    Questions for AT Summit owners

    I've had mine for a few years now so I should be able to answer pretty well. 1. Very little. I have the thermal liner and it does a great job helping me sleep in lol 2. Yes. You have to make sure you air it out once home or at your next stop or you will get the mildewy smell. Probably...

    why????

    Texas to Alaska to Texas. 2020 Honda Accord Hybrid driving on the Dalton Highway and the Dempster Highway. July/August 2023.

    I'm a huge Great Lakes fan and live in Indiana so of course I would recommend stopping by Indiana Dunes National Park as you will be driving right by. The ecology is unmatched and the dunes are pretty cool. If you like sand dunes Warren Dunes State Park in Michigan has even larger ones! Look...

    My Journey

    Yes, thank you so much for posting your adventures! I've been following your thread for a while and it helps me get through the winter blues dreaming about places I will go someday. Keep exploring and showing us the beauty that's both close to home and far away!

    Hardsider wedge camper out of Ohio

    I understand you rooting for them! I live less than 100 miles from their facility so it's nice to see a new popup camper coming from somewhere other than the West Coast. Three years ago when I was in the market I would have checked them out for sure in person! I ended up with an AT Summit...

    New Garmin inReach - inReach Messenger Plus

    I used to have the Freedom plan for my original inReach mini. I would pay $35/year to have the ability to turn-off the service at any point(I only took a couple remote trips a year) and the most basic plan was $15/month for the months I actually needed it. So, for $65-80/year I was covered in...

    kayak vs. canoe

    Pick whichever one takes up less space in your garage because if you're like me you'll keep bumping into it wishing you used it more!

    Reasonable Mods For Carrying Heavy Things

    Measurbating? Lol You're not kidding about rotational weight! I just swapped tires and only went up 3 pounds/tire. I immediately dropped over 2 mpg, but this is on a 4-cylinder Tacoma(underpowered) so maybe not as big a deal on larger rigs?

    Pendleton Yakima Camp blankets

    I remember Galyan's! They got bought-out by D i c k ' s Sporting Goods and went to crap. Pendleton is good stuff! I use a wool blanket(not as nice as Pendleton, but decent) and a Rumpl synthetic.

    Inside/outside gear storage case recommendations?

    I got on that deal the last time he had some! Picked up two, but now I need one more. I keep checking eBay occasionally to see if he posts more for sale.

    Camper and Truck Photos

    Here's a pic from my most recent trip. I've had my AT Summit for over two and a half years and nothing but good things to say! Only mod I've made to the truck is a set of Alcan leafs right after installing the topper. Perfect for me!

    New AluCab ModCap Family

    Nothing is superior to the wedge. Have a good night! Seriously though, I kinda want to drive 9 hours to Expo East to see one in person...

    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    I use this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B076S6KBP2?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title It's made for smaller areas(like inside a camper) and I know from experience it works!

    Scout pop-up

    I know. Not a huge deal if you're just hauling a bunch of mulch or a rick of firewood home. These campers, however, are semi-permanent and make the truck drive like a DOG. I hope nobody gets into an accident while driving with too much weight. If I'm a claim adjuster first thing I'm doing...

    Scout pop-up

    I've got no issue with the price considering the market(and quality). My issue is these companies keep designing 1000lb+ campers for MIDSIZE trucks. I own a Tacoma and that's already over max payload- barebones and empty! They should have just designed it for full-size trucks and keep the...
