    You're heading into my part of the world. if you wouldn't mind company, feel free to DM me and I might be able to join you if things line up at my end. I took my Kamparoo through Cottonwood canyon, Beef Basin, Dark Canyon, Lockhart Basin, and Elephant Hill on the same trip. Your camper is...

    Radiator-type heater from propane hot water heater?

    There are some interesting thoughts to ponder here, and here are some of my thoughts. When I used to sleep in my 80 during the colder months, I'd just turn on the engine, warm up the cabin then crawl out from the bag. I didn't actually "hang" out in the 80. Fast forward many moons, and I now...

    Kamparoo Transcontinental rear-fold (new build)

    LOL, the mighty 1HZ is a loud clacker but she's uber reliable though. If you ever want to see my spare tire improvement/mod thing, let me know. You can barely make it out in one of the pictures I posted previously, along with the ATV winch for opening/closing the top. Another improvement I...

    Kamparoo Transcontinental rear-fold (new build)

    I was curious about what leaf springs they're using and I see that slipper style of springs are still being used. Very cool! They're noisy but they work very well. I was hoping to see an improved design of the spare tire but it's still the same from the old days. I can't quite tell from this...

    Lexus GX550 Overtrail vs. Grenadier or new Toyota Land Cruiser?

    I'm quite content with the two, high mileage rigs I own but I'm very curious about the Gren, strictly from a knowledge base point of view. They seem to be a well thought out platform.

    Nah, OE ain't my jam. I'll wait to see the Gren on dirt, like how it's marketed [emoji16] Sent from my SM-G981U using Tapatalk

    5 lbs propane tank inside of vehicle

    I carry a 6lb worthington alum propane tank inside for several years but I don't sleep in the 80, rather on top in the RTT. I also carry, GASP, a 5g NATO fuel can inside for special times. https://powertank.com/products/cyl-pp06

    Lexus GX550 Overtrail vs. Grenadier or new Toyota Land Cruiser?

    This has been an interesting read why my coffee is being made at the office. I haven't seen a Gren in my neck of the woods but it'd be cool to run into one or to wheel a trail with in UT just for some understanding of the platform.

    Van Prices have dropped big time!

    I'm hoping to date a woman with a van, yup that's my plan as of now. I don't need to add another rig to my fleet.

    Kamparoo Transcontinental rear-fold (new build)

    Mounting to the back of a truck chassis would be so cool, I think.

    Kamparoo Transcontinental rear-fold (new build)

    Oh man, o man, you're bringing back some memories for me as well. My daughter grew up in a '02 Transcontinental Pack Weekender, and I think I owned it for 15 years maybe? I'm glad to see some improvements like a more robust tongue design. I essentially did something similar to mine as the...

    Lol, that makes sense. I'm 5'10" and wishing I had the long version. Yours is XL which I don't really need. Sent from my SM-G981U using Tapatalk
