I ordered my 2021 sarge green Willy's Jeep Gladiator from the factory with the manual transmission, dual tops, factory sprayed bedliner, tan heated seats and heated steering wheel, factory tonneau cover that's made from the same material as the soft top, and some other options. I love driving it and I'm looking forward to try it with the windshield down the next time I go on the trails. It pulls my 4 place snowmobile trailer just fine as well.

Few things... 1. I understand having to be on a schedule because of life obligations, but I enjoy scheduling 'Zero Days' into my excursions to just unwind & relax & not worry about driving 400-500 miles for that day. That's just me. I know I don't think for everyone & everyone is different. 2. I don't think it's Canada itself that people don't like. Canada is beautiful, untamed land that most only dream about visiting. The issue lies with their Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau & his Liberal controversial policies from the COVID-19 mandatory laws to the automobile regulations & unwanted EV push. Both Canada & the U.S. need a total government change! 3. Being from Texas, what in the heck is Tim Horton's restaurant? Never heard or tried it.

Got tips for storing the oil after cooking? Always our challenge camping - dealing with hot spent fry oil. (getting it from the pan, into a container, storing / discarding).
@ruggeddestinations7633
@ruggeddestinations7633 2 месяца назад
We’ve had thick paper or cardboard to make a funnel to get it back in a container. A funnel takes up more space than we’d like, so we avoid taking one if we can. We compost the oil at home. If you’ll be on the trail for a few days you can burn the oil in a fire a little at a time.
