Good job, Kramer! I had mine down to 12 km (7.5 miles) and I was getting a bit concerned. I think I was paying more attention to my Google Maps and info screen than I was to the road ahead.Pushed it to the limits.
Dare you to go 0 miles to empty. Did that once or twice with my 2020 ranger. Pics here somewhere in the forums.Pushed it to the limits.
If you keep going will it go negative?
In the process of having seven removed here. All good size Ponderosas or bull pines depending on what you want to call them. They had to lower most of the big branches with a rope and zip lined one of them to the chipper. He's going to drop them into 12-16' lengths to be hauled off by a truck for free since they can be taken by the truckload to a mill. No damage to anything so far and I won't have all the pine needles and cones to pick up anymore. With the wind storms we've had I don't need these falling either. When we have the the money the other four will go, too.Parked it as far from these guys as possible…
Although, of the eight trees they took out, they could have dropped any of them between two parked cars.
Some of the trees were very close to the house but it was no big deal for these pros….
These were all dead ash trees (ash borer) except for one tall cedar that didn’t make it through a recent storm. It was only being held up by other trees and had to go. It was very interesting to watch these guys work since they couldn’t get their big bucket truck in and had to climb and top most of the trees before they could drop them. There is a gulley with a creek beside the cottage, which created additional challenges so there really is a lot to it - very impressed with the skill these folks have.
Tightest I ever got was coasting into the gas station in my 2G Escape with 2km (about 1.25 miles) worth of fuel left.Pushed it to the limits.
And people wonder why it is so expensive to take down a tree. Not like timber in the woods & let it fall
So true Larry. It takes very skilled workers with expensive hands-on tools.
Enjoy your time off Clay! Sometimes it's good to take a break and regroup and/or change careers to recharge yourself. I stayed in the same field for 42 years and while I hated it at times the money was great and I met some very nice and interesting people along the way.I went to the bank, gas station and the grocery store this afternoon. Hauled the trash off after all of that.
Then I drove out Lake Bois D Arc just because, eh why not.
I'm currently unemployed on my terms. After having worked at Tyson for 17 years. That was 8 years the first time I worked there, and 9 years at the end of the second time that I worked there. I decided that it was time for something closer to the house. I'll find something else hopefully here before to long.
Your timing is nice - who doesn’t like summer?I went to the bank, gas station and the grocery store this afternoon. Hauled the trash off after all of that.
