I recently added a few new gizmos to my T100.

I recently purchased a Scangauge II to give me additional trip meters, digital gauges for battery voltage, coolant & air intake temps, etc. and a Scan tool. Just plug it into OBD II and it displays any readings you chose. Pretty slick -





I also recently installed a RAM Laptop Mount in the truck. This allows me to use my laptop on the road with mapping software for navigation, Wi-Fi access, downloading photos, watching DVD's and a pdf of the Factory Service manual complete with OBD codes in conjunction with the Scangauge.

The base bolts to the two passenger side seat bolts, no drilling required. They don't make one for the T100 (of course....) but measurements showed that their model for the Toyota Sienna would fit the T100 as well. Their triple swing arm and tele-scoping pole, allows the mount to be used by passenger or driver at various angles and heights making it very versatile and unobtrusive for the passenger.

I also ordered a quick disconnect that will allow me to pull the telescoping pole and laptop tray off, leaving just the base. It's on backorder and not in the following pics. Oh and I got new set of Rancho 9K's but no other pics, they're just shocks.















Another great addition for this time of year is a shower. After a hot and dusty day on the trail it's nice to rinse of the funk and kick back with a coldie. I purchased a Zodi Extreme Shower kit for showering on the go. Fill it with water, (approx 2.5 gallons) and heat it on a camp stove or attach a bottle of propane to the base burner. A thermometer on the can displays the water temp so no scalding or too cold showers. Simply pump it once or twice to pressurize, (no batteries or power required) and rinse away the day. It came with it's own gear bag for storage as well. This is a great addition for your female or child passengers too.

And just a couple other things. I ordered from Cabelas this collapsable camp toilet chair. No in action pics because that would be gross. But it works great, folds up small and can double as an extra camp chair if necessary. Also from Cabelas I ordered a Porta Privy tent for private showers and bathroom use. No in action pics either because that would be even more gross.

And that's how I spent my tax return and birthday money this year. These tools/toys will enable me to enjoy my forays into the backcountry even more and they offer my passengers even more comfort and convenience during the all important camping season.
