    I've forgotten the guys name but it was someone from TW from back east. Not intended to toot my own horn but I thought is was a great rack. Slightly heavy but not too bad, but if I had a real need for a roof rack it would have been the ideal rack IMO. I just didn't have the use for it that I thought I would, so it got sold.

    Definitely a great rack. The mounting system you had on it was awesome. I wish I didn't have to drill in my cab. Really like the low profile racks. When I had the basket I thought I was going to use it more. Didn't end up doing this because of the topper's storage space. Doing it more to throw my surfboards on top for weekend trips to the beach. Hopefully I'll get good use out of it for the amount I've paid

    Going over your trailer build again. Would be great to own one. When you posted the one that was selling for $1000 that was the deal of the century! Maybe someday. .

    You're still ok with 2 kids. :) When we just had our two older boys we could still pack everything we needed into the trucks. Once we added the twins, there just wasn't room anymore so we needed the trailer.

    Two things I want to get done this week. Rack install and light bar install.

    Next week rock lights and bed rack lights.

    Then I can focus on the important stuff

    No room on the top deck of the bumper to mount it so I had to
    Mount it on the angled front part of the bumper. Almost flush with the stinger.. Also cut a hole in the grill craft mesh to run the wires. Would like to run an amber light bar behind the grill
