  1. Ham Radio head unit - perfect spot?

    For this head unit, the turn signal has plenty of clearance. I’m thinking about a boat load of Velcro to test it out. I’m fine drilling holes for the right mount, it seems viable
  2. Ham Radio head unit - perfect spot?

    Anyone tried to mount a ham head unit in this location? I can’t possibly be the only one who thinks this is absolutely ideal? Any idea how we could accomplish this? I’d only need to run a single cat6 to this location and of course…mount the head.
  3. Roof Top Tent (RTT) Suggestions

    I went Sherpa fwiw and it’s amazing. Sunroof opens and makes install of an RTT much easier
  4. Roof Top Tent (RTT) Suggestions

    I have the kali king and I only keep it on when we are camping and about a week or so after because I’m lazy. Just be aware of mounting to low profile racks. That’s the biggest challenge. I bought van ultra mounts and had to modify to make it work. The tent is amazing. I’ve never had one that...
  5. Out of State Purchase - Registration in TEXAS

    about a month i think. Pretty sure they had them well before they sent it to me.
  6. Out of State Purchase - Registration in TEXAS

    i bought mine in Oklahoma, it required nothing extra from me. I had an OK temp tag and my and my Texas tags were mailed to the dealer, then dealer sent them to me. If taxes are paid and registration is paid, you're good.
  7. Sherpa Roof rack install questions

    i had the same question and asked sherpa. This is their response to me. i opted to shift the rack rearward a bit to minimize the gap and reduce wind noise. I did also ask them if the rack would compress under full load, and it will not. Once installed, it will not move.
  8. TX>NM>CO: First Road Trip and Dirt In the 6G

    Very cool! I'll be doing the same thing at the end of October. Looking to cross from NM to CO offroad, pit stop in breck for two days then offroad back to Dallas (as much as possible).

  10. New iPhone iOS 26 update: CarPlay with widgets

    Got to play with the new carplay this morning,. Very cool. I did notice a serious improvement to the wireless carplay lag when watching videos. Huge and welcome improvement. Ios 26 on a 17 pro max
  11. Onboard air and auxiliary battery setups -- your preferences?

    It does feel like I'm in the minority of people though who want to build in adventure features, but adventure with a car full of family.
  12. Onboard air and auxiliary battery setups -- your preferences?

    I like the idea of hidden dual battery setup but i'm a no go on air in the cabin. So loud. That compressor belongs under the hood. Hybrids benefit less from a built in dual battery setup though, considering we have a 2400 watt inverter that can charge a power station super fast.
  13. Beginner Camping/Off-Road Build - suggestions?

    better tires. Most likely this vehicle w/ better tires can do far more than you're willing to try.
