    You dont need anything fancy to do this kind of trip. I was rocking a ground tent and still on stock suspension/tires. Really just comes down to just getting out there!

    That depends on the truck a lot. Id have to add up how much i used for the offroad part. But for me to get there,offroad, and back home to kc i spent $700 in gas

    Actual offroad i spent ~130ish in gas. I have receipts for gallons used at home if you want to know more, but im at work

    That varies person to person. I use the most by FAR. Ben probably the least and maybe chris...

    Upwards of 1000 in gas sometimes though. But usually 4-600.
