[QUOTE="TurboTJ, post: 1635779, member: 33074"] I have been trying to figure out some of these answers ever since I got my Raptor. We have two German shepherds that we travel and camp with so we have the same constraints. My ideal solution would be the tent topper. Dogs go in the truck bed, preferably on a decked storage system. You enter the tent through the bed so they aren’t far from you. However, it won’t fit in some garages which is a deal breaker for me. Dogs can travel in the bed when you want and be secure leaving the back seat open. Gives you tons of storage but you will need to increase rear spring stiffness. Also, if you’re modifying the suspension and adding weight, it may be worthwhile to look at HD trucks since you’re watering your Raptor down some. Even with the weight of gear, tent and whatever, I guess you’ll still be better offroad than a TRX. [URL unfurl="true"]https://atoverland.com/pages/at-habitat-truck-topper-specifications-options[/URL] My second favorite option is a trailer. Probably an adventure trailer with just a RTT, power, water, stove, batwing, etc. Then you can setup base camp and leave. You don’t have to mod your Raptor’s suspension so you can still have a lot of fun in the dirt. Drop it off at the Airbnb where ever you’re staying and still have your Raptor for a DD. [/QUOTE]
