What have you guys found helpful while off the road? I'm trying to put together a pack I can take with me and keep it all together so I have everything I need. Things like straps, portable air compressor, multi tool stuff like that. Anything is helpful

Oh yeah lol and I'd have a kj with a ton of problems if I didn't say "well it's newer so it's gonna get better gas mileage" lol gas mileage? What gas mileage?? Well a couple friends of mine go off road and they usually go to stag hill and if you know that big black building with the red s on it right off rt 17 on the border of ny and nj my buddy let me in on a spot over there with some mud. Not exactly sure where though since I'm yet to go of course

I think it depends on where you plan to go out wheelin. Down here in Florida, you need a good tow strap, water, a buddy to pull you or a winch or a come along. I find the buddy system works best and provides the most fun. The last two trips we have cleared trees from the trails, so a chainsaw is a good idea. We had a hatchet the first time and that was not fun. uhmm change of clothes including shoes. Never know how deep the water is and your bound to get wet eventually. I think everything else you will figure out is based on personal needs. Each trip seems to be different and preparation is helpful, but I find ingenuity is better. Being able to figure out how to do what you want with what you have is most of the fun me thinks.
