Name: Mike Schmidt...aka olecowpoke
2006 Jeep Liberty CRD (2.8 diesel) used mostly as an Overlander...stock suspension and all terrain tires, but a Smittybilt 9500 winch on custom fabricated brackets to attach and reinforce the unibody. If you're gonna stay stock, you need a winch in a pinch.....but then you should have a winch off road anyway. I also have a roof rack mounted Solar Panel to charge auto battery battery, charge a Dewalt 2500 watt Inverter, back up battery jump starter, compressor and direct charges the entire line of 18volt Ryobi power tools, including a 10"chainsaw to remove trail obstacles, cut firewood (etc), a Ryobi 1/2" impact for tire changes and all other Ryobi construction tools for Samaritans Purse disaster relief (or shelter building outback), where there is no working power grid. I park my solar panel toward the sun and charge everything or run the diesel a bit if necessary. I also flip the rear split seat down and sleep on a Coleman inflatable matress. Plano o-ring sealed boxes fit the Walmart roof rack perfectly and a hitch rack on the back holds my hi-efficiency (Yeti knockoff) coolers, a propane stove/oven for great meals off-grid/off-road. My little red green jeep is capable of long term off-road/off-road living...like we all dream of. I'm proof, you can do it.
