If you had asked me at the beginning of Thunderbolt Adventure Supply whether we’d have a thriving business two years later, my honest answer would have been: I have no idea! But here we are, celebrating two years of designing and delivering innovative camping gear for electric vehicles—and what an incredible journey it’s been.
Along the way, we’ve met fantastic people, explored breathtaking places, and built a community that shares our passion for adventure. We still think back to that first Gary’s Jamboree, huddled under awnings to cook in the rain. We remember early morning breakfasts at Alice’s Restaurant and the “club friends” who became regular lunch buddies. And, of course, who could forget the giant batch of paella we made at the second Gary’s Jamboree? These moments—and the ones still to come—are what make this journey so special.
For the first year and a half, we ran everything out of our San Francisco garage, including customer pickups and installations. We love seeing photos of happy customers with our neighborhood landmarks in the background. The woman in the photo above happens to be the captain of a container ship that makes a loop between Hawaii and California—(I get to meet the coolest people!)
As another exciting milestone, we’ve moved into a dedicated warehouse and workshop space right next to our CNC shop in Hayward. This new space has given us the opportunity to grow, streamline production, and continue expanding our product line.
At the heart of Thunderbolt Adventure Supply is a simple mission: to help people take full advantage of their electric vehicles and get out into the natural world. Seeing your adventures on this forum and in the Rivian Camping Fun Facebook group we sponsor is a constant reminder of why we do this.
To celebrate two years of adventure, we’re excited to announce our Anniversary Sale! Unlike many retailers, we don’t run constant promotions—we believe in fair pricing and top-quality craftsmanship. But once a year, we offer 15% off Thunderbolt Gear—and that time is now!
If you’ve been eyeing an Overland Kitchen, a set of Bed Gliders, or both, this is your chance. Get ready for summer camping season—just use discount code 2025ANNIVERSARY at checkout.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Here’s to many more adventures ahead!
