If you want something that's more versatile (but more complicated.) Check out Fugawi's Global Navigator. It doesn't inherrently have any maps but will import just about anything commercially available or anything you can scan into your computer (color scans of maps up to 36x48 are fairly...

If you like the outdoors, Las Vegas is one of the best, most overlooked cities. Within 4hrs of town you've got the largest national forest and the largest wild life refugee in the continental US, plus the least visited, least crowded national park in the country (great basin.) We've got...

Andy, Welcome to Las Vegas. We've met a couple times (mojave road, calico, etc..) We've got a few trails out here which are a little cooler than the valley. Most are fairly mild, but Rocky Gap road out of Red Rock is pretty fun now that 40% of the "road" is washed away. For scenery Wheeler...

Thanks, there was this one canyon on the way home where the cacti and cresotes were covered in the stuff. It was interesting because its a really bright orange. Matt

Well we certainly had a good time. We're only sorry we couldn't attend the whole trip. Here some pics from just day 1: Does any one know what this parasite is (picture BELOW not above?) We spent most of day two at Ash Meadows Wildlife Preserve: Spring hadn't quite reached...

We'll be there for at least Friday. Matt

Yeah, we'll do something like that. We may just stop at furnace creek and then head back south and visit China Ranch on the way home. It might be worth taking a hike down Armagosa canyon if there is a lot water. Or we might try camping somewhere closer to home. We'll definitly meet up with...

We'd like to head out with you guys on Friday but we won't be heading over to Saline valley for Saturday and Sunday. We've been hearing all kinds of information about how lush everything is this year so we want to get out there. But we've got a new little one who has never been camping before...

Let me know if you want to make a trip a little further east. Matt

You'll be pretty far from where most of the damage is. The road from the south side of Saline valley up to race track used to be a pretty fun side trip but I think its been graded. Enjoy, Matt

Slow and relaxed is definetly the way to experience death valley. Did you find out if we would have to stay at designated "group" camp sites? If you're out there in 2 weeks I'd be interested in knowing the road conditions. The official line on the website lists every dirt road in the south...

Amsteel Blue is pretty common, you can buy it from any rigging supply house. It can be spliced quite easily. Here's samsons link for instructions: http://www.samsonrope.com/home/industrial/theatrical-amsteel.cfm?ProdNum=153 There is also a dealer locator, any large rigging house will be able...

Would it be naive to think I could get from Burbank to Fullerton in about 35 mins (It looks like its only a little more than 30mi?) I'll be out that way tomorrow and thought I might stop by on my way home. Matt

The object is to keep it in second, not first. I like to take a look at the 97+ schematics if anyones got them. Matt

I only carry one on special occasions. I finding attaching it to the back keeps other drivers from getting too close. I've always been a little concerned about it rupturing and spilling everywhere, but maybe I'm just overly cautious. Last night as I was walking the dog, a guy in a pick...

I used the sleeve on the frame end. When I got mine that end of the stabilizer was just the rubber bushing with no insert. Putting the sleeve in the rubber bushing gave me a much better & tighter fit on the frame end. The sleeve doesn't slip right into the bushing, but a little bit of...

So the front axle is the one rotating? I'm having the same problem with mine right now. Turns out the control arm bolts are tight, but on the upper arms at the frame end the rubber is warn/crumbling so much that there is 1/2" of movement. Matt

I was wondering also, your (Eagles) numbers seem high from my experience. I was using the following (assuming your 31s are 31" in diamter.) Circumfrence = 97.34" RPMs at tires at 65MPH = 705 4.56 Gears 1:1 4HI Transfer case .753 Overdrive Transmission (AW4) That gives me - 2421RPM with the...

Auto with 31s and 4.56 no problems. I've been runnning that way for a year and love it. You can go about 80 and be just around 3000RPMs. With the Jeep lifted higher (read more wind resistance) and all the added weight I still drop down to 3rd gear when pulling a steep grade on the Highway...
