    Rockhounding / gold panning /metal detecting

    Did a bit of that when I convinced my daughter to go to Wyoming with me a few years ago. We were kayaking and stopped for a break.

    How many of Chevy Tahoe's in the community?!?

    That’s cool. Nice find too. If you don’t already know about it, here’s a link to a Tahoe forum. There are sub forums for each generation. Great place to find info about your truck. There are a few overlanders too...

    inexpensive 5lb bottle mount?

    If your tank is 8” diameter like some are, then a 20# fire extinguisher bracket should work. I had to adjust the closing strap on mine. Less than $50, versus paying the overland tax.

    Ford Maverick and the small overlanding pickup truck

    As fast as they can make is a key point. Maybe 3 per month.

    Ford Maverick and the small overlanding pickup truck

    Why not call it the Courier. Like the Bronco Sport, it’s based on the Escape platform, so it’s a unibody. that makes me leery for some uses.

    GMRS installation

    Something to be aware of with a hood lip mount, or any hard mount really, is you will need to have metal to metal contact for the antenna to work properly. That mount looks like the screws will bite and provide it.

    Good luck with your install. How are you planning to mount the antenna?

    GMRS installation

    Definitely go straight to the battery. You’ll have less chance of noise induced through the power cable,plus your battery will act as a filter itself. Be absolutely sure to put an inline fuse in, as close as practical to the battery.

    Always good to have another overland hound.

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Lots of overland stuff starts as pieces from a table saw.
