent, tasteful wrap - looks great! So much better than the super cringey bunch o' skulls I saw on the last ER wrap I looked at.

    This is one of the dumbest things I have ever read. This very publication, the one on whose forum you are repeatedly vomiting out your ignorant opinions, has talked extensively about driver fatigue and its importance to overlanding, and in their in-depth review of the Defender called out the...

    Fixating on the word SUV shows just how sad and pathetically desperate these trolls are, grasping at straws. Jeep calls the Wrangler an SUV. The Wrangler won SUV of the year in 2019. Guess it's not a Real Offroader, then, because a stupid little acronym is more important than... you know...

    Each of the Namibia expedition Defenders carried TWO IDENTICAL SPARES, you mook. They were on factory tires.

    Thoughts on a hitch-mounted "roof tent" rack?

    I've gotten used to blocking the hatch with bike racks already so I don't think that would be a big deal to me.

    Thoughts on a hitch-mounted "roof tent" rack?

    I like the idea of roof top tents for the quick setup and staying out of the mud, but also like using my roof rack for things like kayaks (also not so keen on carrying my dog up a ladder...), so have thought about one of those little trailers that you put a rooftop tent on. However, today, I...

    I finally figured out why certain posters are obsessed about posting pictures from the 4xFar festival... they are jealous that attractive people are going to buy the new car. :LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL:

    Whats next at EarthCruiser

    Could you say more about these two points? I have a camper van on a RAM Promaster extended chassis, which gives me about 12 feet of interior length (146") for a vehicle that is about 21 feet (250") overall A Sprinter 170" WB non-extended adds about a foot to that. The payload and towing of...

    Whats next at EarthCruiser

    I just saw this thing posted on the EarthCruiser Instagram, and came here to see if anyone was discussing it. There are very few options using a cutaway van chassis in the US (the only one I can think of right now is the Sportsmobile Classic), and I think that is a shame. An Earthcruiser on a...
