    Aren't solar panels temp sensitive? If so, what is going with flexible panels that are mounted directly to the campers roof?

    Traditional overlanders in Africa and Australia have under 33" tires, why in US most are 35"+?

    I was driving yesterday and saw comment on FB with similiar title. I was just checking a message from a friend and didn't have the time to read this post. But something I was curious about, so I'm going to post here. Why is this so? If you look at all these overlanders from Africa and...

    Canvas wall tents and high winds?

    I don't suppose any of you know how well do canvas tents hold up to heavy winds compared to other style tents? We are going to be out in Glamis for a few weeks and someone told me that I should look into a canvas tent because they often have heavy frames and the canvas can take a beating...

    Overland trailer really worth the expense?

    Trailer vs topper camper? I know a big pro of having a trailer is that you don't need to lug that around with you all the time. But you do need to store it, more MPGs to tow it, maintenance and navigating trails could be more challenging. So is it worth the expense vs just putting a camping...

    Food spoiled because fridge connector!

    What a crappy camping trip this weekend was! First managed to get a flat and one of the lug nuts just didn't want to come off, not till a ton of convincing. Then when we finally get to camp, I could use a nice cold beer, so I go for one in the fridge and only find warm beers. Turns out, the...

    What's the coldest you have camped out in?

    We went camping this past weekend up north, 2F out. We had to use 2 buddy heaters to keep the tent warm. I think we may head out again in a couple weeks. But it might be below 0F. That will be COLD! What is the coldest you have camped in?

    How long do you think offroad and gas engines have?

    I'm sure you have noticed more and more manufactures jumping to electric with states setting bills into place to ban the sale of gasoline powered cars by 2035. When you think we'll see a overtake from gas to electric for overlanding and offroad?

    Harbor Freight Apache Protective Case vs Pelican?

    I was going pick up a couple Pelican cases to strap to the roof of my rig, but on Facebook just saw an add for Harbor Freight Apache Protective Cases. These look pretty nice! I know Harbor Freight a little, but not enough to run out and buy these vs Pelican. Pelican cases are pricey, these...

    Alp Generators larger than 1000w?

    I love this generator, but man, I wish this sucker had more power. This is perfect for most of what I need it for. However I would like to charge larger items at camp, and it's just not enough. 2000-2300w would be incredible. Especially if it's close to the same form factor. Unless I'm...
