    This, but it helps to know how to manually do it in case your are away from your computer and need to make changes. A nice PDF stored on the phone really helps.

    Yeah that is better. If you use a SHOT hotel, there is also a shuttle bus to/from show, so that saves parking Uber each day.

    REI and Overlanding?

    No. I do not want politics of any kind. No matter what side you take, ~50% of your customers disagree with you. It is plain stupid to take political positions. In fact, politics I agree with is often worse, as places I might like suddenly get protested, etc.

    REI and Overlanding?

    REI was great years ago, now like many it is too political, they work against their own customers by supporting Sierra, and the Camelback thing was pure stupid. I still go to their store 1-2 month, but only to physically evaluate something I will go buy on-line elsewhere.

    Why are there so few Silverado overland rigs?

    I use the portable ARB and prefer it since I have several vehicles. I converted it to Anderson 175A connectors and have the Warn QC on all my vehicles. As for tank, I run that in bed or on rack. For shocks I run Rancho Monotubes with 4" Rancho Lift. Factory fenders are fine. FYI mine is a 2002.
