Long story short, I've acquired a Panasonic Toughbook CF-30 and mounting stand as my work has been updating equipment. While this is a old model from this line, in the pile scheduled to be auctioned off I spotted one that was in brand new condition. Coupled with a Verizon MIFI I basically have mobile internet anywhere there is service. The cool thing about the Toughbooks is every single part is replaceable. The vehicle stand did come out of a pile that was purchased as a giant lot from another entity. So its a bit rough, but nothing a good scrubbing with purple power, some sandpaper, and fresh paint can't fix to make it look new.

- Anyone else configured a laptop station inside their ranger yet?

- Should I disassemble the shell on the toughbook and paint it to match my Ranger? :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:

Going to utilize existing mounting points from passenger seat, not looking to drill into my Ranger.

Not quite same floor mount, but to give you an idea:

Apparently custom painting Toughbooks isn't a new idea... haha
