Oh I'm going to be there. If it snows I might be hard to spot though! Otherwise I stick out like a sore thumb. Plan on leaving San Diego Thursday after work.

Figure I would post up a small story with chain of events that caused my alternator to go out which put my truck down for over a month. I was getting her ready for the upcoming Overlanding Expo and it just occurred to me what had happened too cause this trouble. I was thinking about someone else...

A couple more pics of the trip. One of the trails ended at a train bridge that was just a little to low to fit under, So we just went over! As many of you also enjoy firearms, You can tell by the pics with the sign, we still have those idiots out there who shoot up things that they shouldn't...

Good morning everyone. I just returned from a trip that I took out through the Southwest deserts from Ca. to Nevada. I took my 80 year old mother out for just over a week. She has wanted to do a good 4x4 camping trip in the treehouse, ( that's what we call my truck). We started in Vegas and...

So yesterday I finished my AC install. I had a friend come out and help as he is a mobile AC guy. Built all of my lines on site and got it working. It wasn't plug and play. My truck didn't have all of the connections in the dash to just plug it in. I had to improvise a little to get it to work...

I'm going to use the stock condenser mounted in the stock location. And if that doesn't work I'll go with a different condenser mounted probably in front of the radiator. If I remember correctly I've got both the air compressor brackets and the pulley from Superman. The belt tensioner, I...

So I have all of my ac parts installed on the cab except for the hoses. I just haven't had the time to work on it. So tomorrow I am having a guy I know come out and just finish it for me. He works on RedDot daily so it should be easy day for him. His mobile truck is quite amazing as to how much...

Finally was able to take some pics of my gen mount. Its just a simple cage with slides to be able to service the unit. I don't feel the need to encase the whole thing for theft or protection. It works great.

I will take pics for you tonight. Sorry I switched from driod to IPhone and I don't have all my pics back on new phone yet. I have to take new ones and then post. I will take pics tonight and post in the am.

Well I have finally been able to test the truck in some real heat camping in the truck. Now I don't have the cab ac completed yet. Still need to install the hoses and all. I had to go to Las Vegas so I also some time out at Lake Mead. It was 110 degrees where I was at with zero shade. The truck...

I haven't been posting up much lately as I have been very busy with work and my other projects. As for the last question, It weighs 22,500lbs fully loaded with all my stuff, I live in it full time. So those of you who have owned and lived in an RV, you know how much stuff you can actually get in...

Thanks Keith. I was just talking about you yesterday with Steve while he is building his camper. I have been doing small things in mine but mostly just out enjoying it. I need to finish up the cab air soon as San Diego is starting to heat up. As of now, the summer circle track season is already...

Well I have been reading all the posts but not doing much around here on my . I was building tanks and roof racks for Steve but not much else. I did have to replace a camper window since I was plinking ground squirrels and a pellet hit my window and shattered it. DOOOH! Well, I have been busy...

I guess you just speak some gibberish and they will just give up and tell you to "just leave "meow", go "meow", Just get out of here "Meow!"

I understand what you were thinking with the Euro plate idea! Didn't catch on at first!

I like the videos on the above truck. That couple reminds me of myself. I travel with my younger GF also. She keeps me young and healthy.

Do you have one?!

I was curious if you don't mind sharing the method you used to secure it to the truck. I'm on the fence on wether to build one or just get a 1079 and mod the van. I mounted the box just as the original bed was mounted to the truck. 8 bolts down each side. There are many debates on "How to...

Thanks for the compliment. I think the first time people ride in these trucks they feel they are tall and top heavy. When people come visit me to see my build they always use the grab bars. but after a few miles they start getting used to how they ride and lean around fast corners. I don't even...

Pointman, I don't use Facebook. I am getting as far from the "system" as possible. Except for the internet and this site! LOL. Would love to talk to you about any questions you have. Eric 619-952-4337
