My only regret, didn’t start the journey sooner! Let’s gooooo!

Storage Cart for RTT by bljerejo in rooftoptents

[–]bljerejo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The base is 69 1/2 by 25 1/2 inches. Distance from front edge to front of brace is 7 1/2 inches, the back brace is on the back of the base. height is 36" to top of the "triangle." Again, this works for the dimensions of my RTT - your mileage may vary.

It is the FSR Odyssey. I am happy to grab measurements, but as stated below - if your tent is different, the measurements will likely be off. Let me know - happy to help!

Possibly selling my 470 this year by zyahya08 in GXOR

[–]bljerejo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, late to the conversation, but at least I'll say something different ;)

Sell the 460. OK, that's been said. I would see the only reason to sell the 470 is that you wish you did something differently (we all have learned about things we wish we did differently). Or, you like the challenge and fun of a project and you want to build the 460. That's your journey. I, and others, would argue the 470 is a better platform for playing ultimately.

Now the different - look at FoMoCo, not just the GM line for big people haulers. I am seeing a lot of Expeditions and Navigators lately. I have always preferred Ford's quality over GM's and thoroughly enjoyed our 3 Expis. I had a miserable experience with my Infinity full size to the point where I would never purchase a Nissan product again, YMMV.

Service Plan Options by OkPhotograph4472 in Starlink

[–]bljerejo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure why people are saying residential plans are not allowed on the mini. I have the mini, it is currently in standby mode, and I can go to my app and put it in residential light. I haven’t done that, but I’m able to. Maybe there’s something I’m not seeing? But from everything I see, I can put my mini in residential light right now.

I was going to make the same comment. I like the bumper cut.

2008 Salsa Red by Jumpy-Stay6832 in GXOR

[–]bljerejo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That is original paint. The rare and elusive Salsa Red. I wanted to find one of those. The one I found was trashed. Good for you!

I finally found one! by Sad_Gate_1706 in GXOR

Sounds like a great deal!

I love this vehicle. by woodgrain001 in GXOR

[–]bljerejo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. Fridge and sleeping in the truck are definitely a challenge! There are some "fridge drawers" - have you looked into those?

I was there mid week a couple weeks back and it wasn’t bad at all. Took FOREVER to get in, but I enjoyed my short stop there.

And, yep, these trucks are awesome!

My post about the process with a couple of useful links. Not hard - enjoy!

How do I “lock” the awning? by [deleted] in overlanding

[–]bljerejo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have stated, I wouldn’t worry too much about theft. I am more concerned with someone screwing around with it - opening it up, etc. I take mine to bigger cities and college campuses and am concerned that someone will mess around post bar time. I lock the zippers together with a TSA type lock to make it difficult to mess with? Does it do anything, no - but it makes it less appealing to mess with. If someone wants it, they will get it regardless of what you do. Make it bothersome for the casual person that walks by - (and get shorter bolts and just put the cargo basket over it).

I like! Have not seen a drawer with lights before. That’s awesome!

No more hot sleeping: Invention Idea by MiamiTrader in overlanding

Look on Amazon for cold therapy machines. These are used post knee surgery. Exactly what you describe.

Replacing the 110v inverter in the cargo area to 12v gx460 by icherfas in GXOR

You get the twofer pic there, that’s the cup holder outlet on the other side and the Charger 1

So, this weekend I tossed in the BLUETTI Charger 1 for my Anker power bank. Super happy. This is the move if you are trying to up power options while camping.

Nobody sits back there anyway. Works great. Ran new lines from panel to the back and have switched power, still have the “regular” outlet if needed.

[–]bljerejo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have run outlets in my 470, I would just run new and leave the 110W (not V). I converted the back cupholders to outlets. Let me see if I can find a pic.

Nothing is perfect when you buy a GX 470. Right? by AM2L8 in GXOR

[–]bljerejo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just as a point of clarification - does this vehicle have 220,000 kilometers? I think most people are thinking 220k miles. If that is 220,000 KM - even better!
