    Yukon 70QT Coolers $199 at Costco

    You can get a grey market Omega serviced by Omega, just not under warranty. You'll have to pay. Unless you have to show your receipt to Yeti, how are they going to know where you bought the cooler? Chad

    Yukon 70QT Coolers $199 at Costco

    Costco bought a bunch of Omegas from a European distributor for a cheap price and sold them in the U.S. They were sued by Omega and won. Yeti was mad that somebody was selling things for below their artificially high price. It seems like the same thing Rolex does. If someone sells Rolex for...

    REI Having 25% Off Sale on InReach, Should I Buy or Wait?

    AAA won't go off pavement to tow you. They almost didn't come tow my mother because her truck was on a gravel boat ramp accessible from a paved parking lot. The texting is what is appealing to me. When I was in Africa I had an international SIM card to keep in touch via texting but I was still...

    Mounting Ham Antenna to Jeep

    I'm having some problems getting my 2M/70CM antenna mounted on my jeep. I installed the Teraflex Antenna Mount that installs behind the tail light but I have noticed that all the connectors that join the PL239 to the antenna seem to have a PL239 connector on one side and a stud mount on the...

    Yukon 70QT Coolers $199 at Costco

    My local Costco (Tucson) has 5 of the Yukon 70 QT coolers. These are about the same price as the Ozark Trail coolers but are made in the U.S.A. They seem to get good reviews and seem very sturdy. The only problem I see with them is that the handles stick out taking up space...

    Coffee Makers?

    I have a Hario burr grinder that I picked up at a thrift for about $3.00. Luckily they didn't know what it was. :) When car camping I like to take my Coleman Mr. Coffee style drip coffee maker that sits on the Coleman stove. It takes a while to brew but it can make a lot of coffee at once. Chad

    REI Having 25% Off Sale on InReach, Should I Buy or Wait?

    Should I pick up an InReach from the REI sale or should I figure that Garmin is going to come out with a new version soon? I don't have a pressing need for one right now but would like to pick one up for travels. Thanks, Chad

    What I did was get the Renogy 100 suitcase with comes with a controller and went to the electronics supply store and got a couple Anderson Power Pole connectors and attached them to about 20 feet of wire which I connected to the controller of the panels. The controller makes sure that the...

    Ozark Trail "High Performance" cooler - any good?

    I went to 4 Wal Marts near my house and neither one had any. I asked two sporting goods associates and neither one had even heard about the coolers. I guess I should have headed over to Wetmore. Chad

    How frequent to clean camelback and what to use?

    I picked up a bunch of clearanced priced store brand denture cleaning tabs that I use once in a while. The newer Camelbaks have are anti-bacterial but I still clean mine once in awhile . Chad

    hand helds

    It's very easy to get the Technicians license. I went to an online test and took it over and over again until I learned all the questions and answers and then paid my $10 or what ever and took the test for real. It only took a week or so. Chad
