    The Suburban back end door debate

    What years are you thinking? The 92-99 (I think??) have a separate glass that lift up, while the older ones have the glass that needs to roll down before you open it. I just bough a 95 with a tailgate and while I would have preferred barn doors, it was the right price with a tailgate and I've...

    I read this thread yesterday and just happen to come up on this today http://pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=875298 I know you were looking for new but it seems to be a decent deal when you consider it comes with a shell. On a sidenote, i went on toyota.com and apparently you cant get...

    Keg House..

    I dont get. I dont see any advantage to these VS shipping containers, but the disadvantages seem plenty like less interior space and difficulty furnishing. Its one of those things that only the artist who made it loves.

    FWC vs All Terrain Camper

    Thanks for clarifying that. I figured the Kalibri wasn't going to be a big seller for you anytime soon but I applaud your effort. Perhaps a Japanese distributor? Hopefully I'll be able to afford one of your products in the next few years.

    FWC vs All Terrain Camper

    Kestrel??? Did anyone else notice this? I saw it on the website the other day and now noticed it here too. Whatever happened to the model for kei trucks that was on truck camper magazine?

    Prohibiting Vehicles in Residential Areas

    Would it be possible to use the new bed to camouflage your flatbed? Cant tell if that would be technically following the law. BTW this law technically outlaws parking long body panel vans and f-450s. Might even see if it outlaws all vehicles registered as commercial vehicles since most pick ups...

    Tent Cot to Roof Top Tent conversion

    Just wondering, what is the advantage of having it on the roof vs having it on the floor. I figured that the tent cot solved most the downsides of a regular tent: being on the floor and set up time.

    8' truck camper, no cab over

    Vic, I just asked because i saw your location as Peru and thought maybe their roads are RHD. But that why most LHD countries have their vans, rvs, etc. doors on the pass side but i suppose it would still be on the pass side on a RHD since the steering would be on the other side. Are you...

    8' truck camper, no cab over

    My truck is somewhere around 41 or 42 from the bed floor to the top of the cab, and it had one of the taller cabs. They usually give 4-6 for flex so the standard floor to cabover is probably about 4ft even. Theres a few factory side door models, but they are mostly newer. Are you planning on...

    8' truck camper, no cab over

    Stand up height will push the overall height to about 10 ft tall or about 7ft above the bed of the truck. Most non cabovers will try to keep the height less than a foot or so above the cab. By having a cabover on a tall shell the manufacturer usually make the frontal area more aerodynamic as...

    If they brought the Jimny over to the states, would you pick one up?

    Soft top and a diesel would be perfect. I tried to make a point that a low cost true small suv would survive over at http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=31098&highlight=convertible+suv If they could price it at 12k base and 18k for a rubicon type package and still get 30...
