thanks Dave! Think you have mine, but just in case: 509-844-4560

Will either of these devices be able to receive power from a built in USB port in the vehicle? I do a lot of "adventuring" alone, and it would be great to have some way to stay in contact with the family. Can one create several pre-typed text messages which can be sent via a single key stroke...

If you need an owner's manual, why not try a foreign car wrecking yard? Google all the ones around your home town then let your fingers do the walking.

The first bike I ever owned, an '02 F650GS Dakar that took me on some fun trips. One of the worst mistakes I ever made was selling it. Present DS, well actually a DS hack. My '13 DL650/M72D combo. Fun ride, beautiful engine. The whole thing just works!

Very adaptable too! If you don't have to have tons of power to go screaming down dirt roads and two tracks, it can be modified to do just about anything and get you there and back again.

This segment of EP seems to be pretty quiet. So thought I should put up a pic or two of my 2013 DL650/DMC M72D sidecar setup. I bought this hack setup pretty much like you see it. Added a few farkles with a few more to go on this winter. The big one will be a steering damper to help remove...

Well, I am envious! I have always wanted to do the White Rim Trail. A buddy of mine and I did the Lockard Basin Trail 8 years ago, and he had done the WRT the year prior to that. Just haven't been able to get back there with enough time to do it myself. I usually zip through Moab on my way...

Clutch, Torfab will be doing my OME lift, WhiteKnuckle sliders, ComeUP hidden winch on a BudBuilt plate, and a set of Rigid LED lights. They're having a local Les Schwab dealership install and align the tires. I've just asked them to sipe them at the same time. I'm also installing some...

Paddlenbike, Great ideas, thanks! One thing that really worked well for me with my 3rd gen was to remove bottoms of the rear seats. Very easy to do, just two bolts per side. when I laid the back of the rear seat in its horizontal position, I had enough room for a 6 gal. water container...

I'll check and see what installing studs will cost. Probably cheap insurance actually.

These look great! but not in the right size. I have no complaints at all about the AT3 on dry or wet roads, or even on snow. You are correct; they are as quiet as sin. They just don't work well on black ice. Black ice is pervasive here in the winter. Studs. The only thing that studs...

Great ideas. Unfortunately, neither are made in my size. :(

thanks Clutch! I haven't ordered anything from EE in a long time. Will jump over to their site and see if these would work for me. Great idea!

One of the primary prerequisites of my tire selection was that it be a 255/80R17 size. I only found two readily available; the BFG KO and the Cooper ST/MAXX. I picked the Cooper because I thought it would be better in, guess what, snow and ice. I like tall, skinny tires. There is a reason...

Well, same thing happened with the AT3's this morning. Hocky pucks is a good term for these tires on black ice. Applejack, You're memory is fine. I just rechecked my new tires; no snowflake. I, in my senile dementia, must have confused them with the General Altimax Arctic's that I had...

Yes, I did that in the '97 T4R. Instead of 'biners I used some heavy duty nylon rope looped around the front seat brackets. The ratchet straps were connected in an X pattern diagonally across the back storage area. But this time I want to have two more centrally located tie-down points on each...

The ST/MAXX's have the winter snowflake emblem on their sides, and they can be studded. I shy away from studs as they tear up the roads around here something awful. I didn't get these Coopers with winter driving as the primary use for them in mind. But I do plan on getting the center of the...

Um....never would have thought of that. I'll check it out. thanks!

Here is what the chuckwagon looked like in my 3rd gen T4R. The center empty areas now hold a storage tray on the bottom and a Camp Chef two burner stove in the top. The empty area on the right holds an ARB frig on a sliding tray:
