Camping with your Gladiator

[mx5red]

You don't drive with the tent set up.
You set it up once you are at your destination. Plenty of room for everything else.

Even fit under the tonnue

Well I figured not fully deployed but I wasn’t sure if it stayed half set up or fully boxed up and have to set it all back up. I like the idea and cheap, but don’t like having to take all the stuff out of the bed just to get your bed set up. Damn those RTTs are convenient for that.

We do a lot of camping in the warmer months here in Utah. I tow a 12 foot jumping Jack trailer with A side by side loaded on top.

Haven’t heard of those.. that’s a pretty slick trailer.

Definitely the cheapest “toy hauler” out there. You can also pull the tent out and use it as a walled utility trailer.

Where is that? Western CO? Utah?

Sorry for the delayed response. That's UT. Where CO goes on spring break.

And winter break, and a bit of fall.

I just wish it were a wee bit closer I'd be there every weekend.

I would if I didn’t want to stay married. 4 hours flat for us.

We were at Dinosaur Provincial Park in southern Alberta last weekend. Interesting area.

I’m like the OP. My gladi camping is by toad.

Cabins, WV and Crossville, TN

First time I've seen a pic of 40's on the Gladiator from a distance. To me they look too big for the truck. But then again some say no such thing as too big (that's what she said).

Haha. Very fair opinion.

Decided to do a test run of the new rtt and had the Jeep naked. Of course it had to rain. Luckily the cover for the Smittybilt XL is just the right size to cover the Jeep.

Camping in SunRiver, Oregon for a long weekend.

Near term I actually have a basic tent I plan to use to take my family camping over the coming months, but I have a long term goal of getting a rack and RTT set up someday, perhaps next year.

Of course, I have the problem of there being 4 of us and I question if an RTT would even work, but I can cross that bridge when I get there.
