Does anyone have a recommendation on traction mats to get a van un-stuck on soft ground? I see roll-up heavy rubber and cable mats and rigid straight sections, usually plastic. Is one better than another? Thanks

I did a search but didn't find anything. Is anybody using diaper pails for, you know, poop bags? This one on Amazon looks like it would do a good job with 7 layer plastic bags. The unit is a bit large but using just the refill bags might be a good...

Is anyone using a wireless Bluetooth backup camera that connects with your tablet? If so which one do you use and do you like it?

Wheel well size? I'm looking at the size of the wheel well bump out in my single rear wheel per side van. From looking at the suspension the maximum travel that is even possible is about 6 inches, yet the wells provide for 15" of travel. Also the length is 41" while the wheels themselves are...

Let the transformation begin! It's a 2004 Freightliner MT45, a light-duty ex-postal van with an eleven-foot box. Soon to transform into my tiny home on wheels.

I'm looking at mini desktop computers like the one linked below. Does anyone have any experience with this type of computer or have a better suggestion for computers? (I don't want a laptop or tablet) Thanks...

I'm looking at a 2001 international step van with a 7.3 liter v8 turbo diesel international, t444e and automatic transmission. 87,000 miles. Is this a good Engine? I have no experience with it?

If I understand this product correctly it is a tiny desktop computer that can receive the internet through a wifi hotspot. I can be tucked away anywhere and I can use the wireless keyboard, mouse and big screen tv that I already have. Do I have this right? Seems like a great option for RVers.  ...

Will the green New deal end the boondockers way of life?

I have been looking at these tools trucks, they have some very nice features, but I'm not sure they are worth the extra money. They are aluminum body, already insulated, at least 1 AC unit, often 2, central heating, generator with big battery bank, and a lift gate in the back. (regular doors in...

What are your thought on this second entrance / Exit. I think it could help a lot of traffic in that single track lane in. It's approximately 1 mile past the RTR entrance on Mitchell Mine road. 

For those of us that may want to camp farther away from the crowd or just interested here is the boundary for the wash. It's the first result in this google search. It's a PDF file and Scaddan wash is in the upper right...

Does anyone know where you pick up a dispersed BLM camping permit in Quartzite? Is it at the LaPosa LTVA welcome center?

Has anyone used one of these little thingies? I don't know why it wouldn't work. It can't make anymore heat than your stove puts out, but might radiate it better. $13 on amazon  

I see the new US built Sprinters will have a gas engine model and available 4x4. Just what I was hoping for.

Anyone else traveling west on I-40 to the RTR 2019? I'll be traveling west from Kentucky, I pick up 40 in Nashville. Anyone interested in being part a RTR or bust caravan?

Will the RTR be a circus on the first day?  Would it make sense to arrive on the 3-4th day to avoid the traffic?

Has anyone ever camped at the Boca Chica beach just 25 miles east of Brownsville Texas. It looks like free beach camping. From the satellite photos it appears that driving on the beach is allowed.

I'm playing with van build out plans and got a bit of a crazy idea. I would love to place the bed going across the back of the van instead of along one side. Problem is I'm 6'-2" and won't fit. Then I thought of a foot well slide out, or hinge out to give me the width needed. Just picture a tiny...

Can someone recommend the right kind of ground anchor for different types of ground? Sand, rock, or just dirt. I'm making a winch to attach to the front of my car and there are not always trees. Thanks.
