Got this email survey today from Ford for the 4 year Ranger anniversary. Needless to say my response when I went to the survey part was a different engine and transmission would make it a good truck that I would recommend to friends and family. Crappy shifting and oil fuel dilution make me...
Most of them are caused by faulty charging outlets installed burning the garage down, not the EV I read. EVs need outlets and power cords designed for full load for hours. Things like standard dryer and range outlets are only for intermittent loads at lower amperage. Not everyone that buys a EV...
Bring back the Halon fire suppression systems. Years ago a company I worked for got one of the first IBM mainframe computer systems. The computer room had auto lock doors and halon dump system should a fire break out. Once the alarm went off you had 60 seconds to get out or die locked in 😲...
Big no go if you want to map over 1.25 acres. The maps are limited to that area and it will not create maps exceeding that limit. It will mow it if you delete some areas to create new areas but there's no way to save the old maps and recall them after deleting. You have to remap and that takes...
Up here that's normal. Planting time and nothing but tractors on the roads. Some pulling really big tillage and planting equipment. When we first moved up here all the farmers and towns had Ford trucks. About 10 years ago they switched to GM trucks, and now I see them switching to Dodge Rams...
Down mowing around the pond today with the offset flail. AC cranking, music playing, and bugs crawling all over the outside of the cab. No more sneezing from the pollen flying. At my age, I need all the comfort I can get.
That was the first one and they couldn't fix it so eventually they took it back (I sent emails to all the corporate officers in Japan that seemed to help get things moving finally) . I paid the difference and went with a diesel RTV replacement. The diesel one sucks also. Will only go 18 mph max...
I recently had a recall on my Kubota RTV. The upper ball joint bolts were never tightened and the front wheels could flop over causing death or dismemberment 😲. Do not drive warning. Apparently they had a torque tool that wasn't calibrated for over a year 😬. Mine were definitely loose. Post...
I mow about 8 acres and this definitely won't do it all. If this can keep the top acre around the house mowed then the rest can go a couple weeks with the big tractor and flail mower. I think this should do 2 acres and that's my next attempt. Setting up 2 - 1 acre maps that can be done on...
We cut about every 4 days now also. I have mostly weeds though. Luckily dandelion season is over. Now cottonwood season is starting making it look like everything is covered in snow.
