    Ticking noise from 2017 Wrangler motor

    Perfect start to the week. This morning while accelerating onto freeway, there was a decent pop noise and now my motor is making this semi faint ticking noise. There was small puff of smoke that came out of truck when this happened. Any idea of what this might be? Or where I can trouble...

    First oil leak

    Not exactly how I would like to start the new year! I found two nickel size oil drops under my truck. I haven't found where this was coming from. So going to raise the truck this weekend and see where this is coming from and how bad this may be.

    Shelf life for tire repair kit?

    I have a tire repair kit in my truck that I have not used and it has to be a good 7 years old. Should this be replaced every so XX years? If so, how often should I replace? Thank you

    Keeping gear secure in Jeep with doors off?!

    Well I was testing out some tube doors for my Jeep today, which I think are fun, but the drivers door needs adjusting as it doesn't close and stay latched easily. Anyway, I went into a hunting store and came out to find my glove box open and stuff tossed on the floor board. Lucky for me...

    Buddy Heater with no moisture??

    Might be a dumb question, but I'll ask regardless. Is there a way to use a Buddy Heater and not have all the moisture created inside the tent? I would like to have dry heat. Are there any hacks or conversions that can be done to make this work?

    We are going to do some family winter camping next month. I don't need to tell you, it's a cold time of year, so any ideas how I could heat this the Gazelle T-8 tent? I just ordered this from Amazon, if you are interested, it's 44% off right now (cost $579 today). So I don't have it yet, but...

    Ground Grabba vs making your own??

    I keep getting Ground Grabba emails including ones this week on some sale that is ending. These things seem kind of pricey for being just a bolt you screw into the ground. Unless I'm missing something, can this be duplicated with large bolts picked up from Home Depot?

    Redarc Manager 30 wiring

    I just bought a used Redarc Manager 30 from someone up in Canada. Few questions that just hit me: 1. from a wiring standpoint, are things the same as here in the states? 2. I was told there is no directions, any good directions I can download on setting up? 3. If I want to use this with...

    Are you calling it overlanding OR camping?

    I'm part of a few communities, and I see so much confusion between what to call camping. Well some call it camping and others call it overlanding. Which is correct? Is "Overlanding" the new verb for 'Camping'? What do you call it?

    Are you supposed to pack out toilet paper?

    When you go #2, are you supposed to pack out your toilet paper used? Or can you bury? I've always buried and placed rock on top of 'business'. I was just reading an article that stated you are supposed to pack out used toilet paper?

    Champion Power Equipment 2500 watt generator won't start

    This is a dual fuel generator, and I can't get this thing to start while using propane. I've followed the instructions, I have a full tank of propane and it just won't start. Very annoying. Anyone else have any issues with starting while using propane and if so, how did you get it to start...

    Sharpening your knifes in the field?

    How are you sharpening your knives while in the field. I had to be honest, for the last 17 years or so, all my knifes in my house and ones I take with me on camping trips have been sharpened by an old timer who lived around the corner from my house. He used to have a storefront back in the day...

    Anyone considering an electric truck for overlanding adventures?

    I must say, the gears are starting to turn. BUT I have big concerns about charging an EV truck when off grid. Solar would take forever with current technology. Would a 2000w generator even put a dent into charging one of these batteries in a EV?

    Overlandish Base Camp vs Shiftpod III vs Russian Bear UP5

    I've been waiting over 8 months for ShiftPod III to be in stock. Tired of waiting. I saw this channels review on Russian Bear Up5 tent. Was getting ready to pull trigger on that, and just stumbled on Overlandish Base Camp. Have you heard of this company or tent? I want something that is all...
