Awesome, thanks! I poked around the McNett site, but wasn't sure what I was looking for. I'll try again.


ETA - found it

30" x 50" khaki for $24.95 - https://www.mcnett.com/outgo/ultra-compact-microfiber-towel#68137
30" x 50" khaki for $18.91 - http://www.amazon.com/Outgo-Ultra-C...03532&sr=8-2&keywords=mcnett+microfiber+towel

The XL khaki 35" x 62" is $29.95 on McNett, $23.38 on Amazon ($17.98 if you buy moss green - I bought 2). Were you looking at a different one on Amazon?

What a great event full of wonderful people. We are the couple that owns the obnoxious Orange van that was part of the Ujoint exhibit. We're building it out for a Pan-American trip starting this coming Spring. Sorry we didn't post before the event!

Glad you posted and your signature includes your website. My family and I stopped by your van on Saturday and we chatted briefly. I regretted not asking if you had a site so we could follow your adventures.

Does anyone know who manufactures this awning? (thanks JackW for the pic)

 

[60Dan]

The logo on that awning is Nemo Equipment

http://www.nemoequipment.com

Didn't see it on their website, but might be worth sending them an email

EDIT: Found it, weird its on the Adventure Trailers website, and not Nemo's

Thanks 60Dan!!

Great shots!
Had a great time looking at all the eye candy, and wishing my bank account was bigger!
Was surprised that there weren't more nick nacks for people to buy like shirts, mugs etc ...
Shame that they messed up the shirt design by putting "Overland Expo West" instead of "Overland Expo East" -- I'm sure they could have sold a ton!

Overall great event, looking forward to next year

Regarding shirts, they are acutely aware. All the Expo East t-shirts were accidentally left back in AZ, as the wrong boxes were grabbed in error. I'm SURE that won't happen again next year! They can be ordered online though

Can anyone provide a link to the overland expo "store"? I have looked around on the site and the closest I have come is the news article from March showing the West shirts. Can't find the link to purchase.

We plan to have a storefront up on the Overland Expo site in a few weeks. Roseann says anyone who teases her about bringing the wrong box will pay triple.

Anyone know whose this rig is or if there is a build thread somewhere

I'm guessing it used to belong to overland vehicle rentals but judging by the sign on the door no longer is.

I really enjoyed the weekend - lots of very interesting classes and eye candy. I've just posted my photos from the weekend here:
