+Geoscouts.eu Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 We have a Renault Master minibus conversion for moving from cache to cache. It's admittedly a bit big for some of the smaller country roads we go down but it allows us to go away for caching weekends and sleepover in the back. I bought it from the bus company I work for and removed most of the seats. I sectioned off a sleeping cabin and installed beds. The middle bit serves as a canteen while on the trail and doubles as a fine geocaching bureau on an evening. I guess it's a cross between a crew-cab van & campervan. We also have a smaller 7 seater van for day caching. Just wondering what you folk use? Quote Link to comment
+simpjkee Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I drive a 2011 Chevy Cruze. I haven't driven it off road yet, but it's gotten me to the caches I've seeked. If I'm planning an off road excursion, I'll swap my car for my folks Jeep or truck. Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 (edited) For most of my geocaching lifetime it was a Honda CRV. Found it to be the perfect geocaching vehicle. Though not a full blown off road vehicle, it could take me safely to trailheads down heavily rutted and eroded dirt roads with ease and get me down unplowed roads in the winter. Alas I had to sell it 3 weeks ago and am driving a Subaru Outback. Automatic trans, yuk. I've been driving for 37 years and have only owned 1 car with an automatic, and that was only for 6 months.

+BuckeyeView Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I love our Honda Element. Plastic floors -EASY cleanup after a muddy adventure! Not a Jeep but heafty enough for our terrain here in the Midwest. Quote Link to comment
+Mister Kanister Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 (edited) Mine: Bulls Crosstail Street (like that one) Great bike. I bought it not so long ago so it works fine and I hope it will last long Edited March 13, 2011 by Mister Kanister Quote Link to comment
+BCandMsKitty Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Here's another thread on the same subject that has been resurrected and is on today's screen with yours. Quote Link to comment
+StarBrand Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I've owned the same 2002 Jeep Liberty for my 9+ years of caching - up to 150,000 miles now. It is getting time to buy a new one.... Quote Link to comment
+Afterburned Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 A pushbike! Almost 10 years old, not treated well or cleaned regularly (twice so far I think), but it gets me there! Quote Link to comment
+mc3cats Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I have a 2010 Ford Edge. Its perfect for caching since it AWD and can handle snow and some off road activity (nothing too crazy, that is). It has an on board GPS with a weather radar inbedded on the GPS map which is quite handy. The on board GPS map also has a traffic patterns indicated on it as well. Pefect for determining the fastest route on an FTF run. With it sitting off the ground a bit, it makes a perfect muggle shield when making those PNG's in high muggle areas. Quote Link to comment
