    Cots talk

    Another vote for Roll-a-cot. They are aluminum, so they are light weight, but also very durable. I bought 3 for the family over a decade ago, and after using them multiple times every year, they look almost brand new.

    How noisy are aluminum storage cases?

    Trying to decide between the Zarges and Wolf Packs. It sounds like you prefer the Wolf Pack over the Zarges. Who makes the Storm cases?

    How noisy are aluminum storage cases?

    What ABS bins did you go with? Most thin-walled plastic bins I have looked at have angled sides and overlapping lids which make them way less efficient space-wise.

    Kodiak Bow Flex for Beach Camping

    I just checked, and it turns out I didn't buy 18". Instead, I got 24" x .5" lag bolts, and I do think they are sufficient at Pismo. I bought them on Amazon when they went on sale.

    Favorite car camping sleeping bag

    Cabela's Alaskan Guide -20deg bag Another vote for the Cabela's Alaskan Guide -20deg bag. Nice down top, but synthetic below, since it gets compressed anyway. squared off corners with good air circulation control for when it gets really cold

    Armada questions

    I've got a 2010 Armada that I bought new and it is still on its first set of brakes at 60K miles and the rear HVAC lines are fine... ...as is the paint.

    Anyone use a Vestibule Wing accessory for Kodiak 10' Canvas Tents

    I have the Kodiak 10x10 and am considering this vestibule. It might be nice for a wind-protected place to cook. I would like to see it in person before buying it, though...
