    Battery tender for FMTV

    Promariner, avoid NOCO.

    Air up to shorten start up time?

    Since there are times when you will want to be out of the weather, and test your vehicle, I have one of those heavy duty rubber exhaust hoses that you see at auto garages. I have experimented with turbine style fans for more pull. Did not find a fan necessary for general use. Works well.

    CTIS works somewhat for the 1st time

    I bypassed the pressure switch at the tank, and new sounds that I had never heard before occurred. Yay! It looked like only the front tires responded to the Sand command. Maybe a bad valve in the rear? I have heard of people turning up the pressure at the regulator to trigger the switch. Is...

    How to balance a Goodyear 395/85/20

    Apparently antifreeze works fine with CTIS. I will be trying 7 new MV/T's in the coming weeks.

    Turned away from camp grounds??

    Yeah, absolutely. I attended the Overland Expo at the Biltmore. Homebrews are always unique and interesting. Like Forrest's Fuso on Cheap RV Living. One on the best, inexpensive build that I have seen. Nice guy too.

    Turned away from camp grounds??

    We've been looking at this new concept for a couple of weeks now: https://www.boondockerswelcome.com/ Maybe something along these lines.

    Turned away from camp grounds??

    This was just a brainstorm. Something to stimulate the thoughts and bowels of those interested : ) The concept comes from the business World.

    Turned away from camp grounds??

    I'm not limiting it at all. It was just a brainstorm. I would be happy if it was in all states. Have to start somewhere. TN is known to be a MV friendly state.

    Turned away from camp grounds??

    Private campgrounds can do what they want and I respect that. I think there is a need for more diverse campgrounds. The RV world is changing. What is the fastest growing segment of the RV population? Millenials.

    Turned away from camp grounds??

    TV station PBS https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/national-guard-to-help-protect-california-towns-from-wildfires My point is this. People hate the military or any associated vehicles until there is an emergency. Then they love us. Whatever... California has an education problem, among other...

    These trucks were designed to go where no one else can. I say we do it.

    Yes, they are at home. I found them on the internet.

    I had a brainstorm. Maybe a group of individuals could start a MV /overlanding park in TN. Start a trend. Just a thought...

    Turned away from camp grounds??

    There is an important delineation between an RV'r and an Overlander, and it is really starting to show up now. True Overlanders love converted vehicles. They won't have an issue with a previous military vehicle. Camo color represents what? They need to think about that while they eat tofu and...

    Our CTIS system are not really compatible with 3.07 gears

    https://gov.goodyear.com/docs/military/military_tire_brochure.pdf Oops, I guess it was 100 psi. The 20 plys take 123 psi. Guess it only goes up to 81 psi on the CTIS. http://trucks5ton.tpub.com/TM-9-2320-392-10-1/TM-9-2320-392-10-10359.htm

    You are probably right. I will double check. When I get home I will get that Goodyear documentation that I found that mentioned the 120 psi.
