Here is my little bundle of joy, Willow. She is a 45lb lab/hound/who knows what mix who was found tied to a tree (yes it was a willow tree, so the name stuck). She likes to camp and hike with me, but is really keen on hogging all the pillows.

Took the long way home

Yes I would be interested... Rumors are that Dirty Turtle Off Road park is re-opening under new ownership. It is in Bedford roughly 11 miles west of Carrollton. I think that would be a pretty good mid-point for folks in the Louisville area, Lexington area and NKY area (that is if it really is...

The only time I used my stock roof rack was to bring home my new after market rack... as for weight, I believe it is about 150lbs evenly distributed.

I'm pretty positive it will not fit in the trunk. Ratchet strap it to the stock rack as nice farwell! :thumb:

I think your actual tire size on a 17" wheel is going to be the determining factor in whether or not there is any rubbing. I currently am running 265/70/17 (SR5 stock size) BFG ATs on 17x8.5 Level 8 trackers (-6 offset IIRC). I haven't done any mods to the fender wall , and I haven't had any...

Tenatively in for this event... I'm thinking there is a wedding I may have to attend, but I might be getting the dates mixed up. At least I hope I am!

It's an Antman inspired home-made awning. Just a tarp, some electrical conduit and poly rope. And yes I'm very happy with it since it cost me roughly $28 and a couple hours to make!

Finally got off the pavement and got some time in the tent. Still need to fine tune the awning set up, but it held up really well in the wind over night.

The standard rack does not, but you can always to talk Alex about adding them. You could also ask him about about adding custom mounting brackets if you already have your lights picked out. I went with the standard rack just due to the uncertainity of the light setup I would eventually go with...

1) I don't really use sat radio, so I couldn't really tell you. Sorry! 2) It's an AVS aeroskin. Not really a bug deflector though. More of a additional layer over the leading edge to protect paint from rocks and such.

Been busy. Took advantage of the nice weather to re-do plastidip on some trim pieces. I think the matte silver bits popping out look a lot better than the all-black I did before. Also created an Antman specialty awning for about $25. New wheel and tire combo is on but I don't have pictures yet...

Re-adjusted the fairing and gave Alex a shout out on the back. Already received a bunch of compliments on the rack. It's awesome!

Yes you can do both if you want. You'll just have to adjust the angle the fairing sits on your roof.
