Thank you! Someone on a different forum said the opposite since they are mounted directly the to truck and not in a cage.

Finally had a chance to wire in the KC Hilites lights and install a switch this weekend. I know LEDs are probably brighter, and the lights would look better in a cage, but I gotta work with what I’ve got and I don’t like LED light bars.

I cannot seem to find anything when using the map. I was hoping to find some trails in north Georgia, near Clayton and there seem to be some, but when I look they are paved roads. Also swapping layer types either only gives me topo or the street map.

So, those are made by PP Engineering the same people who make a cage for 2nd Gen Xterra. Nistech doesn’t stock them, they are built to order and ship from PP who currently can’t guarantee a delivery time frame, or if they will continue to produce it. When you go to PP Engineering’s site, that...

Avoid All Dogs Off-road at all costs! Check out Z1 Off-Road. I ordered my Old Man Emu kit for my Xterra from them and it was delivered in three days.

My wife and I had a tough time coming to a decision the past couple of days. Earlier in the week it looked like Tampa was going to take a direct hit from Hurricane Ian. We live just outside of Tampa, close to Clearwater and the question of when to leave, plus how to leave came up a lot. Today...

Here are a few quick snapshots from a recent trip to Hendersonville, NC. Canon EOS R5, Sigma 500mm f/4

You can mount any F mount lens to the 5500, however since the 5000 series is on the low-end/entry level of DSLRs you might not get certain features to work. Obviously, older manual focus lenses will not auto-focus. Certain older lenses that do not have built in focus motors will not auto-focus...
