Since you are east coast go visit the Snap Treehouse folks. I love mine, they are quicker to build than others and can be custom ordered as you want. https://snapoutfitters.com/ There are plenty of pics of mine here and on IG, FB

the 5x160 bolt pattern for the Transit is hard to find. If I remember right there are the Method Trail 701 like I have (slightly difference offset), Moto Metal and 1 other I can't remember. The fordtransitusa.com forum would be a good resource. If all you need is a spare there are plenty of...

That is pretty good.... I will admit buying a cheap label maker has made it a little more fun to go back to past work and makes me smile when I look at looms vs the dread I used to feel.

I love the KofA area and the local Quartzite 4wd club puts out a great guide book to the surrounding area. The KofA stone cabin is one of our favorite overnight spots.

Reminds me of the shepards homes the Basque use. Very cool

Bummer that you have to sell.... For anyone that is curious I have known Waymon for years and he takes METICULOUS care of vehicles, to the point that I usually make fun of him. But you are buying something that will be good as new. Again bummed that we didn't get to do a van outing but happy...

We have a Sportsmobile poptop on our Transit and I am about to build version 2 of the interior. I purposely let a large center isle for using the van in everyday life and so I could throw down a single sleep pad when in stealth mode (would be times I am solo and just a quick road stop). We will...

Truely sucks.....I also started to worry when Garmin bought Delorme. And our worries have been justified. All I can say is give feedback through Garmin social media, customer service is worthless but we do live in a world where social matters more everyday.

Wow that is seriously work compared to some strut spacers... Really looking forward to what you come up with.

Is this a spacer lift or do you have new spindles or lower control arms? Just curious about the CV angles and how the van will handle offroad.

I don't have an inverter but everything Victron makes seems to have better info and controls through the app. There is a Victron community forum that I have gotten great info from and posted questions on. https://community.victronenergy.com/index.html

I love my Victron gear and have it in 2 builds. The only thing I will say is the Color Control GX is not needed honestly most of the time. I installed it in my van and have taken it out since everything is bluetooth and I can monitor and control each item from my phone. You might want some...

I have owned a number of fridges over the last 12yrs... Engel classic way back when National Luna Weekender 52L ARB low profile 63qt Dometic 75L dual compartment. All my travel has been 2-4 people with resupply once a week, used for beverages and cold food. National Luna has been the most...

There is also the Sonora Rally .... I have also been a part of the NORRA Mex 1k for a number of years and since it all about fun I think you could do it if you were more about the experience than beating your rig to death. VW Syncro vans, Porsche 911's and other less than normal vehicles have...

Well you are everyone else's Godsend :) I have ton's of folks who want the Treehouse but I have been wanted to sell as a combo or find a truck buyer. PM sent

Good on ya for keeping at it... Thanks for the info on the travel CPAP, I am 200lbs and snore like crazy so I just started using a CPAP at home, now I can try for one to travel with.

Great pics and write, your blog is one I have bookmarked at work as safe to have on a screen when someone walks by :) I like your writing style and it makes me want to stop for more pics on my outings.

I love the looped ends as I can put them around a bar, a tie down, a carbiner or whatever. I do have a couple of really long straight ends in case I want to go around a big load but honestly 99% of the time I am using the looped ends.

I just ordered more Rollercam straps and paid full price as I didn't want anyone thinking I was touting freebies. I love these things and everyone I have loaned one to has ended up buying them also. https://www.rollercam.com/ Price is really easy to handle and I usually order longer and cut to...

I love my Ecoboosted Transit, the torque comes on at 2k rpm and I dyno'ed it after the 4wd conversion and big tires and still had 358ftlbs. Plus parts are easy to get and Ford dealers are everywhere. If you want the torque of a diesel without all the hassle get a Transit Ecoboost and be done.
