Its funny to see all these sheilds on the h2's, thats what I love about my h1, I can role it, crash it, scrape the crap out of it, and its still looks the same.

All hands please note: When communicating with an H1 driver, it's important to speak to him/her in a language they understand.

For example, there's a correct and an incorrect way to convey morning greetings:

Incorrect: "Good morning."

Correct: "Good morning, may I help you?"

SUT Cargo (http://www.teakatoys.com/product_p/201-524-1.htm)

[TootsSUT]

Yeah, I did see that one and asked about it here on the forum but I got a big NO!!

I can understand why though because the items that I want to put in it would be staying there permanently and I would want to have them locked in and secured to the vehicle. I also want to be able to remove it when camping so there is room in the vehicle to sleep.

I'm not needy, am I?

Everybody keep your fingers crossed.....JNSTITZ and I are taking Toots out for her first run in her Tonka Toy! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif We're gonna do Rowher this morning and it's a beautiful day! Pics to follow.....

Toots, check this out. This is a steel tool box made by delta. It's pretty small. You mount a bracket to the floor of truck bed, install the on the bracket and twist the latches INSIDE the box. Then lock the box. It's not real secure unless you added hasps and padlocks on both sides so you wouldn't want to put anything really valuable in it. Also you could have it black spray on bedliner to make it black. The only problem would be the bracket is about an inch tall - you would have to have some pretty thick bedding not to feel it.

[Bondage]

A quick pictorial history of The Mojave Road in 7 parts..... http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

PART ONE
The Mojave Indians created a "footpath" thru the desolate and difficult desert as a trade route with Indian tribes on the coast. They found enough natural springs to make the trip survivable and, when the white man came, they showed him the way. Ancient Indian petroglyphs (estimated to be 2 to 3,000 years old) are still visible at some of the springs along the way! Men like Smith and Fremont and Carson made the first "maps" and writings of the route. This cooperation between the Mojave's and the white men would not last long. It would become a very dangerous journey due to both the harsh conditions - and the Indians who would regret showing us the way....

[Bondage]

PART TWO

More and more whites came. On foot, on horseback, and by wagon train. Where the distances were too great between springs, we dug wells. Army outposts were established at some of the springs and wells to keep the Indians away. These outposts were harsh, difficult, and lonely. The highest desertion rate in the history of the US Army was established at the outpost at Rock Springs!

[Bondage]

PART THREE

Then the trains came. And the road all but died for awhile. This Tonopah & Tidewater Line ran from about 1906 into the 1930's. During WWII, the rails were torn up to feed the war machine's need for steel. All that is left now is a strange berm in the desert - and an occasional railroad tie in the middle of nowhere!

[Albie]

hey are we still doing this....sorry was super busy...........

[Bondage]

PART FOUR

Homesteaders came - and some of the first automobiles tried "The Road." The conditions were almost impossible - including this snowstorm in the early 20's! They tried ranching and farming with little success. Most claims that were established were eventually abandoned.

[Bondage]

PART FIVE

Several booming cattle operations were eventually established and FLOURISHED from just after WWII until the Clinton administration put an end to it. The corral behind these cowboys is still standing - and we'll drive right past it!

[Bondage]

PART SIX

As more and more uses were restricted, the road died. It was rediscoverd as a recreational trail as off-roading began to grow in popularity in the late 60's and early 70's. Though those on the left would like to throw all vehicles out and preserve this land so that future generations can't enjoy it either http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif it is, for the time being, open for travel. Whoops - this guy is STUCK! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

[Bondage]

PART SEVEN

As far as I know, there has never been such a caravan of HUMMERS as we are going to take across The Road in two weeks. WE will write the next - but hopefully not the FINAL chapter in the history of The Mojave Road. And Feinstein and Boxer can go straight to hell.

[Bondage]

Hey Albie!

Sent you a couple emails about this recently (maybe to the Yahoo account, don't remember). One more email headed your way later today after I scout the Saturday morning meeting location.

