    And on the griddle subject..

    I have a small grill pan I pair with a sauce pan. It's a perfect combo for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Also easy to clean up..

    Breakfast I use the grill pan as a toaster for bagels or even like a panini press for a breakfast burrito. Eggs in the sauce pan obviously. Those larger flat pan/griddle limits your cooking options.

    I have a hard time believing that. That's probably under PERFECT conditions which are hard to replicate in the real world.
    The one in the links on the bottom. I got it for $1199 and got a free anti condensation mat thrown in.

    Got the platform thing all finished up. Overall I'm very happy with it! I'll probably pull my back trying to get the tire out, but it should come out.

    The drawer isn't on slides or anything, and when loaded with tools it's heavy as fuck. I'll probably get slides at some point. I did put handles in the back of it so the whole thing can be lifted out if needed for some reason.

    I don't subscribe to needing bed stiffeners. So many people have ran top heavy set ups for so long and they're fine, with maybe a couple cases of cracked bed sides. I'm not worried about it.

    Edit: I do believe I could still run them though with a few modifications.

    I have an anti-condensation mat that came with mine. You wouldn't think you'd need it but anytime there is any sort of humidity you could be sleeping on a wet mattress.

    I'm jealous. I definitely want this now. Does it cause any noticeable sag in the rear end?

    Oh definitely. It caused the ass to drop an inch or two, which is why I'm buying davids dakars in a week or so.

    Damn...guess I'll have to wait then. Can't afford any more weight. I'll be right at level when I put my 885s on so I'll be sagging again if I make that. #brolean

    Yeah between the wood, tools, spare tire, gas can, shell and rack, Im around 450 lbs in the bed or so, then I'll be adding the 130 lb RTT. So I definitely need new springs. Stock ones with an AAL are handling it decently well, but won't last long at this rate.

    Then add a high clearance eventually! She's heavy as fuck! Then there's also all the armor and soon to be winch. I'm one heavy bitch.

    I really am! So far it's not too bad since I'm a manual and running 255s, but a regear will happen eventually. I'll also lock the rear at that point.

    I just got the basic $300 smittybilt 9.5k winch. Nothing fancy, but it'll get the job done.
