Yeah a 4wc was a serious contender, but i ultimately chose to go a route that allowed us to set up basecamp and go explore in the truck

If you're not worried about security, I love it.

Its hard to really compare reliability of a tundra/tacoma and full size diesels. Diesels are built for performance, and a lot more is expected of them. What is more impressive? A tundra daily driven to work for a million miles or a 5.9/7.3/6.7 diesel truck that has a half million miles pulling...

My thermostat works as expected

I did the same thing. Had a shell and RTT on my diesel but hated that it kind of limits your truck to a 1 trick pony. Thought long and hard about a GFC or 4wc, ended up with a trailer i can park in the garage and keep loaded ready to go. I go from normal pickup to overland machine in about 30...

Yes the seats absolutely rock! I didn't think i needed a new truck until my ass felt those seats

You're also getting the gearing and lockers in the power wagon.

I just read you can order the power wagon in that color now. Additional $100 was what i read.

I believe what you're referring to is the interior flooring, not the floor structure. It is likely a plywood floor with that laminate on top for looks

Glad to see he added the aluminum skin. The one i saw without it blew my mind. And yes marine grade birch is very typical in the RV world and will likely last as long as you need it. Properly sealed of course.

It was at Big Sky. I did not let him know, doesn't seem like my place to do so. Im not sure what other wood free manufacturers are using, but Boreas uses a Honeycomb aluminum. Are you sure? What is your floor made of? Seems unlikely to build the first one out of something else then switch to...

I wont argue that the interior space in the mission is nice, but it didn't seem like enough space to be really useful. Also, you can sit up in a a Boreas and im assuming an off grid based on their dimensions.

I've mentioned a couple times i ended up with the boreas. The mission i looked at at the dealer where i purchased was in terrible condition. Not only flooring peeling up, but exposed bolt heads on the floor too.

You can get RV financing on boreas also. Boreas is also sold at RV dealers. Though it doesnt appear there is any current inventory available. Aa far as one being nicer then the other, thats a personal opinion. I compared both the mission and the boreas side by side with a $30k check in hand. I...

It was a concern for me too. So far it has been a non issue but i do bring two collapsable 5g containers just in case i need to fill up somewhere.

The boreas xt12 Tetonx hybrid

Check out the off grid owners group on Facebook, good spot to read up on any issues they experience. I have a Boreas. Other then a screw on the stove working lose and a bolt on the roof rack working lose, no issues.

Oh nice! When we were tent/RTT camping we typically had our sleeping bags or double bag, a wool blanket to go over top of us if needed, and a spare rumpl for each of us. The nice part with the rumpl is you can use it as a pillow or stuff it up by your face to help keep your head warm lol.

The Teton Mammoth is a fairly inexpensive double and it is insanely warm

Boreas mxt with a motorcycle rack on the rear hitch and the tongue! I think the rear hitch is good for like 350# bike
