    Tire deflator kit??

    for almost 2 decades down I have watched people use all sort of widgets to deflate their tires. I have tried a few myself. This is what I have found to be the most reliable, and simplest, works the best and fastest. I have been doing it this way for about the last 6-7 years now. I have never...

    I just got my 10 year old a sun dolphin Aruba SS 8 foot at Wal-Mart for 148 bucks. It is stable. He isn't the best at paddling so I have no idea if it tracks straight. this is like the one he has: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Sun-Dolphin-Aruba-8-SS-Sit-In-Kayak/32333492

    GPS problems

    I have running game "here" and just downloaded maps.me a couple days ago. I am in a rural area and maps.me can't find any addresses out here but here can but maps.me shows more roads then here. Searches are better with here wether you have Internet connection or not.

    Mapping on my tablet

    I have been using HERE for a couple months and the "satellite" views in my are are non existent. They are just green background and worthless. I am in a rural area and the maps itself have been excellent, they even show the out of the way rural county dirt roads.

    Sould I even bother...CB Antenna

    No matter what you do there will be a sacrifice. I wouldn't get a new rack just to accommodate a CB antenna.

    Sould I even bother...CB Antenna

    Yep, my antenna his mounted on corner guards but grounded to the body. Easy to do. This is one of those simple things that can make things work better.

    Sould I even bother...CB Antenna

    Whatever you ground your antenna to becomes the other half of your antenna. When you mount it on a hood, trunk, hatch, bumper, fender, door or whatever you are not getting the best ground for your antenna. For best performance you mount or ground to the body, to bare metal, and the antenna as...

    Sould I even bother...CB Antenna

    With that in mind a CB is not adequate. But if you are running in a park, or running with other that do have adequate communications a CB is just fine to get you to the other vehicle in your group. If you need to reach out any further than that a CB is not a good option. I would think a...

    Sould I even bother...CB Antenna

    The question is how good of performance do you really need? I bought my first radio at a Wal-Mart about 6:00 am on the way to a trail ride. I got it with a magnetic antenna, installed it in the parking lot and it worked just fine for the ride. The radio didn't last long so I took it back and...

    Sould I even bother...CB Antenna

    The OP has a roof rack. It is in the way. I agree about with you on location but I won't work for everybody. I have a cloth top, won't work for me. I would rather be able to go top less than have my antenna be in the optimal location.

    It is all about compromise. Top dead center with a long antenna will work the best but will be in the way. Shorter antennas won't be in the way but won't performs as well.

    Sould I even bother...CB Antenna

    I used a hand held for a while and also tried radios like the ones above. They work just OK but not everybody has them like they do CBs. The problem I have had with handheld is they always seem to slip around and I can never reach them when I want them. If you do go hand held it is nice to...

    What is the back of the roof rack like, any place back there? You can always ground the mount to the body.

    TJ vs JK, best bang for the buck?

    Measure the a rear seat in a TJ. Have you kids sit on a couch and measure them. You will have your answer. It will not be possible to have three kids in the back of the TJ unless they are small enough were they should be in a car seat, if any larger they will be on top of each other. About...

    TJ vs JK, best bang for the buck?

    Up until your last requirement I would say a TJ. There are only 2 seat belts in back and even if you could safely add a third I can't imagine there being room for three child seats in the back of a TJ, let alone all the stuff that you would need to back for three young children. I have two...
