Do you think pulling a small trailer would help with the drag created by just having a flat backed vehicle without a trailer?

Feel free to come stay at my farm on your way up. I just found out that its due for delivery around March 12-14. So excited!

In my Hawk order, they agreed to, instead of installing the "ice box" to install a cabinet without installing a door, but to include a door and no screw holes. By leaving a open space I will be able to slide my Engel in and out of that space. Above it will be the folding countertop with a...

Cool, thanks. Pun intended.

When I told one of the guys at FWC that I already had a engel 45 fridge. He said it's better than anything we sell. Why do you suppose that is? Their fridges cost nearly the same if not more. One would think they'd install systems which are more reliable. Especially if the 3way ones are prone to...

Where did you buy the storage box behind the wind faring? Is the bottom of the cab over good enough to screw into, is it made of plywood or something? Thanks

I'd like to a picture of your rule pump and filter setup please.

I still have mine. I'm considering selling it, now that I'll have the Hawk, but at the same time if the hawk and all of my gear is too much for my GVWR then pulling the trailer would definitely help. Thanks y'all for your inputs and posts.

Sage advice and thanks!

Thanks for those pix Iowahiker!

My thoughts exactly, plus covering any lines with that gray water line foam insulation.

I'm about to replace all of my Cooper Discoverer AT3's with an E rated tire. I've really had good experiences on and off road with the Coopers and a recent comparable tire review rated them up at the top. If I can get them a little taller and in an E rating, I may stick with them.

I felt wronged somehow, I apologize if I came across negatively. I've deleted my comment. Thanks

Excellent and very informative, thank you for posting this. Copying!

Thank you.

I just spent the past hour or so looking at all of the trip reports. Wow, lots of detailed information. Their website said that it's for sale. I hope it's up long enough to glean some hard copies of their trip details.

Wow those are affordably priced compared to all the high end stuff that's out there. How are they holding up?

Wish I had seen this before last week when I ordered my new Hawk...

If you want to see the whole build thread with all of the pertinent information, it's on my signature in the expedition portal forum where I have the same name. Thanks

And a few more. I've made it so the trailer lid can be locked on both sides using a padlock. (Last picture) the perforated square tubing at each corner are actually stabilizer legs for unleveled surfaces.

Some more of the Solar Tortoise in the aluminum tool box the battery system consists of two deep cycle AGM group 31 batteries, a 30 amp shore charger from an old camper, and a solar charger with digital readout. The rectangular PVC thingy is actually a shower stall I made from 3/4". I used it...

For storage issues you could either have a cargo rack on the hitch, put stuff on the floor of the camper and then transfer it to the cab when setting up to camp, tow a small trailer or get one of those aerodynamic storage boxes for the roof.

Good to know, thanks y'all.

I was told by Michael Olds to stay way from the sliding window because they leak and they haven't yet found a purveyor of a better product.

No I haven't. What part of the state are they in? My comics are mostly military comics from the 1970's
