Corey at Viewpoint Campervans gave me this build order. It reflects a sequence tested repeatedly at the professional level. This isn’t Reddit theory or advice borrowed from an Instagram or YouTube “van lifer.” It’s a sequence refined in a professional shop environment, where mistakes cost real time and real money. 　　You don’t need to be a carpenter or electrician to...

　　Ram has finally figured out how to give the Power Wagon a Cummins diesel engine. All it had to do was drop one of the trucks signature features. 　　But if youre OK with trading some actual pulling power — in the form of an electric winch — in favor of some stump-pulling torque, then the 2027 Ram Power Wagon diesel...

　　As I inched through a sagebrush flat, I could feel the mule deer I was stalking 60 yards away grow more alert. My heavy Zamberlan boots were the culprit. Each step sounded like a crashing anvil in the silent landscape, and the deers ears perked up every time my foot hit the ground. I crouched down, untied the laces, and...

　　Camping in the winter is not for the faint of heart. It’s cold. It’s wet. And it requires a lot of gear and layers. But the best part about camping in the off-season is that it’s typically uncrowded, quiet, and beautiful. 　　Ive always been a fan of sleeping outside. I love the smell of campfires, the fresh air, and waking...

　　Finally, an affordable off-road sports car. Its called the Kuhl Outroad GR86, and its the RWD alternative to a Porsche 911 Dakar or Lamborghini Sterrato with a few zeros cut from the price tag. 　　This Time, GR Stands for Gravel-Ready 　　 　　(Photo/Kuhl-Japan) At its heart, this is Toyotas GR86 sports car lifted and made more rugged. Its an answer to...

　　Waterfowl hunting is the most gear-intensive activity I participate in — boats, decoys, guns, waders, jackets, calls, etc. And dont even get me started on all the extra equipment and expense that comes with a gun dog. Its a lot. The last thing Ive ever wanted to do was add a niche bag, like the Drake Waterfowl Large Blind Bag,...

　　Dont mess this up, was the only thought that went through my head as I lowered my head to the rifle and took aim at a whitetail doe. I was in Oklahoma, hunting out of a blind with Greg Ray, owner of Outdoor Solutions, on a media trip. Suffering through airports, long drives, and zeroing in on the range all...

　　In a potentially unprecedented accident, a helicopter crashed this weekend after flying into a slackline in Arizona, resulting in the deaths of all four people on board. 　　On Jan. 2, emergency services received reports of a helicopter crash in Telegraph Canyon, a popular hiking and OHV area, according to a statement from the Pinal County Sheriffs Office.

　　This article originally appeared on The Inertia. 　　Humans have become pretty reliable for leaving trash all over the place.From the deepest reaches of the ocean to the highest points on Earth, human-made debris has made its way into every nook, cranny, recess, niche, alcove, cubbyhole, opening, and any other word that shows up when I Google “synonym for nook.” 　　One...

　　REI is well-known for its generous return policy. Co-op members have a year to return almost any product, even if its been used. That product then gets placed in the used gear section, where members can buy it at major discounts. 　　Whenever a customer returns a product, a sales associate creates a tag with the product info, the new discounted...

　　Usually, taking a middle-of-the-road approach in outdoor equipment doesnt work out well. Hybrid style products sound great in theory, but trying to take the best part of one thing and combine it with the best part of another often results in a product thats not good at anything, rather than good at everything. The Plano Diverge Gun case is the...

　　Whether its spoons, jerkbaits, bladebaits, or crankbaits, I love fishing treble-hooked lures. You cant beat the feeling of a fish smoking a moving lure. I despise storing them, though. 　　Sticking them in most tackle boxes results in a giant, tangled mess. Instead of quickly swapping lures and making your next cast, youre left vigorously shaking a wad of sharp objects,...
