...shade and a place to get out of the rain if needed, it was. A fold out canopy would be easier but more hassle mounting it with an adjustable tent height.
Camping a Hannigan Meadows Az 9100'
Rain was rolling in so I stashed the ebike out of the weather and cooked dinner on the tailgate...
I was in a rally earlier this year in Baja and a couple of the participants had flown in from Lithuania and rented a Tacoma pop-up tent rig (orange truck on right) from Topoterra in the San Diego area. They just slapped some decals on the truck and bombed through the desert along with the rest...
Awesome! I dream of doing this with my daughter when she gets just a little older. For now mom limits us to a tent in the backyard lol! Keep making those memories!!
How is the older F 250 incapable of handling the 1330 (lbs?) of payload, exactly? If it can handle over 3100 lbs, 1300 should be a cake walk. I'm I reading this wrong?
So, your old 250 CAN handle it. Just. Your newer 150 has special features that allow it to do so.
If the trailer is 1300lbs...
Newer trucks are made with stronger steel. Sure. Your newer F150 could very well have a higher capacity than the older 250.
It will tell you in the door frame or as you said. You looked it up by VIN.
Not to mention hp coming into play. He e l l, my 06 Honda Civic Si 4 cylinder had ALMOST as...
I just looked at that camper and it is very nice. Little expensive for my taste but for a traveling family it looks awesome. The specs are similar to what we have posted here. Heavy half ton and up, short/long bed, and only 1331 lbs starting weight! Figure 2-2500 lbs fully loaded with no rally...
Saw a Scout Kenai in the back of a Ford 6.5 ft bed today. We know we want that camper now. Add in the roof top tent for Colin to sleep with access from inside the camper makes it the clear winner for us. I know its fine for weight with everything in it and us.
...more. But I am comparing the 2005 F250 to my 150 with max payload 4x4.
I used my vin and it's 3270 payload. So, the scout Kenai with pop top tent is 1330. toss in our gear in and we are still well below the max. Pop in airbags to level the load and just go. Yes I would love to be able to...
My favorite time to camp is when its cool or cold. Anything above 68° and im not camping.
Coldest ive camped in a tent was -14°f in Utah, that was pretty cold! Fingers and toes took an hour to warm up.
What about you?
I am located in San Tan Valley, AZ.
Going with different route so need to sell my barely used RTT.
Tuff Stuff Alpha Roof Top Tent Hard shell 3-4 person tent. Only been used less than 10 nights. In great shape. Have 100W flexible solar panel installed on top. We can meet somewhere or come pick it...
...it! Haha but in all seriousness, I’ve got a 2020 GX460 and can fit all three of my kids (8,5,3) in the back seat fairly comfortably without needing the third row. I don’t bother with a RTT which would be a little cramped. I have a rooftop carrier to store our extra gear like our 6 person MSR...
more information would help. Is it just for the weekend camping trips? long trips? roof top tent on a bed rack or more for a cab over camper? I would keep the winch lol
I bought one of these and returned it. Looks great on paper but the fan barely blows the cold air out. The vent adapter connects to a huge six inch duct hose that is would be difficult to adapt to a trailer . I returned it after an afternoon of testing.
The Gazelle T4 tent has plenty of room, so fitting two cots and a dog should be manageable. For cots, I’d recommend Coleman ComfortSmart or KingCamp Extra Wide for comfort and stability. Both are low-profile and provide a good mix of support without taking up too much space. The T4's height...
IKamper Skycamp 3.0 is the best roof top tent on the market. This has only been used four times and is in excellent condition. The shell is the Rocky Black version and also has the upgraded comfort mattress. I paid roughly 6k new for both items. Takes a few mins to set up and close. Very...
