    CA Coastal Commission to revoke [ALL] OHV access to Pismo Dunes

    Pismo has become completely stupid on a scale that makes this proposal expected. Hundreds of massive toy haulers dragged out on the dunes bro trucks ripping around 24/7 along with modified dune machines plus the beach party rave trend. Its bonkers. I’m actually surprised its been allowed for as...

    Are there any good fully enclosed travel trailers?

    Little Snoozy but they went belly up with deposits owed. But Caught a video somewhere that someone bought the molds and were building a modern Engineered composite version now just in the last few months.

    Are there any good fully enclosed travel trailers?

    There is a very similar one to the globe but slightly bigger. Can’t recall the name but it was recently bought revamped and is being built with engineered composites vs just chopper spray gun.

    My Journey

    Jerry your not alone in the COVID is real camp?. Its hard staying away from family and friends especially with young kids. I think that the crack down ie SIP was effective before we saw wide spread infections and losses. As a result for most people they had no direct experience with COVID. Only...

    Leaving thin lite weight portable panels out in the rain?

    I have left my two small 10watt hard panels out all yr around zero issues. The light weight folding with canvas backing type stuff I wouldn’t given they likely will collect water etc behind the panels and likely won’t do well.

    Tundra TRD Pro for first overland vehicle?

    Two neighbors told me the same thing when I was contemplating a new truck. Which is a big reason I didn’t look at Toyota after selling my Old Sequoia to my dad. A buddy has the F150 3.5 eco boost with whatever they had before the 10spd, 6 spd? xtra cab extra load package with a full time FWC on...

    Tundra TRD Pro for first overland vehicle?

    Yep got $12,500 off my $82,400 Stickered Expedition. I got a 100% loaded Expedition Heavy tow pack, HD locking rear end, for less than what I could get the dealers to do on the old Yukon Denali with no extras. I’m coming from 25 yrs of Toyota ownership too! I didn’t even bother looking at...

    My Journey

    1913 there was a electric train line from Oakland CA to Sacramento CA. The last train to run that line was 1957. One is still run on a short spur line out of a small museum in the delta today. One of the very first town’s in the US to be fully electric was Bodie CA. The power came from a hydro...

    Wife needs indoor accommodations....what is worth buying?

    I was involved in building a racing sailboat one design. There is a saying in boat building business. Fastest way to make your first million is to start with 2 million?. RV business is 20x worse. Don’t do it?. 19ft end to end and ideally can fit under a standard 7 ft garage door header is...

    How do you haul mountain bikes on a trailer with a RTT?

    Bikes are a problem. A friend just did a two week trip with her kids and 19ft bunk house travel trailer. 4 Bikes on the rear of the travel trailer was too much levered load caused some problems with the receiver setup on the trailer. Yesterday we did our hot 3.5hr drive up to Yosemite area with...

    Wife needs indoor accommodations....what is worth buying?

    Just learned something campers with no indoor cooking accommodations are not Harvest Host compatible. Just a FYI given Harvest host is a great alternative to boondocking and avoiding the Rv/camp grounds.

    Wife needs indoor accommodations....what is worth buying?

    The Opus is assembled in CA, built in china and likely related to the Black Series, likely made by the same people in China. Yes its expensive I like its size, I like the layout. But too expensive and too tall for typical 7ft garage door. I think Opus is coming close to the right size, and some...

    Camping Totes or Dry Food Storage

    I can stack two high in the 2019 Expedition. 28 1/4. Inches high two stacked. My 07 Sequoia had more head room no 3rd row under the floor. So I lost my sleeping bag top stash spot. But Floor width wise I gained some so probably about the same useful space behind the 2nd row in the 2019...
