Glad you are safe!

Thanks, Eric and SAM. I've left my Go Backpack in the half bath with the blankets and pillow. Just have to move my electronics case in there if needed.

I, too, used to think there there was no such thing as a dumb question, but the following questions supposed directed to Park Rangers makes me think differently.  These are pretty good: http://paleo.cc/kpaleo/fun-park.htm

Just to follow up, I handed the reins over to the hubby, and he got it installed in minutes.

gooselady, Atta girl! Got pictures?

We all need help sometimes, @gooselady!  You had all of the parts ready for him

Yes, I did!  Also, the extra SAE plug was installed, and now I will finish with the splicing of the wiring extension, which I want to finish myself.  But I can work s credit card with the best of them, lol!

Eric, the slats are stock from Elsie, so nothing beautiful and creative to share.  But functional and affordable (around $20) for those of us who are wood working impaired.

gooselady, Anything is better than that horrible , heavy sinking table! I left ours in there one time to sleep on, and i felt like I got beat up the next morning [of a 4 day trip!]. When we got home, the table went out-ski, and bed slats were cut and installed. Best mod I've done to date. [other than the 2" memory foam mattress with a cover & straps for storage!] Enjoy and have fun!

Thanks!  It will be our first trip together in years, as it is very hard for the two of us to leave the farm together, and the first trip in the T@B as a couple.  Can't wait!

We have a 2016 Tab Q Max.  I will be installing the Lagun table mount and rails.  I am undecided if I will use the factory table for the bed, or make my own bed slats.  If I do the latter, how thick should the slats be?  It also would seem that the rails cover up the Alde vents on the passenger side.
