    Yup when I realized I was gonna buy one was after a trip with the dog and he was getting mud all over my pillow in the back seat. That’s when I just bought one. But it’s good for a variety of things. It’s just really small compared to the 4Runner attic or other attics they make.

    I wanna try and DIY one since theirs is only for a double cab. It just seems so handy for rain gear.

    I'm so ready now. I have waterproof rain overalls, matching jacket and some actual rain boots. I'm not dealing with soggy clothes anymore :rain:

    When we ran it there was really two main points about 3/4 up that stopped momentum. And being slick from the rain locked or not we had to winch.

    Is there footage of the run up in the snow?

    No we only have footage of us all coming down. The mother fucker hit the gas and was already halfway up before I could get my camera out. He did get stopped at one spot, backed down a bit and hit the bitch harder lol. I know the spots you are talking about though. Going up there was a low rock jutting out left side your tire would hit and kinda a hump/ledge and a little further up two more big rocks jutting from the left.
