I haven't used the spot. When I was shopping for a device to bring out in the field I did my research and wasn't impressed with spot. The reliability is questionable and there is a subscription cost to it. I ended up buying an ACR PLB (personal locating beacon) ResQLink. It is more expensive ($250) but there is no subscription and it uses the military homing beacons and military GPS for emergency rescue in the field. I had to register my device with the NOAA with emergency contact numbers, ect. This is the same device professionals use at sea, but it's the land version. Outdoor gear lab gave it the editors choice award for personal locating beacon. If you use it and are rescued, ACR will give you a new one free. Only downside? You can't send messages like the spot. If you are only worried about rescue in a life or death situation get the ResQLink http://m.rei.com/learn/expert-advice/personal-locator-beacons.html http://www.amazon.com/ACR-PLB-375-Personal-Locating-Beacon/dp/B005E1OU1A http://youtu.be/9C7UiFe_hRk

Case in point - my wife lost her dodge caravan key. I went to True Value to get a key made. They said it would be $250!!!?!! They said my wife's key is chipped so only that key can start the van. What a joke. Who is going to steal a 2006 caravan? Can't I just get a normal $2 key? Why does it need to be so complicated? And both rear window motors in my truck went out. $100 each to fix. Give me a crank and I'd be happy... I'm not that lazy

They did. In 1950. if I could snap my fingers and live in 1950, trust me I would.

Couldnt agree more with lark. Now I know why new trucks cost $50k - unnecessary gadgets that eventually break and need repair. I wish a auto company would make a pick up with a motor, carb, am/fm radio, no power windows, no power locks... No frills and sell it for $12,000 new. Something that you don't need an electrical engineering degree to fix. Something where there is room under the hood and not crap jammed in every inch of free space to the point you can't even stick your hand anywhere near the engine. I'm guessing this isn't a reality due to government regulations

I just ordered my 43 on Tuesday... Hopefully I have it in a few weeks

2006-2007 Classic Duramax LBZ -

i don't pay attention to scores. I hunt for venison

Thanks again!!!

Hey guys, I'm looking for a recommendation for a electrician in the EV that can install a interlock kit to backfeed my generator into my home in case of power outages. I also need a exterior inlet box installed at rear of house to plug genset into. Any recommendations? Any electricians on CWT? Thanks!

I built a AR on a PSA "blemished" stripped lower for my truck gun and couldn't be happier. $39 and I can't find the blemish. It's $39!!!! Total price for AR truck gun build: $435

I have only sold one thing - my Davis wall tent. Nighthawk was a great buyer

Thanks, I'm sure I could install the interlock switch no problem, it's moving brakers around in my panel and installing the 30amp receptacle at back of the house that is above my skills!

I have a shield in 9mm. I carry it EVERY day in a Alien Gear hybrid holster. I carry 124 gr Federal HST (the best defensive rounds in my opinion). I love my shield. I am ordering a Glock 43 next week. I'm not sure the Glock can replace my Shield but we will see. I have one of the models with the thumb safety. I prefer no safety but it wasn't an option when I bought mine.

I emailed him this morning. Just waiting for a response after the weekend

Stoves - either a jetboil or even better, an alcohol stove. If you use alcohol you need to know what you are doing. Test, test, test otherwise you get poor performance. You need a good pot stand and windscreen for great performance. I use a trangia burner, a mojo pot stand and a Olicamp windscreen. Filter - Sawyer mini Shelter - I use a kelty salida 2 tent but there is a sweet Hennesy hammock in the classifieds right now for sale. I also have a ENO single nest hammock I use Food - all I eat backpacking is mountain house and oatmeal for breakfast

Thanks nyazhunter!

Bump for the best hammock out there...

Thank you!

If she was "mother of the year" this kid wouldn't be running around on the street wearing a ski mask and setting cars on fire. He would be at home doing his homework. Just because she beats her kid's butt when he gets caught doing something wrong doesn't mean she knows anything about raising a child the right way.

Probably the first time she ever disciplined him.

How about instead of filming the pile up like a typical social media loving a$$hole, drive 1/2 up the road and worn the drivers on what's ahead. What is wrong with people?

I can't believe you guys are replying with serious answers to his questions. Too funny

+1 Reavis. I was there last spring. I love it there

Bump for a top notch AK. I have a SLR107CR which is the same rifle but with the integrated front sight gas block. Fair price

Mine was one of the recent sales on here (nov 2014). It sold pretty quickly. +1 davis tent.
