    Truck canopy

    I'm looking for a canopy for a 6 1/2 truck bed for a heavy duty truck. One that would keep everything inside dry but can also support the weight of a rooftop tent. Not having much luck with this. It's also going on a daily driver so i'd like something that doesn't look too silly. Though...

    Patriot X1 - largest dimension fridge that would fit?

    For the patriot X1, does anyone have the dimensions for the fridge tray? LXWXH. Trying to figure out the largest size fridge that would fit. I do not yet have the trailer but I want to get the fridge ordered to be able to use in the meantime.

    WTB: Patriot X1 or Turtleback Expedition for Jeep JKU.... Change my mind???

    Looks like turtleback may have gone out of business. Their website now just says they are no longer manufacturing trailers this year due to unforseen circumstances. And they provide an email address for those in need of warranty repair.

    How would you start over?

    Something i'm debating now. I have a stock ram 2500 with the diesel. Not a fan of the weight of that diesel offroad so i'm considering a change. As well as selling our travel trailer so I won't have to have that truck. But I do like the space. I'm considering a Ram power wagon with the 6.4 gas...

    Overlanding with Dogs

    I'd add the annex to the RTT and the dog can sleep there. We don't allow dogs in our bed. Or just a ground tent. But we do have their beds we bring.

    rig weight, how do you pack?

    I have a Ram 2500 so I don't have to worry about the weight. But with our kids and dogs I need the cab space and room for all that gear for us all. If it were just the wife and I we would be fine with a smaller rig and a lot less gear. But it's really nice not having to worry about space or...

    12v fridge recommendations

    I was looking at the Dometic CFX3 100. Not sure if it's too big. Right now we have a travel trailer and that fridge will be loaded with food for a 3 day weekend and adult beverages and i'll also bring a coleman cooler full of non alcoholic beverages. There's 4 of us. But we're looking at...

    How do you cope when you're stuck at home?

    I can be a homebody. So staying at home doesn't really bother me. I have more video games, tv and movies then I can possibly consume. And hobbies to keep me busy as well as home and yard cleaning and maintenance. Sure we enjoy camping but i'm good at home too. We do live just at the base of a...

    Dog's & NOT Overlanding

    More gear to pack. And they can be a handful so it's less relaxing with the dogs there. If we do bring our trailer then we do bring the dogs.

    Overland Expo PNW

    My wife and I went, our first overland expo. We went friday right when they opened. I thought attendance was good, seemed like a lot of people there. But being our first one I don't know how it compares. It was well laid out and easy to get around.

    Campground Insanity

    Around here it varies. I've seen crazyiness in state parks but it's only some groups, not all. Not even most. Most of the time it's been fine. Just went camping at a campground last weekend and it was pretty peaceful and it was 100% booked but did see for the first time a class A that brought...

    What justifies the expense for a rooftop tent?

    Pros and cons to both. And in time I may own both just for more options. My plan is to get a shiftpod for a ground tent as they're really nice and quick and easy setup. I do have more traditional coleman tents. And a travel trailer. We do all sorts of camping.
