    How do you carry your fly rods?

    SWEET BIKE That is an awesome set-up for a bike. I need to pimp out my new Krampus a little bit to get some weight off my back. Great inspiration!

    Toyota Sienna lift

    I would love to lift my wife's Sienna. I've searched around a bit and haven't been able to find anything for up front. Does anyone know where I could look? There is a possibility that it may soon be mine and it would look pretty sweet with a little lift and some AT tires.

    Stock P-Rated Tires on Colorado Passes?

    I did Imogene in my stock F150 with p-rated 265/70/17's. I went slow and chose my lines carefully. I did not air down, No problems. Have fun.

    JUMPING IN HEAD FIRST

    I decided to stick with my roots. I got a Krampus. I'll wait to get into a motorbike, maybe in a few years I can afford my dream. Thanks for all the great advice.

    Cooper Discoverer S/T Maxx

    I've got over 20k miles on mine. They're a great tire. I use mine mostly on the highway and I like knowing that when I do get to go off road they will handle it. That being said, they're very loud now. A lot louder than last summer when I first got them. I also noticed last week that when it's...

    1500 series quad cab overlanders....your thought please.

    I took my bone stock F150 super crew short bed up Imogene with no problems. It had the 265/70/17 P rated tires on it. I slammed it down hard a couple times because I wasn't paying attention. Since then I've lifted it and put on some 33's. I'm still working the up courage to tackle Elephant Hill...

    KRAMPUS

    I hadn't been on a hardtail in 20 years! Just a couple big water bottles and some stuff in a seat bag. So much fun to just on and go. I'm going to put a smaller chainring up front to help with the climbs and a more comfortable seat to help me. Can't wait to get some more miles on it.

    KRAMPUS

    I demoed a Krampus in the fall and fell in love with it. The other day I brought home my very own Lg. Krampus Ops. Couldn't be happier. I spent about 4 hours on it yesterday exploring some rough roads around the house. It was fantastic. Simple. Quiet. Fun. My new favorite for sure. No more...

    JUMPING IN HEAD FIRST

    Thanks. Keep it coming. The big GS is what started this whole mess. Since then I've really focused on the KLR. I'm concerned that it may not be ideal for the majority of its life spent on the road. Now i'm eyeballing the Tenere and V-strom. Used they are pretty affordable. I can't afford a fine...

    JUMPING IN HEAD FIRST

    Thanks for the quick replies everyone. I just noticed the "getting started" area. I think I'll spend some time in there. Thanks again.

    JUMPING IN HEAD FIRST

    I've been contemplating getting a motorcycle for years now. Grew up lusting after the Dakars in all their exotic locations around the world. Has anyone here gone straight to the top and bought a big bike right off the bat? I've never owned a motorcycle in my life, but have ridden a lot. I don't...

    F150 overland build

    Hey Raul, Quick question. It looks like you mounted the RTT rack to the inside of your bed? Wondering why you didn't throw it up on top of the bed rails? Thanks.

    Kevin's 2001 Supercrew F150 log (not build) thread

    Looks like you had a little bit of fun before things went south. Sorry to hear about the break. Anywho, I have Bilsteins set at 1.75 and have 255-80-17 ST MAXX. Truck does really well off road and only took a 2 MPG hit. I'm planning on some skids and sliders soon and then I'm going to see what...

    Overland F-150, Tacoma or?

    I went through this issue 3 months ago (minus the camper part). I really, really, really wanted a tacoma to replace an old 86 xtra cab I had 10 years ago. I drove the Tacoma and Frontier back to back and was really in a bind making a decision. Both dealers wanted to steal my trade-in from me. On...

    Taller tires / gearing question

    I got a 13 super crew XLT with 3.55 ratio this fall. It had P rated 265-70-17s and I was getting 19.3 MPG. I threw on some 255-8-17 ST MAXX and my mileage dropped to 17.3. When I brought it in to have the computer re-calibrated for the bigger tires I still was getting 17.3 MPG. So to answer your...

    new body style F150 overland builds?

    Here's my 13 super crew with 33's. I love this truck. I thought I really wanted a Tacoma/Frontier until I jumped in the F150. I have Bilstein adjustable shocks I need to put on. Also plan on some sliders and some skid plates from RCI, maybe a tube front bumper. That's about the extent of my...

    "Skinny" tires on a Full-Size?

    255-80-17 I just got some 33x10 ST MAX for my truck. No lift, no rubbing and it hasn't affected my MPG's too much. Went from 19.2 to 18.9 MPG according to the computer.
