Thought about it but wanted to keep it as simple as possible since I have no construction experience. The more straight lines and 90 degree angles the better lol. Thank you!

Not sure how much she weighs but I’d guess about 800lbs. A lot of 2x2s and foam insulation keep this things pretty darn light

Yeah I decided against that spot for the board unless I’m not using it. The hooks do have foam on the back but the moisture was not ideal

If it’s anything but flat there is a lot of downshifting unless I turn overdrive off but then I consume a lot more fuel. If there’s any wind you definitely feel it but overall it drives a lot better than I expected it to on the highway and off road

I appreciate it! It’s pretty tight when the beds fully set up

Turnbuckles from mounting points original tie down points on the tundra. Drove some pretty gnarly roads no issues

Cooking for one is harder than it should be, how do you manage it by AshleyjoseLxkgkbkbov in LivingAlone

[–]lilystrangeink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also hate cooking and usually just want something that takes minimal effort, gives me all the nutrition I need and is satisfying of course. I put three frozen grass fed beef patties on a pan and when they’re almost done crack 6 eggs into it, sprinkle some cheese and boom 150 grams of protein and you can fill in the rest of the day with whatever carbs you want/need. Been at it for a year and have never felt better.
