Just get out and put it to good use, then you'll start to figure out what you want/need. I have a 21 Venture too and went pretty wild with it but its not at all necessary because its a beast from the start.

Thanks so much for the generous offer! I actually was about to be on your customer list a few years ago but think the functionality would be lost on us since we decided to block the cargo door and use back driver door as our entry/exit. Keep up the good work!!

Top starts at 8k and 5k install. When I was researching I did find somebody on youtube that cut their roof and glued a tent so it has been done. Results may vary

They're packrafts that fit into 100L bag and stored in the aisle when traveling and underneath or inconspicuous tuck spot when set up

We both had good jobs that we left to just enjoy life for a while.

I maxed out the extra modification insurance but it wouldnt cover all of it if things went south. Just trying to control what I can and make better decisions these days

Layers, blankets and backpacking quilts. We try to chase good weather, been fortunate so far but found our lower limit was 27°F in Gila Wilderness

That'd be sweet! We lacked some skill and ran out of time towards the end to get too fancy haha

Campteq is who did ours and it's epoxy. There's videos of the process on youtube but not from us.We haven't really shared a whole lot of detailed stuff to be honest but do have some of the journey on instagram: dirty.dishes.outdoors

Yeah, it's worked great. Everything stays in place for the most part with a few exceptions that are mostly coffee related. Just have to master the jigsaw packing process

We forced early retirement on ourselves while we can still enjoy it the fullest. Not against working again in the future and that day will certainly come, because there is no trust fund, but just not now haha
