    2003 new style. At the time I had plans on traveling with it, soon after I discovered adventure motorcycles and was so focused on that the F150 was neglected. It has 70,000 now and is like new. I’d do a 70 mile trip to Costco with it occasionally but that was it. Well, I’ve become old and...

    I’m departing for Tuktoyaktuk soon.

    This will be my 4th trip to the Arctic. I’m leaving next week right after the Touratech rally. My chosen tires have been hard to source but I finally got them and just need mount them. Then my iPhone started having issues so made an emergency purchase. It should be here tomorrow. Now I...

    Ideas please, motorcycle on a 4X6 RTT equipped trailer.

    I’m designing a light weight trailer with a low mounted RTT. I’d like to mount a motorcycle across the tongue close to the trailer. My motorcycle weighs 350 pounds. Have you seen this done before?

    Garmin Overlander

    I think the rebate ended so I don’t have to think about it anymore. The Tacoma came with a backup camera.

    Garmin Overlander

    Ive been using the new Garmin Zumo XT on my motorcycle and have been considering the new Overlander for my Tacoma. I believe both have similar features so the transition would be easy. Then I though I should be reasonable and just use the Zumo in the Tacoma so I just ordered a car mount for...

    Any longtime riders quit for good?

    I’m 71. I’m exploring some gold mines and ghost towns in the Nevada desert right now solo. No intentions of quitting.

    New trailer problems

    I’ll probably take it in, just not looking forward to taking it back to Portland. It takes a day just getting it there than driving back home. I haven’t even used it yet.

    New trailer problems

    I bought a new 17’ toy hauler and I’m working out some of the problems. One issue is the bathroom door. I originally thought it was warped but it turns out the far (forward) wall is crooked. The bottom of the wall could stand to come out 1/2”. Its under warranty but I would rather fix it...
