Hi Bill,

        I’m trying to get this bus ready for those amazing camp outs and camping concerts!  Hopefully see you at several starting at West River.

Do you remember the particular name or source of new racks that you have had good success with?

I’m trying to pull together the strongest equipment and full list of what is needed.  

Tips and recommendations from all are appreciated.
