Truck should arrive on the 3rd.... 12 more days of waiting.

 

ey

yeah i know i can expand it upwards easily, but that also means i'm bringing more weight upwards on the rack, but yeah just a few extra 90s and it's all good for more storage. over a year ago i wanted to do something like this https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/diy-pressurized-water-tank-update.502009/page-2#post-17731302
where the system is on the same L-track system i'm using for the bed rack and backrack meaning it's easy to remove it if i need to. It's a good system but...


...apparently it's difficult to find 6" ABS or PVC at the Home despot so i'd need to settle for 4.

actually now that i remember this, this is actually stupid easy to build right now... gonna need to order more L track, gonna pull the backrack off now to do some measurements

 

Depends how well it’s measured. If it fits without flex, awesome. I have a piece of flexible hose siniliar to eves trough stuff. Nothing but the best from airflow.

 

I spy a Coleman stove....my favourite piece of camp gear. Allows me to make drip coffee with tons of Baileys to start the day off right.

 

hmm. yes. this will work...

 

How many lengths do you need?

 

that Coleman stove is older than both of us my friend
this was before the red tanks even existed



still bruns good, but i need to check the internals since i dont think it has ever been changed

 

I have the exact same one, use it all the time!

 

with the locking feet too???

 

Love it! Any idea what year it is? 1950s?

Currently I own 3 stoves (after I gifted one to a buddy) two of which are older than me. The only ‘new’ one I have is from the 2000’s and it’s the only one I have NOT brought camping. I’d rather trust the ‘71 and ‘84 cause of their proven track records of delicious meals.

Strangely enough I am always checking kijiji for another stove, just incase right. Saw a 3-burner a few weeks back I wanted to buy.

 

Yep!

 

Fvcker...I read the text and thought to meself..."-Meself, your gonna one up this ute on generational coleman stove, cuz you has one"

Then i scrolled the pics....an you pull out a pre red tank.


Dont lie, tou inherited it right?

 

I own 2
I have a Coleman 425E (1967-1979) can't tell you what year exactly but it has a suitcase latch and the key'd dual burner.
and the one pictured is a Model 4m"the tourist" which i managed to date back to 1958. (1960 has this strange round wire feet that clamp it together)

WOOO! the thing is a beast and doesn't care what you toss at it. do you have any photos of yours?

my Dad got it when the thing was already 20 years old and i evidently did inheirt it



No i'm a fucking hipster and bought one off ebay for $40 because I aM cOoL tHiS wAy

 

I have the red tank one, which is already a few decades old,

damn, that one is really old...

 

Nope, it's in my popup trailer which is in storage.

 

Picked up two of these this afternoon. Fits a Buddy heater with propane cylinder with some room to spare for a CO detector, so I can finally throw out the cardboard box!

 

Nice score on the boxes!!

Appreciate the heads up @weight .......Thanks!

 

Yo for fifteen dollaradenos that's a bargain, I got two and six jerry cans all at like fifteen buckos

 

I had no idea they would do free shipping.......BONUS......but I have five coming!

 

Too bad production for the US ceased in the 2014 model year (pretty certain)I would love a 2nd gen MT with 50,000 kms. Reg cabs are rare in Canada and all the ones you see are US models from at least 2001 and newer.
