    scanners. thoughts, comments and ideas...

    Agreed, many municipalities these days, even some smaller ones, are trunked. A lot of the older scanners don't trunk-track, so you gotta buy new to keep up with them. I know this won't help when the merd hits the ventilateur, but I use an Android smartphone. I also have a bluetooth stereo in...

    Radio/Antenna/Cell Phone Extender recomendations

    Then this radio will fit the bill, along with any other stock CB that suits your fancy. Where this one will shine for you specifically is it's space saving ability without sacrificing features you are looking for, namely weather, which it does VERY well, BTW. I have often been able to receive...

    Radio/Antenna/Cell Phone Extender recomendations

    My point above is that the Midland 75-822 is as good a stock CB as any other as regards output power, modulation, and clarity. Stock. Think, nascar here. The more you spend on a CB, the more farkles it'll have, but none of those farkles will extend your range. Your choice of a good antenna...

    Radio/Antenna/Cell Phone Extender recomendations

    I have the Midland handheld with the mobile adapter you're referring to. It's a great little radio and has the weather bands you need. Shop around and get the full package so you can use it as a handheld also. Takes about 10 seconds to go from mobile to handheld. I think it would be great for a...

    Rock and Roll beds?

    I just Googled folding seats and these came up, but they're made in UK so shipping would be a killer. I think the price was close to £2000! Needless to say we need a cheaper alternative. Rock and Roll beds are only 2 sections, though. The third section is the engine cover in a Volkswagen bus...

    Rock and Roll beds?

    We're installing the lid from a FlipPac camper on the roof of our Tgb11 in the spring which will give us a queen size bed up top. But I'd also like to install some kind of couch/bed in the far back. I've seen them with seatbelts so it could still be used for passengers, but having a place...

    Let's see your roof-rack organization pics

    I love these cheap alternatives. Great find on the chicken coop flooring. You could prolly clamp it to your roof rack with some small U-bolts, no? Or even J-hooks and wing nuts. Then it could be a shower floor, too.
