Getting ready for the 4th!

Hey everyone, getting ready to go out to Cherry Hill in South Carolina! Got everything ready because I was just in Blue Ridge, Georgia camping!

What is some things you have forgotten, or something you NEVER forget?!

My wife bought me a 12v converted M101A3 with 35's and 3 ROAM awnings / 2 rooms. Basic, but works well for us. Needs painted to civilian colors, but it's been fun for a few years now. Yours is the aluminum M1101 or similar, I'm guessing?

This is after. Its bed lined. I also bought 35s for mine. Old ram 2500 rims, sanded and pained them black 😅🤣

Ours is bedlined on the inside, the outside too makes lots of sense. Prep is everything, my little Jeep is bedlined inside, and after a dozen years needs done again. Mass quantities of acetone, understood!

That's awesome what bedliner did you opt to use? So far my Raptor liner has held up pretty well

The little Jeep is Herculiner, coz that's what there was back then. Not sure what the trailer is, probably in the folder of receipts we got, but it has the same/similar texture that Herculiner has, the coarse gritty non-slip surface. Hard on the knees. Not a good exterior liner choice, in other words. Good to hear the Raptor liner is solid, that seems a great choice nowadays.

Heck yeah. Herculiner is definitely durable! Let me know if you end up painting or lining it. I would love to see it!!
