I also add a Nalgene bottle filled with hot water to my bag when I go to bed. I move it around at night to heat the cold spot.

Others can chime in - but I say Don't drive it at all in this condition! Aluminum motor parts and no cooling is bad! what nwoods is saying is any radiator that fits and has the same size hoses could be "jimmied" in. I don't know if a auto tranny changes this since you have AT cooling lines too...

Let me ask a follow up question. Like Cruiserbent said, I love mine at the house, slip on for everything, but my feet seem to sweat in them - I have the cheapest plastic version - I have tried socks, is there a material you like better?

One problem I had with Crocs and dispersed camping, longer thorns, etc came through the sole. They are fine around a campground. I haven't liked them as shower shoes, water collects on the foot section and my feet feel slimy to me.

Like Flagster said - try several but Pearl Izumi is my favorite too... I will pick up a pair of Performance or Nashbar shorts on sale for shorter rides. Also add chamois cream if you don't already. Lots of riders will use cheaper Udder Baum over expensive stuff.

What were you thinking? (I am not interested) $500? High end older bikes don't seem to hold value as complete bikes. I know it is worth more than $500, but that is what I am seeing around here. A high end aluminum frame is not popular right now, 9 speed is dead (OK every bike I own except my...

When I first got my 40 series, I went on a ride with some friends and was running topless, the only antenna I had was a KM40 magnetic whip - 15 minutes in, it was banging all over front/back and side to side. I took it off, tried one more time using a string ties to the windshield frame, same...

If those two pass, I will throw my name in.... been looking for that material for a project!

"Maybe TLCA ought to ban Hi Lift jacks and steel winch line as well? " No I hate being around wipe antennas in the woods... when someone pulls out a jack, or a winch line I know there is danger possible. When I am standing beside a trail to let a truck go by and get hit by an antenna I couldn't...

A single point does not make a trend.... BUT - when I switched a high mileage motor to synthetic late, I developed leaks.... Again just one instance!

The saddle bag on the right side is where I place the keys, phone, etc when I go to bed.

Faulke - Here is my FP set up. I wanted to cover the side windows. and decided to add something to attached everyday items to. The ends are 1x1 posts and tied with a cross member (front and rear) The wire shelves are the only thing tying the two ends together (if I needed more support, I would...

by FJ - I assume you mean FJ Cruiser?

I wish they made one for the 1200 series. Nice kit!

Thank you! Can't wait to hear what they say!

Great quote Mike - "Of the places I've been, ExPo seems to have the highest ratio of useful information " There are many members here who I will read a post by them just because when they weigh in, it's worth reading! Mike, Cole, Herbie and others are it for me on the vans.... I would love...

Too bad they don't list the Marco Polo edition https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VX1eo9CqeL0 This article said it would be $49k and $69k - that would be a great deal compared to other van based campers.

I am surprised someone hasn't come up with a competition product. E Camper and J30 folks, far more pick-up trucks than vehicles for their products. The idea is brilliant, one size lid/bed/tent and then offer 5 or so shells that fit about everything. I was looking to see if I could connect with...

I think the biggest thing would be organization - every time you put something away, it goes in the same spot. - not having to dig for everyday items. I put a wire shelve over my windows and attach things to it I want easy access to. Not a great picture, but shows the Maxtrax, fire...
