THE TITLE OF THIS TREAD IS INCORRECT. The rig under scrutiny is the Lance 650. (I was looking at the Lance 865 too, and got confused) Thanks to Lance 990, we are back on track. jefe. Now if i could only learn how to change the title of my thread.... In the world of narrow, not-so-tall...

It was July, 1965. Do not continue reading if you averse to nostalgia. An intrepid, 22 year old off-road traveler (Today i turn 72 years) and his new bride drove south from Los Angeles for a 10 day trip to "The Baja" as it was then called. A few months earlier, I purchased a 1949 Willys Overland...

jefe here. You don't know me, but you should know my son Matt. He lives in Truckee. He left on a 4-day Fat Bike pack this A.M. He is one of the kings of fat bike. Almost all dirt. No support whatsoever; unless you count the stop at the fox and hound, the only civilization on the trip. He carries...

Pardon the cross posting. I just don't want to do it all over for a different forum. You get to see both hard and soft sides, long and short on the trail. There was some G-narl factor. http://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/fuseaction/thread/tid/28246703/gotomsg/28246703/p/1.cfm#28246703 Our attempt...

I'm too spent to do another T.R. for this page, so I'll just give the coordinates for the one I put up on RV.net/truck camper forum: http://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/fuseaction/thread/tid/27623347.cfm Near the end is a compendium of pix from all the bros. who attended. Since i pulled up the...

In the late 1960's Kaiser Jeep won the bid to product some 5 quarter (1.25ton) multi-use trucks for the U. S. Government. They beat out G.M. in the bidding and produced thousands of these for the Military. My thought is, it would make a great expedition build-up. It has a removable arctic cab...
