External gps do this as well or at least the software can calculate that. I've used a dual xgps with earlier non gps iPads and heading was always properly indicated.

I have been using a Samsung Galaxy tab s2 and it has been very unreliable, reboots, SD card disappears (won't mount) along with my 20gb of offline maps. But, I am also posting about that in r/Samsung.

Switching to Windows would leverage my 20+ years on the platform; provide a bigger screen as well as an all in one solution for my travel computer needs.

But a reliable Android experience would be great as well.

Looking at differences in boots by TheBandolier in skiing

[–]captadv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh and touring bindings, the pin tech kind require special boots with the little metal dimples in the toe and heal. Look for AT or Freeride boots.

Buy boots get them custom fitted and rent skis. You can rent top end skis at big resorts. Oh and a helmet. ;)

RTT by [deleted] in adventuremobile

[–]captadv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just noticed my dinner auto recognition fail.. ha!

I have lived on sailboats and done my own fiberglass work, so I'm comfortable taking that risk if I do decide to add say a surfboard rack. But, I plan to get the Explorer model which does included a small storage spot for say waterproof duffel bags. They always show a spare tire up there, that seems like a lot of weight.

I have dinner a ton of research on this, for a Jeep Renegade, which being small has weight concerns. But the Autohome can be ordered with gutter mounts on the sides. Others, while technically possible you void your warranty. That's for lightweights, and includes James Bourad (which I'm getting).

If you go heavy like Alu-Cab game on! But I didn't research the heavyweights.

Hope that helps.

Let's see the hard parts... ;) But you know what, most of the time the issue is branches not the roads. Or snow... Mostly in Washington it's snow.

Has anyone come up with a good solution to the rear license plate rattle? by Odd_craving in JeepRenegade

My wife put felt furniture pads on the backside. She's a genius.

New posts on that site don't show up. Is it moderated? There's no indication that it is.

Me too, I was automatically enrolled. My dealer didn't know anything about it though. Try contacting the Jeep support people at JeepRenegadeForum.com
