 Life from the X-jack's point of view Nothing can compare to the look on someones face the first time they watch a giant orange marshmallow lift a corner of your rig off the ground. Ok it isn't really a marshmallow, and regardless of how it looks the ARB Bushranger X-Jack will get the job done quickly, safely, and in a variety of terrains.

Total Vision Self Spotting Cameras |
 Adjustable video window is always ready Today as I was uninstalling the Total Vision Self Spotting System from the FJ Cruiser so we can transfer it to the new Sportsmobile it struck me as the perfect chance for a long term review.
The system has worked perfectly and is so simple that I often use just like any other part of the truck, radio, gps, cruise control. The only feature I haven't made much use of is the ability to record to the laptop hard drive. I am just not a video guy, but if you are, then I am sure YouTube will welcome your under rig shots. |

Of course as the centuries have passed our choices in light sources have gotten cooler, as a matter of fact literally cooler with the ARB LED Adventure Light. |

Roof Top Tent on a Truck Bed |
 The finished setup ready for the trail First of all a big thank you to Camping Lab for donating a Roof Top Tent for the Continental Divide Expedition. Since that trip is over we had an extra tent around and Corbin our wheelchair guy just could not let go of the idea of seeing how it would work for his kind of folks.
Of course since Corbin is our resident fabricator little things like how to install it on his 2003
Dodge Dakota and how to open & close it where minor issues. More important was to find out what it would be like to access and sleep in this style of tent.
So follow along as Corbin creates a truck bed rack, figures out how to use the tent and reports on its comfort.

ZebraLight Wearable LED Light |
Zebra Light Head/Belt/Neck lamp
There you are setting up camp when a slight
drizzle causes your flashlight to die, or worse you drop it and with a
bounce and snap it hits a rock and instantly the dark surrounds you. Or maybe
the batteries are dying and you realize that there is only 1battery left of
the last 4 pack you bought, and your lamp uses 2 or 3 batteries. This is not
the time to start thinking about what makes a good camping light, especially
as amputee or wheelchair users who needs to watch the terrain and be careful
of hazards after dark. |
