  1. Looking for suggestions on Transporting Inflatable Raft

    Thanks, that's a great idea and might work, I found this one on amazon that's lightweight, one thing I would need to add is some sort of cushioning or roller on the vertical uprights, if I could put a roller onto each upright it might be possible to ratchet it onto the tonneau cover, but...
  2. Looking for suggestions on Transporting Inflatable Raft

    Last summer purchased a Bris inflatable raft mostly for fishing lakes, may have bitten off more than I can handle as it's cumbersome weighs 125 lbs, I tow a 23' trailer and oft times to launch the raft I have to drive to a boat launch, so transporting the raft when it's inflated for short...

    Today is N'tl PU truck day, also n'tl absinthe day, but don't drink and drive, esp that green sh#t , IIRC it was outlawed in the US for a long long time. Don't think there is a n'tl damper day, thankfully Key Details About National Pickup Truck Day (March 5): Origin: Initiated around 2018 to...

    A young man came to visit his grandparents, and he noticed his grandfather sitting on the porch in a rocking chair wearing only a shirt, with nothing on from the waist down. “Grandpa!” he exclaimed, “What are you doing? Your weenie is out in the wind for everyone to see!” The old man looked...
  5. China copy cat

    FWIW, AI compiled comparison between US industrial development and that of China, extracts from https://www.construction-physics.com/p/how-china-is-like-the-19th-century, how China is like 19th century US, copying is arguably much easier now because of global technology sharing, not trying...

    In the US we need to leverage the investment in the EV network with such flying machines and if necessary add more to mitigate range anxiety. 😂
  7. Battery died and now my ASS is back

    BMS while good in theory isn't a system that works well for all different use scenarios, this is reflected in some posters having batteries last for 4 or 5 yrs and haven't modified any settings, whilst others report batteries failing in under 2 yrs. The fuel saving concept is charging the...

    . Well some of the world knows it and acknowledges it while others..........Personally I'm happy to be living where I do, the population density of many countries in Asian is something that I wouldn't be comfortable living in .

  10. China copy cat

    As you likely know LG and Samsung are Korean companies - however with the exception of their very high end TVs most of their TVs are now made in China, Hisense and TLC are Chinese companies and their TVs have become very very good. Companies that made highly durable long lasting products have...
  11. China copy cat

    yep, China is the world's manufacture - 60% of global mfg goods are made in China and that number is only projected to grow. It would cost about $5k to equip Chinese made autos to meet safety standards in the US , even adding on another $3k in tariff money they would seriously undercut current...

    Well the east and mid west are having a hellacious winter, but the Lincoln brings back memories of the blizzard of 77 in Buffalo NY, friend had IIRC a 66 Continental, it had a positraction rear end that was malfunctioning so he rarely drove it, driving was banned in the city for 5 days or...

    ¨ A cabbie picks up a nun. She gets in the back seat, and after a few minutes, she notices the very handsome driver keeps staring at her. She finally asks “My child, why are you staring at me?” He hesitates and says “I… I have a question, but I don´t want to offend you.” She smiles kindly and...
  14. Darwin Award Thread

    I'm a Mikaela Shiffrin fan , she's humble and low key and I think better looking than Lindsey and in general skis more under control than Vonn. She's had to overcome a serious injury last season and has spoken openly on the impact it had

  17. USA beats Canada in OT to win first hockey gold since 1980 'Miracle on Ice'

    Robinson was great and at one time the Canadians had Ken Dryden in the net , I used to faithfully watch hockey night in Canada, haven't been to many NHL games but more minor league hockey , bison in buffalo and I think the flames in denver, tiks were cheap even for close seats and minor league...
  18. USA beats Canada in OT to win first hockey gold since 1980 'Miracle on Ice'

    Hockey is a wonderful game to play - and I've watched very little hockey in the past 20 yrs, really like hockey more when there were just 6 teams, none in the warmer climes and yes the players would hammer each other relentlessly and rely on enforcers to protect their teammates, but yrs back...
  19. USA beats Canada in OT to win first hockey gold since 1980 'Miracle on Ice'

    Well Canada did take gold in a more cerebal sport - curling . I think one player was key to the (hockey) win. Interesting that for this Olympics the rink size was smaller than international size, was more nhl size, I incorrectly assumed that wider rinks promoted more wide open play and more...

    this has been a focus of several bills in the US, don't know which ones have passed but one study revealed that methane from cattle comes predominatly from their burps and not farts. Maybe we should equip cattle with methane collection apparatus, of course paid for by the gov. I'm easily...
