I carry those as well, but after encountering a fallen tree in Wisconsin I thought a chainsaw would be a nice and way to get back on the trail quickly (plus if I'm vacation I want to minimize manual labor lol). Plus it always seems I have stuff that needs cleaned up around the house.

They certainly are, in the process of selling of my 2-stroke stuff and converting to the Lithium side. I don't do landscaping commercially anymore, so this just makes more sense when it comes to maintenance.

For Christmas this year, I asked Santa for a new Dewalt 60V 16" cordless chainsaw. And he delivered it early! Even with proper storage, it always seemed my 2-smoke saw was temperamental at the worst possible times, Plus altitude changes exacerbate startup issues. I use a saw maybe 10 times a...

It's currently residing on the Driver's side as I'm in winter prep mode, the right side has my max trax, scraper, shovels, etc. Once I reconfigure my bed drawer layout, I'll look into weight distribution and try to get it all evened up. The house battery is on the right, and I'm planning on...

This is true, but it seems I'm always working on something outside of overlanding as well. Or I have a friend/family member that needs help with something.

There's nothing worse than having tools scattered all over in the box..

When you drive a 22 year old truck, you have to be prepared to fix issues as they crop up. I have been carrying a generic tool set, but was lacking many larger tools needed to do more indepth repairs. Lowes had these 26" 5 drawer tool boxes on sale for $79. They have ball bearing drawer...

Good lord that Astro is gettin' after it. Do you have any video links of those trips?

Thanks! So far I'm very happy with its performance and integration with various apps. I have my Garmin Inreach mini syncd with ofine maps now as well for higher accuracy navigation. I also installed a sprint Hotspot in the truck so it has internet connectivity as soon as I start the truck. The...

I try to keep my raptor parts stealing down to the real good bits, $5000 worth of shocks (new retail price through Ford) on a 22 year old truck with stock wheels makes for a funny conversation starter. A friend has a 3D printer, so we may try to create the 'Craptor' badge and apply it to the...

Thank you! It's coming along nicely, next up will be more camper oriented mods.

Thanks! Life's too short not to have a sense of humor haha.

To be honest, im not even sure which ones they are. A friend works for a tractor factory and these were blemished. They were the best kind of price. The rest of the lighting is generic LEDs off Amazon (mainly Nilight). I have had good luck with them, and if a tree branch breaks one I'm out...

It fits my 'Ballin on a budget' theme. Hah

Very nice! For the money and ease of install, they're hard to beat. Overall quality seems pretty decent, and I'm carrying a couple spare relays and fuses just incase I have an issue with the generic ones.

Its kind of like the Ron White joke abour air travel. Nervous Passenger - "If the engines go out, how far do you think we will make it?" Ron white - "All the way to the crash site. I bet we beat the paramedics by fifteen minutes "

I decided to play around on photoshop today to add a startup splash screen to the Android Radio. It looks great! And of course, I had to add my own touch. Plus seeing how it has Raptor shocks..

My Christmas present from Britani came early today! (We had a mutual agreement to give each other's gifts early, because we are not good at keeping surprises). Its a 7" Android powered Atoto S8 headunit, with DVR dash cam, external GPS antenna, and steering controls. This runs on a modified...

This weekend I finished up my LED lighting on the truck, as I wanted to be able to have perimeter lighting as well as various zones depending on the situation we are in. Each zone is individually switched via my 6 gang fuse/relay box. The air compressor and electric cooling fan override are also...

They are Nordic lights, and they have great output.
