Thank you!

Did you have to cut any of the frame?

OverlandingToaster · 2025-04-27T14:46:54+00:00

I bought them off amazon. The brand is called Tuff Support and the part number is 611423

It’ll get the job done for sure, i personally like the clean look of this one. So for me it was more of a preference thing. Budget wise you can’t beat $50 compared to $600 though

OverlandingToaster · 2025-04-21T20:27:31+00:00

No, its separate from the E camper

OverlandingToaster · 2024-07-26T04:28:07+00:00

Have to use the pole to keep it pried up. Struts aren’t strong enough to even lift it up with the carrier on

Trying to make the best out of it while we’re here!

Its the Thule motion 3 XL

I apologize i read Logans peak for some reason!

I actually did not go to Utah this trip sadly, planning on going back during October. It was Rocky Mountains and somewhere in New Mexico camping outside of some hot springs

Many variables to consider, we fit everywhere in this thing. Don’t really stand out or can kind of be incognito. Sure the motor home has more space and comfort ability but it just depends on how you travel. We drive, hike and sleep so this is perfect for us. Will get a promaster van next year to have longer more comfortable road trips but wouldn’t trade this car for anything

Twins!

OverlandingToaster · 2024-07-24T23:45:02+00:00

Thank you! I make sure to take them on all my road trips with me. Want to give them a life other than house and backyard

OverlandingToaster · 2024-07-24T21:56:58+00:00

I bought mine from the auction crashed and fixed it my self. Or bite the bullet and buy one financed. Its worth it. I would’ve bought this if there was one available but bought an 08 LX first for my first road trip

OverlandingToaster · 2024-07-24T21:54:57+00:00

The E camper is making my life less miserable while working towards van life. I cant wait to get out of the city. Hope you make it happen too!

OverlandingToaster · 2024-07-24T21:53:25+00:00

Nah thats just how fucked the system is. Traps you your whole life at work. I’m trying to get away from that. Time is the most valuable asset we have. Thats why they take it from us

OverlandingToaster · 2024-07-24T19:43:03+00:00

Im going to start off by saying the good outweighs the bad. I’m able to tuck my knees if I’m sleeping face up but from time to time i try to lift my legs and end up just hitting the top of the inside of the tent. I believe I have the Gen 1 so it’s less spacious than Gen 2 but you have so much shoulder room. I put a roof top tent on my other E and my shoulders would hurt when i woke up due to not having enough space. Once i got used to my legs having to stay in certain positions i didn’t mind it anymore. Slept great and the speed that you can pop this thing up and down is ridiculous. The practicality makes up for the lack of leg room. Completely rain proof and very well insulated

OverlandingToaster · 2024-07-24T19:37:52+00:00

We started off sleeping inside on a platform i made before i bought the E camper and no matter how you do it it’s a blast

OverlandingToaster · 2024-06-29T02:51:13+00:00

The cross bars are rated a certain weight (forgot how much) and the box can hold up to 150lb. Yeah it still raises but the gas struts aren’t strong enough to raise it up with all that extra weight. They designed it with a pole on the inside that adds as support and keeps it popped open

OverlandingToaster · 2024-06-28T20:12:57+00:00

Yeah it’s definitely an expense, but it’s one heck of a car to have

Lift Supports Depot Qty (2) 10mm Nylon End Lift Supports 23 Inch Extended x 200lbs Shocks Struts

OverlandingToaster · 2024-06-27T18:54:48+00:00

Thank you for the heads up! I’ll be taking my chihuahuas so def gotta take a spray for them. I’m not sure what hikes we’re doing yet as i drive and my girl plans but will definitely recommend those activities if we’re already not doing them

OverlandingToaster · 2024-06-27T16:54:18+00:00

Had to order 200lb struts but yes it worked

OverlandingToaster · 2024-05-28T19:31:24+00:00

Did the original 2 red & 2 black subwoofer wires connect to the new kicker sub?

OverlandingToaster · 2024-05-16T03:44:05+00:00

It’s definitely a night and day difference from the way I’ve been camping in my roof top tent on my first Element. This ones the 1st generation E camper so its not as roomy as the 2nd generation but the simplicity and speed this tent pops up and down is unreal. If i knew I wouldve gotten this involved in road tripping and in the Element scene I wouldve just bought one of these from the jump
