    6x10 base camp/duck hunting/household goods mover

    Those RTIC coolers are awesome, and aRe the best deal around. We have two 45 quarters. Went with the smaller sizes because they are easier to move around, and because we keep the meat in one and the beverages in the other. Looks like you've been doing well on waterfowl.

    Timberline Trailers.

    Clutch, We are still thinking that over too and are tent camping until then. For several years I thought it would be a flat bed pop up camper on a truck, lIke a FWC or ATC. My wife has requested something slightly bigger than that with better access. She thinks the stairs and short doors...

    Timberline Trailers.

    These are the ones that I saw back in the day. http://campwagons.com/index.html I am still considering something like this for when I retire. They are a pretty good option if you are looking for something big enough to live out of that will be tough enough to avoid the campground life.

    Timberline Trailers.

    I first got to see these trailers about 16 years ago in Nevada. They are burley and well set up for what people now call "off-grid boondocking". Sheep herders call that "living high on the hog." I spoke to timberline a few years back and asked if they were amenable to minor changes in the set...

    Flippac, is it RIP?

    Well, that explains why they were adamant to me earlier this summer that they were not going to sell me a camper. I can't say that I ever dealt with a company that had worse communication skills. They could have said something like, "We have a significant backlog of orders that we need to...

    Aluminum winch bumpers?

    Gracias, folks. It sounds like Aluminum is the best route. I'm not so much a rock crawler or even an off-road guy. Its just that my roads can occasionally be mistaken for goat trails. My truck gets me where I want to go, and hopefully it gets me back.

    Aluminum winch bumpers?

    Any direct experience with these? How do they compare with the steel bumpers for strength? I've been looking at Pelfreybilt and CBI aluminum winch bumpers for a 2016 Taco. Both are roughly 60# for the base aluminum bumper which is about half the weight of the steel version. Wanna keep the...

    Flip-pac

    Jr-ex, Thanks for that explanation. I would never fault anyone for making the decisions they have. Honestly, I think that most people interested in this sort of stuff understand that it's a niche market. We are fine with long timelines as long as the seller is straight and forthcoming with us.

    Flip-pac

    I wish the Flip-Pac folks the best. I just won't buy anything from them because of their poor communications. Problems and delays happen, but I didn't feel like they were being honest with me abut them. In retrospect, I am pretty happy that we stuck with the ground tent and the Morris Mule...

    Flip-pac

    Thanks, guys. I told them that I had no problems waiting, but they still wouldn't sell it to me. I called daily for about about the last week or week and a half. It was a strange deal. I've never had a company that seemed so determined not to take my money. I understand small companies have...

    Flip-pac

    Any one else had trouble ordering a Flip-Pac lately? I spoke with their sales person and got some questions answered and received what I thought was a reasonable timeline for delivery (3 months). But then I spent 3 weeks unsuccessfully trying to order one from them. No one would return my...
