More and cheaper choices for readers with Android. Would rather use Bluetooth than WiFi. Apple Bluetooth does not work reliably with some aftermarket Bluetooth devices (specifically Parrot for Bluetooth phone use in the truck, even though Parrot is supposed to work with Apple). Much wider...

All of my current phones are Apple. I am not an Android fan. For OP's situation, I think Android is a better choice. End.

It's a great compressor and would be my first choice if I had room for it. My SPI is the single cylinder version of that compressor, and it will run air tools all day if you need to, even without a tank. Delivers 12cfm free air flow and 4cfm at 90psi. Warn really screwed up when they...

And the Oasis is just huge. Tough to fit it into a truck that needs to carry a lot of other gear. Great compressor, though

But if you get an Android phone, you don't need to screw with WiFi because it actually works with Bluetooth the way it's supposed to. And there seem to be more OBDII readers for Android than for Apple, regardless of communications mode.

Top mounts are simple 2x2 angle welded to the prefab boxes from Summit Racing. The weight of the batteries hangs from the angle that rides on top of the frame rail, and the whole assembly is bolted through the frame rails with 1/2" grade 8 bolts, with backing plates on the other side instead of...

You can also order many of the 12V waterproof strips with a color-changing controller that allows you to select white when you need bright work lights or select red when you want night vision, plus several other colors. Single strip, multiple colors. There is a wide range of brightness in...

iPhone has a better user interface, but does not work with a lot of third party Bluetooth devices, unless they are Apple certified. And even some that are Apple certified don't work reliably. From personal experience.

Everything from ARB is really expensive, but the ARB will fit into spaces that the Zenith won't. The way the ARB portables are configured makes quick installations a breeze. I recently got an ARB single for another truck, because the ARB would fit space where no other quality compressor would...

I don't own of of these Bluetooth/WiFi readers, but when I looked into them I realized that this is another case in which Apple's goofy proprietary Bluetooth implementation makes an Android device a better choice for this app. I am an iPhone fan, but if this is your first smartphone, I'd lean...

Does that Taco have a storage bin under the rear seat bottom cushion? If yes, then the ARB might fit in the bin and still allow you to lower the seat over it. ARBs are pretty shallow when mounted on a horizontal surface. I think that if you get the ARB Twin in the portable version, you can...

You sure you can license that thing in CA?

I'm not a Mercedes guy, but a couple of friends have a bunch of Merc diesels and source all their new parts from Pelican Parts online, FWIW. Pelican has a pretty robust group of fanatic owners, so they should be able to help with some of your questions, like the speed governor issue.

I don't think you mentioned what kind of vehicle it's going in or whether you want hard mount or portable. Whether hard mount or portable, air tanks will speed things up considerably. If you use a portable compressor with tank(s), you will need two quick connects, one to get air into the...

That will help a lot. Our AZ trip was last week and the coolest day was 107, most above 110. When I first got my fridge, I ran it off one of the factory 12V outlets on the dash and it worked OK. If your Sub has the factory 12V outlet in the panel by the tailgate, that should be fine. But...

Not enough info for a complete response. Depending on the year of your Sub, the factory alternator may only be 105 amp (even if the build sheet says you have the "heavy duty" electrical package) and won't put out much at idle, so running for 10-15 mins/day probably won't offset drain of the...

This is on a 2005 Dodge Quad Cab 2500 Hemi. The rear box has been in there for about seven or eight years, and the front one just went in last month. Both came from Summit Racing, and I then reinforced them with 1/8" angle iron, and added angle iron top and bottom to let me use some of the...

Are your Tundras first gen or second gen? If second gen (2007+), where did you mount the second battery?

Been there, done that. Don't trust them as far as I can throw them. I have worked for companies that sold insurance, others that were the insurers, and have purchased hundreds of millions of dollars (premiums, not coverage levels) of insurance over the course of my career. They will get you...

No, it's your problem because they set premiums based on cost of probable repairs. And then once you have a claim they raise the premium even more to cover their butts. Insurance is legalized racketeering.
