My family of 4 uses a ground tent. I use a hitch cargo carrier and roof rack for storage. Keep the Setpower fridge in the back of the Bronco Sport. Right now we don’t power station so we stay at state parks with full power. Just getting the little ones out in the woods right now and making memories. Thanks for the video Matt!

@aMAYSingLife Жыл бұрын

@@MikaelErminger I replied to your email. But for those who wont see that, developing bags for the bronco in that specific area is going to be more complicated because there just isn't the same amount of room inside the cabin as in the Jeep. It will be a challenge for sure. Not saying I wont do it at some point in the future but there needs to be enough demand to warrant it and there just isn't quite yet.

My wife and I live outside Branson and are just getting into overlanding and are trying to figure it all out. We have a 2003 Jeep TJ with a cedar ridge teardrop trailer. We are going to be at overland expo mountain west in August so this video definitely helps to know what others are using. I enjoy seeing all the new gear from the expo's but would much rather see videos like this one that showcases peoples actual setups and see what works in real world applications. Keep the videos coming we look forward to seeing what's next. Maybe a walkthrough of others setups at the expo?

@gods_country_overland Жыл бұрын

Great highlight video on setups. One of the things i love about what we do, there is no one way or best way to setup. Budget or high end builds all work. So many ways to do it. Find what works for each person and just get out and do it. Great stuff Matt.

The only problem with a truck is the dust collection in the bed when you go through desert. I know where you live is not as dusty but in California deserts you would hate it, unless you fully cover it so you don’t get dust in the bed. Btw, you got a flat on your front driver side 😂😂😂
