This is from a failed attempt at the summit of Harris Mountain, I couldn't get up the trail in the background... its steeper than it looks.

Posted (edited)

Rides include my SL550 AMG (w/8k miles), the wife's CLS 550 (30k miles), my HD CVO 110 cu in 105th Annv. Road King (16k miles), our all original '88 560SL (155k miles) all of which are kept in Texas, Then the '14 Denali (7k miles) and a '05 Land Rover LR3 HSE (110k miles) which we use at our home in Alaska.

 

And, while I don't today, the last photo is one on my bucket list of cars I'd like to own (the 2002 Corniche Convertible).

Some of my other rides, my SL550 AMG, the wife's CLS 550, my HD CVO 110 cu in 105th Annv. Road King and our all original vintage 1988 560SL with it's 155k miles, and latest stable addition the '14 Denali.

 

So what kind of drugs do you sell? Just kidding, nice selection, I love the bodies on the newer Mercedes but hate working on them.

Adrenalin! The best drug of all.

Beautiful Camaro! My parents bought a '79 Z28 exactly like that brand new right after they got married. They still have it today! Only difference I see is they went with the light blue interior...and manual windows.

 

Hopefully will be starting the restoration project soon on this!

I bought that car in 1981 for 5500.00 had 21k on it ... Has 65k on it now but I pulled the stock 350 2 bolt at 50k and sold it for 1200.00. I built a 350 4 bolt with 400 heads, roller rockers, Edlebrock intake and a .480 lift cam. It has Hooker headers, Flowmasters, dual exhaust and 4.11 posi.

 

The rest of the car is original. Has a real lopie idle and you can hear it coming. It's sitting in the garage for the winter.

Here is my main ride when the temps are above freezing. I use this mostly for commuting back and forth to work whenever I can, at 75 mpg its hard to pass up riding it. It is a lot of fun to ride

 

Honda NC700x

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
