I'm this old.

@chrisklumph @UranderOfficial @YouTube It does help build up restorative time. I don't think it was intentional, but the unused tent portion also makes a great blanket while enjoying the pano view.

Sometimes we need roads…and rooftop tents. Enjoy some Washington coastal footage and some @UranderOfficial gear. https://t.co/t5aCDfyrrU via @YouTube

Self driving was off because I was towing my kayak trailer. An absent minded driver made a left over 4 yellows. Thankfully the truck handles really well. We were able to miss her by inches. #cybertruck #dashcam

We used our "Plug-in Hybrid" CyberTruck to extend our stay in Canada's Icefields Parkway. While it wasn't a 500 kW supercharger, it helped out just enough. https://t.co/gtJ1ik6gaB via @YouTube

@gri999999 @UranderOfficial It brings positive attention back to the truck too. Win-win.

3 weeks with over 3k miles of self-driving on mixed roads with a full vault, @UranderOfficial Passthrough tent, 270 awning and light-bar resulted in 448.6 in consumption. My normal usage over 43k is 418.8

I have done both the side entry via the ladder and the tailgate/vault entry. Both have their advantages. I had an overly stuffed vault during this trip so the ladder was used more at the beginning. Once we consolidated the clutter the vault entry got easier.

A lot of people have asked me about the new @UranderOfficial Passthrough rooftop tent and how it moves. I put together this video to help you learn if it is right for you...hint...it probably is.

Hey @Canada, we have loved our two weeks enjoying your Rockies. I want you all to know you are now safe. I have personally exterminated 208 mosquitoes. I think I got them all. Enjoy the outdoors.

[Kirk Pettersen @GadgetreeHugger]

@affinity892 Not that I have noticed. I always got some that would come up from underneath the tailgate, and that’s the only moisture I’ve noticed in the bed. I actually. I actually get less than I used to with the tonneau closed.

[Kirk Pettersen @GadgetreeHugger]

Stopping in Field for a break and a great view.

[Kirk Pettersen @GadgetreeHugger]

@LoveBella520 In the middle of a three week long Canadian Rockies trip…mind blown!

[Kirk Pettersen @GadgetreeHugger]

⁦@snowpeakusa⁩ tibiki time in the Canadian Rockies. Enjoy your day any way you can.

[Kirk Pettersen @GadgetreeHugger]

Spending time relaxing on a rainy day thanks to summer break and ⁦@UranderOfficial⁩.

Personal lookout tower on the Icefields Parkway. This video does it no justice. We used the @uranderofficial Passthrough as our perch. The cold wind was held at bay using the tent walls as a blanket. Not sure it was intended to do that but it works.

[Kirk Pettersen @GadgetreeHugger]

Some people asked how I use my @MilwaukeeTool Packout system with my @UranderOfficial Cap and Passthrough tent. Here is a quick rundown video.

[Kirk Pettersen @GadgetreeHugger]

@M4DMAX9 @UranderOfficial I met her when we were young and I was cute.

[Kirk Pettersen @GadgetreeHugger]

I did a quick setup of the ⁦@UranderOfficial⁩ Passthrough tent as a lookout tower in Jasper National Park. The goal was to surprise my wife. She didn’t know it could do this. She was all smiles as she drifted off for a nap.
