    Built a new Tcase crossmember after I crushed mine in KY. Made it out of much thicker sidewall so shouldn’t have any issues!

    That’s amazing. I’ve always overlooked them bc they’re so small. May have get me some now

    Nice welds! But I’m confused what is this? Supports the T case weight?

    Got some Rock lights on sale off Amazon. Just cheap China ones but holey hell they are bright. Used some left over HDPE from my tailgate insert to make some mounts for the lights in the cutouts of my victory rack. Pretty happy with how it turned out. Cost a total of $11 bucks lol for some nice camping light.

    Ive been to that store and its a hole in the wall compared to the Vegas store. I think that's the main hub. She was saying how the Chatt store really doesn't even compare to that one and the one in Bend OR. That dont stock the Chatt store as much as other 2.

    I know that silly... I was just happy to meet the actual CVT employees I had dealt with over the phone and via email so many times.

    Yea it is nice! Oh they said that they are doing away with the hybrid series and moving to the adventure series which she couldnt even tell me the diffrences when i asked lol. She said i would have to talk with owner bobby about that. But it looked almost identical to the hybrid. I think the cover was nicer or something. Its the dark grey tent in the pic above with the New Thielson tent (side open)

    Maybe that helps explain why the hybrids were on so much bigger of a discount sale for black Friday than any other series...

    probably, But who really cares, hybrids are awesome in my opinion. Their only down side is the weight. Dont know how they could make them any nicer

    I don't know how they would trim weight either... I mean the aluminum plate they use is already super thin so you aren't going to save weight that way. I think the extra weight really comes from the heavier/thicker tent fabric.
