    Roof rack awning

    I live in Colorado and travel the Southwest , the sun is strong and in some places there is no shade. Makes sense to me.

    Roof rack awning

    I am about to take delivery of my first awning and can see the argument for both sides. I generally spend more time on the driver side, as driver and letting my dog in and out of the driver side.

    DIY AWNING for $90 (ARB style awning) 9' x 9'

    I tried this set up last year and it did not work well, especially in windy conditions. Tarp was not durable either. Guess the saying still applies, "You get what you pay for".

    Best gps nav, ?

    I use both Gaia and a Garmin InReach with Earthmate. Still learning about the InReach with Earthmate in terms of user modification. InReach has the advantage of a satellite communication when you have no cell service. Love the Gaia flexibility with type of map and the ability to lay out a route...

    Overlanding to Southeastern Utah

    Thanks for the tip. This was my first trip to the area, a reconnoissance trip if you will and my second overloanding trip. I plan to go back with the next year. New to the area, so I am in an exploring mode. Next trip shortly, Northern New Mexico.

    Gazelle Tents

    I purchased a Hub 3 and used it on a recent trip to SE Utah. Tte tent is as advertised, well constructed, sets up and comes down easily. From what I can see great construction and at 5'10" I can stand upright in it. Should last a long time with care. Only downsides as metioned by others, it is...

    I was working on something in my head yesterday similar to your design and just pulled up this thread 10 minutes ago. Thanks for confirming what I was working on. I'll do something similar but run paracord from the electrical conduit attached to my 4Runner through the grommets in the tarp as a...

    Your right about the liftgate struggling when the Trasharoo starts to fill up. Right now I am using carbiners to hold the bag; I may look into a buckle system which would making the release of the Trasharoo easier.

    A panoramic view from Muley Point, Utah around 1,000 above the lower mesa. In the distance you can see the San Juan Reiver carving its way through the lover mesa . Monument Valley is in the distance.
