  • Camping on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon with 25 other E3 Overland members that all have some well built everyday man's builds, I pull the camera out and walk around and see what kind of gear they have and how they have outfitted their vehicles. We'll take a look at a few Jeep Wranglers, a couple Jeep Gladiators, a Ford Raptor and F250, a Hummer H3T truck, Toyota Tacoma and more.

    Some REI stores carry them. They also come in a different style (lower back) and has a strap for easier transport around camp. Fabric is easily removable to launder.

    Nice cover of all the vehicles. Over the years I've paired down to a set way of doing things. My newest rig is a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek Sport .. Lifted, all terrains ,and skid plate. I am always amazed at how much stuff people carry with them. Tents are a thing of the past for me at 76 years old .. I sleep in the car .. no more tents for me. I never carry a cooler because when empty they are still there taking up space. I've figured out meals that don't require a cooler or fridge. Did Tooroweap a few years ago with my other rig .. a 2001 Ford Explorer Sport 2Dr. The North Rim is amazing!

    Love looking at all the solutions people come up with. I have yet to see one like mine. I have a short box 4x4 GMC and I use a home made deck system in the back and use a Kodiak tent to sleep on top of the deck system. A queen size air mattress and we hav plenty of room for all our gear. You should check out Kodiak truck tents made in the USA. They make one that would fit your power wagon for the times when you want to have a lighter setup.

A Snugtop Camper shell on my 04 Tundra. My 04 Tundra just turned 160,000 miles. But it is still well maintained. My camping gear is secure and weatherproof. The 1st Gen Tundra chassis is about the same as the current Tacomas..... But it has a 4.7 liter V8.
