Ouch! No insurance?

I keep at least 30 ft distance between my screen tent + kitchen and my sleeping tent. I lock up any food stuff and the garbage in a large bin I have built and bolted to my trailer. We do not keep any perfumed products or any food in our sleeping tent. This includes toothpaste and literally...

I was in the same boat originally.... and got in touch with a local 4x4 group and learned LOTS by getting out and wheeling with them. One thing I did learn as well though.... was that even though someone has been wheeling for a while doesn't mean that they are a good spotter. The spotter needs...

I would contact ARB and see if they will fix it / warranty it. I dealt with ARBUSA a while back for an issue with my compressor and they were very good to deal with.

Drive safe! Good luck! :sunglasses::sunglasses::sunglasses:

The tent... is it this one? The Grand Raid? http://www.jamesbaroudusa.com/grand-raid.html What particular extras did you get to increase the price from the base 19 to 24k? The wheels... do you happen to know the bolt pattern? Is it the same as your tacoma? I did a little digging...

We use the Cabela's Ultimate sleeping pads.... the 2 velcro together. This link isn't it, but you get the idea...

That might definitely be quicker than signing up for and having them ship you one.... it took a number of weeks to get mine. http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/voyage-travel/admission.aspx

Looks good to me. Hell, I'm just happy to have Canadian members and talk.... whichever subforums that are created will be used and we'll all get used to whichever area we need/want to use. :sunglasses::sunglasses::sunglasses:

Good points above... I apologize to my northern neighbours and have modified my post accordingly. In my opinion Manitoba and NW Ontario are close with regards to travel.... it's a big distance from the western edge of Ontario to the east. In Manitoba the biggest city (Winnipeg) is closest to...

I carry a few things up top to camp.... folding chairs, cheap folding table, etc. I try to carry most things on my quad trailer. At camp it looks like this..... solar panels and cell phone booster.

I would take the above and tweak it a bit.... Atlantic Provinces Northern Territories SE Ontario + Quebec Manitoba + NW Ontario Saskatchewan Alberta British Columbia :sunglasses::sunglasses::sunglasses:

I rotated my axle on my quad trailer to flip the leafs... worked ok until I bent the axle. Evidently there is a natural curvature to an axle with the curve going up a little bit. When I flipped it around the curve was down and thus weakened the axle in doing so. Granted, I had the trailer...
