I daily drive a truck and when it was down for an extended time, I got a rental truck. I was explicitly told, though that I was not allowed to use it as a truck. For example, it had a class three receiver hitch. I was not allowed to use it to pull a trailer or to put loads in the bed. So, I agree that rental trucks…

Do it!  I have wanted one for several years now. My kids are approaching the agar where they can ride with me and I think it would be a blast!  I fully plan on daily riding it, even in the winter months. 

Well, I do have a class A CDL so I’ve driven an 18 wheeler with a grain trailer helping a friend at harvest a few years ago. That’s the largest rubber tired vehicle I’ve driven. But, I we can count steel wheels, I have operate a 14000’, 25,000 ton train. So, that probably wins. 

I have. I was driving west on I-70 in the very early AM between Topeka and Lawrence, KS. This section of I-70 is the Kansas Turnpike and the east and west lanes are separated by a concrete barrier. With hardly any other traffic, I encountered a C3 Corvette driving east in the west bound lanes.  I immediately called…

*Takes electric F-150 into dealer because of problem

Unfortunately, not in my state. In my state, a vehicle with a lien against it, the title is held electronically by the state. The seller would have to pay off the loan, get a lien release from the lender, apply for a clear title from the state and then I could purchase the vehicle. So, in most instances, we have a…

I was. Subscribed a year ago at their promotional rate of $25 a year. It was a bit buggy a few times, but overall, it worked pretty well  watched both on a tablet (iOS) and on a current model AppleTV.  I let my subscription go when my year was up as I thought $50 was too high for a year as I have the other big 3…

The Venture Bros is also my jam!  Been watching since day 1!  Hands down, the best animated show around. 

Had to go pretty deep for this reference. Too bad it’s not painted metallic mint green. 

Well done, good sir or madam.  I did indeed guffaw audibly.  

Different services have different terms for basically the same thing.  YT calls theirs “channels”.  Twitter calls it a “feed”.  I really don’t know what if anything Facebook other than users have accounts and I follow “friends”.  I’m sure others like Snap Chat and Instagram have their own terms as well. 

Project Binky is the greastest series!  Not only are Nik and Richard talented builders, but they also create very enjoyable videos. I have bought some of their swag including my very own Ralph the Wonder Llama and happen to Ben currently wearing new my Project Binky t shirt. 

YouTube is made of of thousands of different creators. They make videos and post them to the platform. Each creators’ list of videos is their personal channel. If you, as a viewer, like that creators content, you can subscribe to their channel and be alerted to when they create new content and post it.  If you posted…

Good for her!  I wish her a long and successful racing career!

ECP brakes would not have prevented Lac Magantic. There were many contributing factors that when combined, created a perfect storm. One man crews, failure to properly secure unattended equipment, lax training and testing and failure to maintain equipment to a safe operating standard. For a broader use, ECP brakes…

My first thought as well!

I have that bumper sticker!

Well, I didn’t buy an Audi. I bought an ‘09 Jetta TDi. And, yes. I did buy my manual new. Still daily driving it today. 

My wife’s Oddyssey is affected as well. We also have not taken it in to do the fix as we also don’t like our local dealer. I don’t even care for the next closest one, either. It sure does seem like this van (which she purchased new) has had more than its share of recalls. Seems like a new one comes in the mail every…
