And what I am saying is your experience is not the only lens through which to view the universe. Being a member of its target market does not make you the entirety. I have a station wagon I take camping. All my crap stays in it because I ride a motorcycle when I’m not camping. There’s still plenty of room for

FWIW - the beauty of the RTT is that all your bedding stays put. It’s comfortable on any terrain - so if it’s wet, or rocky, or whatever, it really doesn’t matter. And it’s very easy and fast to setup and take down. However, IMO it actually does work much better on a trailer. A trailer allows you to store all your

Anything truck related seems to offend the majority here. I’ve been looking at getting a RTT and would do the same. Why would a person go through the trouble of taking it off after each camping trip? It’s nice to have everything ready so all you need to do is grab your cooler and go. 

This is what drives me mad.  If someone is driving a vehicle they like, just let them be for fucks sake.  

Pressure washers and wax are a thing. Some folks play hard from 5 pm Friday through 12 pm Sunday, spray off the rig, and give it a once over with the spray detailer.

Not sure what’s wrong with these? They’ve gotten me unstuck before and work great as levelling blocks when needed.

I’m with you, but hey people like stuff, just because it’s not MY stuff and I think it’s stupid doesn’t mean they shouldn’t...

Whats wrong with recovery boards? I keep a pair in my 4x4 - i bought them the day after i first got stuck (of course). They and a shovel are about all one needs most of the time.

Take it off. You know they’re removable, right?

The number of roof-top tents I’ve seen on commuters in the last couple years is just stupid.

Some people can’t have multiple cars. Some people take on vacation a year and choose for that to be spent overlanding. The same rigs you see out on the toughest trails still go to work during the week and stop at the mall for pants. You track your sports car 90% of the time? You bitch that people drive around in their

What’s wrong with the XBulls? I believe an Aussie off-roading channel reviewed them and found them just as, or nearly as good as the Maxtrax.

Ford’s response, probably:

Given that it will inevitably be a crew cab I’m guessing the bed will be 3ft. long. 

Fiesta-based small pickup!

Well sure if you’re some kinda millionaire.

“... your weird friend on the day after a poorly-chosen haircut experiment”

are we really going to segregate language to try to wash away some of the guilt some white people carry because other white people did shit in the past?
Spirit Animal are english words dude! This has to be the most nonsensical debate I have ever seen.

So you never use Jesus as an expression, or “Christ!” or , “oh hell”, and so on?

For whom is “spirit animal” a cultural term, though? The Natives i know (Northeast north america, mostly) have clans with animal totems, but they don’t hold those animals in particular reverence, nor do they equate “clan animal” with “spirit animal”, as the former is familial, and the latter, personal.

I want to
