    great video. newbie class b with propane generator built in, but AC the game changer and keeping batteries topped off. wasting a lot of time trying to determine wattage. your video answered that, great tips as well. hoping i can connect inverter generator directly to the on board tank (30 gal). size/weight seem to keep improving with these generators, soaring demand in RV world, almost turned into a must have. my QUESTION is are lithium batteries with no panels with a convertor to recharge to 100% a option. That might be an investment worth doing, Is that a option you see happening out there?. GOAL boondock 3 to 4 days no worries with 13.5 AC and headroom like you said., have 2 basic marine batteries currently. subscribed and learning about other topic you covered thanks again thanks for sharing knowledge, experience and the all considerations with these gadgets

    This may sound like a joke, but I'm comparing a 2024 Nissan Titan Pro 4x to a 2024 Jeep Gladiator Mojave. I love a full size truck when taking people and towing. But, I don't do that very often. Usually it is just my wife and I. I have some trails I want to use to get to some remote fishing locations. But, I don't NEED to get there in my truck. I can hike. I have a F-150 now. It gets us just about anywhere we have wanted to go. I just have this idea that if I go with a midsize Gladiator I might do more adventuring. I really like the Titan, and you can get a great deal on one now. This is really perplexing to me which way to go.

    We use a "SoftStartUp" to run our air conditioner. It plugs directly into the generator. No need to wire anything. It also allows you to use other things that need more power on startup, than your generator can handle.

    IMO RRT are for getting into the back country to hunt, fish, hike etc. Get down some back country two track, set up for a day or two, do your thing, then move on to the next spot. I don't see these as the best option for a several day family camping vacation at a state park. Also, I have my IKamper mounted on my Colorado, I started with a cab high rack, but quickly moved to a low mount, which eliminates many of the problems stated in this video. Easily fits in the garage, I can open it and dry in there, better highway mpg, and I can set it up while standing on the ground. I take my RRT off in late Oct, and put it back on in late March. Thank you for this video, however many of the con's are easily solved.

    I have to agree on alot of what you say. I sold my ram for one. Thumbs up for looks, cool factor and versatility!!! I find I do the same thing. I do the same thing when I park it, I turn around a look at it and say to myself, "Whata beauty!" Mine is the WILLYs because it's conservative. It has the jeep history and all the off road capability, yet like my personality it isn't flashy like the Rubicon. I've wanted one since the concept was first talked about, a decade ago. I'm 74 ands it's the best vehicle I have EVER bought!!!

    It was my favorite vehicle and waited a long time for it to be released to get one. Got me the Rubicon with every package and everything went well until the infamous ticking noise impacting many Mopar engines. Was noticeable at 62k miles, right after the warranty expired and since it is a flaw with the engine rest assured it will happen again. Had to get rid of it, I am still sad and disappointed. 😔

    Hi, I have looked at a number of travel trailers and have owned two in the past as in decades ago. One was an Avon. The other was a 23 foot terry. It weighed 4700 pounds loaded with gear less water. (Water was carried in the front and virtually all of that weight went on the tongue and rear bumper. My interest is in the smaller single axe trailers. Other than the Happier Camper HC1 Breeze, models like the Colman 17B or 17R which are minimum content light weight stick and tin trailers are what I go for. Except for the azdel walls and construction, I am of the opinion that the newer 24 model year entry level trailers are the best value for your money. And for the most part, they are assembled using most of the same parts as the higher content more expensive models. Keep it simple. A box with a comfortable bed, roomy toilet/shower, small cook top, microwave, refrigerator and lounge chair/sofa with a floating table and your golden.
