Alabama thread!

I'm probably not going to do a rooftop tent. I'm a hammock/ground tent kinda guy. I can pack my tent down and put it in a backpack. Don't do a whole lot of car camping, unless the kids are with us. Most of the time, it's humping it on foot through a National Forest somewhere!

I saw a kayak carrier that you put into your hitch. Looks like it's pretty functional, but totally takes away from your departure angle!

 

I've gotten 2 kayaks in the back of my truck before. With the truckbox at that! I criss crossed them and rested the front on the my truckbox, and nose was sticking up above my roof. Bungied them down real good and took off! I only went from Fyffe to Guntersville, but it hauled the kayaks pretty good that way. I want something besides a trailer to haul kayaks though...

 

Probably something I can remove if I want...

 

Probably not. Kayaking is usually a day thing for us. Camping is an overnighter most always.

 

You gotta pic of your kayak hauling setup?

 

A roof rack that sits the same height as the bed rack would be the best solution. Like the prinsu racks @TRD Tyler has

 

Universal permanent and single use permanent are different things. That was my train of thought

 

Im not going to be doing any serious offroading when loaded up with kayaks, if it’s any consolation! Lol

 

That's what I was thinking.

 

If you can’t find a hitch extender that suits you, I can always make one for you to whatever specs you want. Chances are you’ll find something cheaper than what I could build though.

 

Thanks Wes! You gonna ride Saturday?

 

Yep! I’ll be there.

 

My kayaks are the main reason I have mine. Before, I carried two kayaks inside the camper shell with everything strapped and tied down and it was a PITA.

The full roof rack goes well with the shell for carrying things. I carried a queen mattress and box spring on mine the other day.

 

I wonder if crawl control will make it up the boatramp...

 

Sell it! I think RTTs are just a fad that will fade away, while ground tents and hammocks still sleep folks comfortably!

 

Easy you sell it to me for half price lolol JKJK

 

While i do like ground Tents i like the RTT because it gets me off the ground and makes me feel more secure. It also only takes me 10 min to be packed up and ready to go. I also like the fact that you can get an annex and have a changing area as well.

 

Also i cant fall asleep that easily and i found that my RTT works well for me.

 

I'll protect you from those big bad bears Brian! You're gonna be out in the woods, who's gonna see you change? lol

 

Boy, yall would hate me and Jeannie if yall ever went camping with us! lol
