    Backup camera?

    Just had to replace a 1490 GARMIN with a much newer 50 series. It has a built in dash cam along with all the new car gizmos. Things like lane assist...brake alert... BUT most interesting is the ability to either hardwire or WiFi a GARMIN rear camera into it. This allows you to have the...

    Winch powered by Starting or Auxiliary power? What do you recommend?

    When I had my winch installed, this same concern crossed my mind. I have a GM/CHEVY, so it would take extra time to disconnect the side mounted battery cables vs a older style top mount cable. As many are aware, GM has their dual battery systems run in series, with no isolator. Great for...

    Maxtrax Mini (and Extreme)

    A nice concept, but I would like to see some real-world feedback by people who have used them. Even better would be those that could compare full size vs mini. If they get good reviews for usability, I can see competitors offering a similar product. The nylon/plastic formula has finally...

    What is the difference between a tow strap, snatch strap, and kinetic , and when would you use each?

    I have a well equipped recovery kit. And some one as a novice might wonder why they need anywhere the amount of kit I have. I posted on another thread the contents of what I carry. As commented on above.....I also CHOKED on the cost of a Bubba Rope. I have been researching alternative...

    Carry Bag For Cast Iron Griddle?

    Picked up a griddle cover at a IFA farm store. Places that might/Will have them most likely are..... Cabellas Bass pro Cal Ranch Others that sell more than the minimum cast iron options.

    Best Off-road jack without steel bumpers.

    2 ton for a corner...4 ton for a mid size on 1 end...6 ton for a full size. On 1 end. This should give you a margin of safety. The 6 ton down side is size. It might be too big for some applications.

    SOLD F/S Sceptor MFC 's El Paso, TX

    I have 1 tan one that was given to me years ago. They are built really strong. Very tuff. As mentioned above, the spout is ridiculous in price. I have not researched an aftermarket one. Ion a side note I have 3 of the water versions and they also are built very well. But I was able to...

    Why is it that when your traveling in a group your the only one setting up and breaking down

    I guess i have been lucky. Everyone has helped in a way. Sure some more than others, but helped never the less. Newbies are given more slack. It's the effort put out that determines how future invites are determined. (When the whole job was done they came out and said "how can I help".)...

    Portable Fire Pits?

    A nice idea, and a good solution where a previous rock pit cannot be used. However some of us live in areas where restricted open fires are not allowed for months on end. Fire season just extends from early spring to late fall....erggg Even the camp ground BBQ grill stands have become...
