    Current River Fall Float

    Natasha and I loaded up the camper, boat, and dogs for a two day float on the Current River. We set up the camper on a gravel bar Thursday night, kicked on the heater, and went to bed. Friday morning we slept in until almost 7:00! We skipped breakfast and headed for the put in up river at...

    Can anyone with a stock suspension crew cab take a measurement from the middle of the wheel/hub to the bottom of the fender in the wheel arch, fron and rear? Preferably with an empty bed if possible. Thanks!

    Air bags for load management

    My truck seems to "bob" or "buck" on the highway when we have our pop up camper hitched along with the bed full of gear. It's not a violent motion and it's not to the point where it's dangerous, just uncomfortable. The suspension sags about two inches when we're loaded, mainly from the load in...

    New pump: 870 Express vs. Wingmaster

    I'm in the market for a new pump 12 gauge for hunting season and have pretty much decided on an 870 after shooting my uncles Express and shouldering a few at the gun shop. The Wingmaster felt nice and seemed to cycle better off the rack, but there is a $400 up charge on the Wingmaster vs. the...

    12 volt fans

    Now that we've jumped into summer time temps and just two weeks before our week long jaunt through the humid jungles of Southern Missouri, we've started to consider a fan for the camper. I'm looking at two different fans, one made by O2-Cool and one made by Fan-Tastic. We just plan on using it...

    Jack's Fork River - Memorial Day weekend

    We took advantage of the long weekend and headed down to the Ozark National Scenic Riverways for some canoing and swimming. Weather outlook was good when we left the city on Friday night, but something must of changed because it actually rained quite a bit. We were able to work around it and...

    Microsoft released SP 3 for XP to the general public through their download site and Windows Update today. I installed it on my three year old laptop, it took 45 minutes and that does not count the time spent downloading the 300+ MB file. Overview Download (English version) Enjoy!

    Hawn State Park

    Natasha and I went down to Hawn State Park this past weekend to do a little camping and some hiking. Like most Missouri state parks, Hawn is very domesticated and geared towards those with larger camper trailers. This also was the first weekend that reservations could be made and it was the...

    Fleetwood Neon

    We've been looking for a more comfortable way to camp for a while now. We wanted to be off the ground, we wanted a heater so we could expand our camping season, and wanted a comfortable place for our dogs. We considered an FWC, but decided it would not work easily with my truck. We thought...

    Marine Battery Chargers

    How would a marine battery charger hold up to a situation where there was a steady drain on a battery while the charger is plugged into 110? For example, say the usage on the battery was around 5 amps and the charger was rated for 10 or more amps, would this harm either the battery or the charger?

    AGRI-Cover Access Roll-Up Cover & Rack

    I'm looking for a rack for my Frontier to carry a canoe. Unfortunately, none of the main rack manufacturers make a compatible rack for my truck. I stumbled across this today and it looks kind of interesting, but the pictures are not great...

    FWC overhang

    What are everyones thoughts on using an FWC Eagle in a 5' truck bed? The tail gate would have to be in the down position of course. I went to the FWC dealer in Wisconsin today to look around at some different sizes. The owner of the dealership that was showing me around seemed to think the...

    Training a dog

    I'll be trying my hand at dog training beyond the basic "here, sit, lay down" for the first time come April. We're getting a female lab with a respectable pedigree and we aim to train her as a family companion and waterfowl retriever. Anyone have any books or training materials they could...
