Not to answer for Dennis, but I'd say the answer depends on how back country you want to get. I wouldn't take my bird up the highway, as I believe a vehicle suffers too much. I rode it on motorcycles and sold the one, while the wife still has hers. It's been 11 years and I can still find highway dirt on that bike! But to get back to topic, to truly see the backcountry, you need a plane!

Thanks John for the info and help,
I saw a TV special once and some of Dennis's older pics and indeed it looked like He "flew" in to the back country. I am intrigued to see what he has to say about the truck camper and it's applicability after hang'in out there for 20 years! Big Grin

. Truth be told..I'm thinking about another new set of toys...... a fully loaded diesel dually 4x4 with an Artic fox on the back! Tongue

It has been on my wish list for years and on my next trip out west I am going to stop at the Artic fox factory for a tour......now, I KNOW I cannot use that setup for a toad UNLESS I upgrade the bird!!!!!! Angel

teehee......just kidding about the toad but NOT about the toy......... after a decade of touring the lower 48, I find the new toy setup would work much better in certain area's and use cases.............. and I can "take turns" with the toys............ yeah I here ya about the dirt roads!!!!! :-)......... and to run to Alaska from Florida is a LOT of Diesel in a bird so if one's gonna do it, ya want to get the MOST out of the trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-0..............
