I've been figuring out how I want my draws and rear canopy setup. This is what I've got at the moment. It works for me, just not as nice a setup as it could be.

Wow...23 pages of awesomeness! I have so many ideas from seeing all of the different options people have come up with. Need to get started on my own.

Here is a home built drawer system for our Frontier.

Nothing too fancy! Going to be modifying my current drawer system for a bit more table space, but for now this works! Still trying to figure it all out.

Mine’s essentially a tub that contains all the cookware and a bin with dry goods. Allows me to use pavilions when it’s raining, such as earlier this week.

My wife actually created our kitchen set up, she is brilliant in its operation.
I have many videos which describes its usage: my channel

Nice job you put some good thought into it. I just love it when people create their own stuff. Hopefully you’ve been out giving it a good shake down.

Picture this. Jetboil Basecamp on a picnic table or my camp chef kitchen table. A few Jetboils around for coffee.
Done.
Done.

Love this vehicle. I just wish they were built with a full and separate frame instead of the crappy unibody design that kept me from buying one.

Mine above is a almost fully loaded 1989 XJ Limited (most were). In 1990 I bought a new XJ Laredo which was similarly optioned and had a roof console which my Limited doesn't (no big deal). I think the only thing it didn't have was leather seats and a power antenna and that was fine with me. In my opinion the Limiteds looked a bit overdone with the gold trim, wheels, and badges, colour matched bumpers and grill, etc. Mine was the last year of the RENIX XJ's ('87 to '90). I had no idea at the time and that a big change was coming and I wouldn't have waited any way.
I looked at the FSJ Wagoneers which did have a frame of course. I forget the price difference, probably because it was out of my range! I wanted a 2 dr. at the time and jokingly said a Comanche would be nice. With a family on the way the 4 dr. made sense and that's what I got. Years later I now have a 2 dr. and a Comanche. There's a real nice and original '89 XJ Brentwood (a 4 dr. woody) for sale locally but I'd probably get kicked out of the house, and my garage, if I came home with it.

Anyone have an experience with the Blackstone? Lately, in the last few months, all of a sudden, various people in the groups we overland with have been pulling them out at camp. Everyone that I know, loves them. I was afraid of the weight, but then I got to thinking, it would eliminate my Coleman and cast iron cookware.......... On the fence, it is big and bulky. I like stuff that I can stow in my Plano cases.........
