I've towed my G12 about 3000 miles including over Rabbit Ears pass with a Ford Ranger. Plenty of forest service roads including one that was particularly nasty. No issues whatsoever. Of course, mpg goes down.

The Summit's kitchen does not have a pantry. I much prefer the G12 and EOS kitchen. Also, I didn't care for the Summit's door. Too hard for me to close. BTW, I have dealt with both Arkto and Boreas personally and can only say great things about both companies and the people that run them.

Great options for sure. All have pluses and minuses. I would have probably bought a Karavan but I really don't care for the driver side door though for some/many, it doesn't matter to them. I have slept in the G12 with the roof down.

An inverter is an option now. I have one. If you want/need a cold weather package, the G12 can have one as I do. The G12 has rooftop solar if one opts for that. No need to deal with portable solar. Suggest taking a close look at the kitchen in the MO Summit and compare it to the G12...

One other consideration is that the Arkto will fit in an 8' garage. That ultimately made the decision between these two. To be clear, I am a fan of Boreas. 400w solar on the Arkto is more than enough.

My G12 was one of the early 2023 models and didn't have a rooftop solar option. So our shakedown trip was in part to drive to Arkto's shop where they installed 400w solar. Works like a charm, clean install which is typical for Arkto. Plan to have it out next week. Current Arkto's can have...

-Yes, I use the 7 pin. -The brake controller is an aftermarket Redarc sold by Ford since the current Ranger's don't have it factory installed. I don't believe the 7 pin is fluctuating. -Arkto lists the tongue weight at 397 lbs. and I suspect mine is around that. No issues towing except for...

Pretty funny...I just came on to provide an update on last week's adventure high in the Rockies. This photo was taken at a dispersed campsite on top of one of the passes. Drifter...yes, the forest service road I was on here was pretty rutted and washed out due to the rain. I tow with a Ford...

100%. This is much much more comfortable. Keep us posted.

I am literally lying down in my Arkto waiting out a rain storm in the mountains. It’s a fantastic camper. Totally happy with it and I hope you will be as well.

Agree. I'll have mine out next week again. OP-B&B can custom order however you want it I believe.

Have you thought about purchasing from B&B RV in Denver? They might offer a finance option.

There is a FB group.

Grea Great to hear this!

Looks awesome Obsessed.

It would be tight and most probably wouldn't do it. The only time to take the top down is perhaps severe weather (rare really, not just some rain) or when one wanted to experiment as I was doing.

Yes and yes.

One of the many reasons that Arkto appealed to me was to be able to sleep with the top down. Have to stoop over a bit to get around but I/we don't live in it except for bad weather or sleep. Some of the advantages to a hybrid camper is the potential to garage it (we do) and to sleep with the...

Thanks Obsessed. I can't even imagine what that was like with the wheel coming off. Hope I never experience something like that.
