    This is a huge bummer. I could see it happening when people started to get a bit out of hand a couple of years back-big rave like parties and so on. Just surprised it took this long...though I'm not sure how they define "illegally camping" because they are identified as dry camps on many maps.

    I suppose the arborist who ran over nails which led to the illegal weed grow didn't help either.

    these have been sitting in my shopping cart, a lot cheaper than front runner, can't speak to the quality.

    She ain't stock anymore.
    I've been using the Plano sportsman trunks for awhile and they are pretty good. They are probably sturdy enough to stand on if you're on the lighter side, but I wouldn't really recommend it. I've used mine as a step occasionally, but they're just a little to flexy for too much of that kind of abuse. Still they're one of the better totes I've found, and I'd for sure recommend them. Also they come in three different sizes, the small and medium ones are my favorites.

    I use DeWalt tough boxes for my cooking stuff and for my extra fluids. They're plenty strong enough to take all the abuse I've thrown at them.

    I suggest you get rid of the bed on your truck and build a pop up camper.
    Zero dust gets in there.

    I'd totally be down to lend a hand.

    Here are some bookmarks to start. Unfortunately I deleted a lot of them as I used them up. I should have kept all of them. I'd say a good third or more are gone.

    I ended up not using a lot of the products on here. And there's some non camper stuff mixed in.

    Just throwing it out there, I pulled my clamshell and 3rd with 4.10 for 4.88 from ecgs. I'll be giving them mine as core but if someone has a first gen e locker 3.90 or other and wants a cheap bump up, hit me up and we can scheme. Leave your 3rd and clam for me to turn in I'm game to do an exchange mine for yours or I can do the removal/install. I just need something to give them to get my money back and it's not super duper hard to swap it out.

    So... I think I'm starting to lose what marbles I had left. Is it just me or do 35s look small on my truck?

    There is a small voice in my head that is telling me I should have gone bigger.:gossip:

    What make and what's the actual size? Most times 35's aren't 35's. Just like most 33's aren't 33's.

    Have you got that aligned yet to push the tires forward a bit? It might be the angle but it looks like you'll rub pretty bad at full stuff.
