Used mine a couple times. It's a million times better than regular tent camping. And cheaper than a camper. Couple things i noticed were a significant change in center of gravity and how the vehicle feels when off camber. And wind resistance on the highway. Setup and takedown isn't bad...
Got mine a week before the panic virus shut everything down. Only been out once, but it did everything I asked it to. Only issue is that garbage Coleman "refrigerator" Took it out and used it as a cooler (only thing it's worth). Put a generator in its place.
I hope this is the right place for this. I'm trying to figure out how to mount a propane bottle (5 or 10 lb.) to my roof rack, but I want it on the rear passenger side not the top. Any suggestions?
Look into an Opus Off Road. It seems to be the perfect fit for your scenario and future when the littles become bigs. They even have an AIR option that damn near sets up by itself. Be aware...they are not cheap!!!
I ended up leaving the crossbars mounted to the tent. I remove the crossbars to take it off. So far, it's WAAAYYY easier. Better accessibility. Gonna try the 2x4s next go around.
Thanks!!!!
It's a Smittybilt Overlander XL on a Kargomaster Safari rack. I had to buy additional cross bars for the rack. It was just a pain to get it lifted to the top and secured. Very little room for tightening the brackets to the rack.
Any ideas about getting a RTT mounted? Mine is a complete pain in the butt. Took three of us forever to get it on top of my Jeep. Youtube makes everything look way easier than it actually is. I have thought about and really looked at a mobile hoist. Looks like it could be rigged to make...
Hi all. I have a 2017 JKU. Modified a little for a RTT. It's still a work in progress. Took it to Colorado last year for some trails and camping. HOOKED!!!!
FYI ... Fullerton flooded big time. They only allow vehicles on the trails a few times a year. May 24-26 is the first weekend...
I just found this on Craigslist. Not an attempt to sell. It's definitely not mine. But HOLY COW!!!!

In that price range with those trades you should be able to get into a Tacoma or Four Runner. Not new, but lightly used. And most people never use them to their potential, so some aspects could be like-new. I drove a Four Runner TRD Off Road last year for a trip. It was an awesome vehicle.
I was on a fire dept. for almost 10 years. Vehicle fires SUCK!!!! The biggest warning we had was to stay off line from the bumpers. They have gas in them for impact absorption. When they go, it's like a rocket. Saw one video of an instant amputation. They are no joke.
I stopped at one on...
Interesting. I've been with State Farm for over 20 years. My Jeep, which is my primary overlander, has full coverage. Xterra is Liability and Comp only. Anything attached to either vehicle is covered by Comp. Roof rack, gas cans, winch, etc. Full coverage covers any damage caused by me...
