    Lets talk about camp lights

    Im not a big fan of a bunch of lights on when I camp. I mostly use a headlamp and red light when light is needed otherwise I like no light. Most of my travels are solo and I enjoy full moons or close for camps with no light. Picture shot at night

    If you are looking for a purpose built overlanding vehicle you may be challenged with LX AHC. With that said if you needs are also a DD then the AHC is easily workable if you educate yourself. Our LX470 is our travel and tow vehicle and if can do mild to wild and all the time being wife...

    Is AWD enough for deep beach sand? (Chevy Express AWD Van).

    This Dunlop tire was made for the sand, worked extremely well and was a big surprise. Looked like car tread but was narrow and tall. Aggressive tire in most cases is not the best for sand.

    Is AWD enough for deep beach sand? (Chevy Express AWD Van).

    Personally I would air down more. A couple pounds less would be very noticeable. Easy on the throttle in low range with no wheel spin is the goal.

    How deep can 4x4 vans get you? Beginner questions...

    Hit me up Ill do it again Im 7 hours from the trail head. Anyone that does HITR will be a better driver by the end of the trail. It takes a very confident driver and one that is not concerned with damage to think about it in a van.

    Going to a 100 from a diesel 80 is a big jump across the fence. No where as robust as an 80 but an increatable road vehicle. The LX is a better driver and a much more quiet ride.

    Done it a couple times perfect for an 80 but yes it does have a lot of exposure and you want a driver with experience.

    (Opinion) Buying a HDJ8X or not...

    I have a lot of time in both and both are great set ups. Go diesel if that what you want but I would not make a choice based on MPG. If you import spend the additional cost and get a left hand drive and be 30% safer than the cheapo driving a right hand drive.

    Best Gaia maps for Baja

    One of the advantages of android Gaia is it does not limit your DL to 100,000 tiles. At least it didnt when I was test both a couple years back.

    Thirteen days in the Sahara

    Not sure why wells would be manned? All the native people I met cheerfully help each other and I felt no selflessness to others. In addition none of the nomads we met in the dunes asked for anything and were very appreciative of everything we offered them. This well was about 30' deep.

    Thirteen days in the Sahara

    Super cool job on capturing the area in pictures. The sand of the Sahara makes dune travel very challenging. Just returned from a few weeks in Tunisia made it to the top of Sif se Suane the Mt Everest of Tunisia. North Africa is defiantly an exciting remote part of the world with some awesome...
