Welcome viewers! The online home of Michael, Ellie and Christina... known as the Love Tribe.
Through this channel we will document our Overland Build on our 2005 Chevy Astro AWD van we affectionately call the Sin Wagon. (Affectionately and appropriately named after the Dixie Chicks song)
We will also document our journeys getting out and exploring the backroads and forests of the beautiful Pacific Northwest and beyond. Through our channel you will get to meet some amazing people, and learn more about the Overland Lifestyle... and maybe catch the bug yourself!
If you're an Astro Van owner living in the Pacific Northwestern United States and are doing your own Overland/Offroad build, we want to connect with you and add you to our club of Astro/Safari owners! You may meet a few of them on this channel...

Shakedown on the ORBDR
When we left you last, we had just gotten the Fuel Pump fixed, but were dropping the van off for some significant upgrades! In this episode we talk a little about those upgrades, and then take the van on a shakedown trip back toward home by way of the ORBDR. We take a bit more time this time and reveal yet another surprise upgrade to our Overland channel… you’ll have to tune in to find out!

Exploring Green Ridge
Переглядів 2032 місяці тому
With the van finally repaired we were eager to get into the woods for a trip that was as much trail therapy as it was a test of the work we had done. This time around we decided to explore some of the Deschutes National Forest by exploring the beautiful and scenic Evergreen Ridge. We were treated to some challenges but were rewarded with one of the most scenic campsites we’d ever found. Be sure...
Painted Hills - The Hard Way

A late spring three day weekend calls for an adventure. Most people take the paved roads to Painted Hills but we found a much more interesting road less travelled route… we’re off to explore to see if we can make it!

2024 Kickoff - A New Year and a New Build
Переглядів 6235 місяців тому
2024 kicks off a very expensive year of another brand new build! Our last build was a total fail so we stripped it all out down to the bare metal… and completely redesigned and rebuilt the interior build out to be a more functional space for us to live in and out of on our Overland adventures. Our anniversary trip would serve as a launch for the 2024 Season and would be our first real test of t...

Oregon Eclipse Adventure Weekend

In this episode, we team up with some of our friends from the PNW Jeepers and 4x4 Club for a trip to the high desert in Christmas Valley, OR to view the eclipse. Would we be able to actually see it? Or would Mother Nature have other plans for us? After the eclipse time had passed, still having the whole weekend ahead of us we decided to hit the road and go explore section 4 of the Oregon BDR.

The Best Laid Plans - An Unintended Overland Adventure

In Mid-August we headed out to the Oregon Coast for a birthday weekend trip for Christina. We had plans to do some dispersed camping but the site we had picked on Gaia ended up being in accessible due to a closed road. All other dispersed options seemed to be closed as well. This video documents some of the struggles we encountered, and how we were able to salvage a fun weekend of unintended ov...

Переглядів 329Рік тому
The Oregon BDR Stage 4 still had a large portion of route that was closed due to downed trees, washouts and snow when we were making the trip in August. This meant that we had to take the bypass which is all paved highway. Sadly this means we didn’t get a lot of video coverage… not really enough to even make an episode but we wanted to maintain continuity on this ORBDR excursion… so this episod...

Canyon Creek Trail III - Success At Last!!!

For months we’ve been chasing this idea of an overland loop in our backyard that we are calling the Canyon Creek Loop trail. Basically finding roads on a forest service map to create an approximately 50 mile loop for either a day trip, or a fun overnight in the woods. We’ve made several attempts only be turned away by snow, downed trees, landslides, washouts or equipment failure. After doing ou...
Astro XHD Leaf Spring Upgrade
Переглядів 4,9 тис.Рік тому
Sadly, replacing bump stops alone did not resolve the issue with springs over-articulating. The stock springs on my 2005 Chevy Astro are just not up to the task of offroad travel while fully loaded. So it was time for a suspension upgrade. I labored over the decision for a couple of weeks on which springs to go with… in this video I explain a bit why I went the way I did, and walk through the i...
