Can someone with a lot of money and time simply buy both trucks and give them a good long term test. Please!!!

Based on your needs(more space for kids) I would get a CrewMax. You mention that you like the F150 because it has a locker but then say you are doing fire roads and not much wheeling. No need for a locker on fire roads. If you plan on keeping the truck long term I would get the Tundra hands...

A flatbed model FWC on a Tundra has been on my mind for a while now too. My only concern is MPG and overall rig size. I can get around 300 miles to the tank with my current set up. And then there is the size aspect of having a full size truck and living/traveling on the East Cost. Since you...

Things are looking good! How are you liking the Weboost? That's one thing I would like to add to my camper.

Although I've never had the camper weighed I estimate that it's closer to 1200lbs fully loaded for a winter trip and probably 1100lbs for a summer trip. This is the lightest shell model and FWC says it weighs around 795lbs when it was shipped to the customer. I've tried my best to keep...

Looks like you had quite the adventure. Did you leave any of the windows open to allow air to vent? I normally leave my bottom access ports open and at least two windows partially open with a 4 inch gap. Even on the coldest of nights that I've camped (-23 out in Kansas) I managed to stay warm...

Thanks man! I dig your build too...You guys do awesome work. A few weeks back we had a GTS lift added to our runner. Pete did a great job with the install and it was nice catching up with the others. One day maybe I'll check out the shop in NH.

I'm sure we all do this. Heck, I have two brand new vehicles and I still want to change them out from time to time. It's the sad struggle that many of us have. Could I go out and get myself a new Power Wagon or Tundra this weekend, yes I could. But I would waste a lot of money. Unless your Land...

A few days ago I finished another project. Recently I purchased a set of Maxtrax and I needed a place to store them. I thought about adding a cargo box on top and storing them in there, but I don't think I'm ready to add anything to the roof yet. After looking at a few other ideas I ended up...

For now I've decided to hold off on adding a cargo rack on top. I recently built a mount that allows me to secure my maxtrax to the rear of the camper, so that takes care of that item. If I decide to go this route in the future I'll be sure to post up my thoughts here.

I really like the collapsible ladder. Can't believe I haven't seen something like that before.

Lately I've been wondering if I should expand my foot print onto my roof. I have the yakima tracks so adding a few items to the roof should be fine. However, as I think about the actual use of this I tend to come up with a lot more cons over pros. Items to store: 1) Maxtrax 2) Shovel 3)...

What type of truck do you have and what size tire?

Beach driving in Maryland.

Marble Canyon, AZ. Took this around midnight with a Canon T5i kit lens.

I would suggest looking at this from a different point. Focus on what type of FWC you want. Have you been inside a flat bed model or a slide in? The interior room and layout is a big difference. Once you decide on the type of camper I would then look for a truck that is capable of handling the...

Love that shot!!! Thanks for the details on the refurbished ones, I never knew anything about that.

Has anyone seen any awesome black friday deals on cameras? I'm looking at a Canon M50.

Rando, yes I have a CO monitor and it did not go off. When it happened the first time I thought the same thing so I exited the camper for a few hours to play it safe. When it happened again I took the heater outside and it did the same thing. I agree that these type of heaters create...

The gauge is actually a temperature reading. I wanted to know the temperature inside and outside of the camper so I picked that one up off amazon. Here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MUOIQ8W/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 My goal zero is charged from the truck...
