Picked up my new 2019 Tag XL Edge last Thursday and drove it straight to the mountains for it's first shake down trip. No problems or issues to report but sure did draw some attention at the campground. I thought my A Frame camper drew attention, gave a bunch of tours of my Tag.

    Looks great, what kind of awning are you using in back? We just picked up out Boondock last week and love it!

    It's called a Hasika Awning cost about $100.00. It is very easy to setup and is perfect for the galley area.

    I really like seeing the Boondock Edge XL out setup, that's what I have my eyes fixed upon and if I can get a good deal I'm pulling the trigger this week on getting one on order.

    Sweet setup, I'm still figuring out what type of awning I want from the Galley and I really do like that one, some have suggest the big 10x10 as well, not sure just yet.

    Make sure you get a couple good suction cup mounts for the Hasika as the ones that come with it are worthless.

    I forgot about the suction cup upgrade, they really work well. I am located in PA. right near the MD. Line.

    I did a few small things to the camper when I got home this afternoon.
    Conditioned all of the rubber gaskets/seals with silicone.
    Applied Blue Loctite to all of the galley latches and screws.
    Applied HD Velcro to the bottom of the Norcold fridge, prevent fridge from moving on shelf.
    Applied two coats of wax.
    Added fitted sheets.
    Fun stuff, always enjoy this type of stuff!

    Fantastic. Really like the awning mount job. You’ll like it recessed from the side like you have it.

    New guy here. Your pictures show a generator on the tongue. I was under the impression that the propane tank and battery were about as much weight as the tongue could handle safely. Can you add a generator to the tongue and still be okay?

    The front part of the rack is actually designed to hold/fit a 2000 watt generator, so no problem. The issue you could have is relative to your tow vehicles tongue weight limit. My Tacoma is not even close..

    I might pick one up in the future for myself, I'll have to see what the Outback is rated for.

    My question does that generator even have a 30AMP plug? Or are you not concerned with the AC or Microwave?

    My generator doesn't have a 30 amp plug, but runs my AC just fine. Just have to use the adapter.
