But i do keep a some water bottles, a Gerber Machete, and some winter/mechanic gloves in my truck at all times. At my house i have a bag with some cloths, MREs, and water bottles ready to go. I also have a first aid kit, a tool bag, and a 10 gallon jug of gasoline which can be thrown in my truck along with some oil, break fluid, coolant, and other small items.

I have a couple of spring assisted Gerber Coverts too, a nice flipper BG, and a machete BG.
Now for the ultimate BOV, I saw this on POR this morning in a huge expedition thread over there.

THAT IS SWEET!!! Would love one for deep Rocky Mountain hunting trips. When I start the rebuild on mine it is aimed more towards this type of thread, kind of a expedition vehicle. Might look in to getting shell for mine.
*Dropzone* Do you know of any other sites with these's RVs?

The sad fact is if your gear is not all in the vehicle at all times most often your not going to have it when you need it most.
then also the vehicle sitting at home in the garage if your in the earthquake or tornado belt is not a great help.
If I was serious it would have to be a diesel engine old enough to have a manual pump instead of computer just in case someone pops a device causing a EMP that fries all the electronics as not much is shielded since the end of the cold war.
Diesel for another reason I don`t like how the ethanol causes the gas to break down so fast. Then within 2 miles of my place there is likely several thousand gallons of fuel

i'm with you on the diesel. Though being up here in the winter, you'd have to keep it running 24/7.

Thanks, it has been a fun build, and not done yet.
I still need a rear bumper.
Thanks!
I enjoy spending my BB's on it
I am really looking forward to 2012s camping season.
I built this rig up with the intention of being able to camp about anywhere with it and be self sufficient.
I really enjoy exploring the old growth forest roads in the Greenwater area in the shadow of Mount Rainier.
Lots of free places to pull down a forest road and camp for free.
Some by a lake, a stream, or a waterfall.

Sorry I know off topic from the general thread just got excited to see someone who likes to go up there too.

It's probably a dana 20 or similar. Doubt it's a 44.
And I hate to be rude but, other than Corey's Fj, none of the trucks posted in this thread already scream "bug out vehicle."

I think you're right on that one. Probably a Dana axle like what was used on the wolverine conversions.
