I have one set up. Mine's a bit of a hack... I drag an auxiliary battery with 8 feet of cable around with me, storing it all in the bed. It's just when I go off-roading though. Plus, my winch is about 20 years old and is really for a car hauler I used to have. It's not ideal but paired with...

For this build, I'm attempting to avoid unnecessary modifications to the truck so will start with 3/4" base of plywood bolted to the bed using the bed bolts. H2O tank, aux battery, fridge slide and custom drawers would all be installed/attached to the base. Will need to account for 3/8" gap...

Just started one a month or so ago... will keep it mostly for overlanding... @Overlandllama

As Matt, we'd appreciate any gouge on camping rules, as applied to a truck with RTT. From what I can tell, the parks allow camping for a fee (if not Canadian), however, mostly interested in some of the more remote areas like Trans-Lab Hwy.

Great information offered here... much appreciated as we're making the trip in August. We unfortunately will have to rush a lot of it (13-days) as we're limited for time. But, I'll take that over no trip at all! It's probably time I start a build thread... I'll be doing some of the work and...

Great responses in this thread... I ended up ordering a set of the TJs along with a fold-up shovel... hopefully will get them in time for Newfoundland Expedition. Cheers

Currently trip planning and setting up our rig for August Newfoundland Expedition

Great write up and very cool truck. Thanks for sharing.

Welcome! This is a great group. Enjoy your new rig. Walt

Mike/all, Regret that I was traveling for work during your meet up... great that you made it happen. It would be great if I could join you next weekend but I've got a dear old friend coming in to stay with us. I did just receive great news today on August Newfoundland trip... will likely post...

Very good... looking forward to the potential here. Cheers, Walt

One hell of a build you've got going on up there! Are you gearing-up for a big trip? Pretty cool. Walt

Welcome Rob! My wife and I visited Charleston about 2-years ago and I was shocked by how much it had grown in 20 years since my last visit... a bit too much. Have fun with the build. Cheers, Walt

Slick setup dziner! Did you have to find one that was load rated for the rack/RTT?

Have a co-worker that went with that Fumoto valve and absolutely loves it. My skid plate has an access panel but I still may get one... like the idea of not having to mess with the plug, torqueing, mess, etc. Cheers, Walt

This checklist is pretty solid, or at least a very good starting point... usually hanging-out on the main page but here's a link: https://www.overlandbound.com/ultimate-overland-checklist/ Cheers, Walt

Very nice blue on your truck. Welcome! Walt

Green Mountain Nat. Forest is doable from our end, depending on time-frame. It's about 6-7 hours drive. That will be a likely be stopping point for us on the way to Newfoundland... if we make that trip this summer. Will keep an eye on this thread. Maybe it'll work out. Cheers, Walt

Welcome, Ben. Slow and deliberate build is good. Lots of shiny stuff out there! Cheers, Walt

Welcome... nice rig and looks like you had a great trip last year. Overlanding is a great combo of interests and this is a great community. Cheers, Walt
