It's a nice setup, but it takes up too much space.

Not thrashing, rather it was constructive criticism. There's a difference. He had a design problem that needed to be pointed out and those who said so also pointed to a possible solution. This forum wouldn't be much good if all we did was cheer on the sidelines while someone designs in a weakness.

Thanks TexGX.

They haven't said that at all, re-read their posts. Your frame may be salvageable by running the tongue under the frame. See the picture Bob mentioned in his last post.

I am gratified to know that Springbar uses only the best quality cotton, and importing the material from Australia is fine with me, as long as they don't import from China. I am aware of many tents that are either made in China or use material imported from China. One reason why I'm considering...

I hear Jackalope is very good!!

Great pic of the stars, and I love the sun oven.

A wrap for the prevention of desert pinstriping is a good thing.

CATFISH:iagree:

Alaskan Moose, better than beef by far. Having never had Elk, I can't comment but I'm sure it's very good.

So I'm confused. Some on this board will take a $70k landcruiser on the trail but skoff when someone takes their $40k Touareg or Pepper on the trail because???

The early peppers and touaregs were problematic. I have a T2 and except for a minor moonroof leak, have been trouble free. I've taken some very tough trails on a stock steel spring V6 (I've since upgraded the tires) and found it very capable. Now for the disapointments. Those cool pics above...

+1 for you Dendy, it wasn't luck that took you where you are. If you want it go out and work for it. On another note, your AEV is awsome but I love your Conqueror trailer. Where did you get it?

Since the Touareg is a cousin to the Cayenne it too suffers from a lack of aftermarket products for off-road use. It's darn hard enough just to find a decent skid plate. There have been some attempts but it was all custom stuff. Still, it takes me on 99% of the trails I'm interested in, and...

Also do some math and figure the percentage difference between your tires and stock. Multiply the difference to your miles driven for a more accurate number.

I concur the the rest, your lift and tire option is definately taking a toll. Cruise controls are not your best option for maximizing fuel economy. Try it manual and really feather the gas. Anticipate the hill and gain a couple mph and then let it drift back down as you climb. If you have an...

So this truck can be had now fully equipped for around 30K, does anyone have one yet?
