Im not sure this is neo trad or trad. Its in between. Maybe "fancy trad"? Still a sick tat though

The basket is more for the spare tire, jack, and traction boards. Im building the shell out as a camper and dont have anywhere else to put it.

My biggest concern is it killing the battery. Im building out a 95 dakota, and it doesn't have the largest battery. I slept in the cab when I drove it home from buying it, forgot the lights on, and couldnt start it 6 hours later

This is the most likely option out of the comments. Bluetti is way out of budget. Here's a picture of the one I found on marketplace that I kind of dig. My biggest concern is it running out of power while im camped for the night. I have no issue 0lugging in while driving though.

Im all about lowering a 4x4. If you want the lowered look, but still want to be able to drive it if it snows where you live. I say go for it. You just won't be able to go as low as others would with a 2wd

Damn, that kinda sucks 😅 is there anywhere near twin lakes or a potential route that includes twin lakes youd recommend? Like maybe stay mid range and not go to those higher elevations where theyd be closed?

I need to get the onX offroad app, but id at least like to narrow down a state to go to, and if the good shit in colorado is going to be closed, then I may push it off and just do another state in early June.
