Reata's Build Thread
Here are some pics of my Engel Fridge mounted in the new ride. Enjoy, plugs right in when under way, the power shuts off when the engine is killed, which is a pain in the arss. Once I get my dual batter setup installed, I will be able to run it live as I did in my LR Discovery.

Probably the best mod I ever purchased. This thing makes all vehicle events better. Camping, Football game tailgating, baseball tailgating, kids sports practice, take lunch to work, boating, hunting, fishing, all that stuff.
Plus, it holds a full case of beer!

The sliding floor gave me huge wood when I first saw it. You wouldn't even understand the trouble and expense I went to with my Land Rover to get the thing to slide out. I will post a pic of it later.

I camped quite a bit when I had my Rover. Now I have significant and costly build in front of me with the 4 Runner. Probably going with the ICON lift, an ARB bullbar (no winch), install HAM radio, CB Radio, Hella 1000 Lights, dual battery system, roof rack, Authome roof top tent, and drawer system, then I will get back at it.
Had a great trip in my Rover two years ago. Drove to Walsenberg CO, and then all off road from there to Crested Butte. Criss-crossing over several mountain passes, camping out the whole way. It was a blast. Not really knarly off-road, but no pavement. A few areas that were rough but nothing that I could really get stuck on?

Schrockworks Sliders ordered!!!
Should be here in two months!!!
I cannot wait to lie down on our 140 degree concrete and get them installed. I need an Antman as well, with a nice clean garage and HVAC in the shop. I bet there is a beer tap, fridge, manicurist (for when Sp8dball visits), and a jacuzzi to work out the kinks after a hard day of working on mods!!
You guys are the greatest. I am working to change the name of this thread to Reata's Build Thread. Working to contact a moderator. Anyone know the handle of a moderator?
P.S. Also have my eye on a Gobi Stealth rack!!! Hopefully, the lottery will hit me in the head soon.....stay tuned to the build. It will be slow (due to lack of dough $$$) but lots of fun.

The Moderators are listed on the lower right of the 5th Gen home page- I'm sure you could PM one to get the thread name changed.
Don't I wish I had a beer tap and fridge! Gave the mini fridge up to the wife a few months back. I do have a zillion candlepower of lights in the ceiling, HVAC, a ceiling fan, exhaust fan, wired stereo, cable TV, and a diamondplate step. Mancave! My wife gets mad when I wax the floor too... I have issues.
Can't wait to see your buildup- I wish we could hookup for some mods!
