Re: Shower/bathroom enclosures

I'll let you know. The wonders of Amazon one-click.
Is this a great country or what?

I have had mine strapped to the tire for six months now without any problems. I do have some recommendations for the next design iteration.

I used 1-inch strapping and clips from REI that surround the tire and the tent. While it works, it is a little hard for one person to wrangle the tent and straps around the tire. It’s a breeze with two people. I would consider straps that stay in place around the tire then separate straps and snaps that connect to the in-place tire straps. (Although it might not keep things as taught.)

I used reinforcement patches to tie the strapping to the tent bag. Glued them on with gorilla glue. Sewing them in place with an awl and tread would be better. A better solution would be to sew the strap continuously to the tent bag. This would help it from not sagging so much.

Re: Shower/bathroom enclosures

Nice one Charlie! Thanks so much for posting all of that info.

As an added bonus, it'll hide my ugly factory/stock wheel

I think we need to hit up Dave, Talk him into adding a pocket in the back of the Trasharoo big enough to hold that round disk. An SMB exclusive Trasharoo.

Just a thought!!

Re: Shower/bathroom enclosures

I have a 50 design and have slid it behind the drivers seat along with other equipment I need easy access to. I don't remember it sticking out to far past the 4cft fridge.
Just a thought.

Jage, you need to upgrade to one of these, then you can REALLY justify the three spares:

Re: Shower/bathroom enclosures

Actually you can use a mobile home that has a bathroom or shower. This is quite more convenient to your family. You just need to put it discreetly at the back of your vehicle.
