E rated tires refers to the strength of the sidewalls, not the mud or snow capabilities. With more weight on the truck you will want stronger sidewalls. They are pricy but worth it. I have a 2013 Tacoma and a Bobcat (like a Fleet) shell. I get by with just airbags. I haven't needed stronger...

I am glad to see this topic, as I am planning on heading that way next week. The weather report looks much better than this week, but it puts me after the Nov. 1 closure date for many of the campgrounds. I haven't been to Lava Beds in 35 years, but I doubt if it has changed much. That is sort of...

Wow, those are outstanding shots! Some I have been to, others I need to put on my list. Thanks for sharing.

I like NorCalHawks method. I would add one more tub, since they nest so effortlessly. We keep all our cutlery, spatulas, cooking tools, plates, cups, etc. in the fourth tub. It lifts right out freeing the three to be used as washing. Pop it back in when done and all four become a sliding drawer.

Thank you so much for putting all this into simple language that even I can understand. I look forward to the ongoing discussion of the conclusions, as well as your eventual solar install.

I think Bread has a great idea, but don't know where to get one made. http://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/topic/11727-breads-mods/ The purple one third frame down.

Not Ronin, but I am guessing Kirk Creek on Hwy 1. Am I correct?

I've heard you shouldn't try to drop it with snow already on it. But if you plan in advance, it seems like it should work.

rfg - Thank you that is a great tip. I use a stretchy coil key ring thing on the gear shift to remind me the propane is turned on (goes on the propane knob when off), but couldn't think of anything for the latches. I too am guilty of the 65 mph club, not once but twice, the first trip. Now I...

Can I just say, I get an adrenaline rush whenever I see a new post in this thread? Nothing new to share, but keep them coming.

I use a bunch of these to connect things and keep them from moving in transit: velcro, grommet and shoelace. https://flic.kr/p/BMrPSs click right arrow once to see it holding up bags.

Here's my version of the fire https://sierrashadow.wordpress.com/2016/09/22/wheres-waldo/ and some other stuff.

What a pleasure to see familiar places through your tools. You are a real inspiration to me.

If you need longer roof latches, are you maybe trying to cram too much into the bed space? I know there is some "play" involved, but I wouldn't tamper with the structural integrity too much.

For me it's dinner at the deli after the Millpond Music Festival in Bishop, headed toward an art class in Yosemite on Monday. Popular spot this weekend. They had dusting of snow on top of Sonora Pass yesterday, so come prepared.

I am talking about under the cassette itself. I am basing this on our tent trailer, so it may be different in your rig. You are supposed to slide it out, right? We used to have to lift ours up towards the toilet bowl to get it over the stop that keeps it from sliding out accidentally. Good luck.

Can you reach underneath it and lower the flap that keeps it from sliding out manually?

I haven't wanted to speak up because what you were looking for was different than what I do, but since you are struggling, I thought I would share. I have a Bobcat Shell with the couch. Which means no kitchen side at all. I keep all my cooking gear in the couch storage near the back door. That...

Just love a trip report that includes the food stops. Ice cream, yum. Also great that you listed the specs for the combo and that you felt it handled the trip well. Good information.

I have a fan vent over the bed and a plain vent over the cab. Love it for sleeping, but forgot that when the lid is down, for all intents and purposes, I don't have a useable fan. Wish I had put in two fans.

But how do you keep the front so clean with all your galavanting around?

Thank you Todgru. I cleaned the cache and rebooted and it looks right now. I noticed someone beat me to the reputation button so they must have liked it too.

Hope that helps.

I took a picture and will try to upload. It's a tif file. But when I try to attach it says undefined undefined in the box. I will try putting it on flickr. WT strange by Sierra Shadow2009, on Flickr

On my Mac the site looks very strange. I had to switch to the cell phone to do this. Sent from my iPhone using Wander The West
