    Anti-condensation mat?

    Correct. Airflow is key.

    Anti-condensation mat?

    Moisture getting in the mattress or just condensation on the floor? The mats don’t eliminate the moisture but they are designed to keep it out of the mattress. Still normal to have moisture inside the tent and on the floor. That’s just what happens when you have warmer temperatures inside the...

    Would I be stupid to consider this trade?

    Definitely would only make the trade if there was significant cash in addition to the trade. Even then (if it were me) I'd take the cash portion of the trade and combine it with more cash from selling the traded 4Runner and put it towards something that's the equivalent or better than the LX...

    Anti-condensation mat?

    Here's some examples of common DIY attempts at AC mats that are not effective. None of these will give any real airflow to create a moisture barrier between the floor and mattress and as a result won't really reduce the condensation and keep the moisture out of the mattress which is what will...

    Anti-condensation mat?

    This won't work very well. It doesn't allow any real air flow between the mattress and the floor and since it's porous and a doft material it will hold moisture and develop mildew. This will actually be worse than using nothing IMO. Something like Dynamat can work for insulation but it won't...

    Anti-condensation mat?

    You can see the thickness of the Tepui mats in the photo I posted. It's roughly 1/2" thick.

    Anti-condensation mat?

    Well done. That's a better discount at the moment. FYI, after the current accessory sale ends my 10% is still valid for forum members.

FWIW, Tepui anti-condensation mats are the best on the market based on my experience. Effective and easily the most...

    Awnings - Driver or Passenger side mounted?

    Maybe that's my problem, I avoid established campsites at all costs. Carry on.

    Awnings - Driver or Passenger side mounted?

    I've found I prefer to open my tent to the passenger side so the awning is on the driverside. It's also more convenient for me when traveling solo since I naturally access the truck from the driverside more often. Eliminates the need to walk around to the opposite side of the truck so much...

    Box Rocket 1995 FZJ80 Build

    But the 3F powered 80's are typically not the preferred model. The later model ('93-97) have the 1FZ motor that has more power and is much better suited to the weight of the 80, although they are still no racecar. My point being that with the LR having a V8 you would expect better power. I...

    Box Rocket 1995 FZJ80 Build

    That’s a loaded question. Having owned both I personally think the 80 is better than the Disco in just about every way except for the drivers seating position and the seats themselves. Even though the Disco has a V8 there’s not a big difference in power and there’s no comparison in terms of...

    Box Rocket 1995 FZJ80 Build

    Yeah, I haven’t noticed much difference with or without lights. If you look back a few posts you’ll see I’ve had 3 lights on the front bumper for a long time. I’ve removed the center light now to allow more air to directly hit the grill/radiator. Not much change. As I mentioned earlier, in...

    Box Rocket 1995 FZJ80 Build

    If you read what I described there will be vents to let hot air escape too. Just haven't finished that part of it yet. Also FWIW, I don't have any aftermarket skid plates, never have in 20 years of wheeling an 80 so the underside is pretty open and isn't keeping heat in.
