RTT = Roof Top Tent. a self contained tent that attaches to a roof rack and folds out to deploy, cool expensive and not nearly big enough for me. Besides at o dark early i don't want to try and navigate a ladder while rushing to pee behind a tree :)
looking awesome OddBall, Question, Can you turn the rig a full 90deg without hitting? the trailer looks close. You may want to consider extending the trailer tongue if possible to allow for some greater articulation when in a "tight" spot. I guess it depends on where you plan on dragging the...
Was looking at your A3 would love to buy it but I am afraid you are a tad too far for me to get it. Which sucks as I really want an A3 to compliment my A1, the extra width would be perfect.
I use a couple of large chain links, the type that screw open and closed on my hitch chain loops and the chains just reach and hook onto those. works great and allows me to chain the trailer for safety. I can post pic when I get home, I have to hook up to haul a load to the dump tomorrow.

Look cool. Can wait to see the final product.
Ok, so I'm guessing at 6'8" and 250 I should think Crew cab mod. My 38" inseam might make shifting an issue. Time to win the Lottery and buy one of CC equipments Crew Cabs. I will accept Donations to the Cause :P
Anybody Consider trying to get on the HOA Board and changing the rules? No body wants a deuce or large truck in the neighborhood until there is 3 feet of snow or its raining over an inch an hour and that is the only think that will move safely. I hate the idea of HOA's but if you can change the...
I use a sheet of 1/2" OSB on my M101. Bridges the bows front to back. No issues with rain pooling anymore. The M105 is bigger but the concept is the same. I also park with is tongue high so it slopes rearward. Helps the water to run off.
