I am thinking of switching from GAIA GPS to a device based mapping system like the Garmin overlander. Are these devices worth the price?

Jeep Wrangler without a doubt

I would only get polybushes from a reputable brand. They can be stiff and very noise an sometimes won't last that long. If you can't find good ones go for OEM. The stock Toyota ones are pretty good

I have, those 35s where getting the stock brakes pretty toasty on the downhills

I will also say Australia here. That place looks like a 4x4 paradise!

In some areas it can be dangerous yes. However, if you stick the the well known routes as mentioned above you should be fine

Yep, have tried it before. I would say just stick to the cast iron pan 😂

That really is cool! Too bad we can't carry this in a vehicle 😂

Yes they are, just go for relatively small ones and you should be perfectly fine. I have used them in the past

Anyone bought a new truck recently? What are the waiting times like? I am thinking of buying a new daily driver but if waiting times are over 3 months I'll probably leave it for next year!

I would get a used one that is in good shape mate. The new market is messed up big time at the moment

It depends on the trail, if I know we will be doing some tough tracks I take spare CVs and maybe and alternator during winter when everything is muddy as they love to fail on the 80. Other than that, just normal filters etc

The above are great suggestions. Until you get a permanent solution you can also use one of those bottles that filter water so you can drink from streams and rivers. Something along the lines of a Lifestraw

aScrub it with soap and let it sit in the sun open. I wouldn't use any old remover as it will probably damage the tent

I can't remember as I try not to look 😂 The good thing is that prices are still decent in the US. Have a look at the rest of the world!
