We're leaning towards ordering a Pando 2.0, it would just be nice to see one in person before placing an order and committing to it. Unfortunately, WA is a bit far from IL. I have found the OGT owner's group on Facebook, that's been a decent resource for getting info and asking questions...

As mentioned, the second zone can be used as a freezer but it doesn't have to be. We haven't used it as a freezer YET but it's nice to have the option. The bigger benefit is that you can use one zone and reduce energy consumption by only cooling the zone you're using if you don't have much...

Probably not much difference in price, but I'm using the Rhino Rack RLT600 legs with the Yakima adapter kit and their crossbars on my ARE topper with the Yakima tracks.

Just wanted to follow up here, after quite a bit of research, reading, finding an owner's group and asking various questions, watching YouTube, etc we're pretty much set on an OGT Pando 2.0. We even like the same wrap the most. We haven't started down the road to order one yet as we're not...

I had the same problem with the plugs not being snug, easy fix with duck tape strips wrapped around the plug on each side of the contacts (wrapped near the tip and the base). Add a wrap until it's snug but not so tight you have to force it. Haven't had a problem since and we've been down some...

We have an ICECO VL60 dual-zone and during a recent trip to Montana (last month) we often saw temps in the 90s. The fridge was in the back of the truck, which has a topper, and we only ran the larger zone in the fridge. Temp set to 32-34F, running in MAX mode (not Eco), and when running it...

For sure, I wasn't really taking it that way and was just expanding on our thought process and where we're coming from. I would caution anyone from jumping into anything like this and just winging it, especially if they're thinking about taking off for weeks or months. Personally, I love the...

Would like to hear how those of you that bought an OGT trailer, either the Pando 2.0 or Expedition 2.0, are liking them after having them for a while. Any issues or regrets? We're seriously thinking about ordering a Pando 2.0 at some point soon so hearing some long term thoughts would be great...

So, we already have all the gear we'd need only currently it all gets loaded in/on the truck which is then putting the truck pretty much right at RAWR and FAWR. We have no plans to take a generator, we would be using solar. At most we might pick up a small inverter generator in case of...

These look pretty nice, too. The kitchen is really well thought out and the overall design of the trailer is very cohesive. Tons of storage, too. One concern I have is that some if these companies seem to be very new and I really don't want to end up with something from a company that disappears...

OH! Forgot to mention one other big reason why a trailer makes the most sense for us. With the trailer we're not limited to always taking my truck. For most trips it does make the most sense, but my wife has a 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit with the EcoDiesel. I'd want to put some A/Ts on...

Just got around to putting mine on!

Been talking with my wife about this a bit and been looking at trailer options. The self-contained pop-up campers are nice, but they're also about the same price as a decent off-road trailer. Not towing a trailer is an advantage, but there are numerous cons/compromises with these with mid-size...

Maybe if I win the lottery. Black Series trailers are way out of the ballpark of what we're willing to spend.

Yeah, an ambulance conversion can definitely be a great choice for the money. The amount of storage compartments is great, the build quality and safety of the box is a lot higher than a recreational box, and 4WD conversions aren't a huge deal. I think that would be the ideal goal but it's also...

Yeah, we both like the concept of the FWC Project M, cheaper than the self-contained units but still provides the easy setup and platform bed. The flip side is that it's still a bit pricey considering it comes with nothing else. Similar deal with the Alu-Cab, etc. Renting isn't a bad idea...

I'm quite mechanical and handy so I'm not opposed to building my own. I've just never taken on a project like that before so it's a little daunting to think about, but maybe that's the best option for the money. I'm sure I'd have to invest in some more tools, like a welder, and become...

It was a very strange experience indeed, I'm hoping it was a fluke because I did find an issue with the 12v power I was using to keep it charged, however I would hope that an intermittent power issue wouldn't be enough to cause the failure. The first 1000 didn't fail to the point where it...

On the subject of trailers and such, we've been there and done that. A few times. 31-foot bunkhouse bumper-pull trailer with slide out towed by both a Nissan Titan initially before upgrading to a Ram 3500 with the Cummins. 36-foot diesel pusher RV Flagstaff off-road pop-up trailer with a deck...
