    Mostly stuff I built.
    I use Omni dog collars to tie down bottles. I have a set of them holding the bottles on my welding trailer for several years now. You might look into them. They are nylon web with a nice coating on them. They are cheap, strong and work for great to tie things down semi permanently.

    Wired some lights up for cargo lighting. Also wired up the side pods and tool box light around the inner lip.

    No camping gear in the bed of the truck. All in the trailer, which was nice to drop it and pull off not needing to unload it before any rides.


    Ended up putting the room attachment on for a changing room and dry storage. @Rattletrap66 used it for storage as well.

    Also shout out to @allenfab for bending me some tube for the rack and awning mounts.


    Trailer pulled great(catches a lot of wind) slept great as well. One thing I want to add is lighting for under the ladder area and a little more padding for bedding (side sleeper)

    Thank you. It’s been fun building it but not it’s time to enjoy it. Trying to talk the wife into camping for thanksgiving.
