I am embarrassed to say there is an IU doctorate degree next to my Purdue Master's degree :lol:. At least her undergrad is from Purdue.

 

Daughter #1 is at Purdue. My truck handles the trip well. Edited by sixathome

Daughter #1 is at Purdue right now, freshman.

 

 

Cool what is she going for? Purdue got a bunch of my $$$ too. Went from 1998 to 2010 for 2 degrees in engineering. The second one took longer as it was part time and I took an occasional semester off while working full time.

Speech language pathology.

 

 

Thats cool. Anything healthcare related is usually a good bet nowadays. My wife is constantly contacted about job openings and such for PT. Its crazy but she is happy where she is at. Its good to be in demand.

I haven't. If I ever need a doctor or a lawyer I'm calling you. After all, you did...oh nevermind. :rolleyes:

 

 

I'm probably the last person in the world you should take medical or legal advice from. :lol: But since you asked- eat two cheeseburgers before bed and rob a gas station in the morning. :lol:

 

Not sure I could handle two cheesburgers at about eleven AM, but I'll give it a shot Doc. As for the gas station, I'm hoping to be worth about a half a billion dollars (before taxes, of course) in a little over an hour, so I may skip this one. If I don't win, should I take the fifty bucks from the register or the eighty bucks worth of premium from the pump?

In Salina, KS is a place called the Cozy Inn. They have little burgers like Whitecastle, and claim to be where Whitecastle got the idea. They're an old 6 stool diner, same grill for 50 years. Now I'm hungry and need a delicious stinky little burger, or 20.

Lottery didn't work out, Tried the burger thing but the fast food joints are all still on the breakfast menus for a couple of hours. Danny, are the six stools the number in the diner or the number you get from eating off of a fifty year old grill? :dunno:

Hahaha they taste too good to worry about that. Learned from experience that they aren't good to eat before a camping trip though. :lol:

 

Did some light research today, I've decided on Hella FF75 driving and fog lights. Might as well have a matching set. :)

      seat base height *lowering* (base 40/20/40 seat, 2026 1500 WT std cab)

      By bwiese · Posted

      Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose

      I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Dave's Auto (custom engine builder) tear down of L8T

      By No F-bdy Bs · Posted

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
