Congratulations!

Heyyyy... I only look like that until I have coffee and a shower...

This is so out of control in South Florida. I don't care for any type of activity where the people are walking in between the cars in traffic. I's just an accident waiting to happen. I especially cringe when it's kid sports teams raising money for a trip, and they let the kids wander through...

"So you wanna go fast? Fast costs money... How fast you wanna go?"

VSS is a Vehicle Speed Sensor. As far as I can tell, the 5G Ranger doesn't have one. https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/speedometer-sensor.9468/post-175291 "Our newer Rangers get their raw speed signal from the OSS (Output Shaft Speed) sensor in the transmission housing as Ranger Pride...

I have a "drive-under" hoist rig I built myself from Home Depot lumber. I could send you some plans, or if you're willing to pay for the freight (or pick it up in person) I'll let you have it for free. The Clicker Press I used it for (see attached photos) was over 600 lb. and it handled it fine.

I have to check, but I think this feature can activated using ForScan. Maybe Lariat only, or maybe only F-150. I don't remember exactly.

Oops. You're right. I guess I fail my qualification, too. :)

This is pretty much my routine, too.

It's really about the consequences of how mechanical air conditioning works. The condenser coil accumulates moisture by being a cold object exposed to the atmosphere. This moisture just sits on the condenser and in the drip tray. A totally closed cab humidity rises to nearly 100% after a few...

I agree with 90+% of what you are saying here. The primary root cause of all this nonsense is twofold. Numero Uno, and the most obnoxious and least amenable to change is that people demand the manufacturer protect them against all possible hazards of using their products, and demand this be...

Well, I disagree, for the reasons I mentioned. Efficiency is relative to the other parameters of importance. You are comparing the 50 kW turbine hybrid I envisioned to a mid-size economy car, the Camry. 50 kW is probably overkill for such a vehicle. the 50 kW is probably sufficient power for...

Probably true. They blame the Forrestal fire on a starter turbine parked under a live rocket pod. Heated them up to ignition temp and started shooting out all over the flight deck, hitting other armed aircraft. The resulting mess nearly sank the ship.

Brilliant "analysis"... I'm not going to be rude, because I know very well you didn't actually do any calculations to make these statements. But I will go so far as to assume you didn't really understand the system I was envisioning. I am very familiar with the Chrysler Turbine car. I have...

But the turbine could be really small, if all it's doing is running a recharge generator for the battery system. That way it can be sized for the average power requirement, rrather than for peak output like a typical usage. If all you need is an average of 15-30 HP, then the turbine can be...

My dad has a Realistic 20 Watt/channel setup in his workshop

Anybody remember the "OH NO! It's EATING my tape!!!"

I'm restoring a Kenwood KR7600 receiver right now. 70s and 80s HiFi scene produced some amazing equipment. The photo attached is not of my unit, but just to give a flavor. It's got that silky smooth flywheel tuning knob, and beautiful lighting. 100 watts per channel. I have a few pairs of...

There is extra design work involved. Shielding, filtering, even modulation frequency selection to a certain extent. It can be done, (obviously), but it costs more to do. So they want to eliminate this expense, and it is of no concern to them that this will make us all more dependent on...

Yep. Specifically the high-frequency switching of high-current circuits to modulate the power. The way the battery power is applied to the motors is to switch the power on and off very rapidly (thousands of times per second), and control power delivery by governing how long each "power pulse"...
