Did you notice a dust difference on your bikes with the higher mount? I would expect less, but curious. My bikes get super scuzzy on trips.

Awesome looking trip, I like the Polebridge area. NW Montana forests give me the impression a dinosaur is going to pop-out at any moment. I think the mosquitos ate them all though.
Not to much dust IMO.

Finally got the diesel heater wired in and fired up today. First video is heat inside, second is the exhaust out the bumper, third is the noise created by the fuel pump and heater itself starting out open then closed.

Considering getting one of these for my new (to me) 23 Mojave - trying to run something minimalist and still be able to take the top off - anybody have pictures of a Bivy on a gladiator? I asked Ovrlnd and they did not.

also interested if anyone has pictures of chubby vs non chubby version on theirs. Thanks!

No chubbies or bivy that I'm aware of.

Well, we might move to a bigger truck.

If anyone knows someone who may want a good deal on an Ovrlnd camper for their gladiator let me know.

We’re not totally sure of the plan at this point lol. So who knows. Perhaps a chubby on something bigger.

We're in a similar boat, we jumped on a good deal for the F-350 config we wanted. Haven't decided what's going in the back, a slide-in or a chubby. We'll probably keep the OVRLND on our JT for as long as we have the JT, we get a lot of non-camping utility out of it for us.

I get a lot of non camping utility out of the camper as well actually. The interior height is nice even when closed.

Us locals close enough to say the Sierra's need to all get together and do a trip. With or without wives.

On our way back from Glacier we stopped by Action Axle/Overland Vechicle Dynamics AKA @CrazyCooter /Mr. suspension. I finally pulled the trigger on the 2.5 fox elites. Just got back today from an all day trip to dial in some stuff. Rides great, absorbs the road imperfections nicely. I've got plenty of adjustment left to either stiffen in up or soften it up. I think the flex is pretty good to. Drove great on the way home.

Well just got back from another trip down to Death Valley/Warm Springs, ended up doing the Steel Pass Dedecker Canyon over to Eureka Dunes on our way out today. Cam down the waterfalls not to difficult. I imagine going up them would be tougher. No scraping, no damage, even did it with mountain bikes on the rack.
Diesel heater works perfectly too.

Anyone find a good sized screen for the back opening, or side hatches? What are you guys doing to keep bugs out, but want air in?

I have looked at a few options. Mostly from messaging people off of IG. Still not quite sure what to do.
