    What is the best Online and offline offroad GPS mapping App for USA and Canada

    Agreed. I read a lot about onX last night and decided to go that direction. I liked the training videos to help with the learning curve. I will say the only thing I dislike initially, mostly out of being a newbie, is that the file size is limited to 4MB. Kent sent me the CDT2023 .gpx file and it...

    What is the best Online and offline offroad GPS mapping App for USA and Canada

    I just looked at Leadnav and for a $20 lifetime basic version it seems to have most but not all the items one would need. And you are correct, no offline maps. That will cost you $70 a year. But I will wait to see if anyone else is using it and can comment on functionality.

    Cheap Amazon Diesel heater recommendations?

    I saw this tire step in a video with the heater sitting on it so I bought it because its cool and has helped me work on my engine and bed area. Now I use it so often I couldn't imagine not having it. https://a.co/d/ec4eJPp

    Cheap Amazon Diesel heater recommendations?

    I just finished installing the Vevor 8kw heater in my truck. When I tested it, it was not as noisy as I was expecting. Since the fuel pump is mounted on the frame rail, it is hardly noticeable. If you want a video of the heater running, let me know. Lets say that this heater is oversized for my...

    F350 CCSB build

    This morning I had the not much fun of visiting the VA Dental Clinic. I think I am going to call Elon about the utter and complete inefficiency of that govt org. I dont know why it still baffles me. When I finally got home at NOON....half my day was gone. I got busy slow cooking a Lamb roast...

    US West Gold Butte-Grand Parashant-Grand Canyon--Nevada-Arizona-Utah

    Am I jumping the gun and the files are not ready to download? Or am I missing something else, a brain perhaps?? The 3 files are "greyed" out on the event page. I get the international red x when I hover over the links.

    Moving right along, I started to rethink the diesel heater install. I wasnt overly excited with the initial attempt. Rightfully so I am definately worried about Co2 coming back in the cap. The heater exhaust exits right at the trucks exhaust tips so I might be worrying about nothing. I will most...
