I have to agree with others who have Kodiak Canvas. The flexbow is a neat design I have the 10x10 and I can set it up alone in about 15min. Good quality and quite heavy. Sportsman's Warehouse has some in stock I believe? I just recommended them to a buddy of mine.
I owned a jellybean F-150 with the 5.4 and it never gave me trouble. Currently have a '12 XLT Supercrew with the 5.0. The new(er) truck has such a great interior layout with the flat floor in the back. I love it. As far as the motor the 5.0 is very solid as far as I can tell, I'm at 140k with...
Cool thank you for that. I got caught out on the water in Florida a few times and it put lightning in the front of my mind. In the boat it was easier to stay away from than when we'd kayak.
Thanks for the graphic! Man there are some high stretches! I live at about 4400ft and I generally do well at high elevations. It's nice to get out of the heat in the summer, one month walking in the mountains sounds like a dream. I have a buddy who's always bugging me to go ride MTB with him we...
I have always wanted to walk for a long period. Appalachian Trail being the first long hike I was curious about. I read Bill Bryson's book years ago and got the bug. I live in the west and love the west so CDT is my ultimate. I'd also love to do PCT. I guess seeing it on paper I really want to...
I bought a piece of 2" foam from a local upholstery shop and cut it to fit the bottom of our ground tent. I put a couple camping pads under it for a moisture barrier and we're good to go. When we move sites the wife and I just roll the whole thing up sheets, blankets and all and unroll it at the...
What a great report! When I lived in Alaska the farthest north I went was Fairbanks but I have always wanted to make it up to the Arctic Ocean. Glad you both made it back safely to El Chuco.
I have learned to love my old Ranger. It was really rough compared to my '10 Tacoma and I was suspicious at first to buy a 25 year old truck. I knew the only owner though (my barber) so I pulled the trigger. It has 189,000 miles and still runs like a top. No rattles inside. Very solid pickup and...
I have a patient whose husband is a Tesla mechanic and he covers unreal ground getting to people's homes for service. If it's more than he can do at their house he hauls it for them to one of the Tesla shops and then brings it back when it's done. (He's got a Super Duty service body work truck)...
