    Best trailer with 2 people and a dog?

    The Teton X was our top pick before we found a smoking deal on a Mission Summit. The Teton X still looks really good…

    2006 Ford full of rANGER

    We loved our 2000 Ranger with the 3.0. We bought it pretty cheap with a ton of miles and it loved to eat front end suspension bushings.

    Best privacy tent/shower/toilet enclosure? Best compact "toilet" for WAG bags?

    We use one of these because it seems to be a similar size to a regular toilet. It’s good with and without WAG bags, if that’s appropriate for your area. Amazon link

    looking for a simple set up

    All iPads with Cell + WiFi have a GPS chip and don’t require you to have cellular service to utilize the GPS features. iPads with WiFi only don’t have GPS chips but they can connect to GPS pucks (like Dual, Hummingbird, etc.) via Bluetooth. My first foray into this kind of navigation tool was...

    What Clam Shell Style Campers Still Available

    Good point. Skinny Guy Campers makes an option for a truck bed, but not in a trailer form factor.

    Gladiator Pop-Up Pass Through Camper Build

    Unsolicited advice warning… My first Chinese one was DOA, so plan to get it running at home before you need it out there. The Chinese heaters also have some quirks/features that can be frustrating or greatly beneficial, there’s a Facebook group that can help out a lot if you run into those.

    You used the warranty claim on the website? They’ve helped me out with two items over the last few months.

    Gladiator Pop-Up Pass Through Camper Build

    Unfortunately no. The heater is bolted to the aluminum plate, then the aluminum plate was attached to the truck bed in place of the factory cubby. Any hole in your bed that can accommodate the combustion intake/exhaust and fuel line is a potential option. (Not my truck/pic)

    Gladiator Pop-Up Pass Through Camper Build

    That’s a great use of the dead space in the bed. I did similar, but mounted the heater inside the bed on the driver side cubby. The fuel pump and combustion air intake & exhaust were in the dead space of the bed.

    Gladiator Pop-Up Pass Through Camper Build

    Diesel heaters are fantastic. The only negative is dealing with the diesel, IMO. If you’re interested in an Eberspacher + 6gal tank, I just removed one from our Tacoma and haven’t listed for sale yet. The 6gal tank size was great so that we only had to fill from the pump and never from jerry...

    Chinese Hydronic Heater Troubleshooting Resources?

    I’m sorry, I don’t have any advice for you, but have you inquired with the Chinese desire heater group on Facebook? They have a wealth of information over there.

    Not very safe buying things here

    I also almost jumped on this one. Glad I wasn’t sure if I’d actually used it and waited. Sorry the OP got burned. FYI, Venmo does now offer buyer protection for goods and services, similar to PayPal. It’s a box you check when you’re about to pay.

    I’m not sure when it happened, but I had a nice experience with their customer service. The new owner is Mackow Industries in Winnipeg. If you look them up, they seem quite proud to have the Mission Overland brand/manufacturing under their umbrella.

    ITTOG's Truck Camper Build (was 6' x 12' Trailer Conversion)

    There’s a special place in hell for people that glue carpet to the inside of boats. Think long and hard before you put that stuff on your walls or ceiling. 😁

    Best deals on 100ah LiFeP04 batteries?

    I’ve had the 100Ah non-heated SOK battery for just over 2 years with no issues and just ordered their new 280Ah heated Bluetooth battery. Seems like a great deal for good quality and serviceability. 7yr warranty too. Some other retailers (like Current Connected and others) offer an extended 10yr...

    Folding saw

    I carry a much small hatchet/hammer thing I found in my grandfather’s shed when he passed that’s only really good for small firewood. I definitely second (third? fourth?) the Silky Big Boy.
