    Ahh thanks. Yes, not having the IR emitters is a downside. Was thinking I'd install a rear LED light on one of the open switches. All things considered, the Garmin option will probably end up costing me 3 times as much, but I was considering one anyways for the navigation. Maybe I'll shop...

    Mike, what did you end up installing for your rear camera? I have the wife asking for something similiar for late night peeing excursions. I have been considering purchasing the Garmin Overlander tablet anyway and thought I could also install one of their backup cameras. I'm not sure if it...

    I got it winterized successfully (I think). We will see if anything froze when I fill it back up in a couple weeks. First time, de-winterizing it. Thanks for the heads up on the bleach. I was about to use bleach! I'll have to pick up some ethanol disinfectant. Thx

    I finally got around to installing this Topargee water meter. Varying standards of threads made this install way harder than it needed to be. I ended up sourcing G thread female to NPT male adapters on Amazon. Connected those to 2 x 1/2 inch Sharkbites to match the 1/2 inch PEX. It's still...

    It's my first time coming out of winter and I'm wondering the same thing. Do the lines and tank need to be flushed and disinfected before use? If so, what are people using for disinfectant?

    ^ Good idea, but my truck mats are always dirtier than the bare ground.

    I wouldn't worry too much if the temp is only dropping below freezing for a few hours. The Truma Combi furnace is in the same compartment as all water lines. Even being on a low setting should be enough to keep the water lines from freezing.

    Request? My trailer is in winter storage right now and I won't have access to it until next week. I want to order a 200ah lithium battery that is on sale, but it is 21 inches in length and I am not sure how much space is in the battery/fridge box on the trailer. If anyone has easy access to...

    If that's the scenario, absolutely! Sleeping with the top down is totally doable. It would be perfectly comfortable if the alternative is being too cold.

    That would be incredibly heavy and inefficient IMO. For the price of a RTT, you could buy a sweet ground camp setup (for guests) and transport it on the roof rack of the Summit.

    Well done. I have to do something like that before next spring. My kid is in the bunks and he gets a bit cold some nights.

    Awesome. Thank you. We are very similiar aside from the solar panels (40lbs) the camp chairs (30lbs) and one folding table (15lbs). It's nice to know we have some room before the maximum load (3500) is reached.

    I too am curious about the weight stats. I'm using an F150, so it's not about capacity, I am just curious by nature. I'd try contacting Mission Overland/ Mark directly through Facebook or their website. He might give you some insight.
