    72 IH + ‘85 Alaskan = Questionable Judgment...

    Offroad capability of full size truck

    This. To start I would just get a pop up camper. Flatbed would be quite the adds a lot of time and expense if it turns out not to be required. That dough would be better spent enjoying the outdoors if you ask me... A whole DIY could take a long time. Up to you though. If it were me, I'd...

    "Noise Cameras" for loud pipes?

    Here's a cover I came across of a different kind. Not really my jam, but have to admit the talent is real. The one guys plays so hard he shreds his bow. Pretty cool to watch.

    "Noise Cameras" for loud pipes?

    Haha! You're welcome... Damn. I should've tagged @Ozarker on that post too since he made me listen to Tiny Tim. I owe him one.

    I sneak the Gin and Juice one in just to see peoples reactions.

    "Noise Cameras" for loud pipes?

    Bluegrass covers hey? That makes me think of Hayseed Dixie, haha Or Steve .n. seagulls... I really want @ITTOG to listen to all three the whole way through. Just wish I could see the reaction. I imagine it something like this: Edited to add @Ozarker so he can give these tunes a...

    Offroad capability of full size truck

    Yep. And crew cab only for the last little while. If the OP is good with a crew, the Ram 2500 Rebel might be a contender. If it were me, I'd spec it like this: 350 for added payload. Ride should be okay since there will be weight in the bed. Added OnBoard Scales to make it easy to keep and...

    Offroad capability of full size truck

    You'd be right at the top of your payload in most half tons. Depends on the terrain you want to travel. If carrying a couple thousand lbs I'd suggest airbags for the rear suspension or a different leaf pack to aid with possible sag.

    Roaming Lost: x3 Locked 1990 Toyota HDJ81 (80 Series)

    How do you like the quad lock? I'm thinking about getting one for my motorcycle. They appear to be good quality?

    Offroad capability of full size truck

    Is the camper going to be on the truck more than off? If so, I'd go with a HD truck. You'll end up getting the same MPG anyway and same footprint. 1/2 ton won't be getting great MPG with 37's anyway. A few HD trucks will fit 35's or 37's stock. I'd start with that, use it and upgrade as required.

    Goodyear Wrangler Boulder mt tire.

    Yes, my Duratrac's were much better in winter than I'm finding my current AT3's. I was hoping these may carry the 3 peak rating as another option for my next tires. These look promising too...

    Goodyear Wrangler Boulder mt tire.

    I can't see anywhere if it mentions it's 3 peak rated. Maybe I 'm just missing it but guessing it's not.

    Gladiator - Good/Bad?

    I really really really wanted a Gladiator when they came out. And I really really really tried to justify it and make it work. Our trailer at the time was 23' from hitch to bumper and weighed 5,000 - 5,500 lbs packed and loaded to camp. Well within trailer tow spec. (I was looking at a Sport S...

    I didn't notice that. Thank you for mentioning it.

    72 IH + ‘85 Alaskan = Questionable Judgment...

    Yep! That's what I'm thinking. The inflatables would save from having to purchase an Adarac rack system (Only rack system I can find that works with a hard folding tonneau cover) and the required J racks for the kayaks themselves. As you can see in this pic, we don't have a rack on the truck...

    Sounds like Stellantis is on the right path.

    Agreed. Perfect for camping duties. The bolts are pretty neat. I worked for a GM dealer way back when the 1st Volts came out and I was pretty impressed with them. I imagine the newer EV's are better. Not really thinking small car for me. Small like 2 door Wrangler or Bronco. Maybe by then...

    Sounds like Stellantis is on the right path.

    This could be an ideal one vehicle solution for me if it's not $128,000... 141 miles of EV range is plenty. Then you have the 27 gallon gas tank for road trips and trailer towing range. https://insideevs.com/news/701194/2024-ram-1500-ramcharger-battery-range-gas-tank/ Either that or I'll...

    72 IH + ‘85 Alaskan = Questionable Judgment...

    We each use our own kayak. Me solo on one and the wife and our terrier on the other. Thinking the inflatables discussed above would be easier to transport.
