  1. Cape Lookout! A sweet retreat.

    How was it pulling the camper on the sand?
  2. RIDGID PRO GEAR SYSTEM Gen 2.0 (storage) currently on sale at Home Depot

    This is exactly what I did for my camping set up. The first two boxes carry all my cutlery and cooking supplies, the smallest carries batteries, head lamps, first aid etc.
  3. Fuel Gauge Accuracy

    In my experience engine braking causes the MTE to plummet, but its not accurate. I always had more fuel.
  4. Max Tow owners… what are you towing?

    21ft bunkhouse, 4000lbs loaded. I wanted to keep it light as Im running 285/75s.
  5. Do you carry medical when wheeling?

    You get it. After several deployments as an Infantryman and several years as a ER RN, I can say a TQ is overkill is most instances. I cannot speak for how many times my ER has taken down a TQ to find it was not needed. The supplies one carries should fit two categories, those you will most...
  6. Do you carry medical when wheeling?

    I add this because I've had two pneumothorax, one that progressed to a tension. I figure what would I want in the event of a rollover and worried about blunt trauma to the chest. Regardless of the law, if someone shows tension pathology, they are getting a needle.
  7. Do you carry medical when wheeling?

    I dont know if I would be giving Hextend, NS is another issue that can be addressed with other interventions. Carrying basic first aid supplies, oral rehydration salts, SAM splints, and cooling supplies will cover most emergencies. I carry the above mentioned kit but I add a needle...
  8. TJ owner thinking about moving on to a JT - input wanted.

    I drove my 05 TJ for 15 years, it had many trips all over the southeast and southwest. I had a lot of good memories in that jeep, but once I had my son, it started to become a pain. Then my grandpa gave me his '83 El Camino, the wife said I could either keep my grandpa's El Camino or the TJ, I...
  9. New camper specs

    I know why I lost power and MPG, I was curious what you were getting. Im thinking about regearing to 4.56s when I can.
  10. New camper specs

    What MPG do you get with the TT? I have a TT that is nearly identical. I get 10mpg now, after throwing on 34s.
  11. New camper specs

    I hear you. But, there is still air resistance across the entire frontal area of the trailer, despite the jeep breaking some of the resistance. I've found different information about how to calculate frontal area, so I'm curious as to what is the correct answer. Anecdotally, I towed an 83 El...
  12. New camper specs

    Ive been told its just the frontal areas of the trailer, basically leaving the Gladiator to only tow very small trailers. This is the first time Ive heard of deducting the front of the jeep.
  13. New camper specs

    Isn't the max frontal area 55 SQFT for the Max Tow?
  14. Longest road trip you've taken in your Gladiator?

    Chapel Hill, NC to Moab, I found the ride just fine. Compared to my 05 TJ, the JT rides like a caddy; the hardtop with homemade headliners helps. On my way, I was able to hit trails in WV, CO, and UT. I have the bestop supertop, at 5' 10'' I was able to sleep sideways in the bed on a sleeping...
  15. Moab this weekend

    Do you have a hitch skid? If not, get one, it will save your bumper.
  16. Moab this weekend

    Beyond the trails already recommended, I would recommend Chicken Corners. Its not complicated, I ran the entire trail in 2WD except a sandy patch. However, the views are amazing.
