Excellent....really gives a good look into the Grandby details. Thanks!
Minor point...the gas detector is for CO / Carbon Monoxide a product of combustion.
I love that rig! GLWS!
FYI: About 3 months ago I was on a road/trail and came across a creek crossing that I had been across many times in my JK. Stuck in the middle was a Gen1 Tacoma. Water was 3/4 up the wheels. I pulled him out (backwards) with my strap. During the pull, I noticed no...
Thank you for posting this information and photos.
That side door is fantastic! I love the way it modifies the interior and softens the "linear feel" of the typical truck camper layout. I'm drooling over how easy it would be to have bumper mounted racks for a small motorcycle or bikes and...
Enjoy your journey and your build! That is a great platform, and a great score on the ARE cap! Those extra "headroom inches" really make a difference in living room and with the door "up" you have a small rain/sun canopy at the rear!
Your example photos cover a range of mods. I trended...

My "new" '09 Toyota Tacoma did present some issues. Coming from a Chevy full size I had to rethink my prior mounting method which was a RAM mount on the transmission hump just under the dash. My needs included something that would look nice, not interfere...
I've got a Tacoma...IMO the overall radio mounting "environment" is very similar. My needs and the fairly tight confines of the cab & dash area led me to put the main radio body under the driver's seat.
The control head was mounted using a LIDO 18" stalk mount...
This past March (2017) I had some opportunities line up nicely and made a trip from Northern Virginia down to Big Bend National Park, Tx. My 21 Y/O daughter was on spring break from college and she wanted to travel. I wanted to roam a bit as we were still getting occasional snow at home and I...
Just got back from a great 2 week trip from No. VA to Big Bend National Park. Over the last 10 years I've used two trucks for "cap camping" as a solo camper (because as a general rule, once you have a motorhome, no female in your family is sleeping in a tent or truck cap ever again).
I...
Ok, so I have a great motorhome. 14 years of great trips and memories, the RV provides all the comforts of home. But sometimes going for the simple life has it's own rewards. For the last 2 weeks I've been mostly camping out of the bed of my Tacoma sprinkled with a few motel nights when on the...
Might be near San Francisco...at least that's where it's listed on CL.
A nicely set up camper rig - I really admire the match up of the 2500 single cab, utility body, and the Alaskan.
Nice truck and cap. I'm on my second "pickup/cap" rig and have found this choice of truck/cap to be very practical, simple and versatile. Things I have learned:
For a metal cap insulation is very important - even a single layer of Refletex, sections of sleeping pads (the blue cheap ones from...
'07 KLR650. Progressive front springs & rear 465 shock. MOLLE bags on HP engine guards. Tube on left rear is a fly rod holder. Aftermarket foot pegs. Maier ATV handguards. Alaskan sheepskin seat cover.
Our '96 DR200 - a fun little bike with a lot of heart up to about 55MPH. On the beach at...
