    Thanks Mark! Yes. The beach was obviously 4x4 heaven. Especially for the Jeep community. I had many onlookers and fans. Most people had the EZ-up canopy type awnings. And seeing me setup and short timeframe it took, they were asking questions. The Jeep community knew the M101 right away. A...

    ROAD TESTED - ON AND OFF We loaded up and when to OBX NC. The home we rented, named "AS YOU WISH"', was 7 miles up the 4X4 beach in Carova on Swan Beach. The trailer preformed well above all expectations. On the highway it tracked perfectly, even at high speeds. Off-road, with the...

    PROTECTING THE CARGO I picked up industrial kitchen floor matting and cut it to fit the interior of the tub. The matting evaluates the cargo and will allow any water, from rain blowing under the tonneau cover while driving on the highway, to flow to the rear and out the gate.

    THE RACK IS PAINTED I'm installing it on Thursday. I plan on fabricating a bolt-on platform like yours Mark. The platform will be 8'x9' for the Colman tent I'm going with. The tent is a 4 person instant tent (7'x8') that only weighs 12lbs, so I can assemble it on the ground and put it up...
