Uniden scanner
Cheap sunglasses
Alpine mp3 headunit
Custom keytag thing hanging form the mirror
F-16 keytag
And my mascot, Mike the moose.

Are you a former Viper driver?

I was at the Weapons School in 86.

Love the Moose!

I see Moose where is Squirrel?

Moose has gone missing and there never was a Squirrel.

Nope, not a Viper driver, just an aviation enthusiast.

-Uniden BearCat 880 with custom dash mount and 4’ Firestick antenna out back
- GoPro Hero 5 as Dash camera on loop
-5 broken Visibility laws!

Just curious--why do you need Apple Carplay and an iPad at the same time?

Apple CarPlay relies on an Apple device to work... its the interface software between the headunit and the device.

Gotcha. No iPhone, I guess. I ask because I replaced my factory radio with an aftermarket unit to get the iPad out of my line of sight.

with CarPlay you can hide the Apple device and use the headunit for nav, music, email, and web, along with a lot more

I think we are in violent agreement! That's why I did it and why I'm surprised you still have the iPad mounted in such a way.

I posted earlier (#'s 55 & 56) and I've since added a couple of action camera mounts to my Jeep LJ. It was fairly straight forward to fabricate a bracket for each side of the dashboard and mount them using existing dash hardware. I used RAM mounts. The cameras can be taken off quickly and mounted to our kayaks and bikes.

Going for the budget/minimalistic cockpit. All kiding aside all I have right now is an iPhone with GAIA and some other apps and my HAM radio. But Y'all do have some good looking rigs.

Is that a 2018 Apple iPad Pro?

I'm about to get one, myself. Happy with it for an in-car tech solution? What case is that? Thanks.

It is a 11-inch iPad Pro with the otter box case on it (got it last month, so I don't know the year per-say). I haven't had it long, I'm still tinkering with the mount and how I want it face. So far it works great.

Thanks for replying. I'm currently using a 6th-gen (circa 2016) Amazon Kindle Fire HD8. It works, but it's not great for this use case; it's just what I had on-hand. And, while I have nothing against Android, I am well entrenched in Apple's ecosystem, so I am excited for the new iPad. Mounting it might be a challenge for me, too, though. I'm thinking I'll bite the bullet and invest in some RAM mounts.
