    Nice, you going to have the holiday inn express in the back. Way nicer than sleeping in the truck bed. Those ridges killed my back. Mattmx made a nice setup. Made a deck, put a memory foam matress back there and his stuff under the deck. Might make one of those.

    yeah i'd rather have the tent off the ground with a foam mattress than a tent on the ground with an airmattress. plus from what i understand, the RTT is easier/faster to set up. ive slept in the back of my truck once. wasnt bad, but didnt like being in the open like that and i have a bed mat with a few other things set down on the bed to be more comfortable

    Oh hell yeah! Not messing with that cheap harbor freight tire chuck, tire gauge. Bought this from Amazon yesterday and it was delivered today.

    No plans for a permanent mount. I am going to make some type of sleeping deck in the back with storage space underneath. I have a co2 mount that straps the co2 tank vertical or horizontal. Been looking at a lot of expedition type setups.

    I want to start getting stuff set up, but I don't want to drill holes and permanently mount stuff so I can still use my bed when I need to... So I don't know what I'm going to do haha

    Just talked to Sunny at Downsouth Motorsports. Looks like I'm going to pull the trigger on an Icon stage one suspension. Looks like they will be able to build my new rear shocks based on the leaf/shackle setup I'll be running. Although my extended 5100 will work I don't want there to be a chance that my rear shocks bottom out on me. It will be nice to have coilovers in the front as well.

    Hopefully it will be all worth it.

    I will be selling my current suspension that I've had on less than a year.
