it’s not ideal, but it’s also a lot better than nothing. The biggest problem is coverage is on a State and County level, this severely restricts the ability to spread the risk over a large population and reduce premiums. In our case in Prescott our county only offers expensive coverage through...

Even at $12 or $13 an hour doesn’t cut it, people are still living paycheck to paycheck. With rents at and over $1.00 per square ft, food, fuel, and a couple of beers it’s all gone. If you have a medical issue it can sink you even if you have insurance, which most do not. It’s just not...

Very interesting perspective, a little depressing but interesting. I have heard this before, I think I’ve heard it every decade since the 80’s, but with every improvement in automation it becomes a little more realistic. You have to ask yourself if everything is automated what would people do...

low labor rates certainly help the bottom line, the issue is that we need skilled employees to perform the complex tasks involved in builds, and holding onto these employees is difficult when they can transfer their skills over to other industries that pay more and offer benefits. Training...

It’s Incredibly unfortunate that wages have not kept up with inflation and so many of our workers are living pay check to pay check just to survive. They have no retirement beyond Social Security, and that is close to default, they have no healthcare, and they have no savings. Our rational...

I’m going to state something many of you may not particularly like, it’s a personal statement from me and it’s based on my 20 years of overlanding manufacturing experience. North American customers have not got their heads around the cost involved in building their products. For a manufacturer...

All of the stock has long gone.

It appears that the contents of Marc’s page have been amended.

I think many of us have done things after we had a few drinks that we later regretted. The thing to do is correct the state of affairs when you are sober.

I have worked with Eezi Awn for about 15 years and have only had great experiences with their tents. We had a handful of issues with tents over the years, nothing major, and all the problems were fixed immediately by Paul May at Equipt1. Paul is the US importer. I have also known Jess the owner...

I find Marc’s document quite puzzling, he doesn’t and hasn’t worked for AT in any capacity and the document says he has worked for us as a contract employee since July. The document looks like a standard experience resume from someone who is seeking employment, yet he mentions nothing about...

AT has campers available for the Gladiator, you can choose from the Habitat or Summit, the Atlas will be available soon.

I couldn’t find the original quote to review it but, you can use waterbased seam sealer on the seams, Gearaid makes a good sealer. Solvent based sealers will degrade the waterproofing in the material. You should start out by checking to make sure the tent material isn’t stretched too tight on...

100% cycle duty is good but I think you will be waiting a long time to fill the tires up to 70 psi. The cfm rating for this unit is 1.8cfm at 0 psi. A single compressor like this with a 2.5 gallon air tank would help, but once the air in the tank starts to get depleted I believe things will go...

You can add a furnace to a Habitat or Summit build. The Propex HS2000 fits in very nicely, it has a small foot print, 12.6" long x 6.8" wide x 3.9" tall, and the exhaust and combustion air come in from the outside. Heat output is 6483 BTU at 60 C.F.M. and power consumption is 1.9 amp when the...

Just to clarify are you asking about sealing the tent?

All Gen I Tacoma’s are attached by drilling through the bed rail. The mounting only gets complex with the composite beds on the Gen II and Gen III

Finding inserts with a seal isn’t an easy thing to do in North America, they are available in Europe but not so much here. The insert should seal well if it’s put in correctly, and as said a little silicon helps. Try using some neoprene on what ever you are attaching to the inserts, this will...

The load terminals allow you to pull power direct from the controller before it goes to the battery. It’s more efficient than pulling from the battery as some of the energy is lost due to heat in the battery charging process. Most controllers will not provide power to the load terminals until...

Stop by and say hello when you are in Prescott.
