  1. I refuse to allow the pupil dilation drops (What is Tropicamide made or derived from? : deadly nightshade) There is a small up-charge for not using the drops - there is an alternative method of imaging the retina. For some reason, the effects of tropicamide are not completely gone after a few hours. My vision will retain a slight softness (lack of acuity) for several days.
  2. Yikes! $34 dollars, used on Amazon. And a solid 5 stars. Not available at my public library Overdrive.
  3. I was thinking that this might be something that would hold a few thousand and be mounted inside a closet behind some clothing - or something along those line.
  4. After reading and thinking about the responses to the question I've concluded that "for me" the answer is to have a "set aside" cash amount. The "set aside" amount of cash would be sufficient to fuel the rig back to a safe port or home base in the event of a catastrophic communications failure - where ATM and credit cards might not be reliable. The set aside would be stash cash and I'll probably need a vault of some kind for that. "Wallet cash" would be the amount that many have expressed that they carry. For me, probably no more than $600. though that seems a little high. Historically, there's always been a couple hundred in the camper but never a need for it. This thread has helped me clarify an answer to what is really a personal question. I appreciate all expressed insights - they've proved quite valuable to me.
  5. The guy who bought my Jeep brought $20,000 cash from Washington to Arizona.
  6. I was thinking of cash as an emergency backup system - not really for spending - with the exception of having enough small change for the iron ranger - such as the campground at Castaic Lake in So Cal where iron ranger expressly stated no check accepted. (i had no cash, so they got a check anyway)
  7. Opinions needed: What is a fair amount of cash to carry while on the road for five or six months? Keep some money in the RV and some in the wallet? How much? Thanks in advance. . .
  8. And if the truck has the upfitter switches then check YouTube - there are a number of video regarding connections, etc.
  9. Link iinsert: https://www.nps.gov/webcams-arch/arch_traffic.jpg
  10. Level ground, dark nights, no traffic noise, cleanliness. The most unlikely site for me was located in urban Memphis, almost directly across the street from Graceland. But it offered security and a local venue - we walked to Graceland and took an Uber to Beal Steet for dinner at BB Kings Blues Club. Very unforgettable and it was a place that I'd recommend. So I guess the answer to your question is; "it depends".
  11. Getting power to the camera; I bought a Dash Cam Power Adapter. This one: Dash Cam Power Adapter (10-Pin Type D) for Select Dodge "Please note that an auto-dimming rearview mirror is required to power this adapter. " The adapter is plug and play - it provides a handy USB power source for radar or dash cams. And it eliminates the need to run a lot of wiring. Plus, it activates when the ignition is turned on. And turns off when ignition is turned off. (30 second off delay is optional) I put this in my 2022 Trailhawk. I still have the old suction cup KDL dash cam in the 2015 Power Stroke and will look into upgrading it. (when I get around to it) File under: nifty gadgets The nitpicker in me had to have the right angle adapter for the USB plug for a cleaner look.

    It maybe just a casting mark.
  13. What about the summer months?
  14. The focus of this forum will have to be just one thing - anyone care to guess? Single source information sources - single point - are more time efficient. Thus, specialty groups attract more participants. "Time" grows increasingly important. Thus, broad based forums tend to suffer.
  15. Electrification is coming fast. 2-3 minute battery swaps are the "thing" now for motorbike manufacturer "Spiro" in Africa. I can see this spreading like wild fire on the African continent: Kenya is newest electric motorcycle market for Spiro
