OK, I just got word this morning that there may possibly be a cancellation for one vehicle, so if someone else cares to attend this trip, please send reply here, send a PM, or email to me.

Thanks for posting the links Brian :) I updated the first post with itinerary and details. It will be a pretty relaxed weekend (except for the hiking :p ). I posted directions to the area for the first nights camp. There really isn't any special equipment needed, but the usual gear for desert...

Yea, me too! Thanks to all for the nice comments on the pics ;)

OK, got it

You are a lucky d00d ;)

I don't think there is one. However, I have seen a disadvantage to them if used as your only radio on a trip with friends in the backcountry. And that is that they have only one power option (low), and if used in their most simple mode of operation (hand-held) they have a limited power supply...

Scott Brady will not be attending this trip after all, so that opens up one slot (unless Datrupr still plans on two vehicles?) Stay tuned for more trip details which will be updated in the first post shortly.

I posted all of my comments in the thread at 4wdtrips... but I gotta say these are some really nice mods! I can't wait to see the video captures :ylsmoke:

:Wow1: Nice bumper stand there. :lurk:

Nice artwork!

On a related note, we had some discussion on how to figure out your power requirements in this thread, which may be useful in trying to determine how much solar you want to go for.

Very nice! Congrats on a sweet trip. That pic of Ubehebe Crater is beautiful.

Cool. One argument for having the shower in the front, is that it's no big deal to get water spray all over the front of the truck, whereas you will likely want to keep the cooking/cargo access/shade awning areas nice and dry. This is assuming you are in a camp where a privy is not neccessary...

Sounds like it will work nicely. If you go with the Isotemp, will there be a mixing valve at the controls to help with temp. tuning for the water output at the shower? Or will it be a scenario where you need to keep the water flowing to avoid scalding? Also, I am curious about your choice for...

Forgive me if you already gave the details, but what are you planning to use for this? The same heater as you have on the Taco? How about the controls & faucet?

AHA!! I knew it was you!! :jumping:

Mark, your pics are the best! Can you share any more? That LR shot is kick butt! Is that who I think it might be? You are correcto about the cowboys in the Sonoita area. I know a couple of them and have partied with a few of them... they are definitely genuine souls who keep the ways of the...

Your welcome! All thanks goes to Steve S. :archaeolo

Good luck John. Keep us posted. It was a real pleasure cruising through the Hackberry/Devil's canyon area with the LX.

'Dude & 'Girl, I have been watching this thread. That ride has been thoroughly PIMPED! I am INTO it! Great shots by Echo and the bridge shot (that was probably shot by the 'Girl?) is way cool. Nice job! Can't wait to see it in person. :bowdown:
