For anyone to answer: Are the roofs made for wear and tear? The reason I ask is that unless the roof can take wear and tear there is no rail to secure boxes, bags etc to. Just to tie them down but no lateral securing points. Any replies would be great.

Doesn't Get Out Enough
Back on Page 13 I was asking how the roof was finished (bare/painted) and MrOffshore (Rich w/IntechRV) said the roof is bare finish aluminum sheet, .024 thickness - http://forum.expeditionportal.com/threads/164573-Intech-RV?p=2334469#post2334469

Last spring I purchased my trailer and was very unhappy with the tire fender clearance. Intech supplied a dexter lift kit and new fender marker lights which the tires had punched out and after a summer of selling, buying and moving I finally did the instal and hit the road. Easy instal with two jack stands and two bottle jacks it took 2+ hours, with the right tools it could be done in an hour plus. We left southern AZ and headed for OR to fish with friends. We went up Hwy 395 on the eastern side of the Sierra mtns with its many side roads, on Carson Pass while dressed like someone from AZ ,sandals shorts and tee, it snowed on us. Bottom line the trailer is doing everything I expected when I bought it, if only I could figure out how to send pictures. Mike

Anybody figured out a good cover that fits the Max Flyer Plus? Mine sits outside and would love to cover it up when I can't be out using it.

I'm terrible at followup on this forum...it doesn't help that we just had our biggest dealer event and it has kept me tied up. We do not offer any custom builds, so we are unable to lengthen the box. The standard MAX Flyer PLUS (now called an Explore) is braced and wired for TWO MaxxAir roof vents...one of the locations is also wired for 120V for the A/C, so if you were not getting the A/C, you could opt for the second MaxxAir roof vent. We try to keep as much off the tongue and as far back as possible to reduce the tongue weight which is increased by the front kitchen. A lot of our customer "boondock" without power, but the majority are still in parks with shore power or carrying a generator. A portable Mr Heater propane heater is very easy to set up in the camper for extra or quick heat without shore power or a generator. Thanks!

We offer either awning for the XLT (now called a Chase).

you might want to go to Costco or Sams Club, they often have large car covers for $29...if needed, you could get two of them and sew them together...a few straps holding it down would keep it stabilized from wind, etc. A small RV cover would work as well, but might not be as affordable.

I️ see the updates changed the names, but is the Pursue available without the kitchen so you can just use that area for storage?
I️ went and looked at the Chase and Pursue in SE Texas last week, I️ like them both. I️ would definitely be interested in stepping up a bit in size from the Chase to the Pursue but I’m not quite sold on needing a fridge and stove.
Rick- if you're still watching this thread I was wondering if a maxair fan could be added to an Explore after it was built? There's one I'm looking at that had the AC unit but I think I'd like the fan too. Think I read they're pre-wired.
Saw one this week and I'm very impressed and interested.

We were looking to pull the trigger on a 2018 Chase but reading that the Pursue is, or is going to be, available without the kitchen addition I've put it on hold until I can be positive if this is correct.
Extra length with the battery off the toung would be just the push I need to get one bought.
So has this happened yet or is it going to happen?
Thanks

I was going to locate the Intec thread and here it is. We the ROF's got off the Camino del Diablo yesterday and my Flyer Max did really well except for the AC falling off the remainder held up to a very good test. I don't know if the AC bolts were not tight enough to start with or lots of rough road caused the problem but ratchet straps kept it on the roof because the original mounting bolts were badly bent. I'm going to take it off and replace it with a vent when I get home. I never go anywhere with hook ups any way. Mike

I posted that I ran Camino del Diablo with the ROF. For those that don't know the Camino is a hundred miles plus of very rough 4wd required road between Yuma and Ajo AZ. The fact the trailer only lost the AC is a testament to what a tough little trailer it is. The road is often within sight of the MX border and very remote the only travelers we saw were many border patrol trucks and two Border Patrol Helicopters that buzzed us to check us out. I pulled the trailer with a Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk which did an excellent job, I had a Wrangler when I bought it. Mike
