    The Oversleeper

    Yes, mine is factory advertised as 240Amp. I don't know if that's because it's a Rubicon and/or because it's Australian spec. -Dan

    The Oversleeper

    I worked the one in my 2011 JK HARD for three years around Africa charging a dual battery setup, and I replaced it in 2021 with something like 200,000 miles on the clock. The one in my Rubi JT is rated for 240 amps... -Dan

    Ursa Minor Camper Shell for JT Gladiator

    UM decided to design and build a top for the Bronco as their next new product, then after that the plan is for the Gladiator. Good products take time, and I'd much rather wait till they get it right than rush something to market. -Dan

    Hi Everyone, Northern Australia is turning super tropical, and I have to take in as much as possible while I'm here. The Great Barrier Reef is the largest living organism on earth, and is UNESCO listed. I had to get out SCUBA diving and have a look at this incredible underwater world for myself...

    Nice Jeff, thanks! Wow, they love the remote ones! The Canning just opened last month after being closed for Covid and I'm scrambling to fit it in. I'll drive all the rest for sure, heading up to to Cape York now :) -Dan

    Hi All, As I move around Australia I'm seeing a TON of well-built Overland vehicles, but none come close to this one. Ruth and Tony spent two years driving around Africa on the same route as me in their Defender 130. We camped together in Egypt at what would be the final wild camp in all of...

    Hi all, For our latest adventure we set out to explore a remote island off the coast of Tropical Northern Australia. This National Park wilderness is packed with stunning beaches, waterfalls, river crossings and we even had a tropical rain storm. Oh, and I forgot to mention the crocodiles...

    Thanks for the kind words! The auto is a love-hate thing. On one hand it's a bit boring - just a big gokart. On the other hand it's really easy to drive offroad, just point and shoot. In the deep sand it's been great not to stress about slipping the clutch, etc. I have to say though, I got in...

    Hi All, I always knew Fraser Island / K'Gari National Park would be a top 10 highlight of Australia, and it absolutely did not disappoint! This is the world's largest sand island, and together with my uncle Ron we spent ten days exploring all over, taking in the sights. We swam in the crystal...

    I saw $3.10 a liter the other day, which is $8.13 USD/gal. Thankfully I didn't have to fill up, the long range tank is helping me avoid the most expensive! -Dan

    Hi Everyone, The final challenge crossing the Simpson Desert is "Big Red" - the largest (or at least most iconic) red sand dune of the seven day crossing. There are multiple different lines to choose from, and of course I took the hardest (steepest) one. In manual mode, low range, I...
