If it helps, I've used the 'Conntec' brand junction box on Amazon under a Military trailer conversion with good success. It has held up very well on a conversion from NATO 12pin through all sorts of conditions and terrain. I did my own soldering/marine shrink and dielectric grease to help...

I agree with CCross and Kodiakisland, the Ouchitas are about 4hrs and Ozarks about 6. Pretty close for Texas living. We are up there many times a year to camp. Great hiking, waterfall chasing, wildlife, etc. If you are a backpacker the Ouachita Trail is pretty nice. If you are a...

I was moved to Dallas in 2000, grew up in several parts of the world and travel constantly (precovid) for work and play. Dallas is a great place to live/base from my perspective. Food scene is strong. Beer/drinks scene is strong. You'll get used to the things others have mentioned so I won't...

Not to hijack but I've gone through both of your considerations in the last 10 years. I had a 500gal tank buried at our small ranch in Fannin county. Leased is $26ish per month and the providers prefer that arrangement from my POV. I live in Lower Greenville and had my gas main replaced from...

Order submitted>confirmed. Badlands. 2Dr. Lux. 2.3. MT. CO.

As others from TX mentioned we are a pretty tightly controlled group. We're #133 of an expected 113 - but as they said quite a few have opted for a '22. I'm optimistic. I was an early am 7/14.

I really like my eezi-awn from Equipt1: https://www.equipt1.com/collections/roof-racks Made in South Africa (I generally rely on SA, Australia or US made things for gear like this). We run a full size baroud Grand raid XXL RTT up there...

We have an identical order to what you show - and I could not agree more. Can't wait!

Really appreciate this. We messaged with Mike Levine and he thought it 'would not be a problem' but your description gives a lot more confidence. There is precious little information on something that could be so critical to a short driver. Imagine taking delivery and realizing you are unable...

Thanks @SD_Bronco Any impression on the seat adjustment relative to clutch travel? My wife is 5'2 and wants the Bronco for it's MT. Information is scant for shorter drivers (although lots of good info on big and tall). Thanks again for the great writeup!

I loved my Traveler in college. Top off all summer! Great to have the full rear space. We use a Land Cruiser these days and with gear, kennels, drawers, fridge, etc. I don't see how the Bronco will replace it for more than short trips <5 days based on firewood needs alone? I like the...

My wife is 5'2 and wants a Bronco because of the MT. How is seat adjustment for shorties relative to clutch travel? THANK YOU! EDIT: Her inseam is 26" if that's a better standard :)

More clearance irrespective of wheel circumference. You can imagine a drive axle going out to the hub. As mentioned elsewhere, in a normal scenario you see the left unimog 404 (which does not exist they all have portals haha) where the axle drives the hub directly at the centreline of the...

Thanks for that. Super cool that Ford is backing a factory run stock class truck like this. I've built and run a stock class car and think it provides for some pretty exciting racing. We follow the Dakar and WRC and the Baja some years - I look forward to following this now. Those portals and...

JamesC - Dallas. Not sure how I missed this all these months.

Love the Boot and love it's story - original and new. Best of luck to everyone!

I agree with a previous post. Start camping in prepared sites now with whatever you have. To start, look for sites with restrooms and maybe showers available. Do a weekend or a long weekend. Plan an easy menu to begin so that you can focus on the experience and later you can measure in...

Go prepared. Big Bend Ranch State Park has beautiful sites and you can count on other visitors passing. BBNP inside the gates is of course very popular. There are some roads in that part of the world though with a very long hike out if things go sideways. As mentioned above, when off...

Posted my reservation from July 14th.

I also had Park Cities aligned to my reservation. Same experience you mentioned and my POC was Justin Odle. Email, call and texts were appropriate, prompt and courteous. Looks good so far.
