Well, after seeing that, @Todd n Natalie please show him the pic of the raptor or at least a four door bronco.

I'm not living in SoCal anymore and the infrastructure just isn't here yet. Plus parking garages aren't nearly as ubiquitous here.

If a car has to go, it's that one. I do like it though. Good car, EVs are going to be so damn common when people get over the range anxiety when their commute is 30 miles. It's such a good little appliance.

For sure. They could work for a lot of people. I'm not against them. They just won't work for us at this time.
Most of our camping 300 kms away or so. So, don't think most trucks would get us there while towing.

What's wrong with the 2 door @badm0t0rfinger posted?

I like the 2 doors. Mine would be a little more retro styled....

I do not like the heritage editions.

Too short and stubby. Hate the look. To each their own though.

Beats me? I google imaged hot pepper red Bronco Raptor? I think hot pepper red is quite orangy?

This is Hot Pepper red on an F150 for comparison:

I REALLY like your setup.

I REALLY like your setup.

Thank you. I really appreciate it. I'm still working out the quirks but it's getting there.

 

[badm0t0rfinger]

@Kingsize24 the thing I'm learning now that I'm using more RV sites for camping is the awning on the drivers side is the wrong side for these back into spots. It was perfect for when I was at Fiesta Island and sitting on the beach, and works just fine for primitive camping and going out to the field. I'm not sure how quickly I will make that change since the awning I have is directional and that would be admitting a 600 or so dollar mistake, but since most campgrounds in Florida (although I was in Alabama this weekend) seem to be catering towards RVs I think it may be a job I do early next year. I'm trying to get as much camping in as I can since with my setup its definitely a fall/winter activity.

 

[Kingsize24]

Yes I can see that. But if you back into most sites, your power/water should be on the driver side. Ideally with your setup that would be fine. I did the same with our trailer since I back into everything.