You coming with us?

Edit: To be clear, we are at our target cap of 15 so if you want to go, you're on the wait list. That'll teach you to check your email! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Well aren't we both being productive with our rigs today! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif Sounds like I'm having a little more luck. I cut down and rounded off the plates and got everything a lovely shade of black on my HiLift mount.

Thanks again to PhilD - his design! It's easy (if I can do it, anyone can) and solid as a rock! Makes a great first step up to the Gobi ladder! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif All I'm missing now is the handle keeper - and that should be here tomorrow or Tues.

Metal can?

Because you have 4 inches of rack depth, you can probably put your can on one of its big sides and ratchet-strap it in place. A rubber cushion between the can and rack will keep it from slipping and will protect your rack from scratches.

Or you could buy Garvin's J-can rack, which is similar to what I was building today. What I built will work but I'm not real happy with it so will likely pursue version 4. My SUT bed rack is only 2 inches deep. For a variety of reasons that are too complicated http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif to explain, that's giving me some headaches.

Yea i was looking there, i was kind of worried about it fitting...i lost a fight to an old jerry can 1944 vintage. pretty rusty inside.
gave up and bought a new one, after my acid trick did not get all the crud out.

[rodster]

If it were my truck, I'd be reluctant to have the can standing upright on the roof as pictured. That's just screaming for a tree branch to whack it good. A flat mount -- however you do it -- would probably work best.

Edspad -- check out this can mount. (http://www.4wheelparts.com/4wp/products/productline.asp?cat=ACC&man=GAS&prodline=1336&catName=General%20Accessories#) You can mount your can vertical or horizontal with one of these.

No I sure Dont , No Rocker bars eitherhttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif im going to have to be kind of careful on this run. i dont want my wife getting the wrong impression of what it means to have a good time
off road..Pin stripes or banged up Q panal will not help my case...lol </div></BLOCKQUOTE>


Don't worry about the rocker bars - you can drive the whole Road and not really need 'em - unless you wanted to do some of the more difficult side stuff you really will be fine without them.

On an H2 I highly recommend the shields. An H3 just may be narrow enough to squeek by untouched. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

And about the low hanging Joshua tree branches....I wouldn't want a can of fuel sticking up there.....

I dunno, Bondage ... Looking at those pictures is doesn't look all that narrow. We're talking stuff that's easily waxed out?

I've driven through much tighter spots (some full of dead growth) and have yet to get a scratch that can't be waxed out (by the mobile detail guy http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif) so I probably won't put the shields on. They are a PITA to put on!

That's pretty cool. Wouldn't work on a H2 with its 8 on 6.5 bolt pattern. Edspad, if you take a look in the H3 tech thread you'll probably be able to figure out your bolt pattern based on what kind of aftermarket wheels people are buying.

Here's what I learned:

Rodster is gay. He owns a motel/leather bar in the middle of the desert called the Bun Boy.

HummBebe is very cool. She is going to run Rodster over in her BLACK BebeRhino.

I have a son I never knew existed.

Quahogs wear pale merkins. They wear leather ones with spikes when staying at the Bun Boy.

Geocaching is ghey.

realmengocampingwhilethe"others"stayattheBunBoy

PhilD is mos def DA MAN!

JonStitz is a smart@$$.

RacerX's real name is Minute Man.

HummerLV likes the radio clip of the Hindenburg disaster.

RonB's nickname should be Chatty Cathy.

Toots is addicted to E-Bay.

Edspad is going to die a horrible fiery death at the hands of a Joshua tree.

We are going to have a very memorable time on the Mojave Road.

Thank you. That is all.

Sorry - To clarify I am coming from San Fran Bay area (about 7 hours north) and my friend is coming from Ramona (In the hills above San Diego). Not sure what route he will be taking but I will be coming down I5. Haven't done the map research in exactly what highways I'll be taking after I5 since I will be inputting my destination into my GPS and just following what it tells me to do.

