This NEEDS a build thread!!!

I'm not sure..? Of course GFC had their fair share of issues like any upstart would. That's why there is a V2 where they addressed many of the early issues. Again, my post is not to compare issue to issue or feature for feature. They're both wedge campers that go about it in very different...

Not here to bash Vagabond as I don't own one and don't have interest in buying one but I've been following their journey since their start and really want them to succeed. Happy to at least see that their operations are still running but looks like they've hit a wall over the last 6 months or...

This is an awesome rig and very tempting. I drive by it everyday since I live in the same neighborhood lol

FYI...Tacomaworld just shut down their Vagabond camper threads on their forum and they are no longer a affiliated vendor there. Seems like the ******tshow continues. TW was probably the biggest resource for Vagabond news and builds but it doesn't seem like they can stand to represent them anymore...

So one of the major flaws with this vehicle and similarly with the first gen Sequoia's, first gen Tacoma and 3rd gen 4Runner is the lower ball joint design. They're designed to work under tension and not compression. This leads to a lot of stress on the lower ball joints which can lead to...

PM sent.

@ns7i Love a good FGT camper build. What size bed does the ovrlnd camper have? Are you able to sleep E-W or is it only N-S?

Not much going on except for some maintenance. Took the truck to my local Toyota specialist to do the TB/WP and fluids. In the meantime, you can always have some fun in a stock Toyota 4x4 in Moab :D

Yours is one of the best builds out there, I'm only trying to follow your example!!!

I'm starting a build thread for my 2006 Tundra Limited Double Cab 4WD so that I can share the build process and my adventures along the way. I picked it up a few months ago from a Chevy dealer in Nevada with 83k miles on it. I wasn't necessarily looking for a FGT and really wanted a full size...

The location seems a little dubious to me as well. If anything I would prefer to have a window over the kitchen area to look out of while prepping my food and also help vent any cooking smells.

Fantastic trucks for the money. Hidden gem in the off-road world and can still be had a decent price. Good luck with your search!!

Look up Granger Ford in Iowa. I think they're doing 3% under invoice on Super Duty's. They're still dealing with wait time and build issues like all Ford dealers but at least they're willing to deal without giving you a run around on price. You email them your build preference and they give...

Perhaps but nothing that can't be added later. As y'all were mentioning above it's a balance between adding windows and roof hatches as those allow heat and cold to get in. My plan is two medium/large windows on the sides and a skylight in the cabover. If I needed it down the road then maybe...

I can attest to this as well. I was at OE PNW in Bend where it was a hot 85F ( but not scorching) and I spent some time in their slide in 6.5' camper. It felt 5-10 degrees cooler inside the camper. That particular camper had the Wildlands artic tern door open and it had one window which I...

Curious what your thoughts were on the Tundra vs F150? I test drove a Tundra and liked it but didn't love it. I think if I went with the 1500 platform it'd likely be a F150 because at this point I think they have their reliability and *hit put together more than Toyota. The new Tundra is...

So this is an okay to excuse or give a pass to Hallmark? Lack of qualified technicians/trades workers so when an install goes wrong they are not at fault? Perhaps what you're saying on a more global and philosophical ideology is accurate and true, that's not the argument here. Looking at it...

That's not true in this particular case though. The OP went directly to Hallmark to have the install done on one of their campers. This should have been an easy install for them and they should have made it right to the OP after the error. I think cheaping out would have been to have some...
