Post Truck in the City

City truck, I moved to Cincinnati from Kokomo Indiana. My red F150 is rare in the city. I am not much of a auto mechanic but, I self installed a Sirus radio in my wifes PT Cruser. I installed a Garage door opener in a basement garage. It required running the chain through an I beam and resetting the door track. The truck is too tall, but the PT fits fine.

I plan to install portable GPS navigation in my truck. I want blue tooth hands free cell and a rear camera to help backing up to my boat trailer.

I travel to rural areas and frequently get dropped signals. A cell phone amplifyer can strech a tower sitnal up to 50 miles. I want the amplifyer to be removable so I can also use it at my cabin in Northern Indiana.

A roof mounted GPS antenna and Cell antenna improve performance. a couple of holes in the roof are required. A third antenna on the Cabin completes the project.
