I am interested but not enough to start making molds. And I've still got the Jeep/Safari trailer, which looks just fine behind the Grenadier and if I ever stop hauling cargo with it I'll be able to finish the interior as a camper. Also don't really have room to store a second trailer here.

I posted a photo of this Land Rover tub trailer earlier in the thread - here are some detail and interior photos of it... Interior views: With the matching tow vehicle: Would be cool to do a trailer like this that matches the Grenadier. For the Land Rover these trailers are made...

Land Rover Owner featured this piece of kit - a "force multiplier" puller block. I'm a big believer in multiple line winch pulls, I'll gladly sacrifice pull speed for pull force and reduced current draw. Whenever possible when I winch I use a snatch block and set up for a multiple line pull...

Been there, done that... A few years ago I was driving from the East Coast to Las Vagas to attend the SEMA Show and I decided to do the trail to the bottom of the Grand Canyon as described in the article in the previous post. (This was before I had the Grenadier) You need to stop in at the...

An article about a Land Rover trip to the Grand Canyon.

Campfire Tent I like how this tent has an awning that you can drive up to, making for access from the tent to the vehicle out of the weather. The Land Rover is pulled up sideways to the tent but you could also back up to it for rear access. Look at how there's a flap at the outer edge of...

A cutlery organizer, hanging from the roof drip rail in this photo from one of the magazines: A few years ago I designed what I called the "Cutlery Keeper", it was specifically sized to fit with the Outback Adventures Trailgater tailgate tables for the Jeep. One is installed on this tailgate...

I'm doing some remodeling inside the house and needed some trim molding this past weekend. I bought three pieces of casing molding 14' long and three pieces of another type that were 16' long. Since my roof rack is 8' long, I can carry long things like these easily with a 4' overhang on the...

During the Covid pandemic one of the magazines offered these: The reminded me that Land Rover Owner magazine often offers premiums along with subscriptions although most don't apply to subscribers on the U.S. due to the cost of shipping. One premium that was offered several times to...

Fridge Power Outlet I posted what follows below a few months ago in my JK thread, but the Land Rover magazine item above is what started me with it so I'll repeat the info here: Seeing this item solved a problem for me. On rare occasions I've had a power connectivity problem with my fridge -...

What if you camp with a large ground tent but it takes up too much room in the Grenadier? How about a rack basket just for the tent? I checked the web site for more info and not much can be found there but in any case it's not a product that is available in the U.S. Wouldn't be too hard to...

Canvas Box Covers Ignore the guys trying to figure out what's wrong with the engine, I'm posting this photo to show the fabric box covers on the roof rack. Plastic boxes known as "Wolf boxes" seem to be very commonly used overseas on Land Rover roof racks; I did some searching and found...

Bags on the sides? Definitely never have seen this on a Grenadier or a Jeep. Would anyone do this?

Been there, done that (before I owned the Grenadier)... Death Valley I've done trails and camped in Death Valley several times and it's always a fun adventure. I usually enter Death Valley the same way they did in the article - through Titus Canyon from Nevada. It's a good place to enter...

Exploring Death Valley: In November I plan to drive my Grenadier to Las Vegas for the SEMA Show and after the show I plan to explore Death Valley offroad and do some roof top tent camping there. And on the way back east I'll make a stop in Moab, Utah to do some trails there too.
