    I would recommend an RTT for this site. There were so many ants... A ground tent would have been overrun.

    Yea that's my plan RTT, but idk if I should go with hard top or soft tops. I'm torn in between, but leaning towards softoppers and custom rack

    I like the look of softoppers, but the security of a camper shell is why I went with one on my Tacoma.

    Still a great axe. I went bigger cause I use It not only for camping but cutting wood for the house too. So longer swing= more power which results in faster splitting time

    Yeah mine is just for camping. Not a lot of need for an axe in downtown LA
    Do you often leave things in back?

    I was going to ask @JeepAndrew to make me one. He lives down in Tucson. Is Jeepers up to the task?

    I had an idea a while back to have a fabricator build a skeleton for a softopper that had 6 tabs going through the top to mount a roof rack to. I thought it would look cool to have a prinsu toprac to match my accessrac. That dream died when I found a hard shell for a steal. Still think it would have been awesome.

    @fishfinder is getting his bedrack canvased. Kind of the same.

    Because I'm a jackass, I won't make it until mid-day Saturday. I didn't realize that Flagstaff was 11+ hours away and I won't be able to leave until Friday morning. I'll stay in Moab on Friday and leave early the next day. Oh well....better late than never. I'll just drink twice as much.

    Just a lot of money for something a shell or bed rack would accomplish. Still would have been unique. I kind of like being a little different. It gets boring when everybody's truck looks the same. I love that there are so many different styles of bumpers and even sliders.

    I have a Pop N Lock on the tailgate, so It's almost impossible to steal big stuff on the the bed with the soft topper.

    There are plenty of uses for a axe In downtown L.A. . No one ever fucks with the guy dragging an axe.
