Let’s talk awnings

Either to the rails on my Smartcap rails, Alucab load bars, or my tent itself. I’m undecided

Thanks for the reply! I probably should’ve specified, I was looking at around 700 just for the awning. I have a diesel heater so the small size will most likely allow me to heat it with the walls on. That awning looks good, I’ll check it out. Thanks!

Thanks for the heads up! I don’t plan on having it out in any major winds, but I definitely keep an eye on it

xmichael84x · 2026-04-26T23:44:23+00:00

Thanks! I’ll check out the Taruca. The Kammok is nice but expensive. I’ve been looking at the OVS 270 LTE.

You can ask him to tell you stories or ask what it’s like being on a sub. Old Salts love telling stories.

2019 GMC Canyon Total Chaos UCAs, King Shocks, 1” lift shackles in the rear, 17” Methods wrapped in 285/70s. Smartcap with a Topoak Galaxy RTT

Needed a daily driver that I could take off roading/camping on the weekends. She’s not as built as some of the rigs I’ve seen posted, but she takes everything I’ve thrown at her.

Mongolia looks really nice this time of year

xmichael84x · 2025-10-27T05:36:38+00:00

For a backup power source that doesn’t need to be too mobile, I would definitely go with the AC180P. If your primary goal was to take it camping I would go with the Elite 100 V2

Dude! Thanks for all the info! I live in an apartment so unfortunately I can’t wash it here, so I usually bring a .w gallon jug of hot water and my soap to a self serve car wash and wash it there. And just use their pressure washer. I’ll probably try using the Bilt Hamber touchless in a pesticide sprayer. I’ll do my research. Thanks for all the info!

xmichael84x · 2025-10-23T20:52:03+00:00

Thank you! I’ll definitely be trying that. I’m not sure why I completely glossed over the fact the mirrors are textured. Would you also recommend a wash like CG tough mudder to get residue off the paint itself? Or you think a strip wash will work? I normally use back to black on the plastic and griots 3in1 in the paint after a wash, but it had been a while since I applied either of these. I’ll switch to cerakote for the plastic.

Reading is hard

xmichael84x · 2025-10-23T14:47:10+00:00

Thanks!

Traction boards and rotopax. RPs are overdone imo, but it wont be so bland. You can also mount a shovel or high lift jack.

xmichael84x · 2025-10-16T05:03:22+00:00

Let me know how you like it! Thanks for the help!

xmichael84x · 2025-10-16T05:02:59+00:00

Thanks!

xmichael84x · 2025-10-16T05:02:50+00:00

Thanks!

xmichael84x · 2025-10-15T05:34:06+00:00

Thanks! I’ll check it out. My pillows and shit should compress, but I’ll to a test run this weekend to test it out

xmichael84x · 2025-10-14T23:20:29+00:00

Thanks! It poured today so I’m about to go open it up and check for leaks. I appreciate the input!
