Currently using renogy 120w. Considering a 200w (bifacial 100w backside) fivstaSola panel soon. The 120w is ok with keeping my 1024wh battery topped off, but noticed on really hot days, the fridge (aplicool taw35) really draws a lot of juice.

Saw this today, could be an option.

I have rotopax and water mounted on rear windows. They can easily be removed if not in use for daily driving. Very sturdy and no rattles. If i wanted to, i could do the other side, and carry four 3 gallon rotopax. 12 gallons total. Could also put two 3 gallons on the spare tire as well...

I want molle panels for my rear seats upper area, since I never have passengers. But I want to be able to install them without removing my hardtop. No one to help me with top removal.

I have a renogy 120w panel on my roofrack, it connects to my ecoflow delta 2 directly. When camping, I also bring a 220w folding solar panel, just in case. I prefer my power system not tied to my vehicles power system at all.

I prefer my power being portable. I use an ecoflow delta 2 (1024wh) to power my alpicool 35 or 55 quart dual fridge. None of it is hard mounted. They are just strapped in place. When I go camping, I can bring the fridge and battery out, closer to my table or wherever needed. My 120w solar...

If it isn't too hot tomorrow, i want to install my fender chop light kit, and amber chase and side lights.

Ordered tie rods and drag link. The shop installing them, will be inspecting my rotor shield, he thinks it may be bent and causing a thin tick sound when I turn the wheel.

That's pretty neat, not too expensive. I had 2 open heart surgeries and couldnt climb in my jeep. Got a folding foot stool to get me in. Wife had to set it up and put it away each time haha! I imagine what it looks like to people who didnt know what was going on. I wonder if a mini...

Went wheeling my buddy and his wife, we did 2 badge of honor trails. Gold Mountain and John Bull. Their 4runner on 37s and portals struggled a little bit, needing to be recovered 3 times, but not bad for a Toyota.

I agree. But ive been seeing more campers during winter than before.

My favorite time to camp is when its cool or cold. Anything above 68° and im not camping. Coldest ive camped in a tent was -14°f in Utah, that was pretty cold! Fingers and toes took an hour to warm up. What about you?

Luckily no. But I used to have a heart pump, and that's the reason I got my ecoflow battery. I was running off batteries for the pump, and needed a way to charge them in case. Wife was planning to get us starlink, so that we could call emergency if needed. I do bring a medkit and trauma kit...

True. I chose my wheels because of the weight, also watched a lot of reviews. I would of kept stock wheels (wish I did for winter tires), but they are too narrow for larger tires. Im running a 38x13.5x17 tire and needed wheels to accommodate the width. Looks was last on the list.

Furthest south ive been is Mexico, and that was just to party. So I cant help with that. My wife is from Peru, and her father had a Hilux for a long time, and there are massive open land to wheel and overland there. You can drive right up to many ancient wonders, no one and no infrastructure...
