    I am currently doing this for Best Buy gift cards. Either getting a Surface Pro 4 or a new DSLR set up. I have $450 so far and need to cash in some more points.

    Grab a delorme gazateer for VT. They are the best way to find class 6 roads. Just note that while the class 6 roads are public most of the land adjacent to them is private property.

    Did 30 miles each way in the dirt last weekend to this camp spot and used my RTT and ARB Fridge. Am I an Overlander yet? :rolleyes: 8ft from the edge of the Grand Canyon South Rim

    I actually had to do a 6 point turn to back into that spot to make sure my ladder wasn't on the edge side. Falls are definitely something to be careful of out there. I wouldn't camp in this spot with kids or if your dog is a little too brave and likes walking up to the edge.

    I just leave the foot of the jack in the back of the truck behind the seat. Beats hearing that constant rattle noise.

    Step in the right direction for my mid travel overland build.

    Now I need skids, roof rack, and rear bumper.

    I need a mid travel expo suspension. I think I will have to call Slee Offroad tomorrow and see what they suggest. I love my old man emu suspenion but the down travel leaves a lot to be desired.
