    2020 Jeep Gladiator Sport Build

    nice job on the gladiator. When I bought my Ram the dealer had several on the floor and I was really tempted, but for my use, work, hauling, towing, I decided to go with a full size truck and bed and sacrifice some of the offroad capabilities.. Great looking truck!

    2020 RAM 1500 Rebel Build

    that's a great looking truck. I've been thinking about a cap to replace my tonneau cover and your pictures have convinced me. I like the idea of having secure storage for bikes/tools/etc...

    Ram 1500... Done!

    It was a brand I had never heard of for sure, but I figured for the price, it was worth the risk. So far, I've been really happy with them....

    Ram 1500... Done!

    No, they're Tygar which I found on Amazon - pretty inexpensive. I wanted something that tucked up tight to the body and didn't hang down very low

    Ram 1500... Done!

    I'm coming from a Jeep GC that I loved and was only slightly modified (leveled, roof rack and tires). She had 160k on her and it was time for an update. I purchased the Ram Laramie 1500 before the holidays and have since added the bilsteins to level it, lineX'd the bed, added side steps so the...

    I want to see the Rams

    Recently sold my 14 Jeep GC and bought a new Ram 1500. So far have added Bilsteins for a 2" level, front tow hooks, line-x for the bed and added side steps. Tires are going on tomorrow..

    First Aid Kit - Boxes/Containers/Etc...

    I use a tackle box and it works pretty well. I need to get a larger one though as I think I started too small.

    2019 Ford Ranger

    I like the new ranger and also the jeep gladiator. The hard part for me is how expensive these "mid-sized" trucks are. If you shop hard enough, you can get an F150 for about the same price...

    Camp Security Options?

    We usually have our dog which alerts us if anything/anyone is going on. Our concern is that when we camp, we like to hike which means we're away from our camp for a good part of the day. We haven't had any issues yet, we try to be aware of who is camping in the area and if it appears sketchy...

    Finding Time

    Again, just my experience, but most of our camping stuff is in bins and on the shelf in the garage. That way if we do have a last minute opportunity to get away, it's just a matter of tossing the bins on the roof and going. After each trip, I try to make sure everything is cleaned, restocked...

    Finding Time

    I think for us, the most important thing when planning is to get it on the calendar. I've always been one to say, "yep, we need to plan that". My SO on the other hand says, "I've picked these dates, what works for you", even if it's way out in the future. The funny thing is time goes so fast now...

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Well, I bought wheel spacers about 6 months ago and have gone back and forth as to whether I should install them. Tonight I just went ahead and did it. Probably no benefit , but I have trouble leaving anything totally stock...so now I have these and once I get the front leveling kit I'll be done...

    Passengers and Dogs and Gear, Oh My!

    The GF and I have a medium sized dog and I put a roof rack on the WK2 for a lot of the stuff. It works well and allows us room in the back area in case we arrive somewhere late and want to just crash inside instead of setting up camp. I looked at the receiver baskets, but often have out mt bikes...
