Sting Grey! I waited until the color was available to place my order.

Great idea. We did a similar thing a couple of months ago. My 31 yo son asked us to take him and his wife to Colorado a couple of months ago. We installed a Roofnest tent on top of our Overland trailer and towed it behind our truck camper. Worked great!

Well I can finally join the club! Just picked up my dream truck a couple of weeks ago...

If you want to see some very interesting off-road recovery videos look up Matt’s Towing on YouTube. It’s amazing what this guy does. After watching his videos I ended up buying one of the kinetic recovery straps he uses.. Here’s one example..

I’m replying to this thread because it was mentioned in another one... While the above comments are interesting I have yet to ever hear of anyone bending their pin...I have used this method on several occasions attaching a 3” strap that had 2” loops sewn into each end without any pin deformity...

At your price point I’m assuming that you don’t have the time or money to drop several thousand fixing things but would rather go out...

We used the front runner racks on our recent trip across the desert of Namibia. Each vehicle carried 7, 20 liter fuel cans across some of the roughest terrain i’ve ever driven on and no one had any issues. Highly reccomend.

The other thing that I have started taking into account is that not everyone needs to carry a high lift jack or maxtrax’s or even camp stoves etc. If you are going on a true expedition then you need to think like you’re backpacking (one person carries the tent, another the stove etc.) This...
