    Student Project: Front Bumper & Recover R&D

    Lots of great ideas here so far. My take is that there are compromises with every design. Just remember to plot your design to meet your objective and don't worry about incorporating features unless those features are in support of your design objective. One size does NOT fit all. Lots of...

    $50-$70 Amazon Snorkels

    At $35.51, why wouldn't you get it? I'd venture to say it will perform on par with the high enders if careful attention was is given to installation. If you are a proponent of snorkels, it will be much better than not having one at all. If you want a snorkel for aesthetics these will be...

    Sea salt

    One reason is that a percentage less sea salt is required to achieve the desired taste affect.

    Defender 110 Beach Runner

    Well, that is certainly one way to look at it. I am sure there are those who's perspective on a $235,000 Defender will be quite different. In recent years the US Dollar has devalued much more than I like but I still struggle to justify any automobile valued that high. Does anyone know how...

    KiraVan - The Most Insane Truck Ever Built

    I guess it's his money, he can do what he wishes with it You know, there a lot of our neighbors looking at our garages, driveways and safari costumes thinking we are crazy to be spending all that money to..."go camping?" It's all relative

    Interesting Craigslist find

    Here's an interesting take on equipping your trailer for overlanding....several hundreds of feet over land. -No affiliation with seller and all the rest of the boilerplate disclaimer. http://okaloosa.craigslist.org/bfs/4383139363.html

    Utility Trailer With Elevated RTT + Dirt Bike Transportation

    How about mounting the RTT in a forward position? You can position the rack at a height above the natural position of the moto's front tire and fender (when parked on the trailer) and the front half of the RTT can extend a little over the trailer tongue. This can add some to the tongue weight...

    Tipi vs Tent

    I grew up in Eastern Montana feeding cattle in those temps. I couldn't wait until I was old enough to flee to Southern climates. Tent camping in those temps is for far better men than me, I am very impressed. Best of luck on your search for the best shelter.

    2016 Ford SVT Bronco

    Ha Ha Ha, that's pretty good. That article reads like any number of ExPo posts suggesting Toyota or Jeep needs to field a disel, solid axle product for the NA market. I agree....too bad it is April 1st and not a scoop

    Overland Journal: G-Wagen

    I would probably say the frustration and disappointment is where the comparison can be drawn. We can come up with any number of justifying statements we want but the bottom line is that when an automobile's performance doesn't live up to your expectation, it is frustrating and disappointing...

    Stainless Steel Plates

    So true! My SS plates became yard sale fodder after two uses in favor of some el cheapo plastic ones. I sort of snicker at the Snow Peak ones, just glad I never sprung for a set without test driving them first.

    How do you store your (deep) sockets?

    Kudos to everyone with pristine tools and tool rolls. Mine tool rolls and tanker tool bag are a sandy, greasy and pet hair ridden mess in comparison.

    MY 2001 KLR650

    Glad the deer incident didn't turn out worse. The look of the KLR is really different without the fairing. I appreciate these bikes' attributes, as a KLR owner myself. I really enjoy the fairing on my '09 though, at this point I would have a hard time adopting/adapting to the 'naked KLR'.
