If you're being outbid regularly on govdeals you're offering below market for what you are after. Generally the only trucks in our service that go to govdeals are rigs that have major electrical issues or have been wrecked hard. Other serviceable ambulances are sold quickly at in person auctions...

I wish you luck, from what I've seen our used ambulances going for at work your budget is short to get into one of ours. They typically go through a second and even third municipal owner before they would get into that range. Many of those "resellers" are buyers/up fitters on contract looking...

With gaia my ipad essentially becomes that ultimate book of maps. I have everything at my fingertips from NOAA nautical charts for work to sectional aeronautical VFR charts, and national park maps for weekend trips.

Land rover most certainly had radios requiring a code in that time period. My '99 discovery had one code for the radio it came with scribbled on the inside cover of the owners manual, I purchased a replacement radio which arrived with it's code in sharpie on top of the radio.(i transcribed it...

The victron is a pretty advanced solar controller, power supply, and battery charger. Set up properly it really shouldn’t cook a battery regardless of solar input. I did find in my notes that my 75/10 had a forced firmware update a while back. Looking at logs it appears it was limiting charger...

Hrm, looking at the specs that fridge doesn't pull much more than mine and I'm not getting near that much draw down on my battery. Can you plug the fridge into ac for a few days and monitor the battery or connect the fridge to the load output of the mmpt to be able to view exactly what it is...

As a fellow southerner I'll give you a key piece of advise. It's VERY hard to properly prep a vehicle locally for sub 0 temps at home. most extension cords sold here won't uncoil in those temps, most stores don't carry winter washer solvent. Local stores don't carry or have installation...

What temp is the fridge set at? Does the vehicle have any ventilation of the area with the fridge? You may just need to increase the size of the battery bank relative to the load. I can pull off a single battery mainly b/c I'm running a smaller 50qt arb set for conservative refrigeration(i only...

Any modern rotomolded cooler should hold ice that long so long as you do your part pre chilling and keeping the lid closed. Yeti, RTIC, Pelican, Ozark Trail ect. We have an older RTIC 45qt that we use for extra space when travelling with the fridge packed full. Often as a freezer utilizing dry...

So image above is a pair of my wavian jerry cans, can on left is filled to the brim, can on right is full to spec(the line on the can). This was on my roof rack on a 100+ degree day. Neither leaked a drop of fuel but had the full can been in a tight holder it may have been unremovable without...

THIS. Fill them only to the full line and they shouldn't expand beyond reason, also filled to that level they will float should they end up in the drink.

There's a lot to consider that goes into that. One is the insulation of the box you intend to condition, the other is the amount of power you can contain(battery reserves) and regenerate via solar setup. then there's how efficiently you can power an hvac unit. Those dometics are generally...

Land Rovers are fantastic vehicles on and off road when properly maintained, unfortunately many buy them before looking into maintenance and repair costs. High maintenance vehicles always depreciate heavily due to the large percentage of them that will not be properly maintained as they age.

looks good @telwyn cant wait to see shots of it out and about with the m416!

Older BMW drivelines require staying ahead on maintenance just like the new BMW drivelines. I generally explain owners should maintain these as you would an aircraft inspecting on a schedule and focusing on replacing bits BEFORE they fail, rather than waiting for a failure to begin the process.

My guess is the tune is to bump the torque just off idle which is often very useful in this type of vehicle. BMW has quite a bit of tuning ability for different use cases with the variable valve timing and precise fuel control built into the drivetrain management. I've seen engines BMW touted...

I've given up my extra part time job I used to hold for a little extra cash. My primary job has become so understaffed that I can now work 16 hours (limited by civil service regs) 7 days a week if I like. No extra fuel spent commuting and they are working on making it where I can choose to work...

So if in the bottom of the PS reservoir you see white plastic that's the screen. If you can see through both hose barbs your unit doesn't have a screen and I recommend grabbing one that does off an older BMW or Jag at the junkyard.(pay close attention to the line sizes. The hose that's swelling...

I actually temporarily set up an old intercom out of a friends plane in our rover last summer, it's only a set up for pilot/copilot but it allowed the kids to both hear their movie on the ipad and talk to one another in the back seat. Also it helps them start to learn how to use the PTT aircraft...

We use an old sealine dry bag as a laundry hamper of sorts on trips. Though I don't generally hand it off the vehicle's ladder.
