    Truck Bed Toolbox Anyone???

    Yep. Somewhere on here I had a thread about putting my fridge in my toolbox. Been running it in there for years now with no issues.

    Scoutman's 'new' Starcraft Pine Mtn on Dodge 3500

    My pleasure. My advise to you is to make sure roof and trim seals are maintained and enjoy it. Storing it under a cover or tarp would also help.

    Bed rack fabrication for RTT -- 06 Dodge Ram 3500

    So after getting things repainted and doing another fit check of the tent I realized that in order to shift it as far back as I wanted I needed to remove a welded on tab. I finally got things where I wanted them and was ablet to mount the tent for good. Last step was to get the new awning bag...

    Bed rack fabrication for RTT -- 06 Dodge Ram 3500

    I ended up ordering a set of awning brackets and a new cover for the awning. This past weekend I managed to work on getting the brackets mounted, the welded brackets ground off, the electrical box removed, and touched up the paint on the rack.

    Bed rack fabrication for RTT -- 06 Dodge Ram 3500

    Sorry for the delay. :-) I blinked and it seems that this summer flew by. Back in early July I placed an order to Ashville Vehicle Outfitters for an AluCab Gen 3.1 RTT. A few weeks later my wife and I made a road trip there to get away for a few days and pick up our new tent. AluCab had...

    Bed rack fabrication for RTT -- 06 Dodge Ram 3500

    but now, a change is coming.... We are saying goodbye to our old friend and looking forward to something new as our trips and needs evolve. I can't believe we've had this tent on the truck full time for almost 5 years now. It looks so odd without it sitting up there. It has been a great...

    Camping with the Boy Scouts in April 2021. Beef Stroganoff for ~20 people with lots of leftovers! Turned out awesome.

    Bed rack fabrication for RTT -- 06 Dodge Ram 3500

    We did a lot more hiking in the fall and winter of 2020/21. We also managed to do a few Jeep camping trips with ground tents which were a nice change of pace. This was a one of the local hiking trailheads.

    Wow, I haven't posted any updates in almost a year. Let me fix that... These are the other shots from our trip to the lake.

    Snow Peak Addiction

    I ordered one of the small folding 'my tables' and it looks like it's going to work perfect with our chairs to have a place to set drinks, books, etc. I was a little disappointed when I turned it over and found that it was made in China though. ?

    New headlights on a 15 year old truck

    The ones I went with were aftermarket from Amazon (Depo brand). I've had them on 5 years now and they are starting to show some of the same aging signs the OEM ones did.

    New headlights on a 15 year old truck

    I did this to my 06 Ram a few years ago and wow what a difference they made. What brand did you go with? I like that you kept the 06 light with the amber bar at the bottom. ;)

    35x12.5x17 vs 315-70-17 BFG KO2

    I would agree with this statement and would next ask what it is you plan to put them on? If it's a Super Duty as your name implies then I would definitely look for a more HD friendly tire. If it's for your TJ then you'd probably be ok. I had read numerous reports (and then experienced first...

    Sheet set for an Exped MegaMat

    I figured I'd post this in case anyone is looking for sheets that fit their Exped MegaMat 10 LXW sleeping pad (or others of similar size). I found the dimensions of the pad to be similar to those of a split queen mattress ~30"x80" but then stumbled across sheets for sleeper cabs for big rig...
