    Mr. Shaver, that's one helluva build you put together and to do all that w/ the 2.7 is so impressive! Kudos for a one-of-a-kind build and to actually use it the way you built it.
    Huge Congrats there, and that Off Road Extreme link is so well done, just like your badass taco!

    Thank you so much brotha!! Really appreciate that!! And Ken did an amazing job! He put a lot of time into it. He didn't ask me for links to the products used or anything. I'm super impressed with what he put together. Definitely helps that he has knowledge with mileage actually getting out there as well!

    Ive seen that topper/camper. What brand is that? Also at night to keep bugs out do you have to close both the tail gate and hatch or is there some kind of of bug net?

    It's a flippac camper! here's a short video showing how it functions


    And yes you close the tailgate and the window to completely close it up. I did pick up a bug net to put on that section, but never found it necessary to put up. I never had a big issue with bugs in there. It's very minimal if I ever have bugs inside. I just use one of those recharge bug zapping swatters. They work great! the one I have can even stand on its own and has a blue light to draw them in to it

    I see they went out of business, looks like Lone Peak is similar. Nice build.
