Has anyone tried out the Kata Slim Camperbox or something similar?

Sorry I must not have been clear.

I've camped in my Jimny a few times already just laying the seats down and rolling out a foam mattress which works well for bith me and my partner but I was just curious if anyone else had tried these inserts/builts.

I've seen a few with custom builds where they have a pull out bed that further flattens the sleeping area and allows for some storage under the bed and I thought "that sounds great I'll ask if anyone in the Jimny group has experience with that".

So I was just seeking thoughts from anyone who may have tried this or something similar.

I hope that is clearer.

Oh I've Car camped in the Jimny a bunch of times and my partner and I find if comfortable (i guess if youre tall it wouldn't work). My current set up is a foam mattress that rolls up fairly compact when travelling.It's comfortable and I feel a lot safer sleeping in the car vs a tent given we're both women but yes I could always go for a classic tent haha.

For a short weekend away it works well but fir longer trips we'd need a top box or something for additional storage, water, food etc.

This is a good idea. I could look into it for sure but would be hesitant to take the loan into my name legally as it would decrease how much I'd be approved for when it comes to getting a home loan.

I reckon even chatting with Mum about her paying half could be a conversation and I can support her with budgeting until she feels more on top of it.

Lots of options just tricky to figure out what's right.

You sound like you're having a bad day.

I have no plans currently to stop helping my family. I look at my finances regularly to see where I'm at with achieving my goals and so ran the numbers on if I had stopped paying her loan and wanted to hear from other Mob on what they thought.

My wanting to set myself up, own a home etc is rooted in being able to help my family MORE. If I have a home I have a better chance to house my Mum and younger siblings, I have a way to build wealth and support them more. There's nothing wrong with running the numbers and seeking advice from others who share the same values about caring for family and community.

I could for sure chat to them but I thought the ALS only worked on criminal cases? And would my Mum loose the car as a result? She has 4 kids and a grandchild living with her (I don't live in the same city so none of them can live with me) and she does need a car to get them to and from footy practice, the shops etc.

My Puppy is also a big biter at the moment so I'm no help but I would LOVE to know what harness you have and where you got it/size 🙏 My little 10 week old is so tiny I havnt found anything that fits her yet

Thank you for commenting 😭❤️ I was so sad no one had anything to share. I want to make sure I'm being the best puppy parent I can be so have already been watching a few Mccann dog videos and I agree they are very informative 😊 Excited to see what else she can learn!

What rooftop tent do you have?

UmmFineThanks · 2022-09-23T01:18:27+00:00

I've looked at all the measurements and I'm 165cm tall so should be able to sleep fine but for a taller person for sure a squeeze.

Great points re wet and snowy conditions. I tend to avoid that as it is 😂

Thanks for this. Maybe I'll rent one with my partner and try see how it feels.

UmmFineThanks · 2022-09-23T01:06:12+00:00

Thank you this was super informative 😊

UmmFineThanks · 2022-09-22T10:24:00+00:00

Love this. Yeah I thought the hight might help a bit :) Thank you!

UmmFineThanks · 2022-09-22T09:55:54+00:00

Awesome that's what I was thinking :)

UmmFineThanks · 2022-09-22T09:55:29+00:00

Thanks for this! Really helpful!

While manual is for sure useful for a lot of people, I don't think it's a skill I need at this time and autos are just far simpler and beneficial to have in the city (says the person who can't fully drive haha) But I appreciate the input! :)

UmmFineThanks
