    I really don’t care if most people post save and post them, but there is a couple people that I do get kinda upset about.

    If they crop it out they just won’t get any of my stuff anymore.

    @Blackdawg or anyone with a DC. Think you are the only other one in here though.

    Do you have this connector on your DC? I can't find it listed in the wiring diagram.

    Drivers side firewall harness.

    The Diesel fuel filter will sit there and has a heater on it to keep the Diesel from gel'ing. Strangely enough it's the exact same plug as that requires. Handy for me, but strange they don't list it in the diagrams.

    Yes im almost positive I have that. Found it digging around there once i think by my headlight though not by the firewall.. No idea wtf its supposed to be.

    I'll look later after work.

    Did you take a meter to it? Looks likely its just power and ground..

    Traced it as far as I can at the moment. Ground goes to where the top bolt of the fuse box hits the fender by the battery. Positive goes into the cab then up behind the cluster. Haven't been able to locate that yet the rest of the way, it's hard to see in there

    Ah yeah that's the one I'm thinking of.

    Hmm if it goes into the cab I wonder if it's ignition powered then. Could be perfect for you if that's the case

    That's the same plug my fog lights use I'm pretty sure. I know different gen but maybe a lighting connection

    I'll look into that, I noticed it has a fog fuse too so maybe it's just wired in so they don't have a bunch of different harnesses. Thanks :cheers:

    Hey guys just moved to the Casper area and starting to look for people to go wheeling with. Right now I'm driving a '15 double cab with a TRD supercharger and 3" lift with 33s so nothing super capable but its a work in progress.

    What’s the word on Tepui Rtts?
    Be a lot easier to have up here then finding a place for my camper.
    Apparently Sportsmen’s sells them, which means I get a discount.

    Internet reviews seem decent.





    Sorry for asking questions here, I just trust your guys opinion more than the average person viewing either 1st gen thread.

    Nothing wrong with them. Still a nice tent. Not sure what their prices are anymore though. But in general most RTT prices have sky rocketed in the last 4 years.

    yeah same here. Bobby is great. What has won me over as well. Tepui has a lot of dealers now so your experience can vary a lot I'd guess.

    No idea. but the markup has gone up a lot. The original Bachelor tent from CVT(standard RTT setup) was only like 1000 new I think.

    Watch for Backcountry's 20% off one item deal. Call them up, put your Tepui on order and then tell them you are picking it up from their warehouse in West Valley. Tis what I did with my Explorer Series Kukenam ($1425.00) paid just over $1200 after taxes. Freight would have been another $150 or $200 I think it was.

    I have heard that REI does a similar deal, but I don't have specific experience with them.

    Right now you can get the CVT Mt. Rainer Extended overhang for $1,535 on sale from $2,195 on their website as long as you can deal with having it in burgundy.
