Jeff, I am afraid that, IME, trailers are WAY tougher on gear than a vehicle. I carry my Engel 45 in the back of my LC. M

We sell the Harken Lift (made in USA) which is inexpensive, designed to do the job, and easy to use. One person can easily remove or remount a tent in minutes. M

On a one year, 'round the World expedition I would consider ease of deployment, weather and insect resistance, and DURABILITY. Cots and lightweight folding solutions, ground tents pitched on the roof, etc. are going to cause grief, IMO.

My truck has Dynamat EVERYWHERE in the crew cab. Inside door panels and door skins, headliner, rear cab wall, and floor with extra 1/2" of the foam matting that Dynamat makes. Took two guys all day to install. Results are as above, and audio and conversation is a lot clearer. Sound levels went...

Had a complete Dynamat install done today on my F350 SD. Doors, floor, roof, hood, and back of the cab. I does sound better even though the db level is only slightly less than before. There seems to be less ambient high-frequency noise. Gauges tomorrow. Then tires.

We do resell some trade ins, demo tents etc., but we don't often have them We are trying to get a 'rental fleet' together so people can try them out before buying. Michael - got your e-mail. Sorry I have not yet responded, been REALLY bust shipping tents and working on my truck. I will get back...

Looking for used AutoHome tents. Please contact us if your see one for sale (that you're not going to buy), or if you are selling. We will also take used AutoHome tent trade-ins. No cash for clunkers, however. Mike@autohomeus.com

Why not just alter the bolt handle on the Swede and have it scoped. This will cost a fraction of the proce of a new rifle and quality scope. The 6.5 X 55 is a great cartridge... better than the 7.62 X 39 IMO.

The 7.3L SD F350 that I own goes down the road pretty well. Not as good as my Expedition, or even my 80 LC. But it has power that the others don't, even though the 7.3L is low on the ration of power to displacement... it's an industrial engine. I expect some improvement with new Revos and some...

DAN -- Looks like you had a great trip - lots of beautiful pictures. I got out for a trip to a friend in Hailey, ID. Part 'work' and part play. Need to go fishing but running out of Summer. M

Thanks all. Dan - did you have any issues keeping the MTRs balanced and true? The set I ran on my 60 were a PITA to keep in trim, and wore quickly. I am resolved on another set of Revos. M

Looks like a medium Maggiolina Topline. Killer price, since a medium Maggiolina is about $2699 to $2999 new. If cared for, they just don't wear out...

This whole fly-fishing thing is a long and slippery slope. Totally addictive. Congratulations, I think YOU were hooked.

I would not be afraid of a moderately high mileage Ford truck with good maintenance. I've owned a number of them that I drove to very high miles with minor problems. My Expedition (5.4) has 180K and runs very well. My F350 (7.3L DT) nly has 70K miles, so it is too soon to tell...

Multiple crossbars are a good idea on tents that are on gutter mount racks. Even if the tent does not require the support, the extra contacts points distribute the weight across the gutters better. The pounding can cause the tower feet to crack the caulking in the gutters... and cause A and B...

Jack, that is the kind of data I needed. My Revos are at about 25K miles and show little wear. And my modded 80 is not a lightweight truck. I am now thinking that Revos in LR - E are the way to go.

I am preparing to 'retire' my F350 with either of the two tires above - in 285/75/R16. I would probably go larger, but this would require aa leveling kit on the truck, and it is tall enough already. And, yes, I read the tire FAQ about the Toyo MTs... Love the 285/75/R16 (LRD) Revos on my LC...

My '96 Landcruiser has an 44 gal. aux tank with parallel, redundant fuel system all the way to the engine compartment. It has the non-USA dual filler neck and has always passed CA smog. The operation of the system is simple and reliable. The wiring and switching is more complicated than a single...

The OverZone is NOT cotton canvas. It won't leak in actual camping conditions. The top is very waterproof, and the sides are highly water resistant, and breathable. It is always better to NOT spray your tent with a high pressure hose. It accomplishes nothing and can damage the fabric. Read...
