    I just realized this was posted back in May. I was going to ask you to send me some coffee. :)

    AGM battery life?

    I agree. Also, people who are running an AGM are usually doing so for a reason. Like me. My single 94 R should really be a dual battery system and it's got a lot of stuff running off of it. It won't last nearly as along as a flooded battery in a toyota corolla.

    AGM battery life?

    Depends on heat, cold, charge cycles, usage, etc. No way to put a number behind it.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    I'd have to look at the specs of the renogy. I don't know anything about them. But there are quite a few determining factors between solar panels.

    Zamp Solar 100W Kit - Assistance

    Mounted the panel today which fit very nicely. Ignore the mounting feet. I realized after I took pics I did it wrong and then went and re did it. I'm going to get a solar controller and use this and my portable.

    02 blazer build

    I had a 1995 LT I drove for like 6 years. Main issues were the spider injectors going bad. Then EGR issues. HOWEVER, it never left me stranded. I traded it at 168,000 hard miles. I was college age and didn't have a penny to maintain it. Sadly, this is the only pic I have of it.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    So I actually just re did the mounts because I realized I was a little backwards. I used my frontrunner rack and drilled out the mounting tabs they supplied so I can fit the proper bolt for the rack. That's all secure now. I have to order this...

    2018 Nissan Armada as overland vehicle

    Yeah, the 2012 and the newer ones aren't the same. I was sitting outside of my hotel the other night looking at an Armada wondering why they aren't more popular. In the US, we don't have the off road gadgets on the "Patrol" that the Aussies have though so keep that in mind. I would consider a...

    Adirondack run

    I have, but it wasn't 100% trails. I've been going up there for years and love it there. Best thing you can do is download ioverlander. It'll guide you through a lot. However, ADK is huge so you'll want to pinpoint a starting place. We always start around Saratoga and head north from there...

    What did I just get? Galaxy 959 CB

    Funny enough, there's a place by me. Newport Bay Electronics in NJ. They've been there as long as I can remember. If you were really interested in getting it checked out I'm sure you can send it to them. I would def. trust them w/ it.

    Now I'm all messed up..

    Long story short, I've had my 2013 Tacoma for 3 year and love it. Always loved it and likely always will. I always said I would never get rid of it and this would be with me for life. This passed week I had a 2019 Silverado as a rental and drove about 600 miles in it. Wow. Now I understand the...

    Zamp Solar 100W Kit - Assistance

    Good point. I do have a Zamp portable as well. It's a 90W. I was just looking for something more set it and forget it. Maybe I'll stick w/ the portable for the time being.

    Zamp Solar 100W Kit - Assistance

    Just the one. I'm not even sure if I can make room for the one yet. I need to do some shuffling around now.
