Thanks for that

Good stuff, thanks for the relatively in depth review.

I need a dedicated tablet for mapping as the title suggests. I don't have any intention of adding its own data connection, but in the event that I need to I would like it to be android as that is what I am familiar with. So do any of you have any specific recommendations on one or Links to...

The Australians are on the bleeding edge where off road campers are concerned. Frames and suspensions in particular are leaps and bounds better than anything made in USA. In the sub $30k category I would look hard at an Opus 2

Where are they going to live? Inside a truck, or strapped onto a roof rack have entirely different demands.

A budget is going to be necessary to do any more than shooting the dark. How old is the child?

Solar array on the turret and you can just rotate it with the sun.

Who is joking?

Just tell the authorities that you identify as a mechanic, that's how it works in 2021.

You're going to have to better describe what it does and/or doesn't do. I understand it doesn't start, does it turn over? fast, slow, normal? What is the battery voltage(s)? What was it's condition when it died? idle, driving down the road, trail, high angle,water, etc. You're positive it has...

Start with something that is not your daily driver, you WILL make mistakes. Older vehicles are less complex but the basics extrapolate well to newer vehicles (modern electrical systems are the exception). Older vehicles will generally require less comprehensive tool sets and/or specialty tools...

You know all those prepaid return mail envelopes you get in the junk mail?

Redundancy in all things, but particularly in cutting tools. I will say that due to inherent safety I use a saw in every reasonable application, and only go to hacking when it is the only option. I used a Cold Steel LTC Kukri almost daily for years, the old SK5 model. It was a wicked...

Hot Box/Bloom box/hydrogen is the answer, but it doesn't direct funds they way they want them to. Bloom box can use surplus solar/wind to create hydrogen which can be stored and the same box will run off of hydrogen. This technology is largely being ignored because a reasonable avenue for...

Yes they are junk no matter what they are. Looking at the pics more , those look like 5x4 1/2 Ford wheels of the 60s-early 70s vintage and are going to be tube type wheels (that dismount from the back side of the wheel). All of them will need to be replaced.

Look like 70s-80s vintage 1/2 ton Ford P/U or full size sedan wheels so 15". Bead ledge is incorrect taper for 16.5s

Looks home/shop built. Also looks to be 3/16 steel so heavy as all get out. Bias ply car tires say it hasn't seen a tire store since the 80's at the latest.

Not sure what size conductor you will need for 500a @12 feet ,but it's going to be big particularly through a push connector. You will be highly likely to bend the hitch insert on anything other than a direct in line pull. I would (did) mount a winch correctly on the front and plan to go forward.

You missed the operative word there "mate", regulation. I know you are from the EU which is why you are completely unaware of the circumstances here, and how they affected our transition from full energy independence. This is why I said that you literally have no idea what you are talking...
