That's awesome to hear. You've listed off like all of my desired use cases as well, hah!

Yeah, if you wouldn't mind that would be awesome! Thanks for the info. I've been looking at the seicane head unit for a couple years now, would you buy it again if doing it all over? Is there a way to update the version of Android on it if desired?

Nice setup, is that the seicane audio head unit? what is the mount you are using for the tablet up at the driver side sun visor?

Welcome, Jess!

*i should also point out that the morning temps range quite a bit depending on what elevation you are camping at.

I have done some of the Southern parts of it, but not the whole thing. You'll definitely have no problem doing the southern half in late November (in fact, the daytime weather should be fantastic), but will possibly run into winter weather issues for the northern part. Even on the southern...

Just this past weekend we pulled into a fantastic looking dispersed camp spot. Within just minutes of getting out of the rig, my wife and I counted no less than a half dozen piles of bear scat and about a dozen piles of wildcat scat. We have three kids 10, 6, and 1 so we said a big NOPE and...

This weekend we were up in the clouds on one of the many sky islands of Baja Arizona.

Hinge steps are so damn useful. I have the EAG ones on my rear doors like you and they were a total game changer for accessing the rack.

@jim SoG Oh yeah, sorry, Granite Peak* thanks for noticing that typo!

That reminded me of the time Adam of Let's Not Panic had a little dance with their ARB awning in heavy wind. If I recall, they had a similar experience with ARB during their replacement request. This clip still cracks me up:

Awesome, great turnout!

I'll be the practical guy: Are you actually experiencing any limitations right now? If not, wait on it. If so, how annoying are the limitations? Like do you find you are being stopped "gatekeepers" while off-road? Are you just having to take bypasses around obstacles? Are you finding that you...

Since I haven't posted a proper update in a while, here's something of significance! Some relatively major changes have been done to the tires and suspension. Last week I put in a 2.5" AEV DualSport XT lift to raise us up a bit more, and yesterday morning I put in OME heavy load rear coils...

Nah, in-vehicle it should work fine. Most of us tend to mount ours on or near the dashboard, too, which typically has a nice clear view through the windshield.

Gaia has no issues continuing to record with no cell signal. I suspect your issue was with GPS reception inside the airplane. Since a metal tube is not dissimilar to a Faraday cage, I suspect you were not able to get a decent GPS connection from inside the plane. If you held your device against...

I use a QStarz bluetooth GPS puck (specifically the BT-Q818) for my non-GPS capable android tablet. These steps should be the same no matter what android tablet and bluetooth GPS device you end up using: Pair your external bluetooth GPS device with your tablet Enable developer mode Go inside...

@jim SoG: I suspect we'll be heading up to I40 then west from there to the camp turnoff. If there is nobody from northern/northeastern AZ joining the caravan, we will likely take a more direct route from Phoenix which will shave off an hour or so of drive time. in either of those cases, we'll...

We love taking the kids out, ours are 10(boy), 6(boy) and 1(girl). With our youngest we did wait until she was 5 weeks old before we took her into the bush. Her first was a 6-day trip through AZ and UT, she's gonna be a pro. I have been on a few solo trips which were pretty nice, but haven't had...

Very nice! I plan on picking one of these up before my big Baja trip in November. Is that the G5 or the G6?
