Having recently hit the road, we're becoming increasingly dependent on the GPS unit to guide us on where we want to go and I'm becoming more suspicious that they appear to know as little about how to get where we want to go that I do. We have 2 GPS units - one in the Mazda BT50 that has received a fair bit of bad...

I have a new triton and have been considering buying a good nudge bar. I have been told by a couple of installers that they are a waste of time to protect the front end of the car from roo damage.
