Looking real good! I think i saw your rig about a week or so ago in Mansfield at the light by the movie theater.
It's awesome to see you bringing the baby camping. I was 5 weeks old when my parents first brought me camping. Not enough young people doing it anymore.

Yep! I'm in that area a lot.

It's definitely different bringing the baby along, in a good way. She was only one week old when we drove her to upstate NY for Thanksgiving. When she was just about 2 months old we took her to VT for the first time. I think it's not so difficult because we just did it from the beginning. We are always driving some place.

I attended the NORA off road school a month or so ago and brought her. She was great. I look forward to when she is a little bit older and can actually participate and understand what is going on.

Not too much more on the build lately. We got back from our three week trip to MT and moved to VT. Just starting to settle in.

Before the trip I got the fire extinguisher mount on the rack. It works great. Thankfully didn't need it.

What bed rack is that? The one you have the shovel, axe and RTT mounted to. I love it. Great build.

What happened to the Diamondback cover? Didn't care for it? I have a 2017 F150 and I have contemplated getting a cover or cap to replace the toolbox I have on my truck now. the tool box is packed to the brim and takes up precious length of my 5.5' bed.

I would really love to go full in an get a RTT, but I can't see myself driving around town with it mounted all the time (I live in a city and don't have a garage to store it). In the mean time I purchased a Clam Quickset Escape pop up tent. It is great for a base camp tent and you can add covers for the mesh windows to block wind and a proper rain-fly.
