Well, I went "Full-time" in it Dec 2010 until I built my "cabin" 2 years ago. For solo person it's good "IMHO" I ordered the 16ft Scamp Deluxe #5 layout. Actually the Deluxe is lighter in weight than basic fiberglass models. I've lived under spartan conditions most of my life. It's was a...
Different soil composition possibly? My experience was in S. ILL. in farm country and river bottoms along with oil field lease access, pavement and gravel roads in 1980's. I've had a vehicle recovery done by a bulldozer and drag line being stuck in clay halfway up doors. That was driving out...
Camping trip depending. My Scamp, 3 weeks ago.
The utility trailer, last weekend with my pond prowler boat on it. (behind it on it's regular trailer)
Option 3 of many times in 3rd photo, cooking and food storage, chair, small table then tent or hammock maybe screen room with awning. Last...
Congratulations, on next few mods I'd recommend. Drive the snot out of it for some miles. Note not abuse but Drive it, and find a good gravel / dirt road try out the 4H and 4L "duck mode" ect. Forward and some in reverse. :like:
Oh the old "Thornbirds" called thornturds you could hear miles away and absolutely crap in actual mud without being siping half the tread blocks off. Can't say I was in the off-roading as a teenager, shooting, hunting, fishing, work and school. Summer jobs from hay bailing, cutting grass, to...
My old Ford Explorer pickup had 33's in 1988, then my Comanche came with 215/75r15 stock, Xj's the same or 235/75r15 then I moved to 31's and later 33-35's. Oddly my Wrangler Unlimited came with a 30x9.5r15in size my upsize was 31's until I harvested the 33s from my XJ.
My Gladiator came with...
Dave with airbags and using your head driving you should be good. Most boat trailers I've towed were biased tongue heavy and track well or at least okay.
I have a WDH on my T.T. only most for sway control of center of gravity of it and my original tow vehicle was my TJ Wrangler. I used it...
Multiple in multiple locations.
Elements 50s on each side front seats. 2 canister fire extinguisher one on each rear seat area roll bar and a compartment suppression in with LiPO battery. I definitely don't want to test any out. Life lesson one is none. I've got to watch an M1 Abrams tank...
Yeah I'm in some of them categories and set in my ways. Time is in 24 hours, day / month / year or year / month / day. So at 0116 13/07/2025 I'm typing this one. I don't want to have to deal with Z time anymore. Or keeping track of multiple times zones.
When I lived in GA a buddy tried to...
How long have you had it? Might be a good time to pull off diff cover(s) and look for ARB locker(s) if a new to you used the P.O. might have them installed or had them installed. The top tube is a breather vent, it looks the same as mine.
I have a old style snatch block rattling around in mortor ammo box bolted to front of bed, several soft shackles in back of passenger seat. A large sports bag in bed with several Al donut rings, soft shackles, winch line extensions, tree savers and kinetic rope. Likely enough rigging I can lift...
That guy was trying to become a road smear in first video. Stop the threat with least amount of force, that would be under your right foot. In some situations it could be someone "fishing for a lawsuit" or just flat out crazy. Your choice on what the outcome your family and your safety.
From...
It actually happened as I was driving. The ESS battery dead shorted out while I was driving. On maintaining of the batteries, I doubt anyone can say mine were not. Considering I have a dual solar systems that were connected and kept them fully charged and monitored. Heck my 05 Wrangler is kept...
Yeah the FedEx and UPS deliveries don't normally even try my driveway except in reverse at the bottom, and would notice a heck of lot faster. :giggle:
That does remind me of 2 incidents in my past last one I was dispatched to MVA and building. Teenager decided that the family minivan was ugly...
