I'm 5' 8" so I was able to lay straight out and have an inch or 2 left over. If I were taller I would have slept corner to corner. The thing is, in the Ford there's more width up near the windows and yet even more going window to window. The set up with the storage box, cooler and a memory foam...

Just wanted to say I found my truck to be all I needed and had a great time going through a bunch of NPs and other areas. Plus a big thanks to Bob and his videos that gave me a basic blueprint that performed perfectly as I was prepared for just about everything. In case you might be curious of...

The RV dealer who refused to sell you a trailer is one of very few that is honest. In the majority of dealerships it is say anything to get the sale. Braking is the real problem. The brakes were designed to stop that particular car based on its weight. Adding a 700 pound trailer, all the...

The camper had a history. He was charged for murdering 2 people and wounding 5 others years ago. He actually did it but his lawyer got him off for extenuating circumstances. Basically, he was denied service at a bar and thrown out. He came back armed to the teeth including hand grenades and...

Dr. Ruth Westheimer had some pretty good ideas on relieving stress... Just saying! 8-)

There's so much involved with conversions like that. By the time everything is done you'd be better off if you found one already equipped with it. They are rare but can be found. Plus factory installed is trustworthy vs some guy doing an aftermarket conversion. I have a 4X4 but have only used it...

In most instances I've had encounters with authorities it's been civil. I always say yes sir, no sir, etc and refer to them as officer. HOWEVER, as polite and cooperative as I am, I've run across some real tools. I wonder if Larry ran across a tool and now black balled so others will hassle...

Possibly a reason. But I would think they wouldn't let anyone near it at all.

The guy running it is Kevin Venture. I think he's on Facebook. He's got a YouTube account called clear adventure. Also he was interviewed by Ausia of Pandamonium on YouTube regarding the meetup so you can check that out too. It's called Travellers Campfest. Dates are July 10th yo the 17th. The...

Physical therapist OR physical terrorist?

The guy they shot and killed has quite a history. https://www.upi.com/Archives/1993/04/18/Man-kills-2-wounds-5-in-bar-shooting-spree/6481735105600/ He was acquitted of both murders and 5 woundings in that incident. That being said, just because there was a crazy nut out there doesn't mean...

Good idea on the Spot tracking. I use a Spot 3 to let family know where I am and that I'm ok. Doesn't matter if the rangers don't want to see it because it still changes things in your favor and they know it. At that point they're going to back off, maybe throw a empty threat or 2 at you and...

Sounds like the questioning I got when I unknowingly drove into a CIA facility parking lot. Surrounded by 6 guards all with their hands on the guns. All in black tactical gear mirrored glasses and utility belts Batman would be jealous about. Finally told me to move on and not come back or they'd...

Yesterday I had 2 forestry trucks go by my site seemingly in a hurry. About 20 minutes later they came back. They slowed as they passed then stopped for a minute then moved on. This was in the chalk cliffs area. I figured maybe they saw or heard of a campfire was going. Anyhow, this brings up...

The first thing he did wrong was to be detected by anyone. Probably should have picked a better locale where there's typically a lot of vans, like a Home Depot.

A case study on how insulated people become over a period of time. Little steps in the wrong direction going unnoticed until the hammer drops on them. I always ask myself am I still the gray man no one notices or have I changed or added anything that brings me to anyone's attention even in...

Welcome! Since you are in CO maybe you might be interested in a meetup in CO that's happening from July 10 to 17th. It's at Clear Creek. There's likely to be people there who you can get to know and maybe get a few tips from. BTW, X2 on highdesertstranger's 4X4 conversion answer.

That Tim guy in the video has a lot right IMO. Big business does have control over our gov't. It's the root cause for everything he talks about.

X2  I have mine set up with a plastic bag and a layer of coconut fiber much like the composting toilet. Every time I use it I cover up the evidence with another layer of fiber. The gamma lid keeps what little odor there is left completely hidden. I can go weeks without having to dispose of the bag.

Nice. I particularly liked the design of the bathroom.
