What a coincidence...my J30 is #087. I drove from Northern Wisconsin to San Diego for installation.

I apologize! It's clear you already have 3 very fine supervisors doing very fine supervisor stuff...

It's apparent what the problem is: You need 3 more supervisors!! :D

The biggest advantage of having an Ursa Minor top on my Jeep is that I can haul my canoes on top. Most RTTs cannot accommodate that...

A couple of thoughts: Will you be carrying anything on the roof? If so, go with the Ursa Minor. I carry a Clam screen shelter for hanging out in camp and a canoe on the J30 racks. The shelter is a great place to get away from bugs and bad weather. I travel solo with a 65lb poodle. It is...

Great report, Ace!

Check out https://www.snowtrekkertents.com/ I have a 10X13 Expedition Basecamp that weighs between 25-30lbs. I can set it up by myself in less than 30 minutes. Big enough to have 6 people over for dinner sitting in chairs like grown-ups! A woodstove serves as a cooking surface and will heat...

It was! It is a free dispersed site at the mouth of the Huron River. An old-timer showed up and we chatted for a while about the history of the area. An hour later, he showed up with a load of dry hard maple firewood for my campfire! I love the UP!!

Just a few shots from a recent Fall color tour of the U.P. of Michigan. Mouth of the Huron on Lake Superior, Sturgeon River Wilderness and Sylvania Wilderness Area.

I use an Exped Megamat and leave it up top all the time. An extra 4" of comfort! After popping the top, I open the mat's inflate valve and leave it open until bedtime. In the AM, I open the deflate valve while on the mat and lay it flat before closing the top.

Nice report Ace!! Love your "outstanding rock"!!

Ditto the awesome customer service from Truckfridge!! I am leaving this week on a trip and found the 12V Indel B cable broken. I emailed them yesterday and they replied at 0730 this morning. They have already shipped the replacement cable and it will arrive before I leave!

New tarp addition to the rig...Slumberjack Roadhouse Tarp. It took some slight modifications in the set up to work around the J30. Huge coverage for either rain or sun.

First set up of the Roadhouse... Contrary to the package insert, there are no online instructions for set up. But it is not complicated. The Ursa Minor top required a few modifications to attach to the Jeep. Very large and provides nice coverage. I think it would provide nice rain...

I can't help you with that. Never had 2 up top. I regularly sleep with a 65lb poodle in the top. She will sleep on one side and is not disturbed when I get up during the night. I don't think it would be too hard to sit toward the back of the jeep on your side of the camper and lift the hatch...
