Before I start investigating, anyone else develop leaks in the first set of pads (the ones attached to roll bar) on their Backbone system?
Mine have been dry during their first two years but seem to have sprung a leak.
Can someone explain why some 4Runners and Defenders have a ladder attached to them? I just step up on the tires or the bumper of my Wrangler when I need to access the cargo hardware on top. Those SUV roof ladders seem useless and also undersized. I can understand why a conversion van or...
I’m not liking the nylon bag that came with my Camp Chef Explorer model 2 burner stove. Can’t believe they sell it separately for $44. Anyone out there find a case that might be suitable? Doesn’t have to be outdoor-grade like a Pelican/Hardigg or Roam Adventure Gear. If the Plano Sportsman...

Awning in a hard shell is a great idea that seems like a no-brainer compared to all the fabric awning bags but the price is crazy.
I have the plain black hardtop that has a few small (~1/4”) spots where the black surface has worn away and the white composite material underneath is exposed. Suggestions on suitable protection to prevent further wear? Automotive touch up paint?
Stellantis CEO makes a lot of sense in this interview with Yahoo Finance. He’s fundamentally decided that being a realist is the better strategy than being a visionary when it comes to being the head of a major auto maker. I probably will be looking to make a BEV my next car purchase (which...
