    This website is the passion-project of a USMC veteran/mechanic, @Tyler.

Currently building a trailer similar to the Patriot Trailers TH470. Trailer will keep tent mounted, dirt bike storage below. Infront of the bulkhead i'll have additional power and likely move the fridge. Suspension is Timbren SAS independent axleless.​
I think thats it for all the shit i've wasted money on.​

Wait, you dont have 37 duffel bags strapped to it or red wheels?













Un subd and reported

Yeah like, Diet Coke on the tailgate, no Trasharoo over the spare, no Pelican cases and Maxtrax and Rotopax bungeed all over the fuckin roof racks, no carpet dash cover with every patch Violent Little Machine Shop ever stitched stuck to it, and who the fuck uses a Hi-Lift any more? Clearly you don't overland. Or underland. You don't even have an e-bike. Poser.
 
How do you like the shell over the bestop?
they don’t exist on the same time space continuum.

lol i totally read that wrong. the soft top was nice when you needed to take it off like i did with dirtbikes. unless budget won’t allow and you need to remove it every weekend there is no real comparison.
 
Are the Bestops still secured solely with velcro in the front and the clamps on the side?

I had one of them on my long bed 2nd Gen, and after a while the Velcro strip on the front got dirty and failed on the highway at 80 MPH allowing a bunch of air to suddenly fill up the topper like a fucking parachute. It literally exploded off the back of the truck. It blew off into traffic, fucked up the bed rails and bed caps as it ripped free, barfed my camping gear all over the I-17, and obviously killed itself in the process.

10/10 would never buy again.

Dear sweet baby Jesus that sound alike a bad day. I'd be freaking pissed.

That same day I also got a flat and the night before some drunken idiot with a death wish pulled into the middle of our camp threatening to have us arrested and took a thousand pictures of us, our license plates, our guns, etc. while screaming about how un-safe guns are... meanwhile he was clearly drunk as fuck and driving, romped his POS Chevy straight through the middle of someone else's campsite without warning, and was threatening four people while they were shooting... It was a doozy.

Okay yeah, that's about the most fucked up day ever.
 
What's with the personality disorder. Is this a white truck or a grey truck?
 
#neversatisfied. trucks white. i wrapped it a little while back.
And it will likely get wrapped again. And again after that. I say next time you wrap it in velcro and molle, that way you can have all the Bluerudge doohickies and trinkets
