    Battery upgrade vs dual battery install

    I have no complaints with my Optima red and yellow tops managed by an IBS DBS, and they've been stressed like any other off-road battery, to include depleting their power. I also use a BatteryMINDer. Until they prove otherwise I can see no reason to ditch them for something else...

    [chuckle] Never. Did my wife put you up to that? I don't remember. That stopped being a figure to cite when Disco died and I got married. I'm retired, am considered disabled by the Veterans Administration, and have an AARP card. It takes me very little effort to put in the 4 spring bars...

    Older and Wiser minds please chime in!

    I have a CanBack and really enjoy its flexibility. I can roll up the sides and run it as a surrey top and it's the only soft top rated to carry a load designed to attach to the spreader bars and uprights such as a RTT or basket rack. The penalty is decreased aerodynamics and fuel economy...

    Nice work Chris! Your talent extends beyond the shop floor; now if you only made one with the silhouette of a lifted Toyota Tacoma, [sigh]. Maybe next year. Have a good holiday!

    I wasn't enjoying sleeping on the ground anymore. I picked this cot up 2 years ago after a long search for something that packed small, reasonably priced, and lightweight. I found this from Alps Mountaineering and have been very pleased...

    Mean Green alternators

    Like I mentioned earlier I have an 01 Tacoma also and am still satisfactorily using the original alternator without issues showing 13.5-14 volts on the Scangauge.

    Mean Green alternators

    "...having a very hard time maintaing a charge." And going TAD... Need more information before recommending replacement of the alternator as PM. I have an 01 also and my alternator is fine. If your truck is sitting for long periods between VA and CO visits, your battery will likely loose...
