I pack the Engel with meats,fresh vegetables and dairy. I mix canned beans and vegetables and fruit. This all goes first. The meals in a bag are for emergency and for people who did not pack enough for their trip.
DIY I made 2 PVC tubes 10" wide and 6ft long and put a faucet on one end with a air fitting to pump air in for pressure if gravity is not enough. The full cap is on the top. Holds a lot of water.
I drilled two 4" hole in the floor of rtt and after i found and ac unit that used 4" duct hose, used PVC fittings and pipe on the holes. To power the ac unit I use a Honda 2000 generator. Georgia and Florida get very hot.
After market support for the jeep trailchickenhawk is going to be very limited. The only negative to Toyota is that the rear axle is on drum brakes. Who still uses drum brakes.
If you are interested take a look at (trac-grabber or truckclaws). I have a set in all of my semi trucks and my 4x4 vehicles, worth there weight in gold. They also do not take up much space.
Popping a bead, not a problem, shoot it with starter fliud and then toss a burning paper towel on it and puff all fixed. Carry the spare and intertube aw and extreme backup.
I use metal topper with 2 side doors and the rear door. I have put up to 1000 pounds on top, my rtt, myself,my wife, PC water tubes 10 inches wide and 6 ft long x 2, 270 awning. This is all on top and my kitchen is inside the topper. Fiberglass will not do this.
The input I have is mesh floor or base is better for strapping down things and 4 side supports per side minimum to handle weight and flex. After that cost,design, and durability come in to play.
3rd gen and up, gen 2 had lack of power and other issues. After market support is great. I believe 1996 and newer. And if that is not enough Top Gear could not kill a Toyota hilux.
