even at the 20 hour rate though, how does that compare to a better quality battery that costs 3x as much or more? I just checked, and the Optima Yellowtop battery in the same size has a 20 hour capacity of 66Ah, and costs $264.99. For a long term solution that needs to be uber reliable, I...

http://www.walmart.com/ip/20531543 this one? Is it really 122 aH? that's 1.4kWh right? That seems far higher than I was expecting, I just want to confirm that that's right.

don't know if it's been said, but you kinda can't go wrong with just a pair of LL Bean duck boots. Waterproof, flexible enough to drive in, comfortable, and only $109. Plus, if you wear them out, decide you don't like them, you can return them. Even if they're completely trashed.

Does anybody have a recommendation for a "house" battery to use that can store the most aH for the least money. The number of deep cycles it can stand is not important, it is only temporary and will probably only get used a couple of times.

it is my absolute dream to do something like this. I'm envious of your children, they'll learn more from this experience than anything else in their lives and be truly amazing and interesting people afterwards.

Took a couple of pictures today while filling up with gas.

I don't think you got the joke.

Older jeeps are so reliable and desirable that NGOs around the world have been racing to snap up models from the 80s and 90s. oh wait....

What's funny about this, is that it's Jeep owners who are always going on and on about how their vehicles are so superior because it's "proven" technology, and "classic." So in this analogy the Jeep is the rotary phone and the Land Cruiser is an iPhone

I just bought a new Kelty sleeping bag that I'm really impressed with. They're about the same price as the ones you're looking at.

hahaha, true true. Although I can count on one hand the number of times I've seen another Land Cruiser on the road.

That is too cool. You did an amazing job.

Love your site! Thanks for posting this. I like the BAV section.

maybe. Those don't look like the interiors are modeled though, at least not in the detail required to design something to go into the interior.

I don't know. I was originally looking at March, but I'm getting restless.

that is not an accurate analogy at all. Climbing Everest without oxygen is a deliberate goal, kind of like driving across Africa in a Jeep. It wouldn't be fair to say they planned poorly because they used a Jeep instead of a Land Cruiser, that would be a much more accurate analogy.

right, no rear AC. I did not know that the rear AC changed the shape of the cargo area.

I know this may be an odd question, but does anybody have an autocad or other rendering of the interior of the cargo area of the 100 series? If not I'm going to be setting out to take as many measurements as necessary to start working on something like this in order to facilitate building a...

That is a pretty sweet setup you've got there!
