    Maxtrax vs TRED vs Tracmats vs X-Trax vs X-Jack

    How well or durable would the Maxtrax be with a heavy rig? Would it be better to use sand ladders? Thanks, Chas

    Unimog camper

    I second that.....what models do you have? What and where you plan to travel and with how many folks? A nice 406 with a tent-top would be cool.

    What to pay for a 79 Unimog?

    Mike is dead on. I've known a few folks who saw one and then jumped. Then it was "it is slow".....wrong gears for what they expected. Drive a few types then decide what is best for you. Good Luck, Chas

    Which size Hi-Lift to buy....does size matter?

    I have an old 48" that I packed out of an abandoned mine years ago. For my needs and the lack of capacity of my truck I would still buy a 48". I pick my present truck up with each wheel (either end) or the rear hitch. As stated earlier, lifting from the chassis can tax a 48" if the suspension...

    continental mpt81 feedback?

    I've ran two sets of them on my truck and think they are a good comprimise between highway and off-road. I've made a few 3,000 mile trip while towing a trailer. I did sipe mine for better traction in the snow/ice. Chas

    Ford F554, the replacement for the H1 is here.

    I like it. If folks want to pay the money, let them. Sure, I think others could be something "like" this and possibly for less, but, for a built rig I'm impressed. I look forward to roadtest and such. Chas

    I really like the rear bumber ideas. The folding table is way practicle. Bummer on the whole ankle thing. You've been sorely missed. Chas

    Ok, so whos beast of an H1 is this?

    The most impressive thing for me, as a Mog owner is that .............he is in the fast lane! Bravo.

    I like the square Pivot Kings. I'm simple when building stuff and square is easier. I can't really see what cap system they use. The Summit Machine caps look cool and durable for keeping crap out. Chas

    Amazon rescuers find ravine crash couple in MB Unimog

    I agree Roberto. I'd leave my rig in Montana without much worry. Here in the Reno area with some worry. In a large city......what are the gun laws again? Chas

    Uses for a Mog besides expedition

    How about pulling out wreckers that get in over their heads. Once told not to go down a very muddy nasty ravine. 1 ton trucks buried with 5th wheels at Pismo beach. F450 stuck in mud with the lake rising (these are a few of the pictures on my "wall of shame). I think they can be the right...

    Help me pick my Mog

    Howdy Spider, I'd look back at some of the topics of "what's the best Unimog?" and read what folks say. Lots of possibilities. I'd say short camper modern on a SBU Doka cab. We all have opinions of what works best. Charlie has a Unicat camper on a U500 single cab. He's on the list and is a...
