I don't mind at all! Packing for four is a chore! When the whole gang is in the Jeep I put my stove inside the box where the toilet is in the video. The toilet will then go above the box with the kitchen container and some other light weight items. I'm trying a Front Runner wolf pack right now and I have some pelican cases. I'm considering swapping them all for Rubbermade containers as they're a ton lighter and cheaper! The toilet shelter folds into a disc and it rides behind my XGcargo gama bags along with the window screens and windshield cover. I stack the downstairs mattress and sleeping bags, pillows on top of that and lash it all down to the tiedowns. This kills the view out the back widow, but it's next to worthless already! I keep the underside of the rear seats clear for folding down, but it does allow a spot for my daughters to have their personal travel bags. Everything they need for travel is then within their reach. My Ursa minor holds all the bedding for upstairs, and then I add a hitch rack for the cooler, BBQ, etc.. The hitch rack isn't ideal but it's the best solution to keep the weight low, versus throwing it up on the roof. The roof is reserved for my cheap walmart kayaks that we splash around in on the shoreline of lakes. I'm not doing any rock crawling, mostly highway, gravel and dirt roads so the setup works well enough. I have a hitch rack bag that I use to keep the dust to a minimum. Obviously, when traveling with four it's important to limit what you take, but I am not a total minimalist and want my wife and kids comfortable. If it's just me solo everything will pack in the Jeep easily for several days. On a side not, I would love to add a fridge some day but for right now we don't go long enough to justify the expense or complexity. If I was ten years older and the kids out I would replace the sleeping platform with a fridge tray. Future mods will hopefully be a tailgate table and a new set of shoes as time and money allow!
