So I went camping for a few days upstate. 2 people backed out, so the group went from 6 to 4, and 2 vehicles to 1. That really screwed us. We ended up ditching some things we wanted and only 1 cooler (less room for beer makes us unhappy
). She was loaded so much that the rear was actually sagging on me. 4 people, gear and camping supplies and I ended up getting 16.4mpg going upstate. Not too shabby...
I did that, but 2 off road capable vehicles and 3 people. Could have been 5 but they backed out at the last minute. Though we did not run out of beer!
We would have had a stock JKU and my KK. Basically would have had 3 per Jeep, an extra cooler, another tent and I would have been able to bring a generator to make life a little easier. They backed out like a day or 2 before hand. So instead I packed the KK to the brim, couldn't open my sky slider, and lost out on some goodies. It was worth it though. 36 pack of Bud Light, a 12 pack of some malt drink 1 of the girls drank, and 2 bottles of Patron lasted us the 2.5 days. With all the driving we ended up doing we didn't drink as much as we wanted. I don't think I ever got much of a buzz.
All I know is that we were barely prepared for it. It was one of my first times tent camping, I'm normally just a boater (I have a 20' center console and a 38' 1970 Pacemaker Sportfish with twin diesels). We learned a lot about what we need/don't need. The big shock was that it dropped down into the 50s at night...
Probably should have a solar panel on your kk!
I'm a big camper, the 2 other people weren't really that experienced. So I had to show them a thing or two about camping.
We had a bottle of vodka, I believe a 12 pack of bold rock (my beverage of choice). The two others got hammered while I only had 3. Not much of a drinker too. And they did Not enjoy their time at all the next morning. I had them promise to never drink camping with me again.
Not sure why anyone likes to drink and camp? Camping is fun and while intoxicated on any level will be dangerous.
