I went with the front dinette, minus the toilet and shower. I wanted the extra space for storage and I don't mind taking a shower outdoors. I added the 160 W solar panel and the awning. Now I am getting my supplies and organizing my cabinets. Is there any supplies that are an absolute must have? ImageUploadedByTapatalk1419799544.082582.jpg

I got the same for my 2014 Hawk. In the process of adding 2 100 watt solar panels with Tri-Metric monitor and SC-2030 solar charger. Also installed 40# lift assist struts front and back. Highly recommend that. Retired NCB and former SCB. Have a good bombero story.

Too many good stories to share here. I might add the lift assist struts in the near future. I'm going to pick up my Yakima cross bars this week too.

How large is the gap between the cabover and the cab?  I have a '14 Tundra also and really had a hard time choosing between FWC and Hallmark.  I added OME suspension front and rear which really carries the camper weight well.

 

My must haves are: stovetop espresso maker, Helios camping chairs, 12V charger for the laptop.

Looks like a nice chair. Pricey though. I haven't seen those on the somewhat lengthy chair thread over on Expo. Gaps vary depending on your application.

The chairs are crazy expensive at $100.  We bought them because they store away in a very small bag that can fit in a small space in the camper and are very light.  We are trying to outfit the camper with mostly backpacking gear to keep the weight down.

 

We also really like the lithium iron phosphate (LiFePo4) battery pack /w Electrodacus BMS and Global Solar system that we added, but it would take another thread to discuss.  These batteries also help keep the weight down.
