Looks like you picked up a tire table too. It has turned out to be one of our favorite accessories for Beastie so far. Makes cooking and cleanup so much easier. We typically have been storing it on top of the bed surrounded and covered with pillows and spare blankets. Or, it gets lashed in behind the back seat of the 4Runner along with the portable 180 watt solar panel. How are you storing yours?

BTW, I’m lying in bed recuperating from my knee surgery. Seeing your camping pictures helps me get through the convalescence. Thanks! Please post more.

We picked up the tire table at the 2019 NWOR. It is a very handy piece of kit. I used to store it in the bed of the Xventure trailer, but for this first trip with the Mission trailer, I just put it into the bed of the truck. Mark will be bringing a front rack for us to pick up at this year’s NWOR, the tire table might be one of the items I store on it. For solar, I have a 120 watt bug out panel from Overland Solar. It folds up small and takes up hardly any space and is about 7 pounds. I’m going to install an SAE plug under or next to the shire power plug.

I hope you have a speedy recovery from knee surgery. I’m not very good at taking pics, I just need to get better at remembering to at least pull my phone out of my pocket and snap a pic with it. My wife is the main user of our SLR, but she forgets to take pics too.
How about a pic or 2 of my wife’s 4Runner?

Our red arc is capable of charging the house battery off the tow vehicle

Capable yes, but without a dedicated large-gauge wire to the tow-vehicle you will not get much power from it.

This is wonderful news. I can’t convince Nanc that a trip to Alaska is in the cards...yet.

is there going to be a Mission Overland group get together at NWOR this year.

Our red arc is capable of charging the house battery off the tow vehicle

With the current wiring or do I need to wire that circuit up ?

 

[mep1811]

As well the red arc has a solar charger built right into the unit, our trailers are solar ready

So there is an external plug for solar connected to the Redarc ?

 

[Piophan]

It is an option for sure

Awesome news about the bunk! Mark do you have dimensions of the bunk and pictures or a mock up so I can visualize how they mount?
