    Big custom camper sightings

    Hadn't seen that one before. Hot damn! Spotted http://twoifoverland.com/ 's rig in Bend awhile back near Drake Park. Guy from the military was walking by and recognized the beast under the beast. PS--WayNorth, you get all the good stuff up there!

    What makes a Unicat worth more than a Earth Roamer?

    Resources; being in an area with a lot of other "vehicle" related companies like limo builders and such?

    Another two Sportsmobile design failures.

    Amazing that people are FINALLY seeing *some* light. Still very sad to see how LOTS of others are still in the dark however. Lots more to come.........

    Roof Rack for RTT recommendation?

    Ditto as Carl, I don't remember noise on my FR LWB (tall) with the updated wind diffuser (I have the original old school diffuser circa '12, which created wind noise). Love the FR gear! https://expeditionportal.com/featured-vehicle-jeremy-williams-g500/

    G500 as first overland vehicle?

    Find a solid one with good maintenance history, keep it maintained, expect to pay more for mods due to the low volume of G's out there (vs Cruisers), but they're damn awesome. https://expeditionportal.com/featured-vehicle-jeremy-williams-g500/

    Wheel Center Cap Adapters for Hutchinson Bead Lock Wheels

    Well done Karl. NOW.....get Hutchinson engineers to pull their heads out of their azzes and make the damn wheels hubcentric to the W463. Their continual misinformation is deplorable <Yes, our engineers have measured many times.> I think they need new calipers as they're continually coming up at...

    Mastodon motors?

    Sad to see you got snookered too Scott. IIRC before you had your G painted there, there were some warnings on these forums and others about Mastadon (STAY AWAY). Doesn't seem like many paid attention. Really sad to see. :(

    Ford E-Series Rear Shackle Flip

    Well done Josh, great info and write-up! Now there's no need to wait for custom rear leafs (and no add'l cost for custom rear leafs), which always seemed to be a nuisance with the 4x4 conversions. <beers> to more pioneering for this van community.

    where are the Porsche cayenne expo builds?

    We'll soon find out on tires. Loving these 255/55/19 Duratrac's for everyday and trail use. Definitely go with a 958 IMHO. 955/957's feel so much heavier, more like driving an older truck/solid axle rig, than a sportscar SUV which the 958 is. 958 is soooo comfortable.
