If weight and size is NOT an issue then the Costco 6v golf cart batteries are the cheapest per amp hour you can get. For the heat aspect I would use 12v computer fans to at least keep you at ambient or slightly under. You will only need them when the sun is shinning so the panels will give...

Another big vote for Scheel-Man Toby the US guy has a Sprinter and loves to travel, he is also super helpful with questions. I have 18k miles on mine and as an amputee with a bad back/pelvis I have NEVER been comfortable till now. Dog loves them also :)

Yeah, I stop by the store in Mesa, Az (Phoenix area) often and Will along with his shop dude Kyle are great folks to deal with.

Loved my Troopy and glad to have you back stateside, I am Phx also if you ever need someone to run and camp with. Camelback Toyota was happy to order all the parts I wanted as long as I knew the numbers (they can NOT look up most Troopy stuff). Oh and if you are a member of the Copper State...

I have been doing plenty of 3-4 day trips with a few day trips and overnighters lately. I gas up and avoid locals but try to keep some money coming into these small economies. I personally think if someone is high risk they should protect themselves (I have some family in that group and have not...

I might just give up going on my own trip and just enjoy the adventuretaco blog :) Even though I just got home from El Camino del Diablo I want to head out the door after seeing all these pics, oh and your writing is as good as always. Thanks for taking the time, I know it is a pain but we here...

For anyone who is wondering about customer service and Equipt as a company I have to say that Paul is as OG in the USA Overland world as it gets. I remember sitting around campfires in 2007 with the ENTIRE overland US industry and Paul was right there (he was the 1st bringing in tents &...

Good to see I am not the only one out social isolating in the backcountry.... Great pics and you are in an area I enjoy greatly.

I have the shorty Ecoboost Transit and love it, we wheel some pretty tough trails here in the desert southwest. With a Sportsmobile Poptop I get the best of all worlds, however if I did more winter camping I would get the mid roof, not as tall as a high but plenty of room to move around. And...

That modular advice is some excellent advice right there.... I am a "build it thrice" kind of guy, 1st time is my original idea, 2nd is improvements after living with it a while and 3rd is oh yeah that is a good idea based on others comments......I am never really done. But that only works on...

Looks great and enjoy it, I know I did

Your trips are actually getting me to take more pics.... I am still not writing & posting like I used to, but I am getting out more and my Go See It list is getting longer and longer ;) Thanks for all your hard work.

Sold to a happy new owner with all the goodies.... Funny thing is I am looking forward to camping with him and seeing what cool stuff he does with it.

No not going, bummed, so it will be elsewhere in the desert southwest. No cheap tacos but no other people at least.

Thanks for keeping the content flowing.....but also keep us updated on your current status and what you are up to.

Overland Gear Guy is a good dude and makes killer stuff.....so he knows biz and know customer service. Which makes this suck more being on the other side and getting ripped like this. Having just did my van interior I know I would charge a bunch of labor cost as it is hard work, but these...

As seen in Overland Journal I have a Treehouse for sale (truck already gone), it is all aluminum, has better side access with the big doors and it was a great camping setup before I got my van. It has a Darche 270 Awning (w/ walls) already installed and a big solar panel ready to go. I have a...

Those are really amazing pics... I will be back in Baja in April and can't wait.

That is great, and I am sure you are right that the instructions were redone "vague" to save us from the lawyers.

Not to be "that guy" but every time you crack into or add to wiring you add a chance for failure. I would suggest a sticker on the dash or teach yourself to do a walk around before leaving. I have done that for years and it is amazing how many times it has saved me or a buddy losing something.
