    I don't mind, either. I'm not particular to any OS, either. I do like how some apps are interchangeable across platforms. Makes trip planning and route sharing with a group easier.

    Anyone that carries a chainsaw use a mount for it, or y'all just slide it in where it fits?

    I always just slide it in the bed somewhere. I've considered working out a mount for the wheel well so it would just be a simple reach over the bedside for it.

    Something like this meant for an ATV.

    Hello all
    I'm running out of space in my tool bag - What's everyone using to carry tools in while overlanding or just everyday use? I have a cap on the bed of the truck so I won't be getting a full width tool box for the bed, just something that can hold a full impact socket set, wrenches, etc (impact guns/power tools will be stored else where).

    Thanks!

    Go through all the tools you have and make sure it's just stuff that you need. A couple tool rolls can go a long way in keeping things organized and relatively compact.

    I've seen a few make a double clamp for the bar that attaches it to a Hi-Lift rail. Don't know if they drilled into the bar or clamped around it and the chain.

    Blue Ridge Overland only sells that black cover holding the case down, the case must be purchased separately. That stihl case shown is about $100.
