I love making stuff so my big project is going to be the front and rear bumpers.
Doing the power inverter mods are great. Hard wire it to the battery with 4 guage wire and get an inline fuse

I agree, the reason I tell people 4 guage is cause I never know what size inverter they get and the larger the inverter the larger the wire. But it's true most common inverters only need 8 and some cases 6

I will admit, the offroad challenge is the best idea they have come up with thus far. The Brittish version, however, is much better. And there can only be one The Stig.

I'll be honest I've never watched this show before, I saw the preview for it during ice road truckers. When I saw offroad I immediately paid attention

Try the Brittish version. It comes on BBC America from time to time. Much better imo.
