There are a lot of factors to address first,
Where do you live? What kind of terrain do you spend most of your time on?
What's your budget?
How much does your vehical weigh? Do you want a specific look?
I run nitto exo grappler on my tow rig, mostly because I needed a good all terrain tire...
DAY 4
Grand Canyon time. We spent all day out on the north rim of the Grand Canyon National Park. The views were incredible. This side of the Grand Canyon is nestled in the forest. Much different than the South Rim desert scene.
DAY 3
We burned out the morning and part of the afternoon with a nice walkabout in Hovenweep NP, then we headed to Page, AZ to get the tire properly repaired. From Page, we headed to the Kaibab national forest and set up camp for the night.
DAY 2
From Buckeye we followed the Rimrocker back to the pavement and continued south. Somewhere along the trail we picked up a bolt, in the front passenger side tire. It was Sunday and already being south of Monticello we decided to plug the tire and continued on to Montezuma canyon. We...
From Grand Junction we traveled south through Gateway, Colorado to the Rim Rocker trail. We took the Rim Rocker trail to Buckeye reservoir, and set up camp for the night.
We wanted to share our adventure with you through the edges of Colorado, Utah and Arizona.
We were traveling with a 15' Ford F250 and our cargo trailer conversion named The Mini.
We started our trip out of Grand junction, Colorado.
Got the fridge and the slide in. And took it down to the north rim of the grand canyon, so far I'm pretty happy with the results,
Also added one of the rinorack 270 awnings
No awning so an old blue tarp tied off to some trees to keep the rain off our heads.
The suspension worked well,
The cabin fit two adults and three dogs comfortably
Still needs some more work and fine tuning however it did its job.
Next addition will be hot water and a awnings
A few more...
Raptor lined the exterior, and brought it home for its first trip.
I'm waiting for the winters fridge to show up, and trying to figure out which awning to run
I have not done an update in a while , so here you go.
Most of the kitchen is done, waiting on the fridge/cooler to show up. I have been focusing on the exterior . Obviously did this backwards.
Fantastic Build,
I'm building a Small one out of a 5X8 enclosed trailer, I went with a bilge blower and a filter to pressurize the cabin to prevent dust buildup on the inside and hopefully help cool it. You could make your exit Vent next to the Fridge, I know the setup I'm running was...
Similar to what your friend did, I plan on putting a awning in over the back /kitchen area, mine will pin into the barn doors to give the cook 3 sides of enclosure.
