    That is an awesome mod. If i didnt have a super pacific coming id totally get that. I love how it can fold down and be out of the way.

    The static climbing chalk bag for my nalgene. Simple but I never go anywhere with out a nalgene and it’s been the best bottle holder for it. Keeps the water cold too which was surprising.

    oh and window tint

    There’s got to be a forum on this somewhere, but maybe you have the answer: I’m torn between this and the BakFlip bed cover; would like both. How long would it take to remove the soft topper?

    I love that everyone uses the static brand chalkbag (I used a black diamond, it was on sale) but I think the static is handmade in San Diego?

    It was on Etsy, full disclosure the change tray isn’t great. A few bumps and it all gets mixed together.

    Just a couple minutes, its very quick. There is also a separate cover you can buy if you need the top folded down for an extended period of time.

    Applied no slip tape to my bed. Worked better than expected. About $20 and no added weight. 3B4BF9D9-0EBB-4025-94C9-09D21A677E69.jpg

    Pressurized water tank for washing up after fishing and playing in mud. Also makes for easy kitchen clean up after a tailgate meal is cooked on the griddle.

    The single best improvement?
    Changing my insurance policy from “to work/school” to “pleasure”. Yup. Got the word a few weeks ago on WFH permanently. Tiny bit of insurance savings but a huge savings on my sanity by avoiding 1.5 hour commute in traffic - one way, and even longer on the evening commutes.

    2nd best improvement?
    Clocking back country miles (and football games/practice/grocery runs/lake trips etc.) with my son in our new pleasure wagon. :thumbsup:

    This is the ONLY vehicle in my life that has not seen mucho miles per year. I've never been one to live in the city for long and have commuted most of my life.
