    Electric chainsaw for specific purpose

    What you asking of the saw for your situation is not going to be cheap. I have a Milwaukee 16" cordless that I keep in the truck full time. Does 100 cuts on one battery charge and the saw has been nothing but flawless. Here is a link but I got mine at Home Depot...

    ARB Compressor Placement

    I got this for my Tundra. Have not installed it yet cuz I don't yet have a compressor. I would rather have the compressor inside plus it keeps room available under the hood for something else. Check it out, it may work for you...

    Help needed upgrading FWC 12V system

    I am a big fan of overbuilding things at times and if this was mine I would upgrade all the wiring with the appropriate circuit breakers, wiring, etc. Also I know you said you only go for weekends but again what if you wanted to go longer, or had to go longer? For this I would look into...

    Can't Find New Bolts for M416 Trailer

    I used stainless bolts and nuts as much as possible. Took all the old bolts I needed to a nuts and bolts store (not a hardware store) and they had everything I needed, including the big bolts for the lunette ring area. A lot of them were not the same thread as the originals but that didn't...

    Jackery 1000 vs dual battery vehicle set up for running ARB fridge.

    My fridge and accessories are ran off a completely separate system from my truck battery that is recharged via a solar panel. Recently spent 11 days in one spot and didn't have any issues maintaining my power needs, fridge ran 24/7. Battleborn 100ah batt with a Renogy charge controller and a...

    New Power Build | Mission: 3 weeks off grid remote work | Input? Specifically - solar panel mounting solutions?

    You have many options for the solar mounting. Those Redarc mounting things are crazy money. (seems everything Redarc is?) You could also get a foldable panel, keep it locked up in the truck, and just pull it out when you are parked. On my last vehicle I bolted the panel to a roof rack...

    I have one of these waiting for the funds to obtain a compressor. Wanted the compressor to be protected and came upon this, ordered it during a Christmas sale. They also make them for Ram and some other Toyota models...

    switching from a 4runner to a full size?

    I switched from 4Runner to a Tundra. I loved the 4 but Wanted the Tundra for more comfort on road trips and of course more power and capability of carrying things etc, ...it has delivered. From what you say you would need I would recommend you get a one ton and be done.

    Mechanic's take on Ford Bronco

    Ok it's probably me and I will never own one of these, but everything this guy complains about is so minor it's ridiculous. Lame article IMO.

    F150 Seat cover recs

    Neoprene is horrible. Wet Okole's only resulted in a wet A holy so only bought those once. In other words, SWAMP AZZ. That was in a Jeep that frequently had the windows open in the summers. Since then have only used canvas style seat covers. Currently have Carhartt seat covers and I feel...
