I have my hatch close over it. No issues so far but I haven't been on extremely dusty roads. Haven't seen an issue with water but I'll keep an eye out and report back if I see any intrusion.

I was concerned about placing the starlink in the sunroof due to it being close to my head. signals and what not frying my brain... =/ I'm using a magnetic mount on the roof and the cable duct taped and run through the hatch. Works well (haven't driven a very dirty road yet to see if dust...

I've got a short extension cord (6 inches) with a horizontal plug. Starlink works great with it. Obviously the Starlink shuts off when the car is off though.

FYI - My GROM unit continued to have major issues. It also continually drained and finally killed my battery. Flickering, grey screen, non-responsive, etc. The stereo shop has sent it back for a warranty replacement and I'm waiting... Major PITA.

How did you route the power cable inside?

Where?

@TeCKis300 I confirmed that the AHC drops at 66-67 mph (as shown on the speedometer). Even with my 275/65R18 tires, shouldn't it still drop at 62 mph per the speedometer? Trailer Update... We definitely didn't have the WDH tightened enough! It was practically NOT tightened. We had 4-5 threads...

Michelin Defender LTX M/S 2 285/65 R18 XL fits perfect on my 2013 LX. No rubbing, no modifications.

Ozarks this past week. The river floodplain camp was actually a private RV park but it was entirely 4-6 inch diameter river rock to get to that site.

I'm confused about the speed... My tires are around an inch greater diameter than stock - not much difference. So the vehicle moves faster than the speedometer shows but Google Maps is generally pretty close, maybe 1-2 mph. The AHC should be based on the speedometer, so shouldn't it lower when...

@TeCKis300 side question for you... You use your OBA to blow off dust, etc. Do you know if it'd be possible to use OBA to blow out an trailer's pex for winterizing? Everything I read says you need a traditional compressor... I'd like to have an OBA system that we could use to blow out the pex...

With the AHC off, the vehicle won't respond to the weight and lower? Do the struts and their static pressure hold the vehicle in position? I've tried Comfort and Sport. Doesn't have much effect other than the effect it normally has without a trainer, i.e. a bit less floaty and more sharp bounce...

Thanks for the information and advice. Pretty sure we were not tight enough. I also now understand that you should be measuring the drop in the height across all wheels once hooked up and tightened to confirm how weight is distributing. To confirm distribution is ideal and thus tightness is...

Thanks a lot, this is super helpful. We are at about 4-5 threads, so similar. However, I think the last two times I hitched up I hitched up in LOW AHC (which is what the manual states to do). This will raise the vehicle to neutral though, so I'm sure my chains were a bit loose. The AHC may also...
