I am not sure how many of you all back woods it, but I outfitted
my
chinook with two large unbreakable solar panels. These rest on
top
of
the raised top. I had to tighted the springs on the lift top in
order
to increase the tension, but it all works wonderful. They send
power
to a large gell cell battery and this gives power to fans, car
sterio, lights, ETC....In a dryer climate it would easily power
an
evaporative air conditioner. I have also installed a ceramic
filter,
in line, on my faucet to make even the dirtiest water safe...
Now if only it were 4 wheel drive.........

Hi Benton,
The solar panels sound like a good deal, I'll have to agree with
you
on the water filter, I installed a filter system in my Chinook to
get
rid of the plastic taste the water tank had, it worked wonders. Now
for the 4 wheel drive.... your starting to talk my language now :)
