    OBD2 Fusion (GMC Suburban 1500)

    When I search for "torque" It ends up with "OBD Fusion" so I wonder if it's the new (same) version?

    How do you store your trailer?

    I've seen some dolly devices that race car builders use to weld up a frame or roll cage. Think of a engine hoist on steroids. They attach to front and back of the car and can allow a complete rotation of the vehicle. I wonder if that would work for trailers? Attache to front and back...

    Cheap tricks and solutions - product modifications, DIY, or repurposed items- not on-sale items

    I ran across a Hoffman enclosure on Craigslist last year for $100. As we use it, it's 48"w x 36"d x 13"h. Perfect fit behind my 3rd seat in my 1999 GMC Suburban (with the spare tire out). It was a heavy ******** though so I skeletonized the bottom, sides and back (see pics). Eventually the bottom...

    Questions for the Suburban/Yukon XL owners out there...

    From what I have learned in the past year (mostly on this site), get a 2004-2006 2500 with a lift gate (not a tail gate). Sadly the barn doors aren't available on those models. Earlier years are good too but those 04-06 have a slightly refined comfort level than 03 and earlier.

    Scepter Jerry can question

    Why does it say "* Note: Federal law prohibits the use of this container for the storage of fuel." Is it because they aren't CA CARB complaint? http://www.roverparts.com/Parts/GJC20SPK

    Order of Operations (What should I buy first?)

    I would add: Look at Samyang (Rokinon) wide angles. They are manual focus but for landscape... it doesn't move anyway. MF lenses can work in your favor. Their 14mm is supposed to be very good. I also saw something not too long ago about a new line of Samyang lenses coming out soon. Just haven't...

    Help ID & age a canvas tent

    I've seen two "space 10" "...11" tents that have a full width front awning. Ours is door width so maybe a "space 8" ?

    Help ID & age a canvas tent

    Can anyone help ID and age this tent? Full disclosure: I am not much of a tent historian. That being said, this is a canvas tent with features not often found in modern tents. e.g., clasps, hooks and clips. It is an external frame as you can see. The tag says "Eureka Tent and Awning" (and...

    Water alternative to the gerry can

    A 20L scepter (jerry can) is $40-$70 (depending on source). The MSR 4L $40, 6L $45, 10L $59 (at REI). FrontRunner bladder is $77 (replacement liner $13). I personally would probably lean towards a scepter style if they can be found at $40. Not too worried about the space they take up if your...

    ROOF RACKS - the GREAT, the ORDINARY and the AWFUL. How to select the right one

    His mention of lateral forces and mount failures, was something that I rarely see/hear about. Probably because his depth of true expedition experience versus the highway cruisers we most often see.

    Crosspost - OBD2 Fusion 99 Suburban

    Not one single over lander is using an OBD2 device with the Fusion app? And none are using ANYTHING different. Weird.
