I have no clue what I need in a mobile based radio, but we have some big trips planned next year and I'd like to get a nice setup that allows me to communicate with others in the group while on the go and as a backup to phones and the Garmin inReach. Icom, Kenwood, Yaesu, GMRS, DMR, APRS...

Went to look at a TRD OffRoad/Trail for the misses, she was tired of driving my F-250 and wanted something easier to drive/park and get in/out of. Our older dogs must be picked up to get into either of our trucks and at nearly 100lbs a piece that task gets old especially when they fight it. I...

No affiliation, just happens to be on the lot at my local dealer. Looks to be loaded less Ram boxes. 40K miles, asking $40K. https://www.victoriadodge.com/inventory/used-2017-ram-2500-power-wagon-4wd-crew-cab-pickup-3c6tr5ej1hg647989

Factory wheels and tires off of a 2018 Ram Power Wagon. The wheels are 17x8" 8 on 6.5(165.1) and the tires are 285/70R17 Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs. These will fit 2500/3500 Ram/Dodge HD trucks. I removed these from my 2018 Power Wagon with 1500 miles on them, so they are practically new...

I am looking to add switches to my 2018 Power Wagon to run switched power sources for a ARB Twin Air Compressor, LED lights, Fridge/freezer, etc. I like the compact size of the Switch Pros 9100 unit and it'll allow me to stealthily hide it in a few areas whereas the sPod 8-circuit touch screen...

Motor Trend article and video comparing these three awesome rigs out of the box as they drive them across Canada. Interesting to see the pre-test bias and how things shook out at the end. Worth a read and watch...

Well, after all of the back and forth over the past months on how I'd prefer the Power Wagon to be a diesel and that I'd seriously consider owning one if it were, well I am eating those words now. The misses started looking at them after she saw me responding in Power Wagon threads and they...

I went ahead and sold my beloved Polaris RZR XP4Turbo in order to free up the funds for the purchase of an expedition trailer. We will be towing this behind a Ford F-250 Super Duty on 37's and eventually behind a 4Runner or possibly even a 200-Series Land Cruiser, but for now it'll be behind the...

So for those of you running rigs in excess of 7000 lbs (i.e. 3/4-1 ton trucks/suv's) with tires 35" or larger on non-bead lock wheels, what pressures are you running when you air down? I run 50-55 psi under normal conditions and I have aired down to 30 psi just messing around, but I am not sure...

I am currently in the process of building out my 2017 Ford F-250, thread here http://forum.expeditionportal.com/threads/172510-2017-F-250-Overland-Hunt-Rig-build, and all of the research, talk, ordering, purchases, excitement, anticipation, etc. has gotten the misses all hot a bothered for a rig...

I have been looking for a set of pots to use with the camp cook stove. I love the stackable GSI stuff, but I would rather have stainless steel or brushed aluminum than the non-stick coated surface stuff and that's all that GSI offers. Primus makes a nice two pot set (3L and 1.8L with lids) with...

I plan to carry a Skottle to do most of my grilling and frying while traveling, but I obviously need a stove as well for boiling water/vegetables, making soup, pasta, chili, beans, etc. I want something simple, durable, and reliable. Most of the options I am seeing from Camp Chef, Coleman, and...

For those of you who use an expedition trailer, is it worth it and would you do it again? I understand they provide the real estate necessary for those of you with a mid-size vehicle that is already limited on space, but for those of you using one in conjunction with a full-size rig, how do you...

So I see nearly every overlanding rig these days with at least one set of Maxtrax's if not two. Are they worth the $300 price tag per set? Can you get by without them, or is there a better alternative? I've seen others talking about aluminum ones, but those don't sound as durable to me. Does...

I'm beginning to amass all of the essential gear in which I believe I need in my rig for overlanding adventures. I've got the big items down like a winch kit (recovery straps, shackles, etc.), battery jumper, Maxtrax, fuel and water containers, air gauge/airdown tools, air compressor/OBA, and...

I am considering a Bed Slide for my 2017 F-250 should I pair it with a camper shell. They make them in 1000, 1500, and 2000 lb payload capacities, I am looking at the 1500 lb and 2000 lb models. Has anyone used this product? I see ARE makes one as well, not sure how they compare?! Would you...

Well I picked up a new 2017 Ford F-250 this week. This will be my third 6.7L PowerStroke Crew Cab FX4 SuperDuty in the last 5 years, needless to say I have been very happy with this platform. I had a 2016 that I was well on my way to building up for an Overland rig but the new truck has more...

Just picked up a new 2017 F-250 King Ranch that I intend to build into an overland that I can comfortably DD. My first question is whether or not you guys think a 12,000 lb winch is enough for this truck or if I should go up to the 16.5ti? It weighs 7600ish stock but add bumpers, bigger...

I have a 2016 F-250 short bed 6.75 ft. I want to run a drawer system after I install my camper shell. I don't need the full on gun vault drawers but I would like a system that's efficient with the space and secure and weather resistant or waterproof. I've seen number of products on the market...
