• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Slide-in camper for chasing?

I've been toying with an idea for being able to do a plains chase from Georgia at some point. To me, one of the biggest logistical issues with doing something like that is where to sleep. I have an F-150 and I was thinking about one of the slide-in campers with the pop-up top. So I could chase wherever the chase leads me and find a spot to pull off for the night. Anyone have experience with this idea? Good idea or not?
 
I dont have any experience with this, so take my words with a grain of salt. but those slide-ins can be very cumbersome. Another thing i would consider is the fact that it will make it a giant sail with all that surface area, increasing the chance of getting blown off the road or rolled. I say that if you do give it a go, Be extremely careful.
 
I stay at hotels BUT I have an inflatable bed that is custom made to fit in my Tundra bed. IF the weather is nice where you are going to sleep it is amazing to lay and watch the stars or storms in the distance. I have thought about a hard top camper top too due to rain/bugs at night. I have a couple friends that do the bed/camper top combo in Colorado for mountain climbing. Just a thought.
