At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

    What's do you think the most impactful first upgrade is to a rig?

    You need to get out there with your vehicle as is. You will figure out what YOU need to do to your vehicle to improve your experience. From the list, I would prioritise things that make it safe for you like first aid, navigation and driver training. If you are a newbie, travel with friends that...

    Satellite Messengers: Garmin InReach vs Spot for Non-emergency Offroad Recoveries

    I really like this device, my Garmin Montana 700i. I've used the other Garmin Inreach devices and their interface is awful, the same as their other backpacking GPS units. The Montana interface is more like a mobile phone, with proper touchscreen controls and message typing. The display is large...

    S/how do you carry paper maps and books?

    I have electronics that use Google/Apple/Gaia maps and a Gamin satellite navigation device, which I use primarily for roads. But…I always have “old school” maps, too. The 50-state Rand McNally resides in the seat back pocket and I have trail maps for many National Parks, forests and wilderness...

    Third try - now a Bison!

    This is one option. I would recommend you go with the upgraded ram/rom on it too. Ours is low powered and you can tell when trying to get apps to fire up. But once it's running it's great. OEM 9 inch Android 13.0 for 2017-2020 Chevy Chevrolet TrailBlazer S10 Colorado Isuzu D-MAX Dmax MU-X...

    Satellite Communicator--Which is Best Deal?

    I have a Garmin Montana 700i. It has a much better interface than the smaller InReach's, almost like using a standard mobile with a touchscreen and familiar keyboard interface. Although it doesn't have a consistent phone number, those who need to reach me can enter the Garmin email into the...

    How do you track your travel.. ??

    I use a combo of a few apps (digital navigation), dedicated GPS (in-vehicle navigation) and paper maps (in-hand navigation) for travel. However, when it comes to tracking purposes, I'm pretty simple.

    What's do you think the most impactful first upgrade is to a rig?

    It really depends on what vehicle you start out with as the base. A stock Jeep, Tacoma, or the like is pretty capable from the factory. So I started with a 2016 JKUR. Came with a 1.75" lift and 285/70/17 Falcon MT tires. No urgent need to upgrade any of that. Came with lockers front and rear...

    How do you track your travel.. ??

    Speaking of paper maps, does anyone know of a source online for MVUM paper maps? I know they’re generally free at ranger stations, but when I head out for weekend trips I can never seem to make it to the ranger station before they close. I’m generally pretty ok at keeping my bearings and...

    How do you track your travel.. ??

    Interesting concept, however, being the overlanding curmudgeon that I am and since I depend on no digital mapping tools, I leave breadcrumbs. Actually, my wife is amazed at how well I remember where I have driven before, sometimes years later. We were recently out with a fellow traveler that...
