Wow the pictures in here are amazing!

I’ll pile on the Michigan UP photos. Took this last summer when we stayed up near Copper Harbor. I’d never been to Lake Superior before. Amazing stuff, and I look forward to returning.

Sunset Bay RV Resort and Campground. Allouez, MI. Really nice place. Location is fantastic being right up on the water (tent sites were, the full hookup slots largely were across from the tent sites).

We were in a tent and the first night a massive storm hit and maaaaan Lake Superior sounded like it was going to wash us away.

OK, I think we've hiked past there before over the winter.

Oh the places your Ranger can take you. Just back from a week on and off road in south central Utah. A few nights camping, and few nights in a couple of small cabins. Tuck did well* over the 1700 miles driven.

*along the trip discovered that at some point, maybe 'before' the trip(?) my passenger side window stopped working! I know it was working. This with 3500mi on the truck, the milage before the trip. It did put a damper on the trip for me, as this was discovered on day two. I kept thinking.... what nightmare will this turn into? We'll after I got back home, and gave the Ranger a VERY good / long "bath" I went about pulling the door panel off. Before I even got it completely off I discovered a wire and connector dangling in the door (Ford Quality?). Plugged the connecter into the "socket" (on the window rocker switch in the armrest) and tada! Working window.

I forgot my ladder... so... had to get creative. @AndyMedic came up with the idea and @UnregistredHypercam2 named it the leaning tower of plastic. Worked for the night, though we had to climb in through the passenger side using the tire, bedsides, and then into the tent.

OSHA approved! ?

I can see the headline now:
"Man breaks his legs falling out of RTT while going for a 2am bathroom break".:oops:

First, this is one of my favourite threads - so many great shots.

Great idea - You gotta do what you gotta do. Those are my favourite totes - hats off to Home Depot for those.

I have about a dozen - each one specific to different jobs: electrical, plumbing, fasteners, tiling, painting, etc. Labels make it easy to identify what’s inside but mine got so dusty, the painter‘s tape only lasted so long. I labeled the lids on a side panel and end panel with permanent marker - problem solved.
