Project Farm did a comparison of the Harbor Freight Daytona Jack and the Arcan Jack. The Daytona Jack is every bit as good as the Arcan and is the #1 recommended jack. Build quality and parts are the same as the Snap on Jack which is built in the same factory on the same production line, with different stickers.

I’m not sure you’re asking the right question... the average number of miles per day matters less than the *maximum* number of miles one needs (or wants) to be able to drive. For example: I drove from Minneapolis to Lincoln this past weekend... 400 miles or so. That pushes the boundaries of most EVs. The limited… Read more
Yeah, we can’t have anyone calling out a scam artist, con-man, and his followers’ undying love for the man and his cons, because that’s “being a contrarian”. Read more
“How’s your extensive survey of EV charging coming along?” Read more
I certainly had that problem at the last hotel I stayed in. There’s 2 chargers but only one parking spot (unless you park in the handicapped space), and it kept getting filled by various Jeep Wrangler 4xE hybrids that probably only take an hour to charge but would leave themselves plugged in overnight, so I would snag… Read more
I love EVs and I do think we should work on building up the charging infrastructure to enable a full transition to them, but I do think PHEVs are the way to go for pretty much everyone in the immediate future.
A significant cause of pedestrian deaths is a driver yielding their right of way to a j-walker, and the driver behind them wondering why this bozo randomly stopped (because there’s no marked crosswalk) and swerving around them at full speed. Depending on the state, the stopped driver may have liability exposure. Read more
Can you just use your right of way? Read more
As a SCM for 12 years you’re not wrong...
Exactly this. The Yukon Denali is for people with money who don’t want to tell you about while the Cadillac is for the people who want to tell you how much money they have. I’ve gotten a few people to look up the MSRP when I tell them the F250 King Ranch with extended bed in my neighbor’s driveway is probably the most… Read more
The maintenance aspect of home ownership is definitely a bummer. I’ve even accepted “I don’t want this job” quotes, and contractors STILL won’t come out.
If you look closely, there was a pelican on the grassy knoll.
Pretty sure that’s a Lambo, dude.
I don’t care about range. heck, my Spitfire can barely do 200 miles on a tank of gas. But I can fill it up in less than 5 minutes and do it again and again, literally anywhere in the country without worrying about whether there will be a charger where I am going, that the charger will work, that I have the right… Read more
Maybe they know “Toyota promises affordable 300-mile EV” won’t click as well as “Toyota promises 900-mile EV.” So in a way, we have to thank them. Read more
Toyota is just subtly letting us know they have a lot of shit in the works that they just don’t want getting out.
The hikes are meant to discourage borrowing. Read more
The credit system is a pretty good indicator of “do you pay back your debts, or not.” As a consumer asking to borrow money from businesses that are not charities, those businesses like to know if you suck with money. It’s not really an unknowable issue.
There’s nothing capricious or inscrutable about our credit system. I can explain it to you in 3 sentences. Based on your history of good payment, you are issued a credit score. A high score means you are responsible and pay back your loans. A low score means the opposite. If you have a low credit score, you have to… Read more
The ugliest from America is yet to come. WTF is this ?
