I just wanted to take a few moments and give you guys an update on what has been happening with the Overland Minivan. We have had our first year with the Tepui Tent with annex and we absolutely love it!!! We have managed a start on our gear storage. We could only fit 2 storage bins but that covers most of what we need. We also are members of Search and Rescue so we keep our packs in there full time as well. No fridge yet but have a cooler for now!!
We have also added a couple Ram mounts in the Cab to hold my cell phone and an Ipad Mini. We are still waiting for our Bluetooth GPS receiver for the Ipad to make it fully functional. That should be a big step up from the cell phone for Nav. We will also be adding another Ram Mount for the Baeofeng radio for coms.
I also wanted to mention that the Overland Minivan got some new shoes!!! Started to loose air in the rear tire and the fronts were going bald. When I went to the tire store I asked for some robust tires with strong sidewalls because of the amount of time we spend out in the woods either hunting, fishing or with Search and Rescue. I bought the BFGoodrich T/A KO2's!! So far I am very impressed!!
Lastly, we bought a Tmax Dual Battery system and hope to install a little later in the spring!! At some point down the road we will start looking at adding a fridge. Can't wait for that!!
That's all for now!!
Happy Trails
