    Lowest profile cross bars for truck caps like RSI etc.,

    I plan to get a truck and get a topper like RSI smartcap. On top of it will be a RTT. However, most solutions I see for mounting involve adding 5-6" + RTT which makes the vehicle too high, leading to problems clearing 86-90" garages which are common. I wonder what sort of ultra low profile...

    Chasing the night

    For me, overlanding was getting close to something I really love. the night skies. That's what drove me to invest in 4x4 vehicles to go far far away, away from the lights, in search of the stars And as the light creeps everywhere, you have to go further and further away to find the true beauty...
