Do you keep the window frames on just to keep things straight while fabricating and then cut them off at the end?

No. This is the way that you can run snaps or velcro around the window area. Let's you make a containment area. Cold in the morning at 7500 ft. If you look at last set, customer did NOT want window frame.

Space is always a premium when loaded down for long trips.

Each of those rotopaks weighs 16.4 lbs.

I'd be a little nervous with 32.4 lbs. of gasoline containers hanging up behind my seats. :disturbed:

I never did like packing gas jugs, but sometimes extra fuel is necessary to go extra miles. :gap:

Gnarls..., this wasn't luck that got me to this area. The wife and I knew we wanted to be out of city limits. My wife was applying for jobs in the area. It took 3 years to find the right one. The lucky part for me was finding this Friendly, Attractive, best friend that I call my wife...   :thumbs:

OVRAROK I’m not too far away from Folsom. Next time I’m in the area I’m going to have to take a look for myself. Nothing like seeing things in person.
