Quick update on the cruiser!

Design constraints are very similar to Michaels; easy for partner to use, increased space and...
Sorry for the lack of action here, more happens on Instagram at @highcountrycruiser
Tyres are on! 285/75 16's keep it legal while filling out the guards. Dick cepek extreme countrys got the nod and are performing well so far.
Maintenance and handling improvements are the focus before more...

-gme uhf radio
-arb 47l fridge and slide
-foxwing 270 degree awning
-clamshell roof top tent
-recovery set and tools
So I'm not exactly starting from scratch.My

The way the floor is zipped on means that the rain can run down the walls and through the zips at the bottom.
Tent part is great. I just added an eggshell overlay to keep the better half comfortable!
