More than one camper, in the field, doing what we do

Light Hawk!!! How is this set up working for you these days?? Still have it I hope! Thinking of this on my ‘01 Hawk. TT

Only applicable to AC models not DC.. DC has higher bed walls :)

Does it have an extended cab over? (48 inches) TT

The spring in the plunger will eventually fail in corrosive climates.. This is where I am after freeing it up a few times over the years..have not torn into it yet to try and fix/ replace spring. Rear vent/fan is fine, never had a problem. More use keeps it going I guess. TT

Me to. And free elk and bear viewing as well!

Use these all the time, both side and rear. Rear floods rarely, nice however if you hear a thump in the night.

Perfect! We have escaped that wind by setting up under the bluffs at the S end of the little portito beach. While at the same time people camped in the isthmus were having half the camp blown into the bay. Love that place

Piccies?? pretty please

Good Choice on AV. Such a beautiful and welcoming place. Hopefully you found the taco shop! Where did you guys camp? In “town” or down at the Portito with Tio and Cascabel the pooch? We were lucky enough to drive out of there the back way last April. Up the hill to San Jose de la Noria...

Have a great time! It truly is spectacular up there TT

Frank forgot to write "sunmans SECRET spot" LOL If you get to Pruitt ridge you will find it.. Have fun and give us a shout when you get back. And remember, we all love pictures! TT

My first set up was a 88 4by 22r carbureted with an 85 fleet on it.. Loved it more than my house for ten years.. Enjoy your new set up!! Downshift early! TT

After crossing Mexicali east, don't forget to get your tourist card at the customs office. It is about 200 yards across the border on the right. There is an ATM there as well.. easy peasy, and not good to be caught without it.. If someone has to fly home from down south for whatever reason...

Living at the beach in Oxnard with the camper outdoors most of the year.. On my third FWC in twenty years, all at the beach many Baja trips. The jack brackets will rust immediately as well as the hardware- get the aluminum brackets use stainless hardware The clamps on the camper will last from...

NTSQD, Hang in there brother, I know it was a rough day.. Our little spot on the hill looks to be torched Terrible....... TT

Baja almanacs are hard to find these days. Good to have if you can find one

Re through bolting through floor. I ran around with reckless abandon in Baja for ten years through bolted, no problems.. My holes were pre set when I bought the camper, so the holes through the truck were not ideal position wise, but it worked.. To be able to choose the position on the truck...

Thanks DLN! It's been a while.... Been lurking here and there. Still getting after it! Cheers! TT

I second SunMans recommendation of instant Mex. Twenty years plus with one claim paid in full.. TT

Fwiw, 15 of the 27 monuments being discussed were dedicated between '08 and '16. Seems disproportionate.

My first FWC was a '84 fleet, soo many memories. Regarding attaching to truck, have you considered bolting through the floor and truck bed? That was my M O on my old Fleet Model only because that's the way the previous owner mounted it..honestly way back then I didn't know any better! There...

^^^^^^ stunning picture of the lenticulars!! Well worth the effort, thank you for posting.. Really enjoyed reading your blog on Baja.. So much to see and do! We came to your Agua verde camp spot ( a favorite )last April the week after semana Santa... We couldn't stay there because of all the...

We put firewood in the gap sometimes. Usually fractional wood cut offs from a construction site. Packs well, chop it up with a hatchet.. Big enough not to slide under the camper while traveling should things get sporty Sometimes it's nice to draw air in through those openings. Turn your fans to...

Hey Marc!! Nice looking new steed! Look forward to seeing the build out.... Is it rubber lined?? Lol ! Good to hear from you Amigo ! Pat that dog on the head for us please Cheers! TT
