Hondo Garage's New Thing

Has anyone thought of any tricks for keeping the dog happy in the back with lack of openable windows? Can one “crack” the side panels?

 

There is a gfc youtube video on this.

Thank you, both! Awesome solution. That combined with optional rear window should make for a happy pooch.

That's awesome it can hold your body weight. That shit must be pretty strong.

 

Looks awesome. I'm interested in the weight and the price....

I'm guessing I'll stick with a simple awning over the tailgate.

 

Here is my shower solution. Hard to beat a shower beer on the top of a mountain in the middle of nowhere. Simple pvc frame that breaks down to fit in a camp chair bag along with curtain.

Total cost < 20$




This was my previous setup with a tent pole bent in a U with some very lightweight curtains, it was not good in breezy conditions.

Its stout for sure. Thats actually Matthew, the owner/founder/builder, but I did test it out myself. Lol

 

I believe Matthew said ~70lbs and the final price is TBD. I got in on the presale from Expo East.

 

Are there any out in the wild in lower mainland BC or upstate WA(bellingham area)? I would love to check one of these out in person.

And this information might already be out there, but how much higher then the peak of the roof does the camper sit without the roof rack?

Thanks!

 

We’re headed to Tofino next week, likely coming through Vancouver on the way home to Seattle (Sunday the 3rd). I do like talking about the camper.

 

That would be perfect! I'll send you a pm!

 

I’m finally on the list. Woohoo! Only a year to wait!

Quick question which I apologize in advance because I know it’s been answered...just couldn’t find it. How does the light system/USB charging work overnight? Any concerns with battery drain?

 

Oh. Is that not a thing anymore?

 

Not bad. Does the Kinsman awning use the same bolt spacing in the extrusion as other 270° awning manufacturers? In other words, would the mounts be somewhat universal? The Kinsman is nice but I can get a Rhinorack Batwing for about 70% cheaper.

 

Thinking of adding windows. May already be posted here, but can some
Of you who have windows tell me why you don’t like them or cons to having them. I was backing up my truck the other day and don’t have a backup camera and it got
Me thinking what it would be like without the windows.
