    Truck Wifi to House Wifi

    "You can also go in to the wireless settings and connect to a near by wifi (home wifi)" That is exactly what I'm asking how to do. I was thinking it would be used for software updates, and other than that I'm unsure but I do have a couple of android wifi tablets, there is probably something...

    Truck Wifi to House Wifi

    My Bighorn has a wifi hotspot for my devices to connect to for this trial period after my new purchase, but I seem to recall reading somewhere that the truck can also be logged into my home wifi. Admittedly I've not exhausted 'playing around' with the infotainment center yet but I was hoping...

    How to TRY and prevent our trucks from being stolen

    A Wheel and Tire for a Five Tire Rotation

    Thanks Dave, Yes, that is the standard four tire rotation for radial tires and what I intend to use if I go that way. My Bighorn has the Backcountry package which means it has the six lug, five spoke, black painted aluminum alloy wheels. It would be extremely unlikely that wheel is the spare...

    A Wheel and Tire for a Five Tire Rotation

    I'm new to hunting wheels/tires. I've always put new tires on the wheels I was given and pretty much ignored regular rotations. I have a new Bighorn Backcountry (18" rims) on order and I am thinking about changing my indolent ways and doing a five tire rotation on this brand new truck. What...
