  1. Carrying gas cans

    It's water that can eventually cause rust. No biggie if you use the can regularly. If the gas is for something like a lawn mower or chainsaw and you let it sit for months, use a additive. If it's going to sit a long time and you don't want a additive just dump it in the Gladiator and keep the...
  2. Carrying gas cans

    My setup is rotopax for gas in the bed, scepter for water in the cab (rear seat delete). I have a old cj5 with the 11 gallon under seat tank and for nostalgia I carry wavian on that one, I don't care about weight as much on that rig. I like them all but the rotopax require attention, burping...
  3. Convincing argument for full width bumper. Change my mind

    Some states stubby is illegal, more so for pedestrian then debris. A buddy of mine keeps no-dose in his first aid kit, I thought that was a good idea. My friend said it's not what you think. He informed me it's because he is addicted to caffeine and if he doesn't get his daily coffee he gets...
  4. Payload and camping gear

    My scenario is different than yours. Rear seat delete so 2 people only. All I can say is that it's a never ending battle keeping the weight down. Sacrifices have to be made, I've become kinda weight weenie and minimalist. I don't have a lot for convenience and creature comfort, my 2 Kermit...
  5. Bed kitchen - how to secure?

    I put stainless steel eye bolts in the trail rail attachment holes for more tie down locations.
  6. Come-Alongs?

    OP, the More Power Puller that you mentioned is a nice unit. I have one and like you said, keep the weight down. I have been out 6-8 weeks at a time and I just can't carry everything. Get a X-lock recovery tool and a 100ft of synthetic, several soft shackles and pulleys, and a tree saver. That's...
  7. What has the off road community become?

    Let your freek flag fly baby. Verity is the spice of life. They are made to get attention and we just gave it to them, it worked. They are thinking outside the cookie cutter, got to give them that.

    Stupid ain't cheap. If you ain't got the money you better be tough. Author Unknown. Buffalo Ridge Elementary School Playground Sheridan WY, 1964.

  11. But what about gas heaters

    Little Buddy. A few fittings to adapt it. This isn't a 20# tank but you get the idea.
  12. But what about gas heaters

    That gas heater in the link is quite a bit more $ than those popular Chinese diesel heaters, I have a Chinese one myself. If I was going to drop that kind of serious coin I'd get a Propex propane heater. I'm already carrying propane and Propex has been around for quite some time with a good...
  13. Setting up accessories? Fridge, exterior rack lights, air?

    I don't have a bed outlet, I have the 110 AC in the cab. I thought about running 12 DC to the bed, several here have done it, pretty simple installation it looks like. I don't think (for me) running AC to the bed would have any advantage, the only thing I use my AC for is charging batteries, so...
  14. Decked System - Pros and Cons

    I looked at them. Overlanding and camping weeks at a time it looked convenient for storage but it just weighed too much. With a limited payload I couldn't justify the extra weight for just a little better organization. They definitely have a place, just not the way I'm setup.
  15. Ebay Steel bumber for 2022 Gladiator. What's the catch?

    I'm definitely a minority here. I didn't like it. They have got great reviews on this forum. The look was funky, I don't know exactly what it was but it just wasn't right. They really stick out and they have to for a winch, it kinda drooped down in the front, it just wasn't what I was looking...
  16. Setting up accessories? Fridge, exterior rack lights, air?

    I use a Bluetti Eb55 and 200 watts of portable solar panels. This is not sophisticated by any means, it's pretty simple, I don't have a need for big power. Driving plugged into the factory inverter takes 3-4 hours to full charge, the 200 watts solar takes at least that and longer depending on...
