    How To Isolate Section Of 12 V Freezer To Use As Refrigerator?

    I don't know if it would work, but my Engel has a plastic partition surrounded by rubber (I'm assumed it's filled with foam, and two rubber mats for the floor, I can make the whole thing fridge or freezer by taking the partition out. I can also change the size of the freezer area to the large...

    Anyone deal with Bivouac Overland LLC in Houston?

    Yeah, the only time he called me was when Amex took the money back from him and threatened to sue me. I told him go for it.

    New Bronco

    I agree, for me it was the perfect package, especially since you get the 4.7 gears when you get the manual transmission in the badlands. I knew I'd struggle with moving around and mounting a 35" wheel and tire combo. This thing definitely checks all the boxes. The only thing that would of sent...

    New Bronco

    I was finally able to pick her up and buy her on 2/8/23. This thing is a beast off-road. Unfortunately, I had to trade in my Miata to get her, but it was better than having a car payment.

    Colorado ZR2 Bison Build

    When I first installed the Sy-clone, I installed it in the wrong direction and it was quiet as could be. When I realized that the ejection slot needs to be faced towards the rear, I rotated it to the correct position. Now I can hear the blades when I step on the throttle hard as well as some...

    Colorado ZR2 Bison Build

    I second the recommendation on the pre-air filter Sy-clone. You can imagine how dusty things get during the summer here in Texas, especially West Texas and New Mexico. I purchased one after going through a major dust storm and had to change out my air filter two times in two hours.

    Colorado ZR2 Bison Build

    I have the snorkel and while it does block a minuscule amount of the view, it's not blocking much of anything and it's definitely not intrusive. I've never had a instance, where I've said, I can't see something because of it. AEV/GM did a really good job of designing this snorkel. And Dave from...

    Anyone deal with Bivouac Overland LLC in Houston?

    Did you give the $1500 dollars through a credit card? If so, tell them your experience and they will reach out to the merchant, which could get results for you. American Express gave me all my money back from buying an Alu-Cab RTT from Bomber Products, simply because they refused to respond to...

    supplement 12v freezer for cooler

    Are you supplementing the ice with "ice packs" those really help in keeping the "real" ice frozen longer. If you go down the small 12v freezer route, I would suggest freezing those rather than just water.

    Quality 12V Kettle

    I would think with your rig running that the Bluetti and EcoFlow would still loose a lot of power and only slowly charge them back up through 12v sockets on the rig. I think you would have the quickest heat up time and little setup with something like a Jet Boil or the like. Heating water...

    Is it worth to invest an expensive portable solar generator for camping?

    If you find you want one, why not make a post in your location area and see if someone will rent you theres, after using one on your trip, then you'll know if it's worth the investment?

    Lid for off brand 10.25" cast iron skillet.

    Silicone Universal Lid, I really like it: https://madeincookware.com/products/silicone-universal-cookware-lid/pomme-red Diameter is 10.75, so should be perfect. Dishwasher safe. It is $59 bucks, but creates a seal and works on many smaller size pots and pans. All-clad used to make...

    Colorado ZR2 Bison Build

    Looks, good, but a word of warning with that RTT being cantilevered over the back, you are screwing with center of gravity and weight distribution. Definitely do not tow with the RTT on it like that, and be careful with how much weight you have going to the back. While there haven't been many...

    Random dog shots

    Jackson's first beach and beach camping trip to Padre Island National Seashore in TX. I can't lift him (he won't let me) into the RTT, so he get's his own Decathlon 2 second tent, set up at the bottom of the ladder.

    Colorado ZR2 Bison Build

    Best way is to start small, go out with what you have and you will see and learn what you need to do next rather than what you'd like to do next. Bed racks are a good way to go. I had a Leitner Bed Rack prior and do miss a lot about it.