I will email him today and ask him what route he is taking. I directed him to this thread to catch up. He read a bit of it and now he;s all stoked to go...LOL Must mean you guys (and gals) sound like fun.

Here I am! racer's official colorful sidekick and navigator http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif

Thanks for the invite by the way. Love a good road trip.

As far as driving up from San Diego/Ramona...I'm very flexible regarding route/meeting place.

The most direct way seems to be up North up I15 towards Victorville or spots nearby.

HummBeBe is right, I think. Barstow is a few miles towards SD from Afton Canyon, which is where we'll exit the trail.

Just looked at my Delorme Atlas, and yep Barstow is just down the road from Afton Canyon exit. Plus Barstow intersects I40, which goes to Needles.

I can just park my beat up Explorer SUV on a side road or something, cant imagine wanting it.

[Bondage]

Hey RacerX and Beavis (what're you doing Racer, trying to get your name changed from Minute Man to Butthead? http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif) are you two planning on coming up/down Friday evening?

There is an odd little store at the Afton Cyn. exit off the 15. The owner and "emplyees" seem like a bunch of recovering alcoholics, bet they are really good guys! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif Typical desert folks. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif Seriously, there is a ton of parking there and never any customers. LOL If you pull in and talk to them, I'm sure they wouldn't mind if you left your car there and that is right about where we'll end the Road trip!

After meeting there, Racer would backtrack N on the 15 (don't you guys dare go down and pre-run Afton Canyon first! DON'T DO IT!! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif)to the Nipton Rd. exit. Turn right onto Nipton Rd. and go 31.4 miles to US95 south. Go south on 95 for 43.5 miles and merge onto I-40East/95S via the ramp on the LEFT. This will take you to Needles in about 8.5 miles.

Izzat clear as mud? http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif

BTW - WELCOME Beavis. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif Batman had Robin, Cisco had Poncho, The Lone Ranger had Tonto, Marshall Dillon had Festus, and now RacerX has Beavis. You just KNOW that your CB handle will now be Beavis and Butthead, right?

If you take Nipton Road, you'll pick up 95 in Searchlight. The Vegas crew will be passing through there Saturday morning about 7:45 a.m.

If you want to lessen the Friday drive, you could stay in Searchlight and ride south with us on Saturday.

They may be young but they definitely are not tuned out ...

Last night my 7 year old informed me she knows what kind of car she's going to buy when she's 16 (and I quote): "an H3 with 4 inch lift". http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

So I showed her a pic of HummerLV's new ride. She got a big smile and even bigger eyes and asked if he was bringing it.

"Nope."

"Well Daddy, that sucks." http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Most likely... Though its a little early for the good stuff to pass on through, lot of unusual types nest in the Joshua Trees and surrounding habitat.

Little background info, Got a biology degree from Univ. of Oregon, love nature, and tried at one time to become an independent birding/nature guide in Southern California.

Last time I was up that way, I saw a red fox (no not Redd Foxx) in broad daylight which was pretty cool.

Might see desert tortoise, tarantula, prob. too early/cold for snakes and for sure coyotes...

Last night my 7 year old informed me she knows what kind of car she's going to buy when she's 16 (and I quote): "an H3 with 4 inch lift". http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

So I showed her a pic of HummerLV's new ride. She got a big smile and even bigger eyes and asked if he was bringing it.

"Nope."

"Well Daddy, that sucks." http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Adult themes seem to fly right past kids but the words have a way of sticking. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

We changed it to "that stinks." Even older now, they've still stuck with that. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Excellent critter collection. Last year we went looking for Bighorn Sheep and their babies in the Sheep Mountains north of Vegas. Never did find any. The kids would go ga-ga if we saw some on this trip.

Off-track tidbit: On one of our trips last year to Central/NO NV we saw a small group of antelope. Them suckas can run! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif
