In this part of the world, studs are illegal except for an extremely limited exception in state law or for non-mn plated cars transiting through. And ironically, I've tried studless winter tires and winter tires that can be studded without the studs, and my favorites to date are the winter...

I still regret selling our 88 Cherokee... As others have pointed out, they aren't making them anymore, and trying to find one now that hasn't been hacked on, neglected, or completely beat up is darn near impossible, and definitely not at much of anything approaching a reasonable price. If it...

Had the plates stolen off my truck when parked in the street in front of my house. Aggravating... Had to file a police report so I had documents in case I got pulled over for no registration, then had to go get new plates which was around $50 bucks. No tolling by plate around here, so I at...

Curious what extinguishing system that is cost effective you envision would prevent accidental hydraulics fires. For reference, a fire extinguisher does not accomplish this. Reality is when it happens in either case, the truck is toast.

Ghost kitchens in this area are all operated out of existing brick and mortar locations. None that I am aware of are commissary style. Being blunt though, this is suburbia, and not downtown urban. Their intent at the time was to drive more sales out of the existing kitchens that had lost...

A ghost kitchen is a restaurant operating out of another restaurants kitchen that offers food for sale online, typically delivered via a food service delivery. There are examples locally operating out of TGI Friday's, Dennys, Buffalo Wild Wings, Perkins, etc... As an example, the ones out of...

Blue Collar Combo... Hamms and a bump of Blackberry Brandy straight up. There are days with simple pleasures...

If dumped on the Road Right of Way, it becomes the responsibility of the maintenance organization (Township/City/County/State etc...). The agency I work for has a budget you'd choke on the number to get rid of all the stuff dumped in the ROW. If on your property, you are it. Previous employer...

Same story here - more dense, populated area and our delivery charge is relatively low. Our cabin property in the north woods has a very high delivery charge - but the area is significantly less dense, meaning the costs of the delivery system are spread out over far less customers. (For...

During operation or when lit you should not smell any gas. If you are, something isn't right and needs to be fixed. If its a ventless unit, make sure you have a CO detector and use it. Owners manuals appear to be readily available on the web by searching the model #.

As mentioned, many Ford applications switched to the electrically controlled clutches in the Mid-2000's. Superduties, F150's, Explorers to name a few. Kind of the first step in the evolution to all electrical, non- engine driven fans in some of those platforms. Semi Trucks often use air driven...

For reference, so do conventional snowplows. A former employer lost a $250 k (in 2010 dollars) snowplow due to a broken hydraulic hose and hot exhaust... Advantage: Neither.

They are garbage - expect a lifespan of 2 years, maybe 3. Anything beyond that, good luck.

The other thing to watch out for in your proposed change is going from an LT tire (Load Range E in that size) to a P Series tire. The load rating on the P-series is lower and has to be further derated. Depending on the configuration of your truck, you may actually need the load range E tires to...

Ohio won't sell your personal data unless authorized under state law. They can still share car registrations including VIN and plate # with the county of your residence and 5 digit zip code. Big data makes it easy to connect the dots between a VIN, which you did give your insurer, and a...

This study from NHTSA on a 2017 3.5 Ecoboost may be of interest to you. Check out the histogram on page 42 included below. PFI dominates to absolute engine load below 40%, then DI takes over, with a maximum of 70 to 80% of the fuel coming from direct injection, and then leaning more on PFI, with...

Another mapping source for antennas is cellmapper.net. Particularly useful if others have already mapped your area for your carrier (it is crowdsourced info). Use the 4G level to find local antennas. As others have stated, the issue we've seen is that this type of service feels even more...

Are we serious? Things like the ARPANET (you know, the predecessor to todays internet that allows you to even participate on this board), GPS, modern Hydrofracking (which unlocked enormous reserves of petroleum and gas) quickly come to mind off hand that had their start as government projects...

I'd use the non-top tier BP fuel without much reservation. That being said, their stations here are all franchise locations, meaning its like a box of chocolates - some may be nice, some meh, and some terrible. These days, most are already on their way to the terrible status around here. Run...

Some interesting takes in this thread... Could do without all the personal battles and arguing about qualifications, but whatever. The lines that got me we along the lines of "nobody" does the speed limit. Interestingly, my employer collects that data for the state I reside in, and it shows...
