Skids, sliders are all you need . Realistically if all the trails are fine for you as is then it will just help with protection .

These trucks are actually rather capable as is.

Well you can’t help it if people are idiots. If had a curious bear right before hybrination season when they are extra aggressive press it’s face into my ground tent. Even though I carry a firearm it is not an experience I care to ever repeat. Obviously if a bear wants in it will get it, but I prefer a height advantage.

+1 on dropping "Overlanding" term

I think Christopher Guest should do an "Overlanders" parody film ala "A Mighty Wind" and "Best in Show" featuring a group of head to toe Patagonia sporting, cushy adventurers with their portable espresso machines, fireside filet mignon, and homemade sushi.

Dude. Could be hilarious. Imagine a recovery situation where a winch is removed from a box and screwed to a tree or some shit by a dude in a big puffy down coat.

Hey all,
I had this idea to crowd-source a script (funny story, my phone autocorrected "script" to "scrotum". wtf!?) Maybe more accurate. We'll see.

Anyhew, I think we should create a script for a Christopher Guest movie (A Mighty Wind, Best in Show) that would be a parody of rediculously over the top, outlandish Overlanders.

I will start with the opening scene for "Overlandish"

The hate on "overlanding" has usurped the use of "overlanding" for most played eh?
