    GMRS Antenna mounting solution (I think)

    I have both my 2m/440 antenna and a GRMS antenna on lip mounts on the front hood. I have experienced little to no loss. My range has also not been effected. I can reach my repeaters 40 miles away on my 2m radio. My simplex operations have also not been effected. The length of the antenna...

    MSA Drop Slide DS50

    The other company not mentioned was who you stated. I believe there was a patent infringement. I could be wrong. I haven’t seen the Clearview but will take a look as I like seeing what’s out there. Thanks for the comment.

    ARB JACK vs. Hi-Lift Jack

    Fire Department still use and train on the Hi-Lift for manual extractions. Just because insurance denounces it doesn’t mean there is not an appropriate use for it. The hi-lift is a tool. Like most tools it should be used as designed and maintained to insure you are not injured by inappropriate...

    AT Overland Habitat

    When I purchased the Habitat the Summit was being produced. The Summit came out this last year in 2018 I believe. I think it was first on display at 2018 Expo East. I was there at the AT booth and got to see it first hand. The Summit is really well made. I like the similar opening latches...

    ARB JACK vs. Hi-Lift Jack

    I would agree the safety of the hydraulic jack from ARB is inherently more safe. The mechanical jack has to have a lot of respect when using. There are multiple pinch points and possible mechanical failures that can occur with the Hi-lift. The ARB hydraulic jack operates more smoothly and is...

    Nah no issues. No wet floors, no wet intakes. It’s not the best idea to go swimming anyway but that whole area to get through you don’t know what you are going to get into to you are there then you have to choose to continue or turn around.
