Hey y'all. I'm new to the forum. Here for my own enjoyment and learning and also to meet some new people and hopefully have some meaningful discussions. I own a 2017 Subaru outback that I use as my adventure vehicle. I also proudly work at Front Runner Outfitters and would be happy to share some insight and answer questions should anyone have any!

Hope everyone is having fun out there!

Looks great! I have a buddy that used to have one and he wanted to put on those exact wheels. Love how the light bar is flush with the roof rack.

@aggie6801 Thanks! So far I love the Black Rhinos -super light which helps compensate for my larger tires a bit. Only downside is they are a bit tough to clean fully but not a huge concern because my car is dusty a lot. Capable vehicle for what it is - always seems to surprise me to this day! And yes thanks to my roof rack I was able to essentially flush mount the lightbar. Sits up nice and high too.

I've been seeing more and more offroad trailers lately and have been amazed at how they perform. @AggieOE how are you liking yours? Which manufacturer did you go with?

Welcome, Andrew! Maybe you can work on providing the OB members a FrontRunner discount? :smile:

Ours started off life as a used Lowes 4x6 utility trailer. You can see the build thread HERE.
It's a great little trailer that I've update to better fit the demand of rough terrain travel. We like the RTT but when it was on the car roof, tear-down every day just to drive around got super old. So the trailer has already been nice to have a base camp.

@4x3Lander Dude that thing is awesome for a DIY rack! I work at Front Runner and have seen some pretty crazy contraptions people can come up with and this is easily amongst the most clean and secure looking. Nice job! The fairing looks perfect on it!

Looks like it does what you need and that's what matters.

Also, you got me drooling over that rig man. One of my dream vehicles for sure and I like your setup.
