That is my ideal setup. May never happen though.

We have a couple of setups, here is our 'overnight 2 people', minimalist with a tent, using awning from vehicle.
And our 'base camp, daily touring' with camper, kitchen etc ... I try to position the camper so that we can back the RR in under the awning, not possible this time at Murray Sunset NP.

Well, I sold my house late last year and decided to bugger the GFC ... I'll take a couple of years off and go camping instead . Wanted something that could get me to most places in Oz in reasonable comfort. It makes for a pretty long tray on the 130, but these people convinced me that it would work. Ken at Trayon also mentioned that there were a handful of others out there with a similar setup.

That's interesting, you have a dual cab Defender with the single cab model Trayon.

I bought mine second hand three years ago, so didn't have much choice, but the dual cab actually suits me. There are only two of us so we have enough space and storage and the setup allows me to keep a spare tyre or two against the headboard.
They are a great design and well made.

I'm curious to know haw many they have built now. Mine was built in September 2003 and is number 247. What number is yours? It is stamped into the aluminium angle at each corner.

They made another 400 since then! (as of last week) Not too many available on the 2nd hand market either when I started looking around, which is a pretty good endorsement I think.

Slt, how long is your tray?
I've been thinking of doing the same thing after we sell our boat this summer.
