  • I met up with a fan favorite the other day, Tom The Dilettante! Such a cool guy, and the place we met up at, Garden Of The Gods in Southern Illinois was a perfect spot! We shot this build feature on his Crosstrek while we were there, and I think it turned out pretty good, I hope you all enjoy!

      Those are diode dynamics. They have performed great, BUT, if you are currently, or are considering getting into amateur radio, they are very "noisy" in the common mobile 2 meter ham band. I'm actually working on a video to cover this and trying to kill the noise. So far I've been unsuccessful. If this is not a concern of yours though, then I would recommend them for their solid performance. If you want "quiet" lights, I have a set of Baja Designs Squadron Sport Pros for ditch lights that not only perform great, but are RF quiet too :)

    I liked the video... I've been considering selling my Jeep, and buying a Subaru. It's more than capable for 95% of my adventures. The gas mileage, and Solo camping abilities are intriguing. The lift & tires are my big question...
    Having watch several other Crosstrek Camping Setup videos, I can definetly see it's utilty & capability. I'm a Ham as well, and always have my comms handy. Thanks for sharing!

    I also have 2019 premium MT with 80,000 miles. Sleep relatively comfortable inside with Exped mattress on top of wooden platform. However, I’ve been having so many reliability issues with the car and frequent trips to the dealerships and calls to Subaru headquarters. ( Rattling throttle, jerky acceleration with power cutting out, loud popping noise in rear when crawling down hill, rain water inside collection inside doors, and etc) definitely more problems than Jeep rubicon I purchased in 2012. My first Subaru and likely my last. Cool build though.
