July 31 - August 3rd (long weekend) Big Overland Outdoor Buzz Search,

You mean my LT savings?!

But yes, good point along with garbage bags etc for cleanup

 

Lol your LT.....I thought it was for a lucky members elkas shocks....

 

2-way radios. Bought two orange Cobras. Batteries last all weekend.

 

I dont think i can make this one but I'd love to join for the fall run, when and where is this tentatively planned for?

I'm in a stock truck so I have to pick my adventures correctly.

@Norilsk how are they, you happy with that purchase?

 

We have adopted the south trail in Ardbeg (municipality of Whitestone). We will be doing the fall run there and will be doing a clean up at that tome as well! The trail can be done stock (entrance and most of the south trail). All depends on your comfort level of course. Worst case it it a great camping weekend!

that’s my next setup. The 2.5 without resevoirs.

 

Good to hear, I have started saving for my upgrade to these. My billies dont want to let me go as fast as I want on my fire road adventures.

 

I've got the 2.5 without resi at the front. Too much trouble with resi in our climate and I don't want to deal with it.

Got 50K+ on them so far and they are doing great. I also got for much less than they are now

 

Nice!@



That is awesome to hear, I am not sure exactly what I am getting yet. Resi or no resi. I will figure it out in a year or so.

 

I’m just going no resi to keep packaging easier. I figure compared to the OmE these will be worlds difference as is. Save some mulla for trips lol. Think it’s a $600 extra for resis off the top of my head.

 

So couple of years ago I crossed NewFoundland on atv and the guys I went with all had these. I found mine and apparently Its already programmed for channel 4 gmrs. Can anyone confirm please.... I did look up those frequency # and it corresponds to a channel 4 so I'm hoping it will work

 

Oh you got a ham radio! Very nice. That will work. You are able to get gmrs on that. Absolute worst case we can program to what you are on and absolute worst case #2 I have a spare. You’ll be fine. Last resort is yelling out the window lol

 

All gmrs channels were programmed on it. there all still there. Thanks.

So since I have not been out with any Tacoma owners b4 I was just wondering how things go with

1. Fire wood
2. Bathroom
3. convoy travel
4. food and drink
5. sleeping arrangments
6. contingencies if someone becomes immobile
7. first aid if anyone needs

I'm sure all will be fine just curious, or maybe funny answers comming IDK...

 

Essentially what ever accommodations you need to camp (I have my wife and the dog so I bring a shit ton of water and a hotel with me) , what ever things you need to repair your vehicle (generally since we all have the same vehicle we can share obviously but if you have something that requires a special tool/part you may want to bring that). Extra fuel is always handy (I’ll be bringing 20L).

 

You only need firewood for Ardbeg,

I dont think I can make it to Ardbeg on Friday, So I will be meeting you guys once you hit the North Bay area.

Unlimited (not @Norilsk unlimited ) firewood awaits in North Bay. I will supply what ever is needed.

 

I'm arriving Friday evening. I work to 3 so I will be packed and head up from downtown then. I'll bring some firewood for Ardbeg.
What time is everyone scheduled to arrive?

 

I'll be there Friday morning.

 

Going to be leaving Cambridge Friday morning.
