    I'll leave you with some video of this years Moab event. After moab I came home and started on my custom rack and moved up to 37's.

    Pic Request.... Show me your fullsize quad cab going through the squeeze...

    That's my truck. I've been through that. Also, I love my Ramboxes and my rack and have zero complaints. I can walk completely around my RTT. You can view my build for all the places a full size truck will fit. I've been going down a list. Gold Bar Rim, check, Golden spike, Check, Devils...

    Mounting your remote display

    So I just picked up a Yaesu ft-8900r and wired up a straight through so I can remote mount the display. Planning on mounting the unit behind the rear seat in my truck so my cable run is as short as possible. Also have an external speaker to wire up too. So I'm thinking about a Ram Mount...

    weBoost 4G-X Review

    I've been using one for nearly three years now. These work great. Replace that antenna though with a better one.

    Tundra vs 5.9 Cummins - Help!

    Always wondered why Toyota couldn't be bothered to put a rear sway bar on the Tundra.

    Great looking Power Wagon. These rigs are very capable. You should bring it to Moab next year for the 11th Annual Power Wagons in Moab.

    BoldAdventures 2015 Power Wagon Build

    So we outfitted the truck and did our first camping trip in years! Wife and I haven't been camping since 2013. We don't really count living in or traveling in the Airstream as camping. We had a really great time, but came to a few conclusions moving forward. We want to build a custom rack and...

    I found it to be comparable. A good GPS unit is about $150+ which if you cac what you pay between wifi/gps version, you might as well just get the GPS version. Price difference is about what you'd pay buying an external unit. And the internal GPS is really damn spot on.

    GMRS as an alternative to CB or 2m?

    I'm actually taking the technican on the first Sat of June. And you clearly kept missing my point, that the test questions themselves for an entry level of technician are perhaps outdated. Most this stuff I know. But really, I still believe it's a barrier to younger people who don't care to know...

    GMRS as an alternative to CB or 2m?

    I'm glad it's so easy for you. :rolleyes: It's out-dated. 200 question pool for 30 question test, with questions like: This is for a hobby, when electronics were new and people built rigs. Save it for the General. Rules, Regs, Proper User Hobby is dying off and seeing limited use becuase...

    GMRS as an alternative to CB or 2m?

    I studied some for it and got annoyed at the level of electronics questions that I don't really care about. Was using Hamtestonline. Seriously, feel the question pool is heavily dated and not really designed for modern users. GMRS doesn't have that barrier. And I have a busy schedule. And with...

    Power Wagon common problems? Best years?

    I own a 2015 Ram Power Wagon. The thing to know is the suspension changed completely in 2014, along with the introduction of the 6.4L engine and 4:10 gearing. Prior years had a 5.7L Hemi and 4:56 gearing. 2014+ feature coil spring rear suspension for better ride and use a new articulink (rams...

    GMRS as an alternative to CB or 2m?

    As to the original topic, even though this is an old old thread, I wanted to comment on this. I have a cheap Boafeng UV5R. And recently lead a group of 22 vehicles for a seven day event in Moab. We chose to use FSR/GMRS channels becuase many in the group didn't have radio's in their trucks. The...

    I just spent 15 days in Moab using Gaia GPS with a 3rd generation iPad Mini with Wifi+LTE and 128gb on a ram mount. I use Gaia GPS and I love this app now. Zero problems with the GPS creating accurate tracks. This has been a fanastic setup. We also use it as our primary media device and just...
