    Modding Questions About New Dometic Fridge

    The Dometic CF50 refrigerator I bought arrived today and while I'm waiting for the bag to arrive I'm trying to figure out some ways to make it better. I wonder if anyone has ideas for tie downs. It would be nice if there was something like the ARB tie down that spanned the entire handle but...

    RTIC Coolers

    I got all 5 right. Oldsmobile did the same ad back in the 90s comparing their car to a Jag. Apparently it wasn't enough to keep the brand alive. Chad

    Best Safari style shirt for Expedition and Casual wear

    When I was in Africa I left a pen in a shirt pocket that went through the wash. A few shirts were ruined, but the next time I washed my Tilley shirt, the ink stains came right out. Chad

    Minimalist/zero drop hiking boots?

    I bought a pair of Thula Thula Minimalist half boots from their sales sheet. Before I bought them, I called and told them about my foot and what size New Balance shoe I wore, they told me what size I needed and luckily they had one already made. When I got the shoe, it was almost the most...

    GPS for open (and wet) car. Zumo or Nuvi

    I am pretty sure that the Montana can be used with gloves. I had mine on my motorcycle and could access the different functions while I was riding. Chad

    A sad day.... I blame all the haterz.

    I've had people like this talk at me. It's much better to listen to them online. I can turn it off instead of trying to make my getaway. Chad

    Red Wing Heritage Boots

    8 1/2 EEEE. Minimulist Thula Thula. I got them for my upcoming trip to Africa. I also figure that since the Sonoran desert seems a lot like Southern Africa, they would be good for hiking around here too. The only problem with them seems to be that the heel was too large, but after a few days...

    Red Wing Heritage Boots

    I got a pair of these yesterday. They were in their sale PDF and were a pair that was ordered but not picked up for whatever reason. At first they weren't that comfortable and I was hesitant to wear them out of the house. Then I wore them down to the park and walked around in them for about...

    Looking for a good Parka

    A few years ago I picked up a parka at Ross. It was something like $50. I can't remember what brand it is because I live in Tucson, AZ and don't have much call to wear a parka, but it was a good name brand. When we were going up to Flagstaff over the winter, it kept me nice and toasty. Chad

    When they say unofficial they don't mean unlicensed, just that there are no specific frequencies allocated to outdoor activities. Chad

    GPS For A Dune Buggy In Glamis.....

    I have the Garmin Montana and like it a lot. Yes, it is expensive but it is very nice. I have a RAM mount for my motorcycle and the locking Garmin AMPS cradle. I recently got another AMPS cradle and a mount for my Jeep so I can move the GPS from vehicle to vehicle. I didn't bother with the...

    having a hella time finding a rubi with the right options

    Get a Garmin Montana and a Garmin AMPS Rugged Mount. It locks the GPS in place and prevents the casual thief. This is what I have on my motorcycle, and when I get around to it, I'm going to put one in my YJ. Chad
