    Campsite scalping

    As much as I think the lack of spots is bullspit, enforcement is not likely to happen. I would like to see a task force to go after the scalpers, but to expect the rangers or camp hosts to go around and check license plates and ask for proof of ID is likely not going to happen. They have...

    Leaking air bag valves.

    When I bought my Class C I was told one of the aribags needs topped off each day to stay at pressure. When I tried to fill the valves they both leaked like crazy from the back side of the valve. I unscrewed the valve and inspected them but could not easily reach them or free them from the...

    Which maps do you use in Gaia?

    So I probably have too many map options but it looks as I thought, each and every map offers something possibly not available on another map and you need more than just one or two. Still, my total download for the western US took 30+GB and two days to download.

    Which maps do you use in Gaia?

    Do you have to import the ESRI maps into Gaia? Do you have a link on how to do so?

    Which maps do you use in Gaia?

    I have downloaded a bunch of maps to cover the entire group of Western States. I have downloaded really a stupid amount of maps. When I browse through them they all seem to offer a slightly different view, with each offering something. Still, I would like to get rid of the excess maps. I...

    Pocket Media Group buys Gaia GPS

    Exactly my thinking. Fortunately, I bought. a 5 year subscription. I would buy or extend it by 5 more years now if I could. Do they make decade subscriptions? Looks like it has already happened. I think I purchased mine a year ago. A subscription for 5 years for less than $100. I just...

    GPS recommendations for seniors

    Any of the mapping gps or programs will have a very steep learning curve for someone who does not even use a smart phone. Does he have grandkids that can help him setup a pad and download the maps for him? Whatever he gets, he should likely carry a paper chart and emergency communications as...

    Dually tires

    I got the stem extension with the braided hose and a clamp to hold it in place. It looks like I will need to remove the outer tire from the dually to install it. I am looking for any hints on how to do this. I have a small 4 ton bottle jack and Currently, the outer tires are up on a 2x10 to...

    Spare tire in front of grill.

    Now that we have established a tire out front is not a problem. Can we discuss the options to do so? Somewhere down the road, I would like to have the option to add a pair of bikes, an E-bike, or maybe a motorcycle as well as the tire. Would the previous setup allow this? Would this front...

    Spare tire in front of grill.

    My RV is a 22 foot Born Free with a rear door. My spare tire is stored in the largest storage compartment which I would really like back for storage. I have a front hitch on my truck and have used it to carry bikes on a 4 bike rack. I am considering adding a front hitch to my RV and putting...

    Which van to start with?? Please help

    E250 and 350 are referred to as Ford and the Mercedes Sprinters. The Ford Vans are easier to convert to 4x4. I would guess the cargo van would be an easier place to start with, the biggest drawback is the lack of windows in the back. I am not sure of the legality of lack of seatbelts but my...

    Dually tires

    I was told a braided hose is the way to go over a rigid one. Less stress on the stem. Also looks like this one has a clamp to secure the hose in place.

    Dually tires

    I have them in my shopping cart right now, I was just waiting on confirmation as to them being the right way to go. What about alligator valve stem caps?

    Dually tires

    Sounds like an awesome system, I will look into those. I am guessing if they work in the trucking industry they must be reliable for that need. My concern though is does a single flat turn into a dual flat? I have read about stem extensions and alligator valve stem caps. Only one side of...

    Dually tires

    Trying to simplify my tire inflation on my Born Free 22. I bought it in December and drove it home, now just getting to outfitting and prepping it. The biggest stumbling concern so far is the tires. The weird hub caps in the front and duallys in the back makes checking and filling air a pain...

    Switching my life to "not Jeans". Can I get some recomendations for good NON JEANS

    We have an Eddie Bauer here locally and I have been investing in their gear. Eddie makes some okay stuff for the price if you get it on sale. From black Friday till New Years day everything is half off, I think most holidays and end of he season will see 30 off, I would never pay retail for...

    Switching my life to "not Jeans". Can I get some recomendations for good NON JEANS

    I am a big fan of kilt wearing, but this ad is just cheezy. There is not a lot of security or protection in a kilt if you are wearing it correctly.

    Where can I shoot?

    I will give that a try. I am definitely struggling with vision problems. Up till a few years ago I had better than normal vision but my eyes have aged out of that. I can choose to have the sights or the target in focus. 15 feet with the laser in the home. FIgure I might do okay at the...

    Where can I shoot?

    I might have gone through your town this past summer. I took a trip to Sandpoint and drove all around the region. I like it up there.
