Tell us a little about yourself and why you own a TAXA?

I live in sunny Del Rio, Texas with my wife Kate and my five kids: John, Rosie, Clare, Eliza and Gabriel. Three years ago I saw my first Cricket, in a resale lot close to our home. For the first few days, I could not figure out what the "space ship" I told my wife about was for. Flash forward a few weeks and my wife and I purchased our first TAXA from that same resale lot. Over time our family grew and we traded in our Cricket for a Mantis because we appreciated how TAXA Outdoors made more than living room on wheels. My kids love telling people at campgrounds about our Mantis with its bunks and a tree house on top.

Where is your favorite place to take your TAXA? 

Mountains make the best camping.

Who do you explore with?

My oldest three kids are at the perfect age to take out on a weekend and explore.

What are your favorite outdoor activities?

Hiking, cycling and running.

Do you have any hacks or mods that you've done to your habitat to enhance your travels?

We have equipped our Mantis with a Tepui Explorer Ayer 2 and an ARB Awning Room.

What's one place you'd love to explore?

The Grand Canyon
