Thanks. I'm outta here in about ten minutes. I'll let you know how it went in a couple of weeks.

Some off-roading add-ons Over a couple of decades, I’ve had some pretty good off-roaders. But when they were on pavement, they ranged from “meh” to “downright poor.” No surprise, really. The complicated part of overlanding is deciding what you want to gain and what you’re willing to give up...

Congratulations, both on the work and on your perseverance. Quite an accomplishment to have it all up and running now. Enjoy yourselves.

I suppose this could have gone in the Vehicles for Sale section, but our Sidecar forum could use the traffic . . . That ever-popular time and money sink Bring-A-Trailer has made note of a Rokon Ranger factory sidecar rig that is for sale on eBay. It's currently inconveniently located (for an...

Thanks. Informative, well done and, I'm certain, extremely helpful for many. Looking at this video should go a long way toward showing prospective builders how straightforward this method is.

Thanks for the helpful post. Appreciate it.

All downhill from here. One hopes.

Anyone looking for either a sidecar or a sidecar rig would do well to check in periodically at the ADVRIDER Hack Forum's "FS, Fleabay, & CL stuff goes here" thread. The good people who take care of the thread don't miss much of value across the US and Canada...

Congratulations on the cabin mounting, my friend. Quite an accomplishment, and in spite of all the hard work and clever thought it required, you got it all done in pretty much record time. Good luck moving forward.

You pick just the right topic, I'm pretty solid. On anything that's actually important to know, not so much. ;)

Congratulations on your purchase and thanks for joining us. Darrin was a friend of mine when he was finishing up your camper and I spent a couple of days with him at the ranch putting some of the final touches on your cabin. He built a Mitsubishi FG camper after yours, and then big two Fuso...

Congratulations. I'll bet you didn't get stuck, did you? ;)

I'm subscribed. Some of ExPo's best overlanders through the years have been people with non-traditional vehicles, and I'm much more impressed by you trying this than adding another Wrangler or Tacoma to the inventory. FWIW, if you've got a factory receiver, consider the option of getting a...

A great trip report and great photos to go with it. Thanks for sharing the information and scenery. I'm glad you had a good time. Congratulations on the full-scale launch of the NW Adventure Truck. Looks like all the hard work paid off.

Looks like it's just you and me, buddy. I don't know why sidecars--best vehicular combination of fun and practicality ever--don't get all sorts of love. I got rid of my CB1000R this winter and haven't much missed it. I have hung onto my DR-Z400 so I have something to transport on trips, but in...

eBay just sent me an e-mail saying that Darrin's camper just sold. The site said it went for $49,500, which was the most recent Buy It Now. Congratulations to the new owner; I hope you'll let us know and tell us about your trips.

Good call about satellite. It's what you have when there's nothing else to be had. I had XM throughout ownership, though I went through a separate (XM Snap) tuner--could move it among trucks--rather than using the factory Sirius in the head end. My memory is sketchy on this one, too, but I...

If we're talking about the factory GPS, it spent about two months telling me I was in the middle of the Columbia River off Hood River, so welcome to the club. The problem is that the signal getting to the GPS receiver isn't strong enough. It was marginal when the cab overhang was half what it...

Thanks for the heads up. I also so through stretches where I go straight to the forums and miss the interesting stuff on the home page. Even better, the Caponord is a bike I am considering, so the timely and well-written review was very valuable.
