I got my first flat in a really really long time (2" gash through the tread of General APT SL stock tires with 18k miles) on a gravel shelf road at night a few days ago. Managed to get it sealed well enough with a few tire plugs and aired up with the Napa twin compressor. Worked really well and...
Looks like a good option for my likely next tire in a 285/75r17 but I cannot find anyone anywhere with it in stock or even listed other than on the Nokian site.

These are the overhead lights I am running. 2 of them is the perfect amount of light and the color temp is...
Solar installation is done. Running 275w total to a Renogy Dual Input 30A charge controller connected to a 144Ah home brew Lifepo4 pack. Should keep the electronics charged and the dometic 55im chilly full time.
Been messing around with thoughts on a covering for my 1/2" xps over the studs/polyiso. Originally was going to go coroplast but my wife didn't like the look. Then was going to go with 5mm plywood but attaching was going to be a bit more involved. Decided to try out some self adhesive carpet...
I would get a GX460 before I would get a 4runner. They are similar price but the GX is much much nicer. I loved mine for what it was but I won't go back to not having a truck.
I built a vented to the outside propane locker for two 5lb tanks on the storage box (little box on top of bigger one). I needed it to stay narrow as a fullsize is wide enough. Hose stays disconnected except during use. Similar set up to what folks use on boats.
AF cabover is the cnc bent 1 piece (newer design option). I just crawl up in the bed to raise/drop the front while the rear is up. I can do it with out climbing up just standing in the back of the truck bed but it takes a bit more effort and I would need to build an extension for the locking arm.
For anyone else with the AF or standard bed height it's super easy to raise and lower the camper with the bed fully deployed. With my bed length it leaves plenty of room down below and means no moving of any bedding.
Also built a seat/storage/vented propane locker that bolts to the OEM utilitrack side/floor rails. Eventually I will redo this out of 80/20 but I wanted to try out the size and location. Propane locker vents to the outside via 2x 1/2" ID tubing to 2 existing holes in the bedside and down to the...
