Did anyone catch todays Pentagon Briefing?  Donald Rumsfeld talked about how Hussein is offering $25,000 (up from $10,000) to families if they can get their teenage children to strap explosives to themselves and blow innocent people up.  I didn't catch if he said Americans or just anyone, but what does it matter?  That is so F'd up!! :angry:  :angry:

 

One more reason that we shouldn't have stopped so soon during Operation Desert Storm!!  :angry:  :angry:

I say let's go get him right now.  We've always known he's a sicko, and anti-American, and it's been painfully obvious he is an ally to the terrorists who attack us.  Let's just blow the b@st@rd up and get it over with.   :angry:   Maybe we could strap exsplosives on him and send him to Osama.

He needs to get his big head out of his big arss and realize that everytime he opens his stupid mouth, he is stepping one pace closer to his grave.

 

I agree, we didn't finish the job in Desert Storm...  :D

I saw alink to the article on the front page of MSNBC.com when I was checking the stock reports.  I didn't get a chance to read about it yet, but the headlines read that he is offering $25K to the families of suicide bombers....

Holy Sh*t.  This is the first I am hearing about this.  The next thing I better hear is that he has been captured by us.  That is unbelievable......

I say no capturing him and letting him live, that would be to nice, he doesn't deserve it.  No...but a nice 7.62mm round right between his eyes would be perfect, heck maybe a couple rounds...he!!, why not just cover his body with hundreds of papercuts and then immerse him into a pool of salt water or acid (flashback to world history and the spanish inquisition (sp?)...then shoot him awhile later.   :D I volunteer to help...hooah.  :D

I was thinking along the same lines.

Throw him in a cement truck filled with glass, razor blades and other assorted sharp pointy things.  Fill the drum up with alcohol and let it mix.  :D

Sincity & AU - I like the way you think!  George Sr. should've let Stormin' Norman go into Baghdad and flatten the place.

      Vehicle Payments

      By ChristopherDobson · Posted

      Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.

      cam upgrade in CA

      By davester · Posted

      apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.

      Possible lifter tick after DOD delete

      By davester · Posted

      yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
