    What do you guys have in your Tacoma Camping kits? I have been hunting and fishing my entire life and am in the Military having deployed three times so pooping in the middle of the woods isn’t a issue. However, My wife is very anti-outdoors, and I finally weened her into the idea of camping out of the truck. After last years hurricane I ended up stocking a ton of Bug Out supplies but those were for survival rather than comfort.

    So far I’ve got:
    Napier Spots Truck Bed Tent
    Intex Twin Air Mattress
    Gas One propane/Butune Single Burner
    Tanburo Micro Cookware set
    Jet Boil W/Coffee Press
    Thermacell Latern
    Medium Igloo Ice Chest
    Two Small Igloo Ice Chests
    3 O2 10” Battery Fans
    Wise Owl Hammock w/Straps
    Marpat Tarp for an Awning
    USMC E-Tool
    Humongous Mosquito Net
    1st Aid Kit
    Survival Kit


    I also have wag-bags and baby wipes but I don’t think she’d like that very much haha

    What do you dudes bring out for the little lady when you guy camp?

    Don’t forget extra batteries for everything electronic that you pack out.

    I pack out pretty much everything I’d take on a field op. Me and the girlfriend go simple with most things when camping. We splurged on a Yeti cooler though lol

    I take a small toddler training potty for the wife and daughter. I set it up in the bed of the truck (I have a Softopper, so it's enclosed) and they go to the bathroom there. We put plastic grocery bags in the bottom and toss in a couple paper towels to soak up the liquid. Makes clean up and disposal easy.

    I like that idea, I saw a hitch shitter that mounts a paint bucket and laughed bc it’d be "shitty” to keep that thing around haha

    When I was in Djibouti we went out scuba diving and the water was HORRIBLY dirty, thankfully we had a “pressure shower” to rinse off after. I’m thinking about getting one because last deployment the water went Out numerous times which really sucked considering how hot it was. My question is what do you guys use when baby wipes aren’t enough?

    This is the type we used out in Africa. It was awesome and very light weight BUT expensive.

    I've been hunting for a Roof Top Tent for under $650, yesterday on Amazon for only about 40mins, amazon warehouse had a Smittybilt for $551 and two day shipping, I slept on it too long debating on what I would do to affordably mount it. I've decided to keep an eye out for an RTT like that and to make some bed mounts like this guy

    ….and I'm such a cheap ass that I'm willing to bet I can make it for under $100! What do you guys think?
