Our new rig is a 2020 Prospector with a Scout camper. Absolutely love the set up for longer trips but miss our previous rig that was a 2014 GMC Sierra 1500 with a canopy camper set up.

I like your newer setup!
However, as the current owner of a 2014 GMC Sierra with canopy camper, i have to ask: what was it that caused you to part with it? Seems like a nice truck. I know mine is.

Honestly we only upgraded because we are toying around with the idea of living out of a truck bed camper for a year and traveling. I loved the Sierra set up as well and it was definitely tough to let it go. I was thinking of going with a Sierra 2500 but then found the Prospector package and just loved the look of it and really appreciated AEV's attention to detail and quality of build.

Are you putting the overland hound to work pulling the truck?

Yeah, I love my 2014 Sierra as well. I have also thought about going with a 2500, since they even handle slide-ins like your Scout much easier.
What's the lift and tires/size of that Sierra?

...and the front chinstrap removed...
I'm following the same template. I leveled the front with Bilstein 5100's, removed the air dam under the front bumper, and am looking to replace my 265/65r18's with 33 inchers on 17 inch, 7 spoke rims.
Moar lights.
need to paint the top rings black to match.

On what exactly are you mounting those lights at the base of the windshield/back of the hood corners?

Dude, thank you so much! They make brackets for the 07-14 GM 1500 also. The first I’ve found.
