Hi all, So I have a curious question and really haven't found any reason why. Since I am one who likes the tall, skinny tires, I have been a fan of the 255/85-16. The downside is, there are very limited selections available in that size and many are MT type tires (I have a set of Toyo MT on...

Reason for selling is, my health is not allowing me to complete this project. I was building it as a very reliable and capable rigs, for overland traveling. It was a hard decision to come to grips that age and health are not what they used to be. $14,500 Located in San Diego, CA Full Build...

SxS/Quad Hauling or Squaredrop Trailer Located in San Diego, CA $3800 I was going to build a Squaredrop camper on this chassis but going a different direction due to health issues. I bought this from another ExPo member. This is one of two prototypes build for the US Air Force Special Ops...

Hi all, Long time member but new to "VanLife". Well not 100% new as I had a couple vans in my distant past... like before digital cameras and I didn't take any film pics back then. LOL Well I am now starting in a new direction for my overlanding journey. As I am getting older, I am having...

Hi all, So I have been thinking of a camp trailer for quite a while. Our first delve into the overland world was back in 2007 when we picked up a Kamparoo Cub "clam shell" style trailer. We had a lot of fun and great trips with it. We moved to a truck/popup camper, then was out of the...

Hi all, This happened to come across my YouTube feed and I hadn't heard anything mentioned of it. The new Patriot Campers ST5 Super Tourer. This thing is slick. I am sure it will end up in the 6 figure price range so not likely going to see many of them around.

Let's go back in time, to Oct 2021. I had been working on my M1010 project ( Desert Turtle ) off and on for a bit. After a lot of consideration, I felt it would be easier to buy a newer truck, with modern features and swap the ambo box over. I started looking for suitable options. Sadly this...

Hi all, I had this popup on FB and IG. Looking at this and watching the videos, it seems like it could be a nice tool that can replace a number of individual items with one unit. I haven't really seen any "real world" tests or reviews and was curious if anyone has used one of these...

Hi all, We used to own a Kamparoo clam shell style camper and overall enjoyed it. At one time Adventure Trailers (AT) used to build one and a few other company (many in Australia) but it seems they have gone away. We liked the small, closed footprint, lightweight and hard floor/full standing...

Hi all, Just happened across ROC trailers from a ExPo classified ad and did a search here, to find out some info. I was surprised to not find anything. Does anyone have any experience with these trailers? Really liking the design and construction. https://roctrailers.com/home

I figured I should start up a thread on our newest purchase. April this year (2023) I had a total need replacement. Once I was healed up enough to start driving again, I found with our 1999 Cherokee, the pedals are offset a little to the left and the trans tunnel has a outward slope to it...

This just dropped and I am not sure if anyone posted it. Very well done approach to testing wide tires versus narrow tires.

Well... picked up a 2013 Xterra Pro-4X last night. Super clean and just over 65K miles. Outside of the color (really wanted the blue or green), it is exactly as I wanted. Moving over to this from my clean '99 Jeep Cherokee. I recently had a knee replacement and found with the narrow footwell...

Well, I have been slooowly building up a 1984 Chevy CUCV M1010 ambo into a camper but things slowed greatly due to the pandemic/supply issues. Over the last 3 years my right knee has been getting worse (already 3 surgeries on it) and the knee replacement I have been putting off for over 6 years...

Hi all, I am looking to change the direction of how I build out my M1010 camper conversion. Originally I was going to use mostly all aluminum and composite panels for the cabinet build outs. With the cost of materials through the roof, I am considering switching over to birch ply for most of...

Hi all, Need to pick brains for a moment. My M1010 project is slowly moving along and I am getting close to the point I need to attach the inner wall panels. I have researched a few things but really don't have a clear winner on what to use. I am using .090" FRP panels to do the ceiling and...

Man if I wasn't already deep into my build projects, I would pick this up. Looks like a great start for a good rig that is well priced. No affiliation, just popped up on FB Marketplace https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1576488766049377 $10,900 (in Garden Grove, CA ) Miles 132,000...

Hi all, I am trying to source a Manchester propane tank model 6815. Google searches has not found anyone with them in stock and was just putting out if anyone has a source for this specific model. This fits the space I need exactly, with the most capacity I can get. Any help would be...
