    New Midland MXT275 (GMRS Mobile)

    I got a new ride and decided to not go "full radio guy" this time (last truck had HAM & CB radios). The only mobile radio I installed was a MXT275.

    On this day 79 years ago, the Bantam Reconnaissance Car was delivered to the US Army Vehicle Test Center at Camp Holabird, Maryland. It would eventually be developed into the Ford GPW & Willys-Overland MB.

    Gaia GPS versus Onx maps

    I vote for Gaia. I switched last year and now I wish I had switched years ago..... I still use OSM & Maps.me for off-line mapping as well.

    X-Bull Recovery Tracks...another inexpensive alternative

    Seek Adventure on youtube did a comparison video of these vs maxtrax. If the video was meant to show how great maxtrax was, it ended up being a great sales tool for x-bull because they performed so well (see the comments). After seeing how well they performed the video sold me on buying a set of...

    Palo Duro Canyon trails?

    yes sir. the texas OHV sticker is all you need. The rosita creek flats area is national park but all the websites I read claim you only need the texas ohv sticker (it's all I have ever had & I have never had any issues)

    Which GPS do you use

    I also like to work on a budget. For road routes I use a Garmin Nuvi 260W. They run around $25-40 on eBay and are rock solid (one of my three 260Ws is almost 10 years old and still rocking along perfectly) For off-road navigation (and uploading my own tracks), I use an old google nexus 7...
