Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
You can also run your dehydrated peppers through your coffee grinder and make your own hot pepper powder. It's nice to be able to mix and match what peppers go in to your own jar.
Mechanical visual and hand shake once over.
Pressure wash the topside then the under side.
Hit it with the soap nozzle on the pressure washer, rinse.
If I'm feeling froggy, I'll hand wash.
If I'm feeling extra froggy, I'll vacuum and wipe out the interior.
Check all fluids for level and water...
One thing worth mentioning is how much ram all these layers use. On a trip this weekend I added the private land layer and my cheap tablet couldn't keep up and wanted to lock up. I simply turned off that layer and all was good. I'm running a $59 Insignia (Best Buy house brand) tablet, so it does...
Are you looking to only run Gaia on the tablet? I run a cheap insignia (Best buy house brand) 8" tablet in my truck. It works as long as I don't try to run too many layers or more than one app at once. For $59 + a memory card, it more than does the job for the single purpose of running Gaia.
I use my Hi-lift around the house more than on the trail. Just yesterday I used it to get a truck cab off jack stands and on to furniture dollies. I can't count how many fence posts and saplings I've yanked out of the ground with it and how many corners of something I've lifted to get blocking /...
Pretty much that. I've driven up to my uncles cabin to stay a night or two during the winter months, mainly to put more tire tracks in the snow / see a vehicle parked / lights on and off / people occupying the cabin. The more lived in a place looks, the better for prying eyes.
Same/similar here. For me the dehydrating and vac sealing are awesome additions to my kit.
To be honest, the vacuum sealer gets more use. I pre chop all my veggies for a meal and vac seal. Makes it easier to cook up your eggs in the morning. I also vac seal multi packed meat items separately so...
Pretty much mine as well. She loves camping, loves remote camping, loves road trips, loves travelling. Banging trough the woods, up over an around things at 3 mph all day? not so much! lol.
To add advice, my wife is ALWAYS invited along on trips. This is something we established many years ago...
I Don't see the benefit to this. The most difficult to the process of relocating is unscrewing the old fitting and screwing in the new one. Also, I've got the end of my rear diff breather up inside the tail light cavity which I'd trust more than this item.
Those various cleaning wipes are worth their weight in gold. I just used the Armor all cleaning wipes on the interior of my truck after a 2 week road trip of which 1 week was in Moab and 2 weekend trips to the MN north woods and they worked great.
Baby wipes for your person.
For dirty...
Which engine / trans does your truck have? I had an 03 Ranger previously. Mine had the 3L and manual trans. Dead reliable, simple little truck. If mine was 4wd and or extended cab, I would have kept it longer.
When I had a topper on my last truck I just used a couple of 2x4's cut a bit longer than the width of the toper and 4 ratchet straps hooked to the rafters in the garage. I would back in, unclamp the topper, bring the 2x4's in the bed with me, crouch down then put my back to the underside of the...
That golf ball idea is genius. Thanks for the tip.
Since we tent camp, we always load anything of real value in the truck and pretty much everything else gets tossed in the tent and the tent gets completely zipped shut. Out of sight, out of mind.
A combination of both. The foot print gets folded, the tent itself gets folded in 3rds and rolled and the rainfly gets stuffed. The reason is the footprint has it's own pouch and folding works best, the tent fits best when folded and rolled and the rainfly fills in the spaces in the main bag.
Great looking item, but, the money. Dang.
I do miss the "bag phone" my Dad had in the early 90's. It had an external antenna cable jack and we would regularly zip tie the antenna to a sapling we cut down and I would stand on top of the truck holding it in the air to get a call out in the woods.
My personal opinion is saying no to rear LSD on anything that will see highway speeds and snow/ice. I've owned a few vehicles that had them and ALL felt light in the rear during and just after snowstorms. My old Ford Ranger regularly liked to have it's rear try to pass the front. I prefer a...
