    @WilliamA is the guy driving an orange 4 dr rubicon? I never remember his name.

    If so he did a nice job. Even came in my neck of tge wood.

    If you want, you coukd come my way and we coukd go for a trip in a area I call tge expense. Mikes and miles of forest road.

    But we are not going there in july. Bear attacks are nothing to tge bug clouds we see during that season. (Bears are usualy by them selfs, and woolves co e in smaller packs, those comes by the millions and in all makes and models)

    🤣

    Spent our first night in our T@G, mind you, in the backyard. Tried out the air conditioner, Fantastic Fan, generator and Television. The TV has the chinciest sounding speakers I've ever heard. We used our Roku device and our Jensen stereo has no HDMI interface so we had to go in the back of the TV. We enjoyed the fresh air for sleeping and woke up feeling much better than we did in a tent. Should've tried levelling it out. bit better as my wife did feel it was off a bit. Will have to oil the door hinges as they're quite squeaky. Didn't sleep the best which was to be expected but overall, a good experience.

    We plan to do the exact same thing this weekend. Backyard camping! Next week, maiden voyage! South Fork of the Boise River!

    My wife and I took a friend from Kansas out to Senator Wash (North of Yuma) and had a great time. Temps in mid/high 90s during the day and mid 60s at night. It is on BLM land, but they charge ($15) if you are right on the water. We paid half price with our lifetime national park access card. Just went for a few days, but it was well worth it. No problems with lithium power and Renogy solar suitcase. Idle the car with a 300 watt inverter to watch a movie or two. Yes camping is "Misery".
    And no it was not three adults and two dogs in the T@G. I was the man out.
    F.Y.I. measured my State Of Charge (SOC) of my 100Ah lithium battery on ride home and got a 11% increase in SOC for the 200 mile ride.

    We’re both fully vaccinated, so we assume all is good for travel.

    Looks like we’ll be heading down the South Coast of Labrador now and then the ferry to Newfoundland. Will spend a few weeks touring the Island.

    We’re into our 6th day on the road and are enjoying most every moment. Our T@G tows great. I think for the next trip I’ll increase our shank from a 4 inch to a 5 inch rise, just to balance it out a bit more. A wifi booster (if they truly work) would be on our list.

    Just returned home last night. Love everything about our T@G. A few dings and scratches in our paint from 2 hrs on gravel road but not bad at all. We did protect it quite well, actually.
