    Military medical boxes

    I have three of the larger size and they fit my Forester roof basket perfectly. I bought them NOS and they were pristine ! I painted them Krylon white to reflect heat and strap them down so they don't go anywhere. They are somewhat of a pain to open and close so like you, I don't worry about the...

    Dana Designs backpack help

    I hear you on buying bombproof gear. Dana was an awesome brand when I was backpacking a lot. I bought a couple Gregory packs 15+ years ago and have yet to tear them up. It's tough justifying buying new gear when you still have the old stuff in great shape.

    Overland Volkswagen Type 181 (aka Thing, Trekker, Safari, Kubel)

    I had a '73 thing that I ended up selling to someone who had the time to restore it. I loved driving it and it was a ball to take off road but I didn't have the time to fix all the rust. I'm still looking for an older air-cooled beetle to build into a baja bug. ah, projects, projects, projects.

    VW truck?

    We'll never see it here in North America. VW has no plans to import it here. VW has a bunch of cool trucks but it'll never happen.
