Wow, that is a neat bag! I might consider snagging one of those for my kitchen setup. I'm somewhat of an incompetent boob when it comes to the culinary arts, so it's taking me longer to figure out exactly what set up I want.

Anyone have any experience with this camping table. This is a great table for what you get. My question is how is the build quality compared to others? OZ products typically hold up well, but this seems almost too good

Im the type of person that abuses and loses my tools therefore buy from harbor freight, ive bought some ozark trail stuff in the past with great results but i have found academy to be cheaper than walmart for camping plus i hate going into walmart. I choose coleman products over yeti because yeti went anti gun a few years ago and because coleman is made in texas by texans And i shop local every chance i get. Craigslist is also a great place to get second hand camping gear.

Thats a flawed line of thinking regarding Yeti. Yeti simply is no longer offering a "discount" to NRA members. That doesn't make them anti-gun. Did Overland Bound offer you an NRA discount? No. Does that make them "anti-gun"?

No but overland bound isnt sold to hunters as a way to keep game fresh either is it? Ive never been a nra member look into their flawed history if you enjoy your rights as a gun owner.

Yes, flawed history......agreed. So the NRA has done some stupid embarrassing things, which has caused some of their sponsors to bail on them, as far as things like NRA discounts. That's what happened. Nothing more. So that doesn't make Yeti anti-gun is my point.

That's not "anti-gun", what you're saying is that supported gun policy that you don't agree with. Which I understand, and you can totally choose who to support with your business. But to say one of the largest gun supply stores, Cheaper than Dirt, is anti-gun just makes no sense. People define responsible gun ownership/usage differently. Many are adopting a more aggressive stance as more and more people die each year from gun violence., this is a good thing in my opinion, obviously we have to do *something* different, to address the amount of gun related deaths. *What* exactly that is we do, so many disagree on.

There was a guy at Overland East with one of those set up on his roof. I didn't get a picture of it, but I googled a similar setup. Don't know why you'd need to put it on your roof, but it's an option.

I have the same set up on my trailer. In Florida when in the national forest the Bears and coyotes come into your camp.IMG_4584.JPG

Haven’t had it in high winds yet. It straps down to roof rack. No movement getting in or out.

That’s an interesting idea. I was going to build a battery bank housed in an ammo can for similar purposes. I don’t need the compressor, and would like some additional ports for usb. On the fence, I’d easily spend $60 on the build. Thought about one of these also: Amazon.com: Powkey AC Power Bank 88Wh External Battery Pack 65Watts Travel Charger with Indicator Light,with 2USB,2DC,1AC for MacBook Laptops Smartphones: Computers & Accessories

Thanks for posting. BTW I’m running a 2000 TJ, you?

Picked up this Ozark Trail Bungie Chair for my DV trip.

Pro’s: comfortable, high-back, so I can star gaze and have my head supported. Shoulder strap on chair. Adjustable cup holder.

Con’s: bulky, thin storage bag.
