Upside down pictures made me a bit dizzy, but looks like a nice setup.
Yeah I don’t know why it does that, had to get on my laptop at home to correct it the edit portion of where are you love these photos on this website does not allow me to rotate the pictures.

Typically if one orients their phone horizontally with the camera on the left, or crop slightly and save with the phone, the photo will display correctly.

Went beach camping (in Nebraska... Lake McConaughy). Cool sunsets, but not really our scene. I prefer many fewer people around me (and it was hot as F*@%) .

Cool fact, the lake was 'made' in the 1930's but the sand was there already, left from the ancient ocean that occupied that land. It's super soft and deep, great for feet but not for unprepared vehicles.

We rescued our friends 5 times (three vehicles) and some strangers a few more times. Sand ladders got a workout and I think I sold some too (Treds/maxtraxx/etc.. owes me commission :cool:)

The Sprinter kicked ass and had no issues. Didn't even air down.

Dropped off some wheels for powder coat, we were talking about how all overland vehicles seem to have either black or bronze wheels right now. I said throw some military OD green on there for sheets and giggles. So now my wheels match my house.

Life on the road!

Drove this summer from BC to Quebec, had plenty of time to make great use of my upper bedroom! Also ended up being one of the feature vans at a Go-Van gathering in Montreal and at some point meet with a Fuso Ambo, quite interesting and possibly my next venture? Then some nice hikes near Glacier Park, BC.

Cheers

This spring above Guanajuato MX. 4 kids, one doggo to Guatemala and back over 4 months. Self build from a former mobile command unit. Build thread here in the forum under family mobile command I believe.

Very nice truck! The double cab must be awesome although the extended wheel base is probably annoying on some smaller roads! But really nice rig!!!

Bought a 2004 E350 on the classifieds here, back in August. After we flew out to WA from NJ we spent a few weeks checking out our favorite surf spots on the west coast. Split our time between boondocking, camping and the odd hotel here and there before starting the drive west: Some pictures from the trip are below...


Nice little spot we stumbled on in the Redwoods:

My fiance spent the day surfing Sano, a longboard Mecca, on her thruster...

I'll do a follow-up post for the sake of bandwith; sorry for the giant pictures.

We spent the most time in Southern California as my fiancé used to live there and has been wanting to surf all her old spots since then. I also got a chance to hang out with a good friend I met in the military.

After getting our fill of surf, traffic and tequila in Southern California we started our drive back East. This meant a day going through the Mojave (without AC, more on that later). We didn't get to cool off until we started hitting elevation in Arizona, at which point we turned North so we could spend a few days in CO:

Tourist trap near the Grand Canyon:

Probably going to take one more post to get this done...
