I’m looking for a site that reviews camping/hiking/outdoor equipment..?

March 10th, 2010

……by the people who use it. I dont want another “outfitter” promoting their products, but a site where people who have actually used the products comment on their durability effctiveness and even the trails and areas they have explored.
Any one know of a site like this?
No thanx to dragonflyboy for stating the obvious (and not at all helpful) google search option, which I’ve already spent hours looking on for this very thing.

Thanx to NikkiC, but i used to subscribe to Backpacker and even have last years gearguide. No their site doesn’t have their most recent gear reviews, just older ones. Although their site does have some great videos of people testing gear, I still find any company that could possibly receive monitary funding for backing certain products, a bit dubious.

Do you know of any good review sites for exercise equipment?

I’m in the market for a good treadmill under 1000. Or do you have any good recommendations? I don’t need anything with bells and whistles, just a good sturdy treadmill that can withstand three people using it often. Thanks.

2011 Ford F-Series Super Duty: First Drive [Jalopnik Reviews]
# jalopnikreviews The 2011 Ford Super Duty ’s a gamble. Ford’s newest heavy hauler abandons the well-known Navistar-supplied Powerstroke diesel for a brand new all-Ford designed powerplant supposedly delivering monstrous power, squeaky-clean emissions, better fuel economy and the same price. Seems suspiciously impressive. More »

Does anyone have any opinions on exercise equipment primarily used for your abs?

March 9th, 2010

My wife and I do 8 minute Abs every other day, but the movements hurt my back and neck. We were thinking of purchasing something like the Ab Lounger, but the reviews seem to indicate that it isn’t very effective. Does anyone have any suggestions or opinions on equipment they’ve used or currently use?

What brands are best? Can I get a kit or combo of power tools for a good price? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!!
