Give the FZJ80 brake booster a try. It's a popular mod on the 70 series and should decrease pedal effort.

The aluminum frame goes around 3 sides. On my RV-5, the frame portion to the rear of the tent comes about 1 foot from rear wall. The left and right side are right at the edge. I haven't noticed any sharp edges that would puncture a mattress. Not mine but this thread has a pic of the inside...

Though you might not be interested in the extra bells and whistles, try looking at the Lexus LX570, which is a 200 series. In the US, they sold twice as many LX570's than LC200's.

These guys can probably build you one custom your specs. http://www.speedytanks.com/

Decode the VIN, it'll tell you the model year.

I'm okay with mandated TPMS on newer cars. Just make it defeat-able with a push of a button please. :)

Some vehicles with TPMS have rubber valve stems. And some have no TPMS sensor in the wheel but rather use the ABS sensors to detect a difference in tire diameter/pressure.

RUD Olympia Sprint?

Can't do this with a metal valve stem. Not sure how well it really works though. I've read mixed reviews.

I've heard good things about Laclede chains. They come in larger sizes too. http://www.lacledechain.com/traction/trucksuv

Yes, Toyo needs to list the Extreme sizes on their website. I received this information after requesting it. Post #38.... http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/83621-Toyo-OPEN-COUNTRY-A-T-II?p=1205386#post1205386

aGPS > GPS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assisted_GPS

Doesn't the iPad Mini plus cellular have Assisted-GPS just like the rest of the cellular iPads? Assisted as in using cell towers for quick location and true GPS satellites for navigation?

Mike, thanks, I'll give that a try next time.

I think they might all give you about similar comfort. However, the Exped mat is much wider than the other two... and that makes it more luxurious. I liked the Exped enough to buy three of them for the family. They link together nicely with it's squared off edges. My only complaint about them...

PM Silverscout, he has one in his 80 and I think is planning on getting a 2nd one.

Take a look at the Diono car seats. They sit a little more upright, lower and slimmer than most car seats. The frame is steel and allows for a less bulky seat. I can fit 3 across in our 5 series BMW.

cruiser guy, are you calculating MPG with imperial gallons? If so, you might be throwing some of the US members off. I think I can do 20mpg (US) with my 3B on a good day.
