    Recommend me a canoe (2 adults + 2dogs)

    Floated lots of miles down the Platte River and various lakes in my 18' Grumman Lightweight canoe back in the day. Easy to handle on/off the vehicle and tough. Not the best for heat of summer canoeing though ;-). But unbeatable for $200! My folks also had a beautiful Old Town wood and canvas...

    Is Cook Partner the best? Money vs. Quality

    I've used all kinds of grills and griddles for meat and other edibles when camping including the Partner's. However I bought one of these this past summer and it truly is my favorite. Easy to clean (the Partner isn't), puts a great sear on whatever you're cooking, double duty for hash...

    AT Horizon Replcacement Battery

    Ken, Starting with identical batteries will go along way to getting good battery longevity in a dual set-up. Your plan should be fine. Although I can't isolate one of my dual batteries in my trailer(s), and just as Brad stated, no problemo to date. Although I don't use the queen size dual...

    Crossing the Andes

    The one thing we found odd were the lack of veggies and reluctance appetite for salads in the La Pampa region; especially given the latitude and agricultural base. Although all the meats were incredible including the home-made sausages after a week of steady on protein we were ready for a...

    100 series factory Aux tank

    FWIW mine is "Type A" in the diagram and except for an errant California fuel vapor collector once in a while it works fine. Simple.

    Crossing the Andes

    The Argentine beef is really wonderful. Much more flavor and texture than stateside. And of course the Dulce de Leche is a must after the BBQ! Great photos and vid Scott! Have fun.

    AT Horizon Replcacement Battery

    I can attest to the reliability and perfect performance of dual Lifeline's (G31) in my then Horizon and now my KK. In a sealed area, as the nose box of your Horizon for instance, you will want an internally venting battery IMO. However I am running Odysseys in my LC in the main and aux...

    Is Cook Partner the best? Money vs. Quality

    From my 3-year experience with the Cook Partner stove I found their burners to be "under-rated" BTU wise. They have very strong output. You do give up a little on the simmer side but I solved that when a light simmer was needed by using an aluminum disk between the burner grate and the pan...

    Did Nissan Kill the SFA for Toyota???

    Is your current customer going to add an aux tank for his Alaska trip? And if he is how are you going to deal with the canister? You are right...if I was employed right now...that is EXACTLY what I would be doing. Although the comfort and overall performance of the IFS is nice for most of...

    Which fridge and why?... Power options?

    Agreed! We bought a 50L 4+ years ago (Waeco) and then this past summer added a 25L to primarily use as just a freezer for longer trips. But it is super nice to have this flexibility depending on needs.
