On my last trip into Canada, I used my T-Mobile phone with no issues. Coverage was very good and maintained 4G for 90% of the trip. There was no setup requirement nor an additional charge. If you have a T-Mobile phone, it's already included in your plan. Mexico is also covered.
That video is worse than useless.
What broke?
Why did it break?
How can it be avoided in the future?
15 minutes tops.
Anything more than that is therapy and should be discussed with your counselor.
I run Gaia on an 8" tablet for mapping. Downloading entire states is extremely easy, as is downloading routes and POIs. It has worked very well for the almost 10 years I've been using it. I also carry a Garmin 7" GPS and have OB1 on my phone for backup and additional information. For creating...
This is the best camping light I've ever owned. Need task lighting while cooking? Done. Directional lighting that sticks to your vehicle while changing a tire? It's perfect. Nightlight for your 5-year-old? Yep, it does that too. Batteries that last? 9 hours on high or 40 hours on low. It will...
This does not pack very small but it is extremely comfortable and worth the space needed to haul it.
LOSTHORIZON 4.5” Thick Self Inflating Sleeping Pad
I'm 56 and have gotten tired of always working on things. Always sleeping on the ground and dealing with the dirt. Now the rig is towed behind a 40' DP motorhome. We frequently base camp and spend time exploring around us.
If I'm going to get 9 mpg, I'm going to be comfortable when I get there...
I bought this to replace the XJ. The XJ was a great vehicle but it was getting a little long in the tooth. Time for something a little newer. My middle son bought the XJ so it will still be around.
2009 Hummer H3T. This one has the Adventure Group and comes with front and rear locking diffs. It...
Honestly, I agree with a lot of what you say. Unfortunately, the National Forest only gets about $44/acre to take care of all of the national forests and national grasslands. The chances of them getting a higher budget to include trash pickup is slim to none. They barely have enough people to...
I had a 92 with the 12 valve that went well over 400k miles. The truck was falling apart around the engine. My father has a 2004 that has been flawless for almost 200k miles. My motorhome has the 400 hp Cummins ISL9 that has been flawless for 90k miles.
That said, I don't think I would pay the...
This is my grandkid's Cub Scout troop. They haul several tons of trash out of the Francis Marion every year. Organized cleanups do good work. The Francis Marion holds clean up days annually and everyone is welcome to help out. The local hunt, Jeep, and Scout clubs show up in force.
Nice little rig!
I used to drive a Samurai but have since moved to larger vehicles. I've always liked the Suzuki vehicles but finding a 4WD version near me is difficult.
I still have the Samurai but I don't drive it as much as I used to.
My best MPG commuter is a 2014 Mustang V6 with the 6-speed. It gets 20-22 around town and 29-30 on the highway. I don't think I would put a new driver behind the wheel though.
My normal commuter is my H3T. Worse fuel economy but easier to live with in traffic.
Of the cars you posted, I would...
On the trail or road I use an OBDLink LX Bluetooth dongle and the Torque app on my phone. It works fine for simple things and reading and clearing codes. It also doesn't take up any room in the toolbox.
At home, I use a TOPDON Phoenix Plus ECU Coding Scan Tool. It goes a good bit deeper and...
A Hummer H3T Adventure.
I'm going to have to do away with the running boards eventually and fab up a set of rock rails but other than that, I"m pretty happy with it. It is much more comfortable and easier to drive than the XJ and with OEM lockers front and rear, every bit as capable.
I am running OEM wheels on everything but the Samurai. The Samurai is on Soft 8 steel wheels. It is the lightest vehicle. I also run Wildpeaks on my Touareg, my H3T, and my Suburban. 18-20 psi works pretty well on all of them.
OEM wheels and Falken Wildpeaks on everything except the Samurai. The Wildpeaks are outstanding!
The Samurai still has Wildpeaks but it's on a set of soft 8 steel wheels.
