Well I just got back from a pretty cool trip through the New England (NY, VT, NH) area and figured I would get a trip report started. I think the best format is to get a post for each day, but that may change as I get this going. Right off the bat I'll speak to a few logistics of the trip and...

Unfortunately I can't be of much help on your questions, but I'm looking forward to see your progress. Keep the posts coming!

Responded to your PM, but for the sake of anyone else in the future I'll take some measurements and get them posted up here. Sent from my LG-LS993 using Tapatalk

Looks great! I'm thinking I've got about 5k more miles left on the OE tires, so springtime should be upgrade time. Even though the SRAs are a pretty junk tire I have a hard time upgrading when they realistically are working fine. Probably going to go with the 5100s all around and a stiffer set...

Not the OP, but I also have a Decked and a camper shell. And actually have it setup extremely similar with the mattress. IMG_9888 by ebeiersdorfer, on Flickr 2017-06-25 17.00.10 by ebeiersdorfer, on Flickr IMG_0325 by ebeiersdorfer, on Flickr IMG_1232 by ebeiersdorfer, on Flickr I've...

Slow as well for me. Luckily it doesn't really freeze up like some of you have reported. I just usually kick them off overnight and if they don't complete I pause them again. Rinse and repeat. I'm sure they limit the download speeds to save them money on the server side. A lot of times...

Nice looking Ram! How do you like the KO2? Looks like you stuck with the stock size, are you at stock ride height as well? Sent from my LG-LS993 using Tapatalk

Make one, or just ask anything here!

I'll toss out another software solution, Gaia GPS. They have apps for both Android and iOS, you can also use their website which is extremely handy for planning out routes. Has offline maps that you can download to the device, you specify the area and the detail. They also have a number of...

That's a bummer, I enjoyed seeing the updates on your build thread. I'm in the camp with seemingly everyone else; get than trans rebuilt and keep it as a trail rig!

I'd agree here. I think with the requirements on size you are looking at a Full Size or an SUV based off a Full Size platform. Then add the fuel economy onto that and the only vehicle left is the Ram EcoDiesel. They are also once again available as the EPA issues have been sorted out. The...

Looks like the 2017 EcoDiesels are now approved! http://www.tfltruck.com/2017/07/can-buy-2017-ram-1500-ecodiesel-trucks-news/ It took a new tune to get the stamp from the EPA, so I would imagine we will have a new tune on the older models as well. Ram is claiming no performance or economy...

Each person has to make their own decision on what's worth it to them. Personally I went with the RTIC for like $130. Buying and having to worry about ice is a pain. Much easier to just load up the cooler and go for a few days and not have to worry about ice levels. Not to mention it's much...

Last post got a little long winded so I got a few more photos from the last Allegheny trip. Friday night refreshments. IMG_1265 by ebeiersdorfer, on Flickr Saturday night refreshments. IMG_1486 by ebeiersdorfer, on Flickr A tired Maya on Saturday night. IMG_1455 by ebeiersdorfer, on Flickr...

Thanks! Nice looking Dodge (Ram) you've got there yourself.

About $1,100. The price varies a bit depending on the length of the system you need, with the shorter beds being cheaper.

I chose not to go the DIY route, but I'll throw in anyway. After looking at designs on here and even sketching some plans out I decided to go with a Decked system. A couple different things pushed me this way: weight, price, and ease of use. On the weight note the whole system for the Decked...

Something I haven't seen mentioned is scouting. Obviously don't force your kid into something they don't want to do, but the Boy Scouts do a lot outdoor activities among other things. I grew up involved in scouting and had a great time, I also formed a solid group of friends I hung out with even...

Allegheny National Forest Had another free weekend where I wasn't on call and wanted to get back out somewhere. Last time around I really only got to hit maybe 20% of ANF so I wanted to head back and see some more. I'm hopefully also going to make it on the MWO run here in a month or so and...
