    But, if you didn't dress up in ExOfficio clothes, it wasn't authentic. Especially so if you didn't have zippers on your pant legs. So, you have to go back and properly dress up. You need several thousands of dollars in other doo-dads, too. Oh, last thing....don't forget your HAM radio...

    Shower and toilet enclosure thread

    I've considered using some of the GRP sand ladders in order to save space instead of buying one of the teak shower 'mats'. As with all activities that are weight sensitive, the more uses an item has, the better it is.

    Taco for Pan American trip?

    I'm taking a low-mileage, stock '02 Taco to Chile in the summer of '14 or early in '15. I bought it based (partially) on the reflections of folks on this forum and feedback from family and friends from Colombia, Chile and Argentina. I'm not worried about parts availability. I'll take a few of...
