    What a wonderful Mothers Day Gift...I lost my dear George Washme (a Jeep Liberty) in an auto accident a couple of years ago, George was equipped for 3day overnight and had used it. George lost his life and I continue to rehab from numerous fractures..the solar aspect is still in its learning phase! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

    I've been traveling with a folding E bike, and a 15 gallon container and 60 litre pack, utilizing public transportation to get relatively close to my destination first, then either a cab, or hitch, or the bike if not too far to get the rest of the way to the trail head or city or wherever I'm exploring. Its been a great, super fun way to experience all kinds of different journeys.

    Cool truck, me and wife test drove a few gladiators fall in love with it. The only things made us change our minds was the latest increase in the prices anything from $5k to$9k. The other reason was maybe space for our toddler and our 3 dogs and gear so we decided to get a Titan PRO4X just got a canopy and like you said the word overlanding is overrated.

  • @josephcarter3922
    @josephcarter3922 3 года назад

    Thanks for taking the time to share your ideas with us! I’ve been doing a similar build with my 2005 Tundra and I agree that recovery is number one if you are doing anything off a paved road, i.e. US Forest Service roads. I’ve got a shell on it and to keep my budget low I organized with plastic bins and that allows me to shift things around or put them in the cab if I want to sleep in the bed. Looking forward to seeing more of your truck!

  • @craterslim7447
    @craterslim7447 3 года назад +1

    Been a watcher of your videos for years now, but I have to say the gladiator is the last straw for me! 😂 for real though, love the videos man. A huge inspiration in my life for sure. Keep up the good work!👌

    I'm so excited you went in the direction of overlanding, which has become very popular recently! My wife and I love overland camping and we are very excited to see your new gear and the adventures yet to come! God bless you and yours David!

    In Australia we get 2 specs of Gladiator. The nighteagle and the rubicon.
    Both run the 4.10 gearing and we have discovered that our nighteagle, although it doesn’t come with lockers according to Jeep, actually does. Same lockers as the rubicon.
    They’re just not wired up.
    So a lot of our ARB stores are wiring them up. Still costs several hundred $ AU but much less that the full cost of lockers
    Yours might be the same and it’s a cheaper way to have that peace of mind.
    Cheers from Aus 👍🏻

    I like the look of the Gladiator. I always wanted a Scrambler. Good looking Jeep.
    Car camping is all I do anymore. Haven't put a backpack on in twenty years. Doubt I could get far with one on my back.

  • @DougShoeBushcraft
    @DougShoeBushcraft 3 года назад +9

    Very cool, Dave! Much better than the dune buggy I made out of a Chevette back in the day. But poor boys can have fun, too.

  • @jamesmiddleton6464
    @jamesmiddleton6464 3 года назад

    Car camping is by far more family friendly as well. Backcountry hiking with a smaller child can be a real ordeal for both child and parent.
    P.s. I still use the coleman two burner stove that my father bought in 1976. Still cooks as well as the stove at home. The only maintenance so far has been to wipe off spills and store properly with greased o-rings. Still have the spares that came with it in a little plastic bag.

    Videos like this one are why I know I can trust what you say, about techniques and products, because you TEST everything yourself. So what about the Dual Survival days. I have found you to be more than trust worthy, over the years of watching nearly every video you have produced.
    Great intro into this series, now I know why you did the last tow about the truck bed insert.
    Please continue making more about knots, line and rope, etc.
    I'm looking forward to more on this subject. ;-)

  • @internetcatfish

    I think we have found the one way to get a gladiator to not look ugly. It needs the shell to look right in my opinion.

    Gladiator is a great vehicle. Bought mine last fall. I bought a powertank co2 tank for air up as well as a powertank propane tank. Both attatched to the bed with a builtright industries bedside mount system. Lift, tires, winch, bumpers next. Also invested in a ham radio system for communications. If you order a sport s with the max tow package it will get you the better axles and 4.10 gears of a rubicon without having to pay the rubicon price. Also, join tread lightly and get a fca discount 1% under invoice.

    Great video Dave. I probably would recommend adding atleast, a rear swichable locker, it can minimize the need for pulling out the recovery gear. The rear cover is really nice, smart. I look forward to more on this topic.

    Kind of the same train of thought I've been taking my Tahoe since the day I bought it. My route is a little more modular and portable, in that I'm using the Ridgid brand of tool cases to house/stow my gear. Nice rig, congrats on getting it.

    Nice Jeep Dave, my JL has given me battery problems twice now its an 2018, with 14,000 miles on it. The chicken sht little battery under the fuse box is always a problem. My warranty ends in June and at that point Im putting a Genesis dual battery system. Other than that I use an Ikamper 2 with a hard shell, king size bed and its fast up and fast down. Good luck!

Looking forward to your reviews on solar energy. I've just started the research myself. So far I can build a system I need for about 1/3 of the cost of Jackery.

    A front locking differential is worth every penny. You might not even need recovery gear if you're only doing mild 4 wheeling. Once you have one, you'll never go without it.

    I just designed and made a bed rack for my gladiator with car camping in mind. I've made a hammock hanger off the passenger side that folds out to accommodate a 10 ft hammock.
    I didn't think about the lift and 37s I put on it so I'm kinda hanging higher than I like.

    Great channel Dave. I think you would be interested in checking out Casey's "Coyote Works" you tube channel. He lives in central Oregon and does a lot of the things you talk about in this video. There are of course differences - but, an amazing amount of similar ideas: jeeps, recovery gear, roof-top tents, overlanding, camping gear, bugout kits, etc., etc. Keep up the good work.

  • @tobynoe6149
    @tobynoe6149 3 года назад

    I agree! You have to get in and get out. Getting out is more important than getting in. Lol I'm all in on the backwoods truck camping. My girlfriend makes fun of me because I pack a ruck and throw it in the back of my truck. She doesn't understand I want to do the most with the least gear, and at 58, I can't walk like I used to. Ain't getting any easier and I'm not ready to stop.
