psst there are thousands of parts on a new tractor that you can replace without hooking them up to a computer. Most of stuff that’s linked to the software is tied to emissions regulations.

Well that and $150 will get you a passport. 

I’d proceed with caution on anything Dometic makes. Their fridges are a top 5 warranty item where I work. The thermostat likes to corrode and stop working. 

Well the reliability wasn’t really this issue with what I was doing, most of it was preventative in nature. As long as what I had to do didn’t require pulling the cab the downtime to completely rebuild a steering column on 7R, 8R or 9R in under an hour assuming parts are available. I pull the cowling off, replace the…

No they were like this.

Lots of armchair farm mechanics here that have probably never turned the key on a tractor talking out of their ass. I’ve torn apart steering columns and swapped out sensors and parts and dozens of John Deere tractors built in the last 5 years and fired them back up with no magic software required.

Your high school friend had a Ferrari? Damn you and I definitely hung out with different crowds.

My wife just wants to know if there will be any shirtless beach volleyball and she’s in.

If they sort out fast charging along with the battery life I think that would be the final hurdle to mass adoption. 

I think charging speed is probably the biggest turn off for most people like me who don’t live in a large urban area. If you can get it to 80% charge in 10 minutes or less I think you’ll see more adoption of EV’s in rural areas. It’s not all that unusual for me to take a 240 mile road trip on the weekend to head to a…

Personally I think it’s going to take more than one technology to replace the IC engines. Just like we have two common fuels now I think you’ll see that in the future with future propulsion systems. It’ll be a mix I think.

I’ve been getting those too. They come in spurts. I’ll get a couple one day then nothing for a few weeks. 

Yeah I don’t get it. For these limited production low mileage types of vehicles there should be some sort of exemption. 

An incompetent UAW worker? Well I never. 

As much as I hate the NRA how hilarious would it be for them to sponsor Haas. Go all in as the ‘murican team and get Dale Jr driving Grosjean’s car.

I did when I was 10. 

You’re right modern F1 cars look huge on tv but up close they look like they’re the size of a Ford Focus. 

They had a truck parked out by 3 the one time I went to a race there. 

The same thing happened to me from eating too many Torchys Tacos in the grass by the esses.
