It is tough to get a measurement of the gap, the roof line is slightly arched and then there are the raised ribs. The front edge towards at the center of the GFC sits about 5/8” from the roof. At the rib it is probably less than 1/2”. At the sides it is 1 3/8”.

Mojave wheels also have a 37.17 mm offset. While the Rubicon/Sport wheels have 44.45 mm offset. So Mojave has a little bit extra poke.

I’m up in the mountains of east San Diego County. But I drop into “town“ often. Let me see what my Wife and I might have planned this weekend.

I had the ARB 2500x2000 Awning mounted to the CVT using their Mt Hood Side-Awning Brackets. Having the ARB Deluxe Awning Room gives an amazing amount of living space when not moving often.

What a fun and hard question to answer. My wife and I just completed a 2200 mile round trip adventure to Colorado from So California to see our son. I think I agree with the 12v Fridge listed above, having cold drinks and food handy along the route kept us happy and not reliant on fast food. We...

No regrets, it works well for us. There of course are trade offs, its right at seven feet as it sits now so doesn’t fit in the parking structure at work, dropped to 18 mpg average, can‘t store much bedding upstairs, GFC’s tent design doesn’t provide much ventilation to combat condensation. But...

I assume you’re asking about the Mt Hood size, it is the small 50” wide model. I have since moved on to another camping setup, but I did really like this setup. Its modularity allowed me to drop weight and gain MPGs when I wasn’t actively traveling. The SmartCap was well made and super...

Cool thread idea. Having prior experience building the 2007 JKU I knew I wanted to take this build slow. Started off with a great deal in 2020 (early pandemic pricing) Sport S in the color I wanted on the lot. Would have liked to have the 8.4 screen, aux switches, remote start, and front...

In Go Fast Camper’s latest video on YouTube (South of the blowhole), racing across the desert, lost control, went off the road, crashing, resulted in a bent frame. I assume the added weight and leverage of the spare tire carrier plus 37 didn’t help one bit.

Picked my GFC up beginning of July, it has worked out well for our style of camping and recreation.

My RSI EVOSport was a great cap, but I’m really happy I jumped to a GFC Camper. GFC announced they are going to start building toppers, made in USA.

And that feature had me thinking that’s kind of cool. It will no doubt be interesting to see how it’s rolled out and used. For me I’m certain it can’t replace the functionality of an InReach in the backcountry. I wonder how weboost and Starlink will be justified by overlanders for...

i don’t think this iPhone feature turns the inReach into doo doo. The iPhone will just be another option in an emergency. The fact they set up a “relay“ to receive emergencies and contact the appropriate first Responders is cool and should limit unnecessary “emergency” responses. The iPhone...

I just saw on another thread (RSI SmartCap) a new camper on the market, that is also a knock off of Alu-Cab in a lot of respects. The Gaia Truck Camper, I do like its tent doors/windows. I wouldn’t trade my GFC, but it’s another option out there. Oh, and it’s a better price than the Camp King...

Yeah I don’t know if I’m looking at the right camper, but the one you linked to shows a price of $12,999. My GFC installed was just over $8,000. the Camper King looks like a knock off of Alu-Cab, but the Alu-Cab is cheaper by a few hundred bucks (shipped from Ok4WD). I’m all for seeing other...

Ran up to Mammoth Lakes for a quick weekend trip. Stayed in Old Shady Rest CG, but main focus was paddle boarding on Lake Mary. This pic was taken at the lake while GFC was in “changing room” mode.

When I put on the Falken Wildpeak MT on my Sport S I found 33.13 put my speedo spot on compared to GPS.

Currently working with J33ptruck who is in Southern California too, but will let you know if it falls though. My plan it to run straight up I15 when I go up to pick up the GFC, and I will have a very limited timeline to make the trip, so won't be able to divert to Colorado.

I’m running 33s, with 1.5” leveling kit. It rides real nice and fuel economy didn’t take a big hit.

I haven’t experienced any leaks with this cap, it’s solid. I have read about some owners having issues with the positive pressure air vent on top, but I have not noticed any water intrusion. That could be because I don’t use drive through car washes or higher pressure water hoses, which seemed...
