Hey, initiation by teasing... i get it. I kept thinking... "os" = "operating system" and had to ask.

I've been drooling over the Expedition Portal stuff (lurking) for a year or more and just convinced myself that a TB could be a worthy platform to do some overlanding/camping/road trip mods (I'm no snob... too practical.)

I've been missing my toyota pickup with camper shell and sleeping bag in the back for years. That ol truck could wander into a Colorado logging road (or off it) and carry me and some friends into an adventure pretty reliably, despite it's rusted body character.

Thanks for gentlemanly responses!
