I need some advice. My recent tests of camping without using the CPAP have shown doing so is a mistake. I'm dumber than a box of rocks when it comes to electricity so I have some questions regarding using a CPAP while camping without access to 110 VAC power. Simple and inexpensive solutions...

There are times when a tent is not practical or just too much trouble and a lot of places where the RV trailer cannot go. So we decided to set up the FJ60 so we could sleep inside with some degree of comfort. Platforms are popular and there are some fine examples out there but this option...

Anyone have tire industry inside information regarding the future of 15" diameter tires? I could be wrong but it seems 15" types and sizes have been reduced over the years. This along with the advent of progressively larger diameter rim sizes. Asking because for the FJ60 I have (5) each...

I am leaning towards jettisoning the roof rack from my FJ60 because I do not use it for hauling cargo. This decision is complicated by the fact I'd like to be able to hang an awning on the vehicle. What options are there for attaching an awning to a vehicle without a roof rack? Thanks Jim

I'd like some input on the pros and cons regarding portable 12V compressors vs pre-charged high pressure gas cylinders. At this point my main concern is re-inflating 33" tires. Not using pneumatic power tools at this point. On my short list are the Viair 400 series and the Advanced Air...
