I’m in the market for a small electric chainsaw to carry with me on the trail. I did a search on the forums but only found references to their use and practicality. Can anyone recommend a brand they’ve found particularly good? I use and carry Ridgid tools and checked out their 12 inch electric...

Greetings I have a 2015 Ram 3500 (gasser) with a flatbed upon which I carry a Bundutec Odyssey camper. A number of people I know have replaced the unit bearing assemblies in the front and replaced them with one of the several brands of hub conversions. They report a slight mpg advantage...

I have a 2015 Ram 3500 with 105,000 miles upon which I carry a 2000 pound camper. I updated the rotors and pads about 40k ago. I am hoping to keep this rig for years to come and am working through replacing components that could fail given the truck's age and mileage. One such component are...

I have done some research here but I thought I would reach out and see what people advise. I have a 2015 Ram 3500 gasser, stock height with an Aluminum Flatbed and Bundutec Odyssey camper. The rig has 82,000 miles on her and about 60,000 miles ago, I installed Bilstein 4600 shocks. I've also...

Sorry for the terrible picture but does anyone know where to obtain the small step attached to the flatbed? The one that looks like a stirrup. I cannot seem to find it anywhere. Cheers

I just posted a thread over on Wander the West describing my purchase and build of a Bundutec camper. I don’t have the time to post them to multiple forums so I hope this is ok. We are doing a short shake down cruise the next few days and I’ll post impressions and more pics when we get back...

I've sold the truck and Eagle camper and have these brackets and the support pads. Asking $300. They are located in St. Paul, MN -- zip code 55105. I'd prefer pickup but will ship. They weigh about 30 pounds and shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer.

Harbor Freight has introduced their own line of "Pelican" like cases in three different sizes. I picked up a large and medium yesterday and with coupons, they are pretty darn cheap. Clearly, not the build quality of a Pelican but they really are pretty well constructed...

Greetings I just returned from a trip to the UAE to visit family and we spent some time traveling through Oman, almost to the Yemen border. That drive takes about 14 hours on mostly good roads and skirts the edge of the legendary Empty Quarter. And it is indeed empty -- nothing but flat...

The missus and I are wrapping up a 3 week overland trip thru Zambia and Namibia. We are driving a 2011 Defender 110 with British registration, and the border crossing with a Carnet was reasonably painless -- only took 3 hours. There are so many "Overland" type vehicles here that they become...

Greetings I have learned a lot from reading the posts here so I wanted to give back by sharing my experience dealing with insurance companies after a vehicle is declared total loss. As I posted earlier, my 2011 Tacoma was rear ended a few weeks back and declared a total loss about a week...

My almost new Taco was totaled this morning in Minneapolis. I was sitting at a light and was rear ended by a Jeep Grand Cherokee traveling at what the officer estimated was 50 mph. Apparently, the driver and his crew had just held up a grocery store. Driver initially escaped on foot but was...

Greetings I have a 2011 Tacoma Access Cab with a National Luna fridge and battery box located on a platform where the jump seats were in the cab. I'd like to move the battery box into the bed under a platform I have built there. The wiring is pretty straight forward but after spending some...

I'm not sure if this has been previously discussed but here it is if anyone is interested. http://bringatrailer.com/2011/07/29/battle-worn-1971-land-rover/ Interesting history and it would make an "interesting" project. Cheers Kevin

If you live in snow country, this might be just the ticket. Cheers

Not sure if this has been posted but it's some good footage of Land Rover's long history. YouTube - 60 years of Land Rover history - an official film montage Cheers Kevin
