    8 inch GPS tablet found, cheap and fast.

    I didn't actually mount it on the dashboard or windshield, I just showed an example of what it would look like for me. For tall people, there will be no obstruction to the view at all. For smaller people, even the steering wheel would be in the way. Depends on the car. Depends on the person...

    8 inch GPS tablet found, cheap and fast.

    You can easily set it higher if necessary. Simply slide the tablet upwards, as the large rectangular metal plate (or pair of plates) on the back allows you to do so. Or by mounting the magnetic holder higher. Or in a different location altogether. What I showed at the beginning was good in a...

    8 inch GPS tablet found, cheap and fast.

    >The link is broken, do you have name or the Amazon link? Alldocube iPlay 50 Mini, Android 13, Widevine L1, 4 GB RAM, 64 GB ROM, Tiger T606, 8,4" There is also a PRO version of it but I don't think it's a good idea to pay extra for it.

    8 inch GPS tablet found, cheap and fast.

    I almost turned my old Dodge Grand Caravan into a Tesla, yup :) I used to magnetically attach my work iPhone for navigation, but the screen was too small for my imperfect vision. Long could not find a good small-sized tablet with GPS, but finally found this one...

    Electric van

    Google https://www.google.com/search?q=jdm+camper (Japan Domestic Market) They are cheap and made well. The only problem is that they have the steering wheel on the wrong side but it will take just a couple of days to get used to that.

    Conversion of noise-isolating headphones for comfortable sleep.

    Also, I highly recommend Smart AudioBook Player https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ak.alizandro.smartaudiobookplayer&hl=en_IN because with it, listening to audiobooks while falling asleep and then resuming listening is very easy. You can set the interval for example 20 minutes, if the...

    Conversion of noise-isolating headphones for comfortable sleep.

    By the way, a travel pillow like this one can be used for sleeping on your side with headphones. Simply insert the headphones into its opening and place this pillow on top of a thin regular pillow.

    Conversion of noise-isolating headphones for comfortable sleep.

    I tried all these things and they are useless at blocking noise. If I sleep in the rest area not far from trucks, then I need some earmuffs that really well block all external noises. For me, these ones work very well -...

    Conversion of noise-isolating headphones for comfortable sleep.

    Happy are those who fall asleep easily and sleep well despite any noise. Unfortunately, I am not one of those people. That's why noise isolating headphones really help me, plus I often fall asleep listening to something soothing and soporific, for example...

    Conversion of noise-isolating headphones for comfortable sleep.

    I usually sleep on my side and I hate noise, except for sounds specifically designed for sleep. Usually when I sleep in the car in a noisy place I wear noise isolating headphones, sometimes simple construction headphones, sometimes bluetooth headphones like this MPOW-102. The main problem with...

    Fully electric battery powered vehicles, cars, vans, trucks

    I'm not going to buy a car directly from China, let them start selling in America/Canada first and provide a warranty. However, this is a glimpse into our near future, sooner or later they will export at least some of their electric models. Imagine city life in such a commercial van, no charging...

    Fully electric battery powered vehicles, cars, vans, trucks

    I see lots of electric battery-powered vehicles from China on YouTube, including commercial vans and even trucks. Unfortunately, more reviews in Russian than in English, because now Russia and several other former Soviet republics are rapidly switching from western car brands to China-made cars...

    God Help Me!!!

    Yes, it looks like someone stuck inside without rain guards, the same thing happened to me on my first trip, so I bought these - https://www.weathertech.ca/en/dodge/2016/grand-caravan/side-window-deflectors/ - and am happy to this day. They just slide into the window, that's how:

    How soon will electric or hybrid vans/RVs be common?

    The Voyah Dreamer is an all-electric and plug-in hybrid minivan produced by Voyah, which launched on the Chinese car market in March 2022. The Denza D9 is an all-electric and plug-in hybrid minivan produced by Denza, which launched on the Chinese car market in May 2022. The impression is...

    How soon will electric or hybrid vans/RVs be common?

    Saw how that worked in Soviet Union. They will all become of low quality in the absence of competition.

    How soon will electric or hybrid vans/RVs be common?

    Some countries like Russia and Canada are clearly underpopulated, some like India and China are overpopulated, although even within China there are some underpopulated regions. Each country should decide what is the best for them.
