Cottonland Overland Opine Thread

[wngrog]

Got some free time next weekend and a few days after that. Since it’s raining everywhere east of MS river for the foreseeable future, thinking of heading west for a few days.

Big bend for a long weekend anyone?

Gone yet?

Or save yourself 400 man-hours: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Rampage-...61793&wl11=online&wl12=47741882&wl13=&veh=sem

And what freshman is gonna carry a Jerry can to the frat party?

Orrrr... save yourself the 400 man hours and the seventy five bucks at Walmart and just drink your crunk juice straight from the source:

Anybody have experience with drawer style fridges? As my 80 series has become a dedicated Overland vehicle I’m looking for the best way to have a full sleeping platform and have a fridge.

At 17” tall this Dometic would fit under a sleeping platform.

I would wonder if it would take the abuse that the other style fridges would.

That’s my main concern. It has the same Danfoss compressor as the ARB fridges. I’m wondering if the drawer has a latch or if it’s just a push to close.

Looking at thier site it appears the bigger 31 qt has a latch pull handle , “unlock and opens with a single movement” Refrigerators Refrigeration | Dometic

I’d be equally as concerned with efficient battery usage.

Hey I'm overlanding !!! Or at least the best I can do on a hour notice, got a whim and we threw a sleeping bag in and took off with no real plan, had a tree rip the canoe racks off the 60 on a tight trail , stopped at Oark and see the door Is full of stickers , note the Lou's, Nolen and #EAF ones, and they have started on the windows. We are currently sitting in the rigs waiting for the rain to slack up to set up camp.Gonna mess around, I mean overland around white rock mt. tomorrow

 

[Bomar]

Man so jealous.

Man so jealous.

the really suck part is since I didn’t really grab much food on such short notice I’m afraid we are going to have to settle for the awesome breakfast at Oark store before venturing westward. Life can be tough in this overlanding world
