Robert Evans’ Behind the Bastards podcast did a really good episode on the man that started police warrior training and just how terrible it is.

That 7 way connector can’t carry enough current to charge much of a battery bank. You’ll literally end up turning your 5th wheel into an articulated class A if you have to rely on your tow vehicle for electricity.

Onan already makes small Diesel generators that fit in the same packaging as their Gasoline/LPG offerings. I’d be willing to bet that the RV industry will just stop equipping fifth wheels with Propane systems. Replace the 30# tanks with a 30 gallon Diesel tank and switch the water heater to electric and LPG furnace…

Travel trailers and fifth wheels don’t have their own engine.  The point of owning a travel trailer is to have a vehicle to leave the campground with for groceries or off-campground activities.

Gooch, taint, grundle, orFleshy Fun Bridge. I knew it as “the gooch” before I knew it as the taint.

No shame in not knowing how.  But don’t sell yourself short.  Driving a manual isn’t rocket surgery.  Just takes some practice to get your hands and feet coordinated in their order of operations.  Also, in my experience, every make/model you drive with 3 pedals is a bit different.  So you’re going to have a mild…

I kinda wish I had internet remote start on my truck. It is no fun at all arriving at a vehicle that’s been sitting in airport parking all day when it’s 102 in the shade. Could get the cab cooling as soon as I’m wheels down.

I wasn’t going to get much better than the 3.5% APR my Credit Union offered on the Refi.  I took the dealer’s loan just so they’d give me the good deal on the truck then had my CU pay off Chase before I made the first payment.

Agree with you and the OP. I hate hard boiled eggs. And deviled eggs are just churched up hard boiled eggs. They’re like eating a fart. This coming from someone that loves every other way to prepare eggs.

PATS was also an option for many years.  I think my 2012 F150 was the first vehicle I owned that had it standard not NOT be some extra line-item on the window sticker with a pricetag.

Supermajority means 2/3s  The majority in the senate is by technicality (VP breaks all ties).  If Senate Filibuster rules were altered it’d be a different story.

Second you on the Century.  Those things could withstand a STAGGERING amount of abuse and neglect.

I agree, the styling just doesn’t seem that dated (at least the latest iteration).  I actually like the simplicity of their interiors.

I didn’t pay that much down on my F150 and I was never upside down during the loan. I got a stupid good price on it ($29k) so it didn’t depreciate like a lot of new vehicles do.

My F150 will be ten in February. The only repair I've had that wasn't paint/body was a front hub started making noise.  It was $600 to repair.  I am looking at a timing chain service, but I'm pretty intent on keeping the truck until the wheels fall off or some fuck nugget totals it.

No dice, especially with the A4LD (not 4R55E) automatic. They were trash to begin with and nobody can rebuild them to not be trash. That cologne V6 will outlast three of those transmissions easily.

Anything with brake pedal interlock on the gear shift won’t work without a functioning electrical system. My 1998 Crown Victoria wouldn’t release from Park unless it could tell your foot is on the brake pedal. You’re okay if it dies while in gear.  Put it in Park with no battery and you're going to have to dolly it.

You don’t have to tell me thrice that Avis blows goats.  I only use them because my employer says I can only rent from them.  If I had any say at all I’d go back to National without hesitation.  I’ve gotten a Chevy Traverse with no plate at all.  Mind you, my company is very well-known in the public safety market and…

Whenever someone parks in a manner that prevents me from leaving with my vehicle, I usually just find the number of the towing company that has the contract for the lot (usually a sign at each entrance). They’re all too happy to come right away.

I remind whomever is shotgun in my pickup of that.  1, I don’t want their stinky ass feet on my dashboard, and 2, I don’t want my insurance to have to shell out for their broken leg because they decided to literally put their foot in their own mouth.
