IMHO, you are far better off making your own. Yes, there are some great kits out there. But buying a good rubber maid container or water proof case & making your own absolutely rocks. Because you can buy your own high quality stuff to put in it. I have always done this since being in the US...

I can't tell you how many times I have been "cheap tent camping" (meaning $150 or less) in severe weather and the next day, we were literally the only people left in the State Park still rocking our cheap tent and a good 10x15' tarp with custom grommets that I did myself, and 2 poles & we were...

I use a "for life" coffee pour over/steeper and use a 50/50 mix of chocolate mocha and French vanilla coffee.

You can also find some nice 12v products at truck stops. Also of note, HF now sells pure sine wave inverters, that claim 92% efficiency. Catch one on sale. Ours has worked flawlessly so far (2000/4000 watt). We have a 700 watt microwave for heating up our pre-cooked meals. Our setup is able to...

Stanley Outdoor Products is a great low cost way to buy new items. If you do, check out Waypoint Survival videos on YouTube. He has some very easy, very inexpensive mods to make Stanley cook products even more versatile. They are short & to the point. I have done many of them to my Stanley...

Regardless of what you choose, just remember that if you don't sanitize it, you could become sicker than you ever have, and be in the middle of nowhere, lol. I always use plain bleach. No additives, no dyes, no fragrances. I double the recommended amount & then let sit while full for at least...

Yup, I agree. But the problem is that they seriously don't even care.

Tires, tires, tires. Tires will make a huge difference offroad. I would try to score a second set of wheels and put some mud terrain tires on them. Only use them when going offroad. I have seen trucks with no lockers or limited slip get stuck on grass in their yard. It was pretty pathetic for a...

NY State is just as bad or worse. I got pulled over and ticketed with a bone stock brand new 1988 Ford Ranger, on the Sawmill Parkway. Trooper said because it didn't have a cap on the bed, it was considered a Commercial Vehicle. If I put a cap on it, I would be fine. So I just paid the ticket by...

We have the All American Grill from the Made in America Store. It is for charcoal but has a threaded bung with plug in bottom center, so it can be made to run on propane without too much trouble. We love it. Stores into itself. It will last generations with just a little care...

Not sure the last sentence is true. I have seen and talked to more than a few "aluminum riveted" camper owners who said that their camper had issues with rivets and leaks. And we have also seen a "fiberglass oval" shaped camper that had a structural crack and leaked. The sun, time and vibration...

It sounds like a custom made solution to me. Especially if you want it to be tiltable in more than one direction. It certainly is doable and if done right, it could be a huge money maker for you. There are plenty of people who would want this not to mention the RVers market.

In this day and age, just make sure everything is secured good. Out of sight out of mind. People love to take what's not theirs. As far as the solar panel/s, if you have a bed rack, you could mount it on top of that. And unless someone is really tall, or looking down on it, no one will even...

Honestly, as much as a couple decent sized coolers can cost these days, it's not that difficult to just get the fridge/freezer. It truly is life changing, to not have to play the ice/water soggy stuff game. We bought ours when the ARB was pretty much the only game in town. Right after our...

Stew came out absolutely amazing. I used a 3.5 lb roast + 2 packages of stew meat, a bunch of potatoes, a bunch of carrots, a package of celery, a bunch of onions. It was so full, I had to press the top on. For liquid, I used 2 cups beef broth and 1 cup Dr. Pepper. For spices, I used Montreal...

It sure would be great if everything was Made in the USA & better yet if everyone could afford to buy them but reality says different. I came close to buying one of these when they first came out. Reviews gave me cause for concern over quality. I contacted Camp Chef and was assured that they...

So, this new sealer works awesome. So much faster than the old one, even when it was new. It sealed in 3 seconds or less once the sealing light comes on. I just did 8 bags, so that is 16 seals. Heat bar was not even hot to the touch afterwards. Fan seems to be continuous, which is fine by me...

My first use is going to be a stew. Sometime this week. Can't wait.

Well, that was fast. It arrived Saturday evening. Box was in perfect condition, surprisingly. Last thing I ordered, box was totally destroyed, in 2 pieces with about half a roll of packaging tape holding it together. I was amazed that everything was in there. Upon removal I saw that Teeter taped...

Around 1990 I purchased my first vacuum sealer. It was purchased in W big box store mart. It lasted about 2 years & died. Didn't really like it and it wasted a lot of bag. Next I purchased the biggest Professional sealer from Cabelas. It was awesome & lasted up until recently. I guess that's...
