We mainly use BackCountry Nav Pro but if you're in Nat'l Forest/BLM much then Avenza for looking at vehicle use maps. Let me know if it works for you.

Here are the instructions I had from user VMI_Marine at the coloradofans.com forum. I think I understand what most of this is doing, but possibly not enough to be much help if it goes wrong. 1. Turn on developer options on your phone: - On your phone, go to Settings > About phone - Tap "Build...

I'm afraid not, it's downloadable from GitHub, I think, then you need some of the developer tools to load and install it from the command line. Plus you need to root your phone to get touch commands from the dash screen back to your phone. Without that, you're just mirroring what's on your...

So I've found a free or cheap solution, at least for Android users. There is an Android app called "AAMirror" that mirrors the content of your screen to any device that has Android Auto functionality. If your phone is rooted, it even sends touch controls back to the phone. I have an old...

I messaged with someone that just finished the Mojave a few weeks ago in a pickup like mine ( it was a ZR2 Facebook group) and he said they had all seven vehicles including his do the big river crossing and none of them had issues. Hope that helps. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using OB Talk...

Lots of places to camp in Anza. Check out Blair valley. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using OB Talk mobile app

Joseph -Our ZR2 has been in the shop for a while and we were supposed to get it back Friday, Mar 9, but they got the wrong parts, so it's now looking like at least Monday the 12th as the earliest we'll get it back. Possibly later. I doubt we can be there and ready by the 19th, but I'll let you...

We're going to be in the area ( likely camping at Joshua Tree ) and we're interested if another spot opens.

Joseph, We're trying to be in that area in a couple of weeks and were considering a Mojave trip until our planned second vehicle backed out. If the timing works out ( we're waiting for work on the truck to complete in Yuma ), are you interested in another vehicle? We're tent campers in an '18...

Yes, that's the bar. It's outside of Parker, I think. We're in AZ right now, but we're full time in our RV, towing our 4x4, so we get around.

We've got a short off road trip ( not overlanding, but this seems like a good spot to ask ) with a fairly large number of vehicles coming up soon and are looking for links to some general advice for managing the group. We're doing the back road to the Desert Bar, so a moderately difficult trail...

Thanks for sharing. We drove it in November going the other way and it was a great drive.

And someone sent me this link on a Colorado Forum. Does the same thing, only about $300. http://www.navtool.com/chevrolet-colorado-2015-2017-8-inch-screen-hdmi-interface.aspx

These folks have a system that looks like it adds a few more video inputs to the system, allowing you to use an HDMI cable or one of the wireless screen mirroring systems to display your android screen, but it's pricey. I've seen a few other DIY systems, but for some reason forgot to save the...

Hi all, We just purchased a 2018 ZR2 ( CCSB, Dmax ) and do a lot of off road exploring and camping. We replaced a Jeep Liberty ( also a diesel ) which had no screen in the dash and a DIN sized stereo, which left lots of space for other stuff on the dash. So for off road navigation, we used our...

Great article! I have two things to add: First, you missed a frequency band that's very similar to GMRS and CB: MURS - Multi-Use Radio Service, designated by the FCC in the 151 – 154 MHz spectrum range. There isn't a lot of advantages over GMRS, other than it's less used by most folks since...

Hi all, We're Eric and Jeanette. We travel and work full time in our RV, towing our 2006 Jeep Liberty diesel ( 2" OME lift, BFG KO2, sliders, skids, lock-right ) to get farther away when we need to. We haven't done a lot of overnight trips, but we've probably done 50+ off road excursions. We're...
