I've been brainstorming since I'm back at my home base and looking in the back of the bronco which as you may know is kind of short for me to sleep in but I may have come up with a solution. I talked to a construction buddy of mine and we're going to attempt a build out. And not to worry I'll...

While driving on I-84 in Oregon around The Dalles area the right lane westbound has some really bad potholes and are next to impossible to see at night. I hit them and they almost threw me off the road and now my entire front end suspension is rattling bad and bad shaking in steering wheel so if...

Due to unforeseen circumstances happening back at our home base we drove 1,268 miles from Cheyenne Wyoming back to Bremerton in 20 hours and 43 minutes. That was a long day. Have you ever driven so long that when you stop to get gas it feels like you're still moving when you get out of the vehicle?

My wife and I just got through spending two weeks the Black hills around Custer South Dakota. We had an opportunity to speak to a number of native Americans in the Lakota tribe and we're shocked at what we learned. Apparently the US government had a treaty agreement with the Indians that made...

So we've been on the road since August 13th and have not looked at any news of any kind. Today we decided to look up the news and saw that there was a hurricane in Louisiana. If you've ever seen a picture of our truck it has decals that say zombie outbreak response team which is the name of a...

So as some of you know we are currently camping in the Black hills of South Dakota. We met this man on our first day his name is Bud. He stopped by a couple hours ago and saw that we were still here and asked if there was anything we needed and I told him that we were good we have enough to get...

My thermostat in my truck has been "broken" for a couple years now. It is frozen in the half open position and I still get really good heat from heater but my truck never even comes close to running hot, during hot weather my temperature gauge says it's in the low normal range. Should I bother...

I've been using weather bug, AccuWeather and 1weather apps and none have been anywhere near reliable or accurate. I know that no weather app is 100% accurate but these ones above haven't even been 50% accurate. So what weather apps are you guys using and are any of them more than 50% accurate?

We are currently in the Black hills of South Dakota where the temperatures are getting into the low 40s and upper 30s into night time and windy during the day if you're planning on coming here bring your warm gear

:rolleyes: if your dog chews everything in sight I would suggest getting a muzzle. My dog Dora has chewed part of my truck part of my seats and somehow set off a fire extinguisher while I was driving down the road.

Got to west glacier this morning to drive the going to the sun road but you need a ticket to do it. The ranger explained that because there were so many people visiting the park this year they had trouble getting up and down the road during emergencies.  Just a good reason to come back next year...

Usually busy but thorough and get the job done right and warranty their work. It's my first choice for repairs and tires.

Friday the 13th lives. This morning on my way to the shop to get work done on my rig I got rear-ended. Fortunately I have a hitch on the back of my truck and only damage was the rubber cover for my hitch ball fell off. The other vehicle (a Mercedes) had bumper pushed in and grill destroyed...

Since my wife and I started traveling back in June I have lost 37 lbs and going. It's not a bad thing as I have plenty I want to lose. We've made dietary mistakes while on the road and now eat much healthier. We have quickly noticed some of our food choices in the past we're a slow suicide and...

We just got back to home base from being in the mountains for vehicle repairs before we leave again on the 13th. While we were camping we had other people camping in the site down from us and on their last day there they were using a chainsaw to cut some logs to have a fire. We're currently in a...

So, we left yesterday for an extended road trip and at our spot I was bitten by a biting fly on my elbow and now my whole arm is swollen up like my leg was last week. Waiting to be seen then headed back to camp.

Starting to wonder if I am just unlucky or cursed. Our first trip out ended when I developed edema in my legs, 2nd trip ended after trying to sleep in back packing tent and 3rd trip I was bitten by a bug that caused an infection within 12 hours of being bit. We went back to site after hospital...

Before I started getting ready for the road someone asked me if I named my rig. I thought about it and never did name it so my first instinctive response was, her name is "Mistress"! They asked why that name and with a smile on my face I replied "because she shows me things I've never seen...

I just got discharged from er at local hospital because my leg swelled up and currently waiting for prescription to be filled. After that back to camping where I originally was bitten.

:-/ We finally got our truck ready to go and this happened. We were driving along the highway going around a left hand curve at 65 m.p.h. and the passenger side front tire was shaking so bad I thought the whole thing was going to fall apart and break up. Taking it to shop this Friday to have it...
