I may go a different direction in the future, but for the first 4 years, I'd have to say my DiamondBack bed cover and Yakima rack.

That's a really nice duo! Bet that's seen a lot of adventures.

I have all kinds of things on my sleeper Mojave , bumper, winch, cap, air compressor ,full belly skids, dual battery, fridge, solar panels Armorlite flooring , Mopar CAI, performance steps, but every time I climb I in my jeep day or night, sun or rain I smile when looking at my SKY365 sunroof. We did notice driving in over 100 degree temps the glass is cooler in the sun then the rest inside of hard top , no road noise no matter how fast we are going, we think it is quieter then the freedom panels and it is lighter by a few pounds, we can talk while driving , but again everytime I smile.
It’s not cheap (made in USA)but it is my best mod by far…..so far!😂

It's been great. Easy to add our subtract to meet need. Most often I've just used the cross bars that allow the DiamondBack to open front and rear. But the platform and side panels will adapt to carry anything.

Installing the Long Range America auxiliary fuel tank. It's nice being able to go 600 miles on a single fuel up.

I can't sit more than three hours or so and I gotta make a lap around a gas station 🤣

BUT with my commuting these days I wouldn't mind having the capacity just to not stop twice a week some weeks for gas.

For sure.

Gas station situation is a bit different an hour from New Orleans 😂

I remember the time we got deep in southwest Texas and gas stations were getting SCARCE. We weren't use to that. I don't even drive across that side of the country without a gas can anymore.

Yeah, we go out into the middle of Nevada, and mileage plummets when you are picking your way across the valleys and hills. Having the extra tank allows me to stay away from "civilization" for as long as I have water.

This is where we spend a lot of our time.

Oh I miss the west. Gong back soon!

Yea we ran into that in New Mexico but with the wind.

Going west we were getting 15-16MPG at 70 MPH.

Going back east a week later we were getting 20-22MPG at 78 MPH.

Dang wind direction and nothing to block it 😂
