    Part of the security of having one of these is others not knowing how to take it out :D lol I am actually going to be getting a custom mount made though from Crap Industries in California as soon as I get time to head over there. They are making some killer off road capable mounts for these TruckVaults.

    Thank you fellas!!

    If you haven't heard of or seen these yet you're surely missing out.

    I was able to hook up with Brad at the Rock Therapy event where he personally installed this PRO kit for me. Seriously delayed his trip back home to do so! Amazing service!

    This photo really doesn't do it justice the light emitted from this kit extends out past the vehicle and almost acts like a rock light of some sort. Inside the hood the LED's are a flood pattern so you don't get the shadow when you reach inside either.

    While driving to Montana from Utah on Sunday I pulled over to stretch a bit. Out of boredom almost I was organizing my TruckVault a bit and of course walked away from it just to see it from a distance... well that made me want to take a photo of it also

    Thanks Sean! It's great to a be a part of your awesome truck. I love what I do and procrastinating on the 16 hour road trip back home couldn't have been more fun. Your post already sent over a new customer, really can't thank you enough! This small business has received so many helping hands lately, pulling it out of the dark and into the light, it is truly a blessing. That picture really looks cool, Im gonna make it my wallpaper for a little while. Don't tell me my girlfriend she's been temporarily replaced, haha, or she might strangle me overhddd mffsfyyyy slnfnsndn.s jnjlasdfashpoufuh9f99s-9*((_^_(Y(#*_(&_!(@

    Camping in a campground is sometimes ok when you have your 15 month old baby with you.
    It did feel weird though having asphalt in my campsite though I won't lie.

    If you have a family and would like more room... or just are a very active bachelor and would like more room for activities, I highly recommend the Mt Adams from CVT. This is my Camp Castle for sure! The quality far surpasses the competition also.

    Of course this Castle is mounted on my VMI Offroad OX trailer with the CargoGlide 600xl popping out the back to easily access all my gear.

    The 6 light kit is around $479 and the 4 light kit around $349. Worth every penny.

    This is the only night trip out I have gone on and the only photo I took (my wife doesn't like our camping trips to turn into photo shoots lol). I will get more as time goes on and trips are taken.

    They are installed in the center of each fender well and the center of the slider/frame using the supplied angled mooting pads.

    Thanks bro!!

    I was hesitant at first to mount them above the tires in the fenders but after seeing the result in the flood spread there is no better way lol

    Sean, can you post a few pics of close-ups of the light mounts on the truck. I'm curious to see how they are mounted. When you have time that is...:)

    Edit: I saw a previous post where you mentioned you would post pics when your wife is not playing director...:D
