  2. Major upgrade to 2023 7-speaker system on a budget

    About one hour home driving to the Milwaukee area from Manitoba I went to get off the freeway for gas and couldn't find my clutch pedal.

  11. Questions for Rugged Radios G1 Users

    I just finished installing this radio in my Bronco. A couple of things aren't clear from the users manual. 1. Can I enter a channel from the mic? When I type a number from the mic it shows up on the main screen but I can't figure out how to confirm it. 2. Can you program the presets P1 & P2...

  15. Goat Modes

    Disclaimer: I have a 7MT on order Am I the only person that thinks the GOAT dial is stupid? Is it really that hard to figure out 2wd, 4a, 4wd, 4l, front locker, etc.? I know it adjusts shift points as well but with the MT I’ll have complete control of that.
  16. No manual with mid-package

    I reserved a Black Diamond. Today I find out that there is no manual available with the mid-package.
