A question to all my Honda Pioneer family. I am now the proud owner of a Honda Pioneer 1000-5 and not sure if this is a post already, but....I'm wondering what each of you carry in your dry box, or survival gear pack on your Pioneer? I carry the basics: extra rain gear, food, water, fire starter, flashlights, GPS, map and compass, space blankets, tire repair kit, air compressor, first aid kit, waterproof matches. Would like to hear some of your suggestions.

Yea there are a few threads, really it is trip type specific in a way. There are several of us that go "overlanding" and camp out of our Hondas a couple times a year and what you will carry on that is going to be different than say a day ride or a weekend trip where you have a central camp.

@joeymt33 has a good list posted on here somewhere, @Cuoutdoors had a thread he started where we were trying to streamline just the size of the tools needed to make trail side repairs (common)

Overlanding thread
I would be interested in a thread started about this. Mainly pics of what you have and where, how many days, how much gas, etc. Logistics of this for several days could get tricky. We’re trying to plan a trip and decide if we base camp or overland. A thread or guidance to location of information I’m looking for. Thanks!

P1000 - Real Tools Required this should link to a real tools needed thread as far as gas on our 3 day trip I'll bring 5 gallons of extra gas but we also have access to gas stations, bring water and some sort of pumping case you overheat. where are you thinking of overlanding

Southern/Central Utah. San Rafael Swell. Or depending on trip date and snow pack Arapeen Trail system or Paiute Trail system. Still hammering out the details. There’s a few of us... We all know how that is trying to plan a trip... Gas would be accessible but not convenient. So it would be a “true” overlander trip or setup a base camp. I like both ideas..

if it was me and this was our first trip as such I would base camp carrying water and fuel food and tools in that kind of terrain would add a bunch of weight. after a trip of base camping then you should know what you need and what you like to carry with you

This, or you guys could do a couple overnighters “shakedown” runs, I have learned a lot of each of the trips I have gone on. The 2nd trip was treated with a backpacking mindset and really started considering weight. One challenge on the first and still for some part on the 2nd trip is redundancy of equipment - we all love to use our own equipment so trying to divide up who takes what among the group worked ok but I bet we all still could have cut some items out.
