Awesome! We hope to make it to NFL in about 7-9 days. So that would put us there around the first week of September. My last name is Hillier and my grandparents were from there. Grandma was from northern Nfl and gramps was from south Nfl. They are both passed now, may they rest in peace. But I've never been to Nfl nor met any other family from there. So I'm going to get the 2 phone numbers my mom has and look up long lost family lol. Should be fun! my good friend also just moved to Fogo so we will be going to visit him aswell.
It's been a dream of mine for a long time to visit where my family is from. I'm very excited and really looking forward to exploring Nfl in our jeep!

Need to build a platform with the rear seat folded down for all our gear and to mount the kitchen. Also to get the kitchen high enough to clear the rear hatch lower sill

Looks good. I would add at least two more gutter mounts for the roof rack. So the gutter doesn't bend

Ya that's the plan when I build my full roof rack. 3 maybe 4 on each side to help distribute weight. These were just to get the tent up there and start using it lol
