I like LOD. My new Jeep got LOD front and rear. It seems like good quality stuff and I love that it’s made in our state!That checks the boxes. It's definitely in the running. Thanks.
ETA: One of the boxes was US made. In Indiana? Even better.

I used to live and work at the Air Force Base just outside of Rapid City. I love that place and hiked Harney Peak several times. Make sure to drive the needles highway and 16A for great views and tunnels. Try to get up to spearfish canyon and eat at the latchstring inn for great buffalo stew!Yea you’re right.

Apparently my reading comprehension went downhill on the climb as well. You said we needed oxygen.
Wow that needles highway looks like a lot of fun. Have to fold the mirrors in on the phat Tundra to get through a couple of them.I used to live and work at the Air Force Base just outside of Rapid City.

Anybody ever thought about using an ATV for overland type adventures? Been watching some youtube videos of dudes camping off their ATVs... many out of custom homemade trailers. Going by thge DNR map on Indiana, I could (COULD mind you) feasibly take a circular tour of the state on county roads with my quad bike, and a trailer full of supplies.

The Prairie 400 with the truck box trailer (and my service dog) is what I'm tinkering with at the moment.

Love to hear if anybody knows of long ( 2 or 3 day) and remote ATV trails around the midwest area.
Also thinking maybe parts of the KAT or TWAT.
Haven't really gone anywhere with it yet but the Badlands.
Yeah. Maybe 35 years ago. I don’t remember enough about it to be of any use though.Anybody been to Uwharrie in NC?
That looks awesome.
I just ordered the black ops front bumper from them, and destroyer rock rails. At some point I’m planning on getting the destroyer rear bumper with spare tire carrier.
I’d second the UP. Indiana backroads and trying to find campsites just don’t sound that much fun, but that’s just me.Anybody ever thought about using an ATV for overland type adventures?

Plenty of "unlicensed, obnoxious, dangerous, noisy traffic" on the road anyway, even without ATVs, so you can't blame that on them.No offense to you sir, but I hope the folks using the roads on your ATV's have the decency to share the road? Unlike the PIA bicyclists, content to watch dozens of cars backed up behind them.
I have a buddy in rural Ripley county. Said the worst thing they ever did was allow ATV's on the road there. Also said, once allowed there is no going back. Complaining about the unlicensed, obnoxious, dangerous, noisy traffic falls on deaf ears with law enforcement.

Sharing the road? It's only allowed on "county roads", so it's not like there's traffic jams going on.
Most ATVs can do 40 or 50 mph easily, so it's not as slow as a bicycle, but still easy enough to pass.
If there putting around real slow... that's most likely the rider... not the ATV. Nothing you can really do about idiots.
In the other counties, or on other roads, they are required to ride on the "right of way". (grass besides the road) and only cross at a 90 degree angle.
As far as falling "on deaf ears with law enforcement" goes... traffic violations (if there is one, and in many counties an ATV on county roads IS legal) is only an infraction, and therefore way down the priority list compared to other crimes.
Farm tractors/equipment?Like I said...
All wheeled vehicles operating on our roadways should be plated and insured. Simple as that.
Farm tractors/equipment?
No thank you.Only when they are on the public roadways. Thank you!
No thank you.
Big government much?
You know that the tractors and 4 wheelers and 4 wheelers that identify as tractors are all insured, right?
Why do they need to be plated?
Don’t know what the uninsured motorist percentage is but I guarantee you nearly 100% of farm equipment is insured.
There’s no way we’re taking a $50,000 or $250,000 tractor out, or letting one sit in the barnlot even, without insurance. New combines are a million bucks now.Good to know on the insurance. Thanks for the info!
It's not big government, it's just equal gov't. The rest of us need to register our vehicles to use the roadways, so should everybody. Especially those who are notorious for impeding traffic, without concern.
