I think I need new comms, and ram mounts. Not sure what I expect to find on prime day, but I have set a budget. I have little doubt that it will be exhausted on the LandCruiser & wife’s Wrangler.

For mounts, look for “Lido Mounts” they use the same ball as RAM Mounts for a fraction of the cost. They also make their mounts for specific devices. I am using several Lido Mounts for my IC7100 (mobile head unit) AnyTone 878 UV Plus (HT), iPad Pro, iPhone 13 Pro Max, and Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. I’m wanting to get another universal mount for a pair of “Cobra” FRS HTs to get them out of my center console to a place that is easier to reach to toss to spotters.
 
I am looking for some good tarp poles and a large 15x15 silnylon tarp, a Kelly chair, and possibly a Sea to Summit water storage bag.

Thanks for the tip. I've been looking for a mount for an 11 inch ipad pro, Ram doesn't seem to have what I'm after on that model.
 
If they ran a good enough deal on a Gazelle T4+ tent I might grab one! I bought a T3 before I knew about the T4+ so looking to upgrade, at 6'4" tall I'd love to be able to stand up straight inside!
That is a good plan. I think I will look for a Gazelle as well. Good call!
 
I scored an ICECO VL45 fridge yesterday at 20% off, this one is going in the 4Runner. Looks like the discount is still available on Amazon.

Not Overland related but I grabbed a small blue tooth receiver this morning for my garage, it was 20% off for Prime Day! Keeping an eye on the Gazelle tent now.

I have a T4, you should be able to stand up straight no problem.

I can put my arms above my head almost all the way straight at 5'8"

No T4 yet, might just wait for Expo East and try and get a deal there. Did pick up a highly rated portable solar panel, been wanting one for quite some time. BTW, price on that is $179, not the $229 that it is showing!

 
Here’s a T4 clone that someone in our group has and really likes.
