Thanks for the pictures everyone after a lot of thinking about our camping setups im just going to build a rack over my trailer for the roof top tent and awning, for me 99% of the time when we go camping we stay in the one spot but like to be able to drive of to different fishing spots and cut wood etc plus having it set up on the trailer wont matter what car i take, just a few tool boxes to slide in with all the camping gear to keep it simple because one thing i have learnt with our camping experiences simple is best
