But more ready than I was yesterday. I spent the evening working on the Land Rover getting it ready for the overland road trip we’re about to do. It was dark, so no photos. Paint yourself a mind picture or something and I’ll reward you with doggo pictures at the end.
Accomplished
Checked throttle heater leak rate (negligible)
Refilled and bled cooling system
Installed Land Rover official (optional) cup holders
Installed and wired dash cam
Fixed wonky cigarette lighter (conductive tape FTW)
Mounted and wired in GPS
Mounted and wired in backcountry GPS*
Duct taped the hell out of my bumper
Applied the sticker for this trip (TQ OAT West)
Cleaned up a bit
Gave it a pat on the steering wheel and told it everything was going to be OK
Still to do
Load all the crap into the car
Check the oil
Check the tires
Organize all the wires
Figure out why the FM transmitter is being weird
Pray to whatever god(s) will listen
*I use an old phone loaded with Backcountry Navigator as my “off-road” GPS. I would use my current phone but (A) nice to not have to drain the battery doing too many things and (B) the GPS doesn’t work
Did you paint yourself a word picture?
Ok...
Doggos as promised

This dog knows what’s up.

He is the weirdest dog I have ever owned.

But more importantly, he’s fluffy.

You have petted both the dog and the truck. Nothing can go wrong with your trip now
Be sure to report back and let us know how it went. Good luck!
