  1. A Ford Ranger Super Duty?

    Longer bed and a 5th wheel hitch would be great for small 5th wheels. Sounds just like the old F250 light duty I used to have. Probably the same size also. History repeats itself ?.
  2. Ford Ranger Among ‘Most Dangerous’ Pickup Trucks

    I had that 8 track, 2 radio shack amplifiers, 8 pioneer speakers, and over 100- 8 tracks. Guess that's why I am deaf now and wear hearing aids.
  3. Ford Ranger Among ‘Most Dangerous’ Pickup Trucks

    But cell phones weren't available back then to distract you while driving. That's why I survived with no power steering or brakes. Many of today's fatal accidents are caused by distracted driving.
  4. Ford Ranger Among ‘Most Dangerous’ Pickup Trucks

    Maybe hit it with 8,500 pound Ford Lightnings ?.
  5. Ford Ranger Among ‘Most Dangerous’ Pickup Trucks

    Mine jumped 2 years ago on my Ranger. They said cost to repair them after an accident and theft of things like the LED lighting replacement cost gives them a higher rate now. I checked 2 other companies and got the same numbers. They didn't care it spends full time in my garage and not on the...

    So this must be why the insurance on my Ranger is much higher priced then my wife's Forester.
  7. Portable Solar Back Up Generators

    The problem we ran into is homeowners insurance if you add permanent solar to your house. I am planning on a trailer mounted portable system with 12k split phase output and about 40 kw of batteries. All batteries and equipment will be mounted in a room built on the trailer and just plugged...
  8. Portable Solar Back Up Generators

    Yes that's basically it. The battery will be determined by the inverter size you need. The BMS of the battery must be able to handle the inverter power requirement. Most 12v 100 ah batteries have a 100 amp BMS so your basically limited to a 1000 watt 120 volt inverter. The inverter can also...

  10. Portable Solar Back Up Generators

    I grew up to poor to pay attention ?. I just use a battery, shunt, and inverter so I'm not stuck with proprietary components that cost a fortune to repair. For $300 you can have the power of a $900 proprietary box with higher grade cells.
  11. Battery died today...

    Wondering what's a decent affordable battery tester? I see airline tech has the topdon. Amazon has the topdon 100 for under $50, or are there any others that members would recommend?

    We had that same slide at the playground. Would steal my mom's roll of wax paper and sit on pieces of that for a very quick trip down ?.
  13. How about some Jokes [Admin: No Politics, Religion, Nudity, Explicit Posts]

    We took a friend's banana bike and doubled the front forks for a springer front end look. He did our jump ramp. The forks bent and the front wheel flew off (guess hose clamps and friction tape were not strong enough). Over the handle bars he went and broke his collar bone. We got his mom and her...
