    theDangerz- still going, different rig, new adventures

    Havent updated here in a bit- we are loving the mainland just as much as we loved baja. Still swelteringly hot, but seems to be dropping slightly. Also have started seeing a few tourists arrive. A few small problems arose with the bus, but were slowing finding parts and working them out...

    theDangerz- still going, different rig, new adventures

    Um... Thanks Christian, but I think we will stick with our current speed. Funny actually. a few years ago (before the bus) i lost my license for an excessive number of speeding tickets in a 3 months span. Now im wondering what the hell is wrong with the guys flying past us with the finger...

    theDangerz- still going, different rig, new adventures

    Thanks for the support guys! And Wiley's response is spot on. For the decade it took jen to convince me to do this and the 5 years we spent planning, saving, stressing etc- it feels F'in great! I only wish i would have listened sooner...dont wait. If you have the dream, either do it now or set...

    theDangerz- still going, different rig, new adventures

    Sorry we havent gotten around to this sooner, but thought it was well past time to start a thread of our journeys and meet others currently doing the same. Many of you have helped out as we prepared for the trip others have helped along the way already, but we spent the last 5 years downsizing...

    Detachable or Quick-Release Solar Panel Mod (show me)

    pretty cool tonka. doesnt look like it has a built in place to lock it, but i could probably drill another set of holes. It looks like this might even allow me to tilt it while in place for better sun, and then remove entirely if needed. good find! anybody else?? surely some of you have...

    Detachable or Quick-Release Solar Panel Mod (show me)

    I cant count the number of solar install threads I've read where the common opinion is that its best to have panel(s) mounted so that they can be removed and setup in full sun or at the best angle. What I'm not seeing is ideas/details (or better yet photos) of how you did it. In my particular...
