Yep, here are two lengthy discussion on this topic for your consideration: Roof top tent vs ground tent Roof Top Tent or Ground Tent?

This is pretty much how every vehicle on the road around here looks five months out of the year.

It likely depends on where folks live. Members in Florida probably keep them on. ;) Here in northern Ohio, I've taken mine off every winter. Lots of salt and brine. It only takes about ten minutes to remove, and 20 to reinstall in the spring. It also makes it possible to go through the...

Welcome! I was born in Marysville, and grew up outside of Bellefontaine west of you. My little brother just retired from the East Liberty Honda plant. There are a lot of fun driving roads west of you, but nothing gravel or off-road.

Upgraded!

Yes, the UK patch will need to be similar to the US and Australia patches, as mentioned and linked in post #3 of this thread.

Be sure to review the currently available regional patches, located here: https://store.overlandbound.com/collections/frontpage/products/overland-bound-regional-patch?variant=41002566734 The UK patch will need to follow the same general design aesthetic.

Tricky problem with location for the thermo sensor. As an amateur meteorology enthusiast, I know that weather sensor siting is one of the most overlooked part of an accurate setup. You won't want the sensor anywhere on the outside where it is exposed to direct sunlight, else it will read like a...

I'm only 5' 8", so headroom has never been a concern in any vehicle I've owned. :) Both adult daughters are 5' 1"ish, and Deb is only a couple inches taller. Besides, the rear seats are out in my 4Runner, so no one sits back there anyway.

Done!

I updated the title to reflect that this referred to Kidde brand fire extinguishers

I'm in Ohio near Cleveland. You can't get there from here...

I'm still rocking the OEM plates on my 4Runner, between I do eventually get better protection, it will be aluminum. Here in northern Ohio, rust is the enemy, so if aluminum is a feasible option for any aftermarket bits and pieces, that's my first choice. I had a 1/4" aluminum skid plate on my...

There's already a button for "Go to First Unread" that covers that. Or if you use the "New Posts button to see the latest activity, clicking the ball to the left of the thread title takes you to the first new post in the thread. I prefer the current order, which is typical of every other forum...

That's what I did with my extended Load Warrior. I mounted the lighter behind the wind deflector, and folded it down when I wanted to use the light. This kept bugs off of it, avoided breakage, and kept it out of the wind for some imagined MPG savings. Plus, it was a good conversation piece. :)

Four days shy of 18 months. (The MPG shown is *not* for the entire distance. Overall average is 17.0 MPG)

I think I noted earlier that I sold my Blue Ridge Overland Gear Attic net. It was well built, but just didn't work how I wanted it to work based on the previous attic in my Outback (which didn't fit in the 4Runner.) Today I placed an order for a Raingler full-length mesh ceiling net. It goes...

Sometimes it is within minutes, sometimes a week or more, depending on Michael and Corrie's adventures. If Corrie is in the office and not otherwise occupied, Bang! You're golden. If they are on a web-long trip, it'll be a while. @JOSX2 If you have the Member banner below your name on the web...
