    Yea I love my CB location, go for it! I'll try to get some pics up. I don't have a TechDeck tho, @JLink does and has a tablet mount with it along with some other ram mounts.. he'll never spill his beer :cool:

    I actually just made it home tonight. I got into the mountains Sunday, explored Monday, hunkered down for the storm Tuesday, and made my escape today. It was gnarly to say the least. The winch and treds got a lot of use throughout the trip and I have found confidence in my shelter through extreme conditions. I'll try to get pics up when I can. I still have a Virginia trip from the week before to upload. And the wife and I are going to Assateague Island Friday.

    @Lots2Learn58 does this look like fun to you??

    @Lots2Learn58 and I were thinking of going to Assateague, but that $160 fishing license is scaring us off from beach driving/camping. Let us know how it is! we are fairly close to that beach

    I mounted my CB like yours, but it blocks the cup holders now. I think I need to move it to the other side. AKA cut more holes in my center console

    I set mine back just enough to still use the cup holders.

    I saw your pic in your build. As long as you like it there that's all that matters, I wouldn't care what other people think. I like mine in that location and it worked perfectly there for 3 years.

    They are bronze. They are actually the first bronze @SCSPerformance had, think the new bronze is darker.
