Ryan, sent you a PM ... interested.

I think I recall seeing that posted under "The Buddy Expedition" ... and a quick search on that string confirms. Here's the first thread I came to (from earlier this year) referencing that name...

Need more info on this, specifically the trans ... I wasn't aware they were available with an MT, am I reading that right? Is it some obscure option, a typo, conversion ... ?? :D ... inquiring minds want to know!! ... and man, RMP&O, I'm dying to see that ute come together, can't wait until...

Agreed; x1000 on the first part, especially. For me the UJOR-NV is not likely the *next* vehicle unless it truly becomes a viable option in the next 6-8 months ... and I don't see that as particularly likely. More probable (for me) is that it's somewhere down the line, in a year or three...

I'm glad to see you've been keeping your shop (and yourself!) quite busy; and in fact, this thread is one of my regular reads on the forum ... so I suspect I already know the answer, but any more news on the NV front? I passed a blacked out one over the weekend and it had a full roof rack on...

As nice as the camper is, it was the truck that really caught my eye ... looks like a great build. I agree with the suggestion to bring it to the Overland Expo in Flagstaff ... I'd bet that would generate an offer or two. Though if you're not selling the truck, and just trying to unload the...

I have ~115k on my Xterra ('08) and have been through at least three or four sets of bulbs ... I wouldn't see that as a major inconvenience, necessarily, to have to remove the compressor to do it; but it was the first thing that jumped out at me when I saw the location. It certainly works...

I enjoy reading and following your builds, quite a lot actually ... though I'll confess to not feeling like I ever have much to offer. Your integration on those mounts is pretty trick, well done. ... and now back to my lurking.

I'd have to take a closer look, but does it still allow you to easily change a headlight bulb?

This: ... and this: ... seconded on both counts. I'm watching this build with continued interest ... thanks to all involved for providing the entertainment.

What motor does it have? Looks like a nice van!

I can't remember if I've posted on your thread or not, but I discovered this van when reading and then following bknudtsen's build thread; and have started following this one as well ... this is one of my favorite builds on the site, keep up the great work. Love this van.

:drool: ... sounds like an awesome spec list.

Heck of an update on Banff ... it's always simply amazing pictures that seem to come from there, yours are no different.

That's been my understanding as well ... really wish they'd carry the F-Alpha platform forwards, I love the interchangeability of the models. As for the Atlas, why do you think it is that I can't decide between wanting a 2wd or a 4wd as the starting point for a build?! lol ... great minds...

Good catch ... I'd also wonder what Lester means by that. My understanding was that the t-cases all had the same basic guts and that the R51's was just a bit more complex with the addition of an "Auto" setting ... allowing it to serve in an awd mode, whereby the actual connection between front...

Just make sure you research and follow the BLM regs on dispersed camping (they have exclusions on some of the more well traveled roads) - and know the administration of the place you happen to wind up ... I've heard rumors that they're actually enforcing the camping regs and issuing citations to...

While your statement is true, on the face of it, the same could be said for any vehicle! That picture of your R51 on the rock, up above, doesn't look any worse off than any number of similar pictures I've seen of similarly equipped trucks on NewX or Club Frontier ... in spite of assertions to...

Lester, I like your style.
