    Wonderful Day! Roe vs. Wade Overturned

    I am personally opposed to abortion, but I believe most things should be left to individuals to decide and, as difficult as it is with an issue this important, this is one of them. If I can conceive of a crazy situation where I would want my wife to abort a fetus, then I don't want some...

    I hate Craigslist Lowballers...

    This is the most common vehicle scam I've seen recently.

    Mount Rushmore Trip

    We really enjoyed staying and hiking around Devil's Tower when we travelled through that area. Of course, it is required to watch "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" in preparation for such a visit.

    Trailer coupler rebuild

    My guess is no difference if they are classed pins. Bolts are probably better if they were just Harbor Freight pins.

    Trailer coupler rebuild

    Mine had one bolt and one pin in when I got it. I replaced with grade 8 bolts. It definitely pinches it when tightened down - doesn't move at all.

    I love it when people come up with a dream and just make it happen - That is a creative genius there!

    I just opened a Roth IRA, and am ready to invest in the stock market

    I agree. I have some investments in plans similar to this, but I wouldn't trust anyone that says you can make 4x as much as a traditional investment. There are good reasons to use an indexed fund, whether life insurance based or not. There are yet other reasons to use a fund that has a floor...

    Coronavirus

    Between drivers license records/points, federal background checks, and credit scores being used for everything in addition to actually applying for credit, we are halfway there. I'm not saying go the rest of the way, I just don't know how you put that cat back in the box it came out of. It...

    Talk to me about big adventure bikes.

    One thing I couldn't get over about the VStrom is the low seat. I get that is an advantage for some, but it was way too cramped for my long legs. I've never ridden the 1050 Suzuki.

    Lighten the mood

    Me too. Pretty much every time I shoot the .357. It readily shows you when you are flinching.

    Which 40 is good these days?

    Actually, I think those are Michelin XL. You are right that they are a pretty heavy tire. They work really well on a unimog, although they don't wear great with those big blocks. I'd guess that size in the photo is likely 12.5R20, which are about 39".

    Dodge Power Wagon build (x2)

    I don't see how you could successfully hone that. It might bore out. Check out what the specs are for the current sleeves and oversized pistons before trying.

    Cordless Electric Lawnmowers

    I was at the national farm machinery show a couple of weeks ago. Pretty much every major manufacturer has a commercial electric zero turn mower out. They are definitely impressive and carry a 30-50k price tag. Many have 2-6 batteries in lift out suitcase-style packages. I think the technology...

    Cordless Electric Lawnmowers

    I did some research on this on the solar forums today and the consensus from the experts is that storage below freezing is ok (in fact, might make the battery last longer), but any charging of any kind below freezing will cause irreversible damage to a lithium battery.

    Cordless Electric Lawnmowers

    I know you can't charge them below freezing, but is there a problem storing them in freezing weather? Asking mainly from the standpoint of my battery snowblower.

    General Tech What did you work on Today?

    Worth saying that many of these TVs that have HD support need to be configured to do HD at decent refresh rates instead of the standard TV refresh rates. There are special settings in my Sony that support this.

    Any Mtn Bikers on RME?

    Yep, unfortunately. Some systems live with it fine and others lose their prime if upside-down for a time. My solution has been to bleed them and hang one bike right-side up.

    General Tech What did you work on Today?

    I tried the 42/43 single monitor for a while and didn't like it. I've gone to two 28's.
