Been using an iPad and a Samsung note for two years now and have come to the conclusion for the third time (one phone and a different tablet) that Android OS just isn't up to the job. The Samsung would loose GPS and freeze the map. I would turn on my iPad and it has connected every time from a cold start. When you are up in the mountains with no cell phone data service the GPS becomes critical for navigation. Software is a personal choice but I always keep my PDF maps up to date. Have never had to fall back on them but they are there.Re: Surge Protectors or not??I hear this but believe it is 90+% hype to sell a new gadget. The reason I say this is I have never heard a 1st person story about any RV Camp with reversed polarity, low voltage, etc. Does anyone have a 1st person story about "bad" electricity at a RV park? With the internet today I don't see how a RV park could stay in business if they had such issues.Re: Which truck would be better for my TTI see some of the towing speeds listed here and wonder if you are exceeding your TTs tire speed. Mine, original from the factory (2008) are 50mph tires. Consequently I don't go over 50mph and average 12 mpg... nrkRe: Which truck would be better for my TTI was in the 1/2 ton quandary. Owned a F150 with 30K on it and did not want to take a bath buying a new truck. Here is what it took to be safe IMHO. LT tires Class IV hitch HD Shocks 4.1 differential Firestone rear air bags. Anti-sway hitch Trailer brake controller That is $5K or so and I still have a 1/2 ton truck. $5K would have gone a long ways in purchasing a good used 3/4 ton truck already equiped with all the above.Re: Grease on the ball?My Reese set up is very noisy without grease. A dab on the ball and all the shiny spots where there is metal to metal contact. Now there is none of that snap-crackel-pop when leaving the RV park or in tight turns.
