Hey guys Im looking at getting a first gen Expedition for a camping rig. Probly just go with a 4.6L 2 wheel drive, add some A/Ts and if it doesnt have it a limited slip. Only off road it will see are gravel or dirt roads/trails. Nothing serious. Im thinking of adding a roof basket, some aux lighting, a optima deep cycle or 2 battery system, some kind of window covering for sleeping. The plan is to fold down the rear seats for sleeping on a air mattress. Maybe build a storage compartment and sleep on it. Any ideas? Anyone do this? My gear consists of a folding table, camp stove, an ice chest tho may get a 12 volt cooler, small propane heater, a couple chairs, maybe some astro turf, a shade canopy, as well as the sleeping bags, mattress, pillows, etc. I'm just looking for ideas on how to make it a better camping rig, and to keep my gear stored securely. Im done using a tent.
