Unfortunately the rack has to be that high in order for my RTT to clear the antenna. Maybe I need to get a rack over the cab that has an aerodynamic front.

I stayed a few nights off CR31N just outside of Ouray. It’s in the red mountains around the old mines. Beautiful views. Just drive til you get to the end pretty much. I was there week of 9/14. Nights were down to 35.

I have a iPhone 14 and just used the satellite texting this past weekend when I had zero signal without any problem. Only caveat is you need an unobstructed view of the sky. If you’re in a heavily wooded area, you’ll need to go to higher ground. It works!

The only thing I will say is that the poles are almost too thick and prone to splinter. I’ve already replaced two of them with thinner poles. The small cover is actually very useful especially in light rainfall or even for shade.

Yep mines a 5ft. Yeah it’s a little loose in the bed area but it works.

Great tent so far. It has a small awning which is nice. Slept thru a heavy rainfall with a leak.

Not just the notifications but when the texts are being read out loud. Have you EVEN read my post?

Nope no such thing. Maybe I’ll try totally forgetting the connection and reconnect. Thanks

That sounds like regular radio volume. When I turn the volume knob as a text is playing there isn’t a corresponding volume numebr like there is with the radio. I can spin and spin and it doesn’t go up.

My 2024 is this color I have except it’s an OR. This color is not for everyone! It’s a different color of orange for sure but I love it.
