I wouldn't have gotten the stock brackets only because I liked the 1" standoffs that I ended up using. And so didn't use it. Originally, I thought I might try and make brackets so that the awning would come off. I thought I might make an auto roof rack bracket and could use the awning on the...

DJ, The Shady Boy definitely looks like it would work on the back mounted to a rear rack. It is much wider (10’) than the rear of the camper so you would have quite a bit of overhang on the sides. Plus it would be way up in the air mounted to the rack. You would probably want to hold down the...

Then headed over Cottonwood Pass into Taylor Park. We ended up camping along Texas Creek. It rained and we sure were happy to have the new awning to cook under ;)

We headed out for a short trip over to Taylor Park but took a side trip over Weston Pass on the way, just ‘cause we hadn’t been there before. Nice pass with lots of potential camp sites. This area is just north of the Buffalo Peaks Wilderness out of the South Park of Colorado.

Boy, I feel for you Jay. Last year when we were out in California with a camping trailer, the longest day was the drive from La Jolla up to Santa Barbara through LA :( . Of course, I let my wife, June, drive ;) she's a better driver than me anyway :eek: (hope she doesn't see this)

More pics Here are some pics of the awning extended.

Another Shady Boy Awning I just installed a Shady Boy awning on the FWC Ranger. I went ahead and installed it using the two mounting blocks built into the awning case. These are the only bolts used when installing the case to the stock mounting brackets so I figured I’d give it a shot. Went...

My wife, June, and I have been using the Cabelas Adam and Eve zip together bags for quit some time. They are very comfortable either individually or zipped together. I'm pretty sure that on the version we got one bag is heavier than the other so you can use the appropriate one on top depending...

Jay, excellent! Good looking rig, enjoy!

Chris, Sounds like it fits the bill, meeting your needs. Post some pics when you get a chance. It's always nice to see new setups to get ideas for other ways to do things.

Mark, Looks like a great trip. We did a similar one last summer from Denver. Grand Canyon, down to San Diego then, up to Monterrey and back through Vegas. We stayed at State Park campgrounds along the coast. We really liked the Morro Bay area. Have a wonderful trip and congratulations on...

Marc, nice pics! Thanks for posting.

Brett, So, you ordered a Bobcat??? I'm really looking forward to seeing your pics! Did they have to increase the height to fit the 22 1/2 inch bed rail height on the new Tundra? That should be a great setup.

Welcome to the forum! There are a couple of members on this forum from the east, they will probably chime in. I have a FWC Ranger which is a long bed small truck size. I have only slept 3 inside. For maximum sleeping capacity, you are probably looking at a shell model so you can outfit it as...

These are really good ideas. I like the Wonder one the best.... only, is just me, or would a Dodge look better in that one?(no offense kc) Cheers, Mike Mike, I think you’re just having a nostalgic moment. ;)

Erod, Nice! I like the text from #1 and the graphic from #3. I was just trying to renew interest in this thread, I agree that simple is better. So, when can I order my sticker??? ;)

That is not a 2007 Tundra. I have a 2000 Tundra with a FWC Ranger. Here is a picture showing the width. The max width of the Ranger is 70 1/2 inches with the jack brackets. My Tundra max width is just a little over 80 inches. I had to put on jack extension brackets so that the jacks would...

oops the check's in the mail :p Royalties!! I want royalties!! :D Nice work Jim. I really like that font (except for the typo........)

Really bored at work today (KC's picture)...

This custom FWC Eagle was discussed a while back... And you probably saw this already but I thought this was a nice table setup. I emailed the guy and he said he fabricated the table hardware himself.

KC, It is definitely moist in the Steamboat area. It was a nice surprise, as so many campgrounds in Colorado are way overrun with people.

TT, I'm not sure Toyotas ever die. :D I've got over 115,000 miles on my Tundra and it's still going strong. Going up the passes, my wife was struggling to keep up with me in her Suburban. The Chevy has half the miles and me with the camper on the back :rolleyes: Toyotas just seem to age...

More pics Here are pictures of Dumont Lake and the Rabbit Ears from the campground road...

Steamboat Springs - Rabbit Ears Pass, Colorado The girls headed up early to Steamboat Springs for a soccer tournament this past weekend. My son and I decided to take the camper and find a place to stay out of town. We ended up staying at the Dumont Lake Campground on Rabbit Ears Pass. We had...
