    Well ****. This has been a weird week. I rolled my truck. **** **** **** We had a day of 50f weather, rivers of water down the roads, and 0f that night. Then, it snowed about three inches the next day. We were on a shelf road and I was leading- soon as I hit the patch where the water had...

    So this thread will change slightly... I ordered a new truck about 2 months ago and it's about a week away. It's another F150, but this one is a bit different. I'll post more pictures when it arrives. As much as I love my truck and have had incredibly good luck with all my Fords (my last 13 FX4...

    My Journey

    Jerry, Brought a legit tear to my eye reading about Montana... I have a "Montana" as well, he's a Golden. Been with me for 9 years so far, and healthy as a horse. (*KNOCK ON WOOD*). I know exactly how you feel. Words won't be able to describe how devastating it'll be when he's gone... Hoping...

    So far so good- they're performing better than the AT3W Falkens, which surprised me.

    Small update- Yanked the falkens off and put on a set of 305 width DuraTracs, quite liking them! We've also got 60+cm of snow in the last week (25+ inches) so quite a good test. I also picked up an 18' BigTex car hauler for dual duty- haul the Mustang track car, and the off road toys. This is...

    Thanks for the info. I live in Northern BC, so I have somewhat of an idea of weather, obviously not quite like AK though.

    Thanks guys. Yeah, I either want to go basic with the shell and a sleeping platform, or get a TT. HMmmm

    Planning Alaska trip- Pop up Camper or RTT? General planning.

    I'm going to use my own truck as a base for the trip, taking a rental vehicle in that remote of an area... Well, we all know how people treat rentals lol. I wouldn't put a full on camper on a half ton, they are brutally over loaded with them. The pop up is the max... My truck's rated to tow...

    Planning Alaska trip- Pop up Camper or RTT? General planning.

    Can't buy a travel trailer without that stuff anyway. And who wouldn't want running water and a comfy bed? Seriously.

    Planning Alaska trip- Pop up Camper or RTT? General planning.

    Thanks guys! That was the other option I was considering, but I wasn't sure travel trailers were sturdy enough for this type of travel? If they are... My choice would be about a 20 foot unit... Dual axles for safety and all the comforts of home. Does anyone make a TT capable of this?
