    @StOrMyThEtAcO probably just call anyone that sells RTTs: CVT, Tepui, goose gear, TAV, etc.

    @90yota Bythe time I got up there it was sunny, and pretty loose, finally was a bit emptier than the past few weeks though. Any day it wants to dump 10 feet that’d be great

    I didn't bother bringing my skis from Montana. I've been in Truckee the last 2 weeks and considered camping in the RTT. Lol did the Rubicon instead though.

    Rubicon was mainly dry but the shaded areas were all ice and some of the puddles were interesting getting through.

    How’s the rubicon? I’ve never done it. If I’ve got the time off I can always find an excuse to rack out in the tent. How long are you in Truckee for.

    It's awesome it was my first time up there. Kinda sad cuz I grew up in Truckee and never had a rig to go. I leave tomorrow unfortunately. I miss this place. I wouldn't attempt it without full skids, sliders and lots of recovery gear. I high centered a few times. At the lookout would be an awesome camping spot.

    I gotta get back up there. My cousin is building a new rig this year too. I grew up in Carson City and was just up there, had lunch in Truckee actually. Miss that whole area. Crazy how much Truckee has blown up

    I stripped one of the brackets on mine, so I ended up JB welding all of the bolts to the brackets and haven't had any problems since.

    I needed a zipper to remove/install the back window on my convertible. A marine shop was able to pull the right one out of a box of zipper pulls & get me set.

    Do you have the cross straps? They mostly suck the fabric all in for you if you attach them before closing.
