Stubby has arrived !!

Never listen to radio, not much clearance with stock antenna in our garage door opening, and to avert disaster from low-hanging things.

Good idea! I have to be careful when parking in my garage so that the antenna does not hit the hanger on the garage door opener...

Pennzoil Ultra Platinum for next oil change (already have a bunch of 910s oil filters), Meguiar’s Wash and wax (tried a few different ones which work fine but I swear Meguiar’s is better), and Meguiar’s glass cleaner.

I got the regular "platinum" Pennzoil, not sure of the difference if any.

200 miles in and my engine hasn't exploded so I'm sure it's fine.

I said to myself a few weeks back “if Ryan Blaney wins the title I’m using PUP next oil change.” Sure enough!

Received the MBS transmission dipstick on Friday, but wasn’t home since I went pick up my new Intech Flyer Chase.

Risky spot in Florida, after the recent hurricane, a big branch off a pine tree fell on me while riding on my grasshopper mower..knocked me off the mower which ran over my right arm, Auto shut off stopped the blades from hitting me..broke off the oil filter and mount and broke some switches.. Just got lucky I guess…:crazy:

Jeezaloo Doc, that was a close call. :oops:

You’re right about that tree. I was camping in Hawaii (Kahana Bay Beach Park) and pitched my tent under a big palm tree. The park attendant soon came by to let me know how a branch or coconut could quickly ruin my vacation. ?

Duke,
I had my house re-roofed several years ago and due to the vibration of the work (from hammering) being done on the roof of the great room, a defective part in the mount of the ceiling fan broke and the whole fan assembly separated from the mount. Fortunately the electrical wiring was strong enough to catch it and suspend it several feet down from the mount. If it had fallen on someone the glass cover over the bulb would have got them 1st then the weight of this heavy fan would have done some really serious damage :frown:

The 3 wires that prevented the fan assembly from coming all the way down:

This is all that remained on the ceiling after the fan assembly separated from the mount:
