2011 East Coast Camp Commander / May 17 - 22

I would also recommend that people print out Don's Gear List for packing. As much as I camp one trip I forgot tent stakes and Don saved my butt for sure. If I would of used his list that wouldn't of happened.

Some other items to think about.
fire extinguisher is a must you should have one. Tool kit is a real good idea, a small 50 piece will work its just in case. A bag of zip ties those things come in real handy. Welding rods you can make a trail welder with jumper cables and a battery. BUG SPRAY bring your bug spray I have two bottles in my jeep all the time. Fresh batteries for all your lights lamps music and so forth.

I have an 18v sawzall that can cut. That should help. There are several places close to me that have crates/skids for the taking. I will grab some of those.

I wouldn't bother hauling any wood down here bro. There is lots of fallen wood at Uwharrie and I kept a huge amount of wood from building my shed and the outpost sells it real cheap. We'll be good man save the gas money and the cargo space.

Cool deal. I got my new Flowmaster welded on today !!

I see you have the 3.7L...... I can't wait to hear it in person as I've been weary of upgrading the exhaust. I don't want my Commander to have that fart can sound. So, how does it sound?

I would like to go to my local surplus store and purchase a compass......What am I looking for? I don't need nothing fancy, just something that will get me out of where I'm lost. I'm a noob at this so, any help would be greatly appretiated. I do have a compass app on my smart phone but, what if the battery dies!!! AHH!!!!!!

[Sal-XK]

This is the one we use. I picked one up for like $7.00 works great. But anything similar will work, if you can't find one let me know.

Like a fart can. LOL ! No , really it sounds good I think. It has a totally different sound from inside the cab than what you hear from behind it. Compared to the tire noise , you dont really notice the muffler while cruising at 50 mph. you really hear it when accelerating thru the gears though.
