I'm shopping 12v refrigerators but I've been using a 20-year-old Coleman Xtreme 5-day cooler. It does what it says. The outer dimensions are the same as one of my larger coolers, but this one has insulation that is ~1½" thick. The secret for long ice life is using ice cubes from your freezer...
I picked mine up as the Delorme models were being discontinued by REI and were steeply discounted - thanks to a tip from a member here. My schedule doesn't always mesh with that of my wife or other cohorts, and sometimes I want to spend a few days in the mountains anyway. Cell reception is 30...
I finally got to try out my GoTreads in some mud. I picked them up at Overland Expo East in 2016. They were $100 a pair at the show.
Recently one of my guys called me and had his 3/4-ton work van get bogged down in a wet grassy field. We weren't in pure soup, but walking over the ground...
A few years ago, I had the guys in built JKs on 35s and 37s shaking their heads at what my stock XJ on Michelin street tires could do. I had a rear locker and cowl snorkel, but they didn't need to know about those. :peepwall: We were only riding through Shoe Creek. They seemed to think the...
I picked up http://amazon.com/gp/product/B010GSU294 a couple months ago. It works fine, but I'm a big guy and would definitely like a little more room. How small it packs down is really nice though.
You guys should also look into the a exchanger plumbed into the cooling system with onboard water.

We warm the water up with the Coleman stove.
I want to test out one of these in the near future.

I always carry a liquid fuel Northstar like perterra. The piezo igniter just makes it too easy. We cook off old single and dual burner stoves too. I top everything up before we head out and carry a fresh gallon of Coleman fuel. It's nice knowing I have at least an extra gallon of something I...
I put some pre-load on the tent floor to verify that the jaw (or whatever you like to call the horizontal rib and channel that interlock the two halves) is solidly engaged when I establish the ladder adjustment. This is why the ladder has some "slack" when unloaded. Also, my weight, once in...
We've had our Smitty RTT for a couple years now. Overall it has been great, but I don't leave anything alone. I've done a few minor things, like lengthen the cover straps to allow for the bedding to be closed inside as intended. The cover was plenty big enough, but the straps were a bit...
If you guys have leaks, see if this stuff is compatible with your substrate. https://www.geocelusa.com/product/2315lrf-leak-repair-fibered-brushable-coating/ In 15+ years of commercial building maintenance, this is the best stuff I've found. We have ~160 buildings and some 2 million square...
