    Samsung Galaxy Tab A & GPS without WiFi

    Mine is a Tab A 8" SM-T350. I've been using it for over a year now with BCN Pro. I haven't had any problems with the GPS. You will have to download the the maps to have access to them without WiFi.

    Off Brand Android Tablets with GPS

    Samsung regularly has tablets on sale for under $100. I recently picked up two Samsung 7" Galaxy Tab A LTEs for $90 at Best Buy. I supply them to my techs loaded with parts and instruction manuals. With a good case they hold up very well. I use the 8" version with BCN in my Jeep.

    Advice for soon to be father...

    Best advice I can give: Be a parent, not a best friend. This is the important one. It's not your job to be their friend. It's your job to raise a productive, responsible, member of society. It's OK if they don't like you very much on occasion. Be consistent. Lay down the law and stick with it...

    Alpicool Fridge/Freezers?

    I can do that, but it may take a couple of days.

    Alpicool Fridge/Freezers?

    I bought the C20 from Amazon for $239. It's not large, but it's big enough for me when I'm out by myself. It's also large enough for a water bottle to stand up inside. The smaller one isn't. It weighs about 1/3 of my Basecamp 43qt. The problem with it was the location of the temperature sensor...

    Alpicool Fridge/Freezers?

    I bought one. It works pretty well but required some adjustment to get it to work properly. The temp sensor for the thermostat was mounted too close to the cooling coil causing it to short cycle. After modification, it works perfectly so far.

    Ford E350 7.3 water pump hints?

    Pull the radiator. It doesn't take long to get out and makes everything else go a lot faster. The fan clutch tools can be rented from most auto parts stores.

    2000 XJ Cherokee Build

    The trailer is about 1000 pounds, the car about 1500, so 2500 pounds. The 4.0 has gobs of torque and moves it a long very well. It's nice and stable as well. The only reason it's squatting that much is the back was full of crap as well.

    2000 XJ Cherokee Build

    I did make it work hard this weekend. No great camping trip, just to the track for a couple of days. About 200 miles round trip.

    2000 XJ Cherokee Build

    I also used the 3M Adhesive Remover. I have used the 3M Eraser wheel as well. Both of them work well.

    2000 XJ Cherokee Build

    I have hated the faded nasty plastic bumper corners since I bought this thing. After looking at all the options and not really liking how industrial the aftermarket bumpers are, I decided to replace the plastics. While I was at it I stripped the failing side molding as well. Before After...

    2000 XJ Cherokee Build

    The table is 48" X 24" and is adjustable from 22" tall to 36" tall. Folded it's about 2' X 2' X 3". The cabinet is a made by Rubbermaid and carried by Lowes. It's supposed to hang in a closet. I have my doubts about how well it will survive the heat of summer, but we will see. I did add some...
