    I am planning to get back to the Mohawk again for local stuff. But you can go anywhere now with your super camping setting. :D
    Stealth camping....Tacoma style.
    I am hoping to get to NH. Would love to find some place cool up there to go.
    Thought about trying some private places too. Researched them a little a couple years ago, but then forgot about them.

    I need to hit Savoy at some point too. I think that would be a fun place for the kids.

    I know I really want to get out there and use it all as much as possible! I plan on hitting NH and ME this year for sure. Id like to do some real off grid stuff too. Just not sure where to go.

    I seem to recall Newfoundland & Labrador was nice. Heard they paved the main roads though. Bit of a drive.

    I should probably update this. I’ve been working on the truck a lot recently.

    So I have been out of work for over a week now, which was the perfect excuse to get some projects done on the truck! Pictures to follow...

    URD Short throw shifter installed! This really makes one hell of a difference!

    I installed my tool box which includes the dual battery w/ isolator setup, fuse block, solar controller, VOSWITCH switch controller box, on board air compressor, and on board water!

    I installed cup holder and console lights as well as back lit my 4WD switch

    I also installed a new back up camera as mine was broken.
