    World Apprentice: Volunteer Overlander

    The FWC is absolutely wonderful, and really making this adventure very comfortable, while still keeping my "footprint" rather small & nimble. My little Taco definitely feels the weight of the camper, but I pretty much drive like a grandpa now to get the best fuel economy possible, and to...

    World Apprentice: Volunteer Overlander

    For the past several weeks I've been "off the grid" in some more remote places of Guatemala, mostly volunteering at little organic farm near Lago Atitlán. I did spend a wonderful few weeks with the Denning family (of discovershareinspire.com) who are currently driving from Alaska to Argentina...

    Road hazards in Mexico! This is my first stab at trying to put together a video in iMovie. And a good reminder why not to drive at night in developing countries! Very glad to have Baja Bound Mexican Insurance - but hope not to have to use it any time soon.

    Thanks Phil! I'm sure I could round up some glowing third-party references on Carter if need be. Hopefully a sailboat will allow him aboard. I'd much prefer that over air travel. So far my preference of travel while my truck is being shipped around the Darien Gap is: Sailboat Kayak Backpack...

    World Apprentice: Volunteer Overlander

    After several months of planning, I’m just days away from crossing south into Mexico on my drive from Arizona to Argentina. I decided to take a year-or-so extended leave of absence from my office duties in order to head out on a grand adventure. The idea is to not only volunteer at various...

    BFG All-Terrain 265/75 R16 (unmounted), in Prescott, AZ

    SOLD I have a used BFG All-Terrain 265/75 R16 for sale. This was from a previous set of tires that I had on my truck back in 2005. I don't think it has more than 500-1,000 road miles. It is somewhat weathered from spending most of its life underneath my truck as a spare. Asking: $75.

    Super Z LT snow chains (Prescott, AZ)

    SOLD Get ready for winter!! I bought these Super Z Lt snow chains new back around 2004. I used them twice to go play in the snow, but they've been in storage other than that. They did fit on my 255/85 R16 BFG Mud Terrains, but just barely. Asking $50. Prefer local pick up, but if you want to...
