Thread: Help Me Plan for My Summer Expedition!

    Re: Help Me Plan for My Summer Expedition!

    actually i hauled it home like that from pomona, and didnt see any noticiable hit on the fuel economy.

    also stacked on the roof will be fuel cans and a bunch of other crap, so im not to worried about how it looks.

    i do have a question. for those of you with a roof top box of any kind, how do you keep the humidity down inside? mine seems to be very moist.

    Don't put wet sleeping bags in there. Should help cut down on the humidity.

    Edit: Just noticed that you plan on putting the tent next to the case. Shouldn't the tent go IN the case, if there's any chance of rain, like in Oregon or something? Putting up a wet tent is NOT fun.

    yeah tent might go inside. for sure the folding camp chairs will go on the side, not sure what else yet. dad is still not convinced we can get everything in, so im going to have to dry pack AGAIN and show him (he didnt feel like coming out side on saturday when i was doing it)

    i think i am litterally going to pack everything, and then just move it into the spare room in the house and keep it there until late june.
