Shared: dual-battery.md, one dual-battery pattern for all three (the 4Runner's), monitored by misra; shore-and-heat.md, solar, shore power and block heaters everywhere, the heaters and chargers scheduled by ASP within the garage circuit's limit; rf-df.md, one direction-finding kit and a display to suit each rig; engine-can.md, sensors on our own CAN bus and ASP suggesting what to try next.

Where this may lead: a Baja race rig. The same stack (CAN sensors, a NixOS logger, GPS, misra cross-checks, ASP for the next change, episodes) is a race-data system; racing adds suspension travel and shock temperatures, faster logging and harder mounting.
