    For those that attend the East/West Expos these teardrop trailers are 10k plus as well. Getting this kind of room on the back of the truck is pretty amazing.

    Saw this on Reddit.com/r/overlanding. Delorme maps is having a sale. Excellent addition to have just in case Gaia or other electronic maps fail you. Came out to around 40%-50% off. Spreading the word:

    Use 10195 in the "priority code" box in order to get the coupon. Picked up the ME, VT/NH, NY, NJ, PA, WV, and VA Gazetteers for $85 (shipped). Killer deal right there.

    Individual maps: https://shop.delorme.com/OA_HTML/DELibeCCtpSctDspRte.jsp?section=10096

    Box set: https://shop.delorme.com/OA_HTML/DELibeCCtpSctDspRte.jsp?section=10097

    I picked up individual maps: AZ, CA, CO, ID, NV, NM, OR, UT, WA, WY for $130 shipped to my house. I made the mistake of not looking at the box sets before ordering. Could have saved $30 if I got the box set that contained the 4 corner states plus NV (AZ,NM, UT, CO, NV) vs buying individual

    Sorry about the repost. I figured it was not posted yet since that article was published this morning. Maybe someone got it from another source recently.

    Looks interesting. I will probably never own something like that, but it's nice to see an alternative to the flip pac. I don't fully understand how that thing can support adults sleeping in the wind. How does it not produce "bounce"? Time will tell...

    Jon...we've covered this with you before...just because you switch back and forth from hand to hand does not make it " group sex " it only makes you ambidextrous
