- My family wants to off-road. Due to COVID, we'll avoid other people to our best ability. The boondocks where we'll be driving won't have lights, let alone on roads.
I've spoken to all the rental RV and car companies in the area. They confirmed they don't equip any of their cars with extra headlights. They advised that most people attach their own flashlights to their rentals for offroading.Presume that my flashlight got NO strap or appurtenance. How best to mount it temporarily to the rental car or RV? I don't know if we'll be renting a car or RV yet, and I don`t know which flashlight I'm buying.- It's blindingly obvious that I can't just place the flashlight on the car's dashboard and point it forward, because the front windshield will reflect most of the light back at and blind you!
