I just wanted to tell everyone about a concealed carry phone app I found yesterday. Its called CCW Concealed Carry 50 State made by Workman Consulting. It has a interactive map that when you put in your permit it will tell you which states have reciprocity. It also tells you some details on all states laws by just picking that state from the list and has links to the states AG, State police and state statutes about that states CC laws.It seems to update info pretty frequently. It would be a big help to anyone who travels out of state to help make sure they stay legal. They do charge but at $1.99 its definately worth it.

Are you talking about the website or an app? Those living in border cities will find the app really handy. In 4 clicks I can have that states laws right in front of me instead of having to navigate a website.

It's a website. And before I travel I memorize any special laws of states I visit. For the most part its simple- you just need to know off limits places, if its a must inform state and if the no gun signs have any weight. If memorization isn't your thing the site has all state laws summarized in PDF format so you can print it or email it to your phone. I also know the owner of the site regularly checks to make sure info is current. I don't know anything about the publisher of this app so who knows if they do the same.

They are pretty good about updates also. The last one was 6/03 and had about 10 updates. I looked at the Handgunlaw website and it does look pretty good. The app is just maybe a little handier way to check laws. People might forget laws or the paper they print out but not many can live without their phones.

 

Sounds like Illinois is finally getting a CC law on the books. Read it passed the house and senate and awaits governors signature. The article didn't have the bills details but its a good first step.

There have been 2 more updates to this app about law changes around the country including the new Illinois CC permit info. They really keep up with the changes and put out a quality app.

      Navigating senior years.

      Yesterday we brought home a 6yr  old Havanese dog from a nearby SPCA.  We've had her for 24 hours and we are delighted with how well she is adjusting to her new home.  It  was a huge decision to adopt a dog at this stage in our lives but we believe we made the right choice!   it was reported that her first 6 years were ones of neglect.  I think she's already realizing her life is going to get a whole lot better...  so is ours!

      Which 2027 engine will you choose?

      No doubt, I definitely agree with you. However, considering the 6.2 and 3.0 have been catastrophically failing with very little miles, I figured I would put trouble free. I’m at 18,4xx and still not a single issue.

      It’s never dry here but it gets hot. My 4 vehicles I keep at home drive an 18 mile loop. One 6 days a week. Two about 3 days each and one once a month. Only one goes on trips about 4 times a year 1000 to 2000 miles each time. One 26 years old gets driven once a month for 22 years. One 14 years old goes 6 days a week. The other two are recent at 2 and 4 years. All are performing normal no extra service other than that would be half of recommended or severe service in the maintenance manual. No extra water or steam out the exhaust or premature plug wear. I would consider an 18 mile loop would be enough. So apparently once a month at 18 miles for 22 years has kept the collector car running well. About 45 minutes a month.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By newdude · Posted

      It is working as designed.  NHT and non NHT trucks have the same exact transmission cooling setup.  NHT just gets a larger radiator.     The transmission cooler loop on these is as follows.     -Transmission out goes into an oil to water heat exchanger (item #1 in the first illustration below).  This exchanger has engine coolant opposite the transmission fluid and uses engine coolant to warm and then regulate the transmission fluid temperature when its in the operating window.   - From the cooler it goes to a thermal bypass valve (item #11 in the 2nd illustration below).  If the ATF has not reached the temp to open the bypass (194F), it loops back.   - When it reaches 194F, the thermostat opens and ATF then flows out to the oil to air auxiliary cooler (item #17 in the 2nd illustration) at the front of the truck.  From there it goes back to the transmission.     Your only fix would be to swap for the PPE thermal bypass delete block which will open the loop to the aux cooler all the time.  It will STILL run warm, probably 170-200F, but that's as low as you'll get it as its still flowing through the oil to water exchanger.
