I don't know what all the whining is about.

Take democracy into your hands! And think about what you're spending money on. At the end, the money going to the share holders is YOURS!

Yep, I've been TRYING to do that for 8+ years now. I seem to be one of FEW.  

 

I used to love Ben & Jerry's ice cream, and Starbucks Frappuccinos sold the 4-pack of bottles, but I dropped both like a bad transmission - the ice cream over 10 years ago, and the coffee 4 or so years ago. More recently, Nike and Dick's are on my shit-list.

It's the least we can do... How's The 'Clinton Tour' doing?  They are worried. 

 

90% of all the media in the civilized world is owned by 6 corporations, and they all have the same message..."You are stupid/smart, let us tell you what/how to think."  Coincidence? 

 

They fall apart if we make up our own minds.  The truth is not on TV.  It's at your fingertips.

I love all the talk of EVs, the only problem is electric power plants are usually powered by fossil fuels. In the high demand days they already have rolling brown outs. As far as the best policy a little test. Which administrations had the best economies? Reagan, Clinton, Trump. They cut taxes, regulations and welfare reform. Which states have the best economy? Conservative ones. You want socialism? Russia, Cuba, Venezuela anyone? You want open borders? Sponsor a immigrant on your dime. I’m tired of 50 percent total taxation. I give to charity of my choosing.

Read up on the largest estimate of continuous oil that USGS has ever assessed in the United States. Fact is the United States has enough oil to keep internal combustion cars on the roads for years to come. Screw Tesla, screw Marcone. Screw Barra. Screw the globalists. Until a more efficient, less costly way of transportation is perfected the internal combustion engine is here to stay as long as people don't buy into the BS. Wonder why the schools are nothing but indoctrination centers?

America was is not supposed to be a democracy.  Democracies always fail from within.  The United States is supposed to be a Constitutional Republic where the Constitution governs men's actions, not mob rule.

At this point in time, we aren’t even a Constitutional Republic, we are a Plutocratic Oligarchy!

      on-wheel cellphone control: 2026 1500 WT (2.7L 4WD std cab)

      By bwiese · Posted

      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.

      "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
