Congrats, Marty and Jeff are solid, my buddy just took possession this May of his ATC, a slightly upgraded shell i think. He drives a Taco also. A great combo imho.

My camper (ATC) has been wrapped since it was new. Just wasn't a fan of a big white box on a dark grey truck. Have had to fix the section over the cab to impacts from rocks bugs and branches. The drivers side was replaced this year as it had some wear issues. All in all i am satisfied with how...

So far RV camps Visitor Centers Grocery stores Gas Stations Campgrounds and a very nice old lady All of these i just went up to and asked, offered money and filled up from a spigot. I have a 27-30 gallon tank and i usually carry an extra five of water and fuel i also can pump and filter out of...

I just never drive around on those type of roads if it rains/snow. Just pull over, pop the top and wait. You can of course go in and out from different roads as well. X2 and the moki dugway camping. It can get crowded(and windy) but it is till a fun overnight. Mule canyon?

The road(s) in and out can be fun, especially when wet. The ruin parks have numerous camps around them. The citadel in cedar mesa is a fun hike. Did a few others in that area as well.

Have been to Beef Basin a few times, one of my favorite places. Great driving, very few people, more ruins than i will ever be able to aim a camera at. Truly a special place, Cedar Mesa is also amazing for the above reasons.

Sorry for your loss, went through this a year ago. They are often the best traveling companions. My wife agrees.

Trying to contact a friend on here who has that setup, he is in portland, and my wife is in albany, maybe we can set something up.

How about two for the price of one? Ernie, and Al.

Bajales, PM sent.

If any of our members are looking to purchase a Wilco Hitchgate tire carrier, please contact me via pm. I will be getting rid of mine for a great price.

The 1000s are great, have carried them into the backcountry doing SAR work in MT. And would most likely work for your needs. I was going to go that route, but went with a 2k, converted it to propane. And it will run a larger heater. Space wasn't an issue due to the truck being a crew cab. You...

One are i have visited a few times is the forest access across from the cunningham cabin area in the park. Has gotten busier the last few years, but there are some great spots back there. The gros ventre area by kelly has some nice areas as well.

It's been pretty smoky over here. Just keeps getting earlier in the year.

I have a protech on mine and will look at them again if i don't go custom.

I have a spot or two i have used in the past. An area mentioned above can be pretty nice, depending and your setup and comfort driving on sand. I go there several times a year, and only once was it crowded (4th of july). If you are willing to air down and drive a bit, you can find some peace and...

Second on the Magruder, fun drive. Late summer/early fall is a great time to drive it.

I have a custom ATC flatbed model, one of my buddies has a fully loaded Granby, another has an ATC Bobcat shell. The FWC is fancier, at a much higher price for what some of us don't want or need. This being said, what they build may not look as modern but they build a product that works. I have...

Always! Drive mountain roads daily, and always use tow/haul mode and downshift. 03 f250 take it out of od/ and downshift. 2016 with camper on 99% of the time, Tow/mode, engine brake same with the 2020, both newer trucks are diesels.

Having grown up in KY, it's nice to see others enjoy my "home". Lot's of fond memories at Natural Bridge and Red River Gorge. Where i learned climbing, backpacked all over the place. Next time, Distilleries are a must. Before she passed, i would take my Mom on a tour or two everytime i went back...

From personal experience, i would wait until you put the camper on and see how it looks and drives. I tried a few different approaches, and in the end i went with a fairly moderate suspension upgrade. Mostly, deaver, some Carli/BDS parts. I did a new leaf pack in the rear, and while the camper...

I live north of the west entrance to YNP, have been through West Yellowstone,MT twice in the last week. The crowds and lines to get into the park are insane. Most of the dispersed places around here and the Tetons are no longer a secret, many were closed after the eclipse debacle. If...

I can't recommend Cedar Mesa, Bears Ears and Beef Basin enough. More native ruins and hikes than one lifetime can fully explore. Dispersed camping everywhere, very few people and great scenery. I try to spend two weeks a year there, wish it was 22. Lot's of not so great roads to make a person...

I re-read my earlier post, i apologize for being blunt. Was not my intention to offend anyone. Fires have just hit to close to home. Didn't mention the "small" one we had here in the fall that just about took out my MT place. Can't do much about lightning, but far too many are human caused. And...

Ok, Here it goes. Get out the torches. No fires in the west period. Every year we spend billions, billions. Too many people out there, not all are human based but a lot are. None, zip, nada. Propane if you must, but enough with the wood fires I know, this sucks but it has got to stop. I spend...
