LOL! No typing and driving. In fact it does really tick me off when I see people texting and driving. I just use this set up when I'm stationary. And that does not mean when I'm waiting for a traffic light! Normally this is holding my iPad so I can use navigation apps other than what is on the built-in navigation screen. (The Mac is stored away while driving.) Google Maps, inRoute, Earthmate. (The Mac is stored away while driving.) I have my iPad set up to respond to "Hey, Siri". I have my iPhone setup to work with the Siri Hands Free function on the steering wheel. Music, navigation directions, podcasts are driven by my iPad with is designated as the BT music device but is also connected to the USB outlet. My iPhone is designated as the BT phone device. For charging on long trips I put a Mophie wireless charger case on it and slip it into that wireless charging "dock" built into the dash on the 2016. When I want to change the music, ask if I have new emails/messages or just ask for information from Siri I use "Hey, Siri" and my iPad responds over the sound system. When I want to make a call I use Siri Hands Free to do the call over my iPhone (which does not have "Hey Siri" enabled.)

Lots of info to explain that I don't text and drive - at least not with my fingers.

Right on. When I see minivans and SUVs full of kids and the driver is texting and driving I lose my mind (more than usual at least). It's a very common occurrence here.

Since we are sharing some pics not associated with tires or performance-enhancing mods I thought I would share this. I have a RAM floor mount for my iPad as I use it more for navigation than the Nav system. When stopped for lunch or working "virtual office" from the LC I remove the iPad mount and install this DIY platform to use as a simple yet convenient table. This pic is from somewhere in the middle of NE California on my way from Klamath Falls to Tahoe. I had to handle a conference call so I pulled of the road in the middle of nowhere (good Verizon coverage, though), put my BT keyboard in my lap, used my iPad as a (Verizon cellular) hotspot and I was good to do. Anyway, if you have a RAM mount or something similar you may want to try making a simple tray/table like this. It is also convenient when I am working with my camera gear in the car.

Realized that other shot was blurry... Here's a much clearer pano...

**Click on it, and you'll get a much larger version... (if the lines are a bit wonky, it's just the pano stitching a bit off...

Where do you buy your Velcro panels with the elasticized pouches?

Where do you buy your Velcro panels with the elasticized pouches?

5.11 sells those. They fit literally PERFECTLY--almost as if custom width, as two, side-by-side actually touch edges between handle and outer unit, but no overlap. Also...if you remove the stitches between the two elastic straps...it becomes one big strap (see large flashlight on far left where I did this.

Total of 8 on the drawers, plus another on far left. They are $5.99 each.

 

[Dan Higgins]

I use these, too. BTW, 5.11 Tactical also has some decent Molle gear if you have one of those seat back panels.

My TRD Kevlar center cap emblems finally arrived from Thailand. Finally "completes" the wheels. Christine appreciated a good detail with another coat of wax yesterday while accompanied by my friend @landylover21 who also cleaned his Elsie.

Been away from the forum for ages, mostly outside the USA and away from the 200 but I still get out in it as much as possible. Two weekends ago at Padre Island National Seashore:

Last weekend at Lake Whitney State Park was fare less rustic than I've seen in years LOL:

Looks sharp. How much lift did you get with that setup and are you running wheel spacers? I wasn't sure you could even put 295s on the stock wheels.

Ouch! Sure hope that wasn't a hit and run.
