    nice setup, how u like ur roof rack? much wind noise? noticed you ride ur fridge in trunk, how is it feathering weather and dust? for some reason thouhg those should be inside cabin or enclosed with no dust around them because they have fans

    Roof rack does fine not much wind noise once you get the correct pitch on the wind deflector so just gotta tweak with that a bit find the sweet spot as far as the fridge it's got a thermal cover on it and I'm not to worried about it I know guys who have had there's in the beds of trucks for years with no issues

    when you say pitch u referring to sliding it up and down the the holes they provided, i have about 1" gap between windshield and button of the deflector as i installed into middle holes and its definitely sings at 65+ i was bit worried putting it down to close to windshield on last set of holes, i assume urs is installed as close as possible to the windshield? also what awning you got there, i looked around for my setup and found all to be ether to big or full sized, curious which one u have?

    I use a Plano box they are a lot cheaper iv looked at pelican's but for the price of those my personal opinion is you mine as well just spend a tiny bit more and get the full aluminum boxes

    Thank you and I love them iv ran a few different brands of mud terrains and these are just amazing they ride smooth are pretty quiet for a mud terrain and the performance off-road is absolutely amazing we tested them in mud sand and dirt roads and some high speed dirt roads we reached 90mph and it stayed driving straight and true no floating at all I got two friends that are ordering some once their treads are done they where sold on them ten minutes into the ride
