    We didn't fill the tank till it was consistently over freezing, just blow the system out and your golden for sub zero camping. Have to test a new anti moisture set up in our trailer. Being on the West coast thats the only draw back in the colder winter camping is the condensation build up.

    LR4 Runningboards

    Almost any running board can be used as a slider... just a one time use tho... All seriousness, I wouldn't recommend it only going to lead to future headaches

    Yea fair enough not worth the risk of wrecking something. For your insulation project what did you end up using?

    Good to know, we ran a diesel/kerosene furnace system in our RTT that sipped on fuel but only ran it when we went to bed and sporadically through out the day. Curious what the coldest temps the water system could be subjected to before there was a failure... not that i want to go out and test...

    We just pulled the trigger finally one on. What would be peoples recommendations for winter use? Talking that -5 to -15C range. We camp all year round, and when it is not in use it will be parked in our garage.

    Question for existing owners since I have not been able to see one in person yet. Is it possible to have rear recovery points fabricated or incorporated with these trailers? We tend to go down fairly technical trails year round, especially in the winter time I feel like there will potential...

    On the same thought pattern.. I personally do not know of enough about trailers yet (not enough research or time spent). However, if the trailer frame itself is built as solid as described, plus a skid plate adds that additional cross rigidity it logic tells it should. This is basing on...

    Anyone located around the Vancouver, BC area that owns a Summit trailer that my wife and I would be able to take a look at? Would like to see one in person before we pull the trigger on it. Also I noticed they do not have rear recovery points, I figure a decent fabricator would be able to add...

    LR3 dog stuff

    For the tail gate, my plan one of these days was to dismantle it and wrap the carpet with a thing rubber liner (probably glue it to the carpet or tear off the carpet completely so its rubberized. Hopefully keep that zone cleaner

    Aluminum cover for RTT???

    Sometimes if the trails are brutally over grown ill throw a single max track between my light bar and tent. Use a ratchet strap to hold it in place. Works really well when your blasting your way through a trail at low speeds....
