I'm pretty sure that's called "value-seeking" behavior and is about the most rational way of behaving. Congrats, you're a canny one!!

Yeah, I'm saving 1827 as my desktop wallpaper, hope you don't mind!! :cool::cool: Rod, I'll take a plethora of pics of mine when it's assembled & such, no worries!! I also appreciate the Molon Labe & Gadsden flag stickers!

Really nice setup, I've also got the 2020 in Kalamata and the green Mosko panniers!

I'm going to use your configuration to show folks that I'm NOT excessively overloaded... :D Well, that's unfair, sorry, I haven't gotten mine yet and I may have to eat my words... :D When fully loaded, what's your ADV1's total weight & tongue weight?

Where is the center of gravity for the ADV1? Directly above the axle at some point, or does the hitch have any influence? Is there a graphic calculator out there that can input various shapes & weights to figure out the best loading patterns?

I'm a packrat??

Hey, I'm using my imagination here!! :D HMMWVs had a small (4"x4") solar panel on the hood to charge their batteries, no reason one couldn't be attached to the front side of the ADV1, right?

Indeed, the Billie does connect to the Clearwater Lights' CANopener and per Billy at Clearwater, "The wire can be as long as 120 inches and you still be fine for the Billie brake light." Therefore I assume that the wire from the Billie can run from the light all the way through the ADV1 wiring...

Pics & writeup, stat!! ;-) FWIW, my birthday is 1 August so if a large package shows up on my doorstep close to that date, I'll be very happy.

If need be, I can bring the whole kit & kaboodle up to Clearwater Lights when I get the ADV and let them figure out the wiring. I'm sure they'd be happy to figure it out and see the ADV1 so they can advertise their solution.

Hi, Rod! In addition to the tail lights, I'd like to get the Clearwater Lights Billie Jr installed at the back of the ADV1. I'll buy it & send it to you when needed. It hooks into most/all of the CANBUS doodads and (hopefully) picks up the programming of my bike-mounted Billie Jr. There's a...

What kind of bear would fit into a canister? Willingly, anyway. :D

Well, the US bought the Gadsden purchase for a reason, you know... Drop down to 40, head west, hit Flagstaff, go down to 10, head west again, etc.

I guess I'll have to wait until I get my ADV1 to find out. 😅😅😅

Just an FYI, there's a significant difference between "thinking of" and "seriously considering" loading a 16' Otter canoe on the ADV1... :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: And does the Henry Air Force Survival Rifle, when packed down into the shoulder stock, really qualify as a "long gun"? Asking for...

Nice to see another Kalamata GSA! 🥳🥳

FWIW, the shelf option has foldout supports, maybe use the same at one end? However, having looked at Tony's ADV1, I saw the two holes at the forward end and thought that a simple handle running between them, maybe rope/twine/cable could be a simple solution?

This bit of the Kings Canyon/Generals Highway puts the Tail of the Dragon to shame... I might have to take some Dramamine before hitting this bit!! At the top-left 180 is the turnoff for Crystal Cave - Crystal Cave - Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks (U.S. National Park Service).

Well, there is the Crystal Cave but there's no indication that Merlin is/was in residence. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
