    Suggestions for carry on luggage? I don't fly often (few times per year), just looking for convenience when I do.

    Polish your shoes before you ever wear them, and that will cut down on scuffing.

    Best bag I've ever owned. I have the medium, fairly certain you could carry that size on but you definitely could with the small.

    This will help, RJF-GUMP. A good polish/shine can breathe life into your shoes, especially if you wear them often or they're not great quality. You can also apply some leather conditioner, like Bick 4 to help keep the leather moisturized. I used to wear a pair of Johnson & Murphys that were about ~$130. I'd wear them consecutive days and after a couple weeks, they began looking a little worn down, but a conditioning/polish/shine would always bring them back. Ultimately, I started getting higher quality shoes and wearing them less frequently, as well as getting a shine kit.

    don't want to shit on any of the suggestions already made, but there's absolutely no excuse for having a piece of luggage with only two wheels.

    This one is my EDC bag and it's fantastic, plus it won't break the bank

    For carry on or check I use eagle creek based on the warranty but Timbuktu has an equivalent warranty. Spending tons on luggage that you don't use often doesn't make sense. It's more likely to get stolen but is not more covered by warranty.

    The exceptions being a Pelican 1510 (heavy but bombproof and a better warranty than fabric bags that are covered for the life of the fabric not just a blanket lifetime warranty like injection molded cases). Also, if I'm traveling really light I use a goruck GR2 (small version) as I can do 3-5 days easily with that as long as I don't need dress clothes.


    Redoxx air boss is really nice but the 1000D construction makes it a little heavy for a fabric bag. Great zipper and overall setup and made in the US. Tom Bihn has the aeronaut and Tristar but I've never handled one of those.

    Probably a poor colloquialism for me to use in context of flying I agree. But having the water resistance and optional foam padding when I travel with sensitive lab equipment is very helpful whether it's by car, carry on, or checked luggage. Once you cut the foam to fit he device it's secure and some 18 year old kid can bounce it around and leave it in the rain even if they make you gate check your carry on for connecting flights. It's not for everyone, but if you have glassware and sensitive electronics it's hard to beat.

    bout to buy a new truck tomorrow. thoughts? : 2016 tacoma 2WD crew cab $30,000-$31,000-they said they could get it in that price range. I want something that will pull a boat-I might eventually get a heavier boat but for now probably an 18-20 footer. If I get anything bigger I'll need a Tundra etc. I know. But I don't think I'll be getting anything bigger any time soon. I looked at Chevy's and Ford's but in the $30,000 range you'll end up with a 2014 vehicle with like 40-60,000 miles on it. Why do that when I can get a brand new Toyota truck that's still nice and good looking for same price? 4WD is like 3k more and I have no idea why I'd need it. I can pull something just fine with 2WD.

    If you look at the right time you can buy a new quad cab 4wd silverado for right around that price, perhaps a couple gs more.

    Not having 4WD would concern me pulling a boat unless you know the ramps you are going to be using and know that they are not steep/slick. I pull my parents boat (its much larger; 5500 lbs) with my 4WD tahoe and pretty much need it on any steeper ramps.

    Love my 16 Tacmoa. It's 2WD TRD Sport. I was on the fence for the 4WD, but I opted for the TRD Sport package with upgraded stereo and push button start instead.

    Having said that, if you're talking about an 18-20ft skiff or john boat (~1000lb), then yeah, 4WD probably isnt necessarily.

    We used to pull our Sport Nautique (2700#s or so) with my friends 06 Tacoma (not 4WD) and never had an issue. Spun the tires once on an oil slick ramp but got up no problem.
