    How long do you keep your overland trucks?

    My Jeep is getting close to 10 years old now and it's at the point were many things need a refresh in order to be sure the truck is reliable for upcoming trips. What do you guys like to do when trucks get old? Sell and replace with new ones? or go over everything and make the old new again...

    Is your overland rig also you daily driver?

    The vehicle I use for overlanding and off roading is pushing 30 years old and is also my daily driver. I absolutely love the thing and daily drive it because I want to and not because I have to. Maintenance is a bit expensive but I think it is worth it. What about you guys? Does anyone else...

    How are you getting external lighting wires inside your truck?

    Can't think of anything else other than drilling holes. It also depends on your truck though. if it has a sunroof you may be able to pass some ire through there. Whatever you do make sure you don't ket water leaks afterwards

    Where would you mount a 12V system in a pickup truck?

    Is there anything that isn't on back order lately? I guess it is the time to use our trucks as they are since we can't get anything as far as upgrades are concerned

    Does anyone use dehydrated food?

    I always see some in the truck when going out on trips. I don't use it as main camp food but instead as a backup for days when I am too tired to cook or if I just run out of ingredients to cook anything worthwhile

    Using a trailer to mount your rooftop tent vs mounting on truck?

    Great idea. Rooftop tents just sit on roofs without being used for the majority of time and all they do is add weight. When you have it on a trailer you only carry it around when you need it. Furthermore, you can setup basecamp and hit the tough trails in the area again without having the...

    I have never used the gas ones but I can reassure you the diesel variants worked great every time I used them. Would highly recommend them

    How long do your tires last?

    I change them every 20-25k miles just to have fresh rubber at all times as I love the tougher trails. I sell the old ones as they usually still have some life left in them

    Nissan Patrols. One of the best 4x4s we never got in the US. Does anyone know if they can be imported yet?

    Anyone made it to the Easter Jeep Safari this year?

    It must have been an interesting one with all the snow. Covid also didn't effect it this year so I guess it was back to normal?

    Where would you mount a 12V system in a pickup truck?

    Good question. The answer above is a good one; however, those smart caps cost a lot of money. I am thinking of deleting one of the two rear seats, build a small drawer system that open up towards the door and on top of it mount a wood piece (covered in same flour mat as the one in your truck)...

    Does Bilstein have suspension in stock?

    Nope, not in our wildest dreams! There is a huge back order. I really miss the time where you could order any kit you wanted and it would show up in a week

    Are there any jacks made for off road use? I am not talking about high lift jacks

    I have seen a few that have big wheels on them so they don't get stuck on rocks but can't remember what they are called. I am pretty sure that if you search around on the internet you will find some options

    Any good products for removing thick mud from the car?

    In the engine bay and undercarriage I might use some engine degreaser but for the body of the car I just use a high pressure hose and a lot of scrubbing!
