    Alumline

    I've had an Alumline flatbed since 2018. No real issues with it. Their customer service was terrible as was their attention to detail so be warned.

    Supertramp Flagship HT Hard-sided Slide-in Pickup Camper

    Supertramp Flagship HT Hard-sided Slide-in Pickup Camper

    Thanks much for the detailed look. You also answered my questions about the height dealing with windy driving conditions. The only dealbreaker for me is east-west sleeping. Not sure why manufacturers go that direction and after having 2 campers with north-south, not sure I could switch. And...

    2021 RAM 3500 Tradesman | AEV Prospector | FWC Grandby

    I had a similar experience but in Anza Borrego State Park. A rock cut a deep slash in a sidewall miles from pavement and after getting it changed, I limped to an area with cell coverage and found the nearest Discount Tire (where I buy all my tires). My spare was adequate but I feared it would...

    Jackery Combo Selling Now at Huge Discount

    I ran my National Luna Weekender for 4 days off a Jackery 1000 (first gen) and it dropped to about 30%. I spoke with some van builders recently who have switched from traditional batteries (including Lithium) to the larger Jackery like generators to power everything. Less wiring and greater...

    Thoughts on overall height of your set up. How tall is too tall for the backcountry?

    In many, many miles of off road, off camber and uneven surfaces, the camper has never hit the roof of the truck cab. When having the camper built, we intentionally kept the gap as small as possible -- and succeeded.

    Thoughts on overall height of your set up. How tall is too tall for the backcountry?

    Actually, that’s my truck and camper. The drawer under the flatbed raises the camper a few inches.

    Thoughts on overall height of your set up. How tall is too tall for the backcountry?

    I've got a Bundutec Odyssey pop up on a flatbed and height is just under 10 feet. Neither Hole in the Rock or White Rim were a problem.

    Thoughts on Full-Size overland build? 2018 Ram Power Wagon 68k miles

    Figure out what type of trails you'll run and how often and buy or build a vehicle to suit your needs. That powerWagon certainly looks great and the modifications are first class for the most part, but are they appropriate for your abilities, strength and goals? For example, I'm almost 70 and...

    1 ton for salt county

    3 decade Minnesota resident here where salt is applied liberally to the roads. Salt works really well above freezing so if you park in a heated garage, the corrosion will happen very quickly. I have a 10 year old Ram 3500 and I take it to car washes regularly to get the undercarriage washed...

    Crossing Borders: Renting Cars for a Family Adventure

    Almost 4. The package including insurance (0 deductible) was cheaper than renting. What the rental car companies don’t tell you is if you pick the car up in one country and drop off in another, the drop off fees can be substantial. Our rental was brand new and trucked to the pickup in France. We...

    Crossing Borders: Renting Cars for a Family Adventure

    Check out Auto Europe. We did a several week trip through Europe and it was cheaper to buy a car thru them and sell it back. Easy process on both ends.
