I ordered the large OVS too. Still vacillating between the Tent Shower and the Portable Privacy Room with Shower.

Use tailgate seals + BedRug. Make sure you order the tailgate hinge gap covering version. I have had no trouble with dust so far. If you don't want the Bedrug, order the tailgate hinge covering gasket. Double up the TG gaskets if needed. I like my F150 tailgate. It's aluminum. I use it with a...

Ha ha! Now I'm leaning towards the large one. I figure that since it's going to reside on a full size pickup, weight is not an issue because I'm way under the GVWR. Somewhere I watched a video of it being demonstrated on a F150 and it looked good. The large one (Nomadic) has about 7 square...

UPDATE The Suaoki G500 didn't work for me because it couldn't handle the starting surge of my refrigerator. My Maxoak 400 handles the surge well and has been very dependable. Presently, the G500 appears to be defunct. The LED shows that it's not taking a charge. I didn't treat it differently...

I decided to follow Expedition Portal's advice and bought the KAMOTO OPENFIRE PIT . https://expeditionportal.com/burning-rings-of-fire/ I haven't used this with charcoal yet but with a bed of kindling it would probably do well. Note the tray beneath it that collects anything that might filter...

I think that the larger of two similarly constructed awnings will provide more surface area for wind to create mischief. You can't have it both ways ie. there's always some compromise. The LT will be easier to deploy especially when its windy, less profile when closed for fuel efficiency...

I'm on the verge of ordering the LT model, left side version. The extra coverage of the larger model is nice but I I'd rather have something that could withstand consistently strong winds and be able to deploy in strong wind. It would be nice to have the squared off rear but it looks as though...

How do like the LT model? I'm vacillating between ordering the Nomadic and the LT. The LT looks like it would hold up better in high winds and be easier to deploy for short stays. The lighter weight and smaller folded up profile are plus points for the LT too.

I have the Suaoki G500. I also have a clone of the Suaoki 400. I have used the 400 on several week long trips and it easily kept my refrigerator charged overnight. I was moving often so I simply kept the 400 plugged in to my starter battery via cigarette lighter plug. I also have 200W of solar...

+solar panel I use this portable unit plus one other similar unit to power my refrigerator, lights, etc. Most of my panels are on the roof of my GFC but I reserve one to move around the campsite for the best sunlight. I simply move one battery with the panel to avoid long a long wiring run. My...

I got 19.1 MPG with my 2018 3.5 EB SCAB 4WD on a trip from Bozman MT to Seattle via Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Stanley Basin with my GFC in the bed. This was hand calculated. The trip included some city driving, open highway @80 MPH, high altitude mountain passes and a little 4WD.

Thanks. I'm doing a slow, moderate build out. Just replaced the 20" rims with 17"s. OEM tires replaced with Cooper AT3 LT 275.

Nice looking truck! I've had both. The six speed and the 10 speed. The 6 speed was a 2017 2.7 EB SCAB 4wd. I had a dispute with the dealership, we it worked out and I was offered a 2018 at a very good price so I took it. Personally I'm not worried about the long term reliability of the 10...

@motoboss I own a 2018 F150 3.5EB 4WD SCAB. It has been faultless. The tranny doesn't slip or hunt. Just smooth as silk. Tell me, have any of those lawsuits been successful? I suspect that many of those problems are software issues. Of course there's going to be a few total failures among the...

I've never heard an instance of outright failure of a 10 speed in a F150. Rough shifting, yes but failure no. I'm sure there must be some failures, somewhere but they certainly must be extremely rare. I do peruse the F150 forums and have yet to see any certified complete failure. The 10 speed...

Nice photo!

I'm mostly concerned with kerosene providing less lubricity than diesel thereby decreasing the longevity of the pump. If it last several years of very moderate service and then fails that will be good enough for me. I'll accept less longevity for cleaner burning.

I'm considering using kerosene and carrying along an extra fuel pump. They're only ~$25.

My 3 KW unit arrived today in a marginally adequate box. Only one dent in the heater housing.:) I think I'll scrap the housing and install the unit as components. It would be very difficult to lead the intake/exhaust tubes otherwise. Hmm...I better bench test it first.
