Had to cut this

When I sold my 2000 I had a similar binder. Handed t over to the guy and he was pretty shocked. My wife thinks I am nuts. Told her its for records and show what has been done

I have a file folder in a holder on a shelf, but I never thought of a binder. I like that idea, have to switch to that.

Radios connect to the internet now? WTF ...

Through a phone. Although my Honda can connect to a Wi-Fi signal as can some other brands. Says you can download apps but there is no app store on it so I'm confused....

Ahh, gotcha. I still run a flip-phone, so this is all foreign to me. I have no need or desire for any of it. Got enough monthly bills here ...

Got a manilla folder for every vehicle I own, including motorcycles, dirt bikes, and the ATV.

 

The car ones are at the bottom. You can see my '74 RD350 folder labeled on the left - it's thick because I did a frame-up restoration on it.

 

The 2 super-thick & worn out ones in the middle are the '89 S10 Blazer I just sold, and my '07 Silverado. Sad how the '07 is one of the thickest ones there .. and it's the newest vehicle I own, with the least miles. Hmmmm ...

 

Next to the Silverado all the way to the right is the file for our '86 Grand Marquis - owned for 13 years, 3 decades old, with 4x the miles on it, and the folder is HALF as thick. Goes to show ya something there ...

 

On top all the way to the left (next to filing cabinet) is the folder for our '93 Volvo 940, also extremely thin. Needed a bit of work to get it road-worthy too. The folder next to that is for equipment I repaired, but don't own, so it doesn't count.

 

File thickness tells the tale ...

This looks like my setup,but only one folder and crammed in a file drawer. I'm picking up a binder and some sleeves today at the wally world.

I wonder how long what was my Tahoe will go before whoever bought it from the dealer realizes it needs premium....

Put a new bumper and some anti-tailgater lights on the Jeep yesterday.

We got that here too. Didn't last very long though.

All day.

Strange - it's like CA and MA swapped weather! We hit 51° today. I was in a tee-shirt! Saying close to 60 tomorrow. No snow - I'll take it!

 

You guys are getting hammered out there. Right from a drought, into a flood.

El Niño bones us pretty hard. Makes going in and out of my gate a pain in the ass.

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
