I looked for the Hema booth and never saw it. I wish I did find it... Thanks for everyone's suggestions ad info.

Spent a week in Grand Staircase N.M. We just spent a week wandering around Grand Staircase N.M. Fantastic rock formations and geologic features. America's open spaces are just amazing. And it was a lot less populated than some of the better known national parks.

As someone who knows little about off road nav technology, the sheer amount and diversity of content is a bit overwhelming - especially since providers usually consider full disclosure about capability and limits of their content a low priority: true story - I'm at Overland Expo the other day...

Hey Raul it was good to meet you at the Expo. I'll shoot you a PM regarding the details of your nav setup.

Well, I'll start. We had a FJ with a high quality RRT. That was a great set up. Used it a bunch. But when bad weather rolled in it was still tent camping - set up or tear down in rain or snow sucked. And it seemed we always had bad weather... Our set up now- the Fernweh popup camper. It works...

Nice truck, I've always liked the Avalanche. Nice to see one set up like this.

Nice. I like those old Alaskans.

Murphy744 - good looking set up you've got there.

Really nice truck. GLWS

Well, I've got taller tires than stock on the 4.6 so I installed 4.10's. My camper is pretty light - about 1000 pounds so the 4.6 does good. I just don't like it downshifting so much on highway inclines and thought I'd at least explore other possibilities before I put too much work into fine...

Care to post a pic of your truck since your last suspension tweaks?

Mr Gordigear - in the past I had a Howling Moon RTT and liked it a bunch. For my next purchase, can you share thoughts on your product as compared to the Howling Moon - pro/con?

I was definitely planning on having the diesel injectors checked before making a decision. My biggest concern about the 6.0 gas engine is fuel economy/range between refuels. My F150 4.6 is getting 15.5 mpg fully loaded.

So today I test drove 2 GMT 800's. One was a swank 03 GMC 2500 with 6.0 gas 77k miles- the other a 04 Chevy 2500HD Duramax 148k miles. Roughly same price. The GMC was very nice but didn't feel much more powerful than my F150 4.6. The Dmax was an nice/average example of a 148k mile truck and...

Justcuz - did ever find out if the torsion bars are swap-able between the Chevy and Ford?

Thanks!

Another option to consider is a Webasto or Eberspacher heater. They make diesel or gasoline models. Very little electrical draw and use very little fuel. They're small and easy to use. The down side is they can be a bit pricey, but this can be helped by installing the unit yourself.

A little Nevada reconnaissance Well, it's finally done - I retired and moved to northern Nevada. So we did a little trail riding the other day. Found the Pony Express trail, saw some wild mustangs and antelope. Living in Europe was fun while we were there, but we're gonna enjoy...

I'll be looking for you at Expo West!

Sub'd ! Great start to a great adventure. Good to see another nice flatbed camper truck.
