“I built the rear drawers myself, and they suit our needs
perfectly. Now that we tow a camper trailer, we’ve freed up a lot
of space, so it’s quite roomy in there, which was the whole point
of buying the 105 when Ryder came along in the first place.
“Because we essentially want to just hook the trailer up and
hit the tracks for good, a solid 12V setup was a necessity, so I’ve
got a Redarc BCDC 1240 Management system controlling
everything with numerous outlets, an inverter, fuse block and
everything else we need. We have more than enough power at
camp.
“To be honest, getting the Patriot was the best thing we ever
did for out camping set up. It was a real game changer since
having Ryder and makes camping with him so much easier. It’s
so quick and easy to set up and we can store so much in it which
keeps the weight out of the vehicle just like I wanted. It also
means we can unhitch and point the Cruiser at some of the tough
tracks without worrying about all the extra weight.”12V & TOURING MODS

THANKS:“Big thanks to all the mates that have been involved
somehow over the years, for drinking all the beers in the fridge
and helping spin spanners. Amz the wifey for putting up with the
big shed nights and endless dollars thrown at the big girl – even
though secretly she loves sending the big rig!”
