I do plan to go electric-over hydraulic on my truck able, but the actuator is not cheap, but that's my call on my design of my trailer and part to take full advantage of the truck axle. I did heat up my brakes on a long and steep hill, where I also ran hot going up because of how steep and slow...

The season is winding down, but it was a good year, and the second year for the trailer. I look forward to next year already!

I've also got a 16 gallon tank. It's actually nice to have for dishes, showers and such. I was surprised we used the shower much more then I expected and thought it may just of been a novelty, but we've camped in a few places where there was no showers, and while the others just didn't, we did...

Got a temporary fix on the awning done as well. If you followed the story of the trip, the awning broke 2 knuckles in some wind gusts during the setup at Meat Cove, NS. I wasn't sure what would work on mine, and to be honest, I thought they were all the same, so I ordered in a set of Rhino Rack...

JeepExpeditions.org, your posts to me come off as marketing and almost arrogant, with no real facts, experiences or information to show a true subjective contribution to the subject. Is the reason your emphasizing the point that it was build in your driveway is that it's not only...

Probably the best advice! My parents camped with me since I was an infant. They did the pop-ups back then, then moved to 2 tents (one for them, and one for me and my sis) then moved to a 19ft travel trailer before we got too old and busy to camp as a family, but still had the tents for the odd...

There's a common mod called the Lobo Rack, started by a guy named Sgt Lobo. I've got one myself since I bought my Xterra and I love it. It's rack shelving you get at your local hardware store, and you attach it using clips and hooks that you feel you want to use...

Thanks! But your build is coming along well as well and it looking really good! Adding more to the updates. I was able to finally get around to installing LED strips inside my RTT. I started with zip ties, but I didn't like it, and was worried that they'd wear on the tent material, or would...

Your build is coming along well! I do like the kitchen!

Leaving Peggy's Cove. No idea when or how this happened, but I stopped after noticing a strong abnormal vibration when we got on the highway. A Nissan dealership parts open until 1pm on a Saturday that had some studs and nuts in stock! We got there with 15min to spare. Heading back to...

Shortest Ferry Ever And camp in Baddeck, NS Breakfast and Bacon in Baddeck Leaving Baddeck And our camp in Darthmouth while visiting a friend Alexander Keiths Brewery (and we did the tour) The girlfriend's camera bugged randomly through the trip. A small trailer means I can bring...

Meat Cove was full. Go camp on the beach they said... Broke the winch, and broke the awning in a gust of wind while setting it up I had a neighbour, but I did serve to others a warning to stay on the rocky part of the beach. A few almost got stuck just turning around It...

The beautiful Calbot Trail, Nova Scotia Overheating the motor on the way up a long hill past Pleasant Bay, and overheating the brakes on the way down.

Our camp at Campbells's Cove, PEI I do love this awning, plenty of room. Hiding from the misty wind. Supper with a view Campfire with Popcorn, and a view Waiting to get on the ferry to Nova Scotia A little tight on the ferry And crossing onto Cape Breton Island To setup camp at...

I'll post up some pics of our trip out in Eastern Canada. But I'll link to the full albums later on if anyone wants to see more details on the trip on the trailer/camp album, our personal album with the plates we visited, or the album of the sister-in-laws gnome that we stole and took many funny...

We've done the shower a few times and it's such a godsend and a morale booster. I have a fill wrap-around awning and with the sides, we section off a small section for a shower. We're still working on the details and concept of the shower and making it easy to setup, but even though it's in...

I had bought the Atwood ones and had planed to modify them (since I needed 31"+ inches), but that didn't really work out. I then bought the BAL C in their 31" model, but they're just really wide and really long that installing them in a manner that's tucked away wasn't possible. With that I...

I can get one small update done for the moment at least, and going chronological, back in July, there was an open 4x4 truck show. I decided to show up and open up the trailer with the tent and awning. It got quite a bit of attention, and people were using it for shade for the truck pull (human...

Wow times flies! I'm definitely overdue for an update! But I gotta wait until my girlfriend and I finish going through the pictures of our trip....which is going slow cause we're quite busy... A Sunday Campers awning, model WA02, with the sides and floor...but haven't tried the floor yet. It...

Did a road trip of Eastern Canada. Here's a pic just before starting the Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia
