Why the heck am I excited about this? I don't even have a Tacoma! A 40 gallon tank would be sweet to have. Excellently done project from start to finish. Hmmm......I wonder if it would fit a Tundra?

Thank you Chuck Norris! . Nice looking Montero!

Being slightly in the know and in Virginny, I am sworn to secrecy. I keep my swears true to heart, but I am really curious to see how this all turns out in the end! Till next week!

"Bow chicka bow wow" That's the look we were going for..... offroad cathouse

We did get one coolio deluxe and luxurious item done last, last weekend. We built a headboard for the bed! If you look inside most teardrops they almost never have a headboard.....I don't know why. This is another of my wifes nice designs and she learned the execution on Mr Gore's internet...

Well, let's see, in reverse order to you: 3)Thanks, my wife discovered her woodworking skills when we rebuilt our farmhouse in PA a few years ago. 2)Thanks, again. We are trying to build the nicest teardrop we can. We are Glampers in heart and have a reputation to keep:cool:. 1)Well, yes, we...

I find it funny how similar trucks can be so different. My first "big" tires were the 255/85s. With a 1.5" lift and the 16x8s w/4" BS I simply smashed the pinchweld and replaced the liner - flattening it against the fenderwell with a well placed screw. The 285s are with the same lift. I had...

I'm sure California has a regulatory commission on burning trailer trash, and it might be nigh on impossible to rid yourself of yours.....good luck. Thanks for the compliments guys!

Yep, I think I managed to be the first on here with them.I've got about 14,000 miles on them so far. Great tires. I'm sure you'll get rid of the rubbing issue, but I will be curious to see how your gas mileage is affected. I lost about 1 - 1.5 mpg highway going to these vs the 255 ST's.....if...

With that in mind, it brings up the thought, just how much off-highway potential are you looking for? For myself, I went to the aggressive AT route (Cooper ST Maxx). To me it's no notable lessening of highway (wet or dry - but I don't have snow/ice time with them) performance, with much better...

Gotcha....I thought it was some fancy dancy magic that I wasn't comprehending, but it's just physics.....and something to consider for the Tundra

So how's that new relay wiring supposed to work and make brighter lights? . Even with my own truck monkey, I roll the cover up a lot. Of course my rack is a bit substantial (probably the size of your truck bed) and I tend to leave it on 3 seasons unless I need to haul something tallish. I like...

Our teardrop thread is here....hopefully completion is by April. I did not realize you are in the East, also....and not too far from here. We haven't run into any pack it all out places, yet, but since I'm sure we will, what is the brand of throne you have there? We have used (and still...

I'll throw in for the Cooper STMaxx's, my new go to tire. Miles better the the BFG All Terrain standard, and a bit better than the Cooper ST that I loved before. Quiet, durable, aggressive, streetable, it's the closest thing to a true All Terrain that I've ever seen. It is heavy though, so...

Those Rock Warrior rims are coolio.....

It's just an example of the extreme. A decent woodworker can build a very sturdy (since nothing is indestructible) teardrop or boat or whatever. A minor example: our stove/oven drawer - can be supported by the ends on blocks and I can jump my 230lb old man body up and down inside it without...

Our interior height is really more like a 4x10 teardrop would have. The extra 12 inches we wanted as roof boxes just went below the bed, so officially we have a 5x10 teardrop. This is the cutaway view, with the mattress there is just enough room for your feet vertically. Realistically, your...

She'll find lots of gatherings on the Tearjerkers site....I know you've joined already..... That was our original design. Roof rack with custom boxes. Lightning struck and we decided there was no reason we couldn't do a basement. It is still above the frame so there is no loss of ground...

Martinjmpr's reasons for a teardrop mirror our reasons almost exactly. ' Hard shell (setting up tents in the rain/wind/snow/sleet sucks that includes RTTs and Flippacs) Lockable (yes we know it will only keep out the mildly nosy, but that's all your house does anyway) Stealth (set up your RTT at...

I really hate when the weekend is over! At least our weekends are spent productively. Of course, I had to work Saturday (but at least I get Monday off that way), so Beth worked on the dovetailing for the kitchen drawers . . Sunday, we began by gluing the pieces together with some TitebondIII...
