That HUD is neat. Cheap. I also think it could be calibrated to show my speed with larger tires!!!

I wouldn't mind the HUD if you could hook a GPS sensor to it so it could get the speed from that lol

I have to use my phone for that. My 33's give me a sliding scale and at 70 on the speedo I think I'm doing 76 in real life. But at 30 I'm doing about 31. It taxes my brain.

I have an extremely optimistic speedo in my 110, sitting in my drive right now it's doing 35mph....

Charile, do you go to SCARR?

Never been, but I think it is right down the road in Gilmer next year, so I plan to.

Edit: I checked. Yes, I WILL be there. April. Rover? Check. CB radio? Check. We'll behaved dog? My dog can stay home.

It's in Gilmer at Barnwell, I'll be there again this year. Maybe in the 110 most likely I'll be a stow away in the Lucky8 Rover.

Just need to do a bunch of basic work on the 110 and replace a transmission/transfer case. No problem lol
