    Drafted

    Only an idiot would let someone who's never driven an MV, drive it in emergency conditions. That's just asking for a LODD...

    Deuce intake mushroom

    You can always run a self tapping screw or two into it as an extra back up to the clamp.

    Distracted Driving

    I've been on wrecks where the seat were in use, and the occupant still died. Sometimes there's just too much momentum for a human body to handle. And I've seen some of the older door mounted seat belts release the occupant when the door was popped open from a severe impact.

    HF Jack Stands

    I would've told them I'm going to stand out in front of the store and tell everyone walking in about the quality of their products and show them the jack until they gave me a refund. I bet they would change their tune then...

    Oil / Fluids in the sun?

    The bigger problem is the UV damage to the plastic drums. They'll probably be ok for a couple of years, but storing them in the sun will definitely shorten their lifespan.

    Copper Scrap Thieves --> CRISPY CRITTERS

    Copper vs a life...Hmm lets see. BTW, I make a very good salary, and it is in no way compensation for seeing that kind of stuff, because it doesn't go away. Wishing death on others is no better than stealing copper. I've probably wished that on others in my life, and it was wrong. We all...

    Copper Scrap Thieves --> CRISPY CRITTERS

    A lot of people here liked the outcome, but I bet that would change if they had to clean that up. That might have been a good kid at one time. Just sayin'. Don't get me wrong, I'd be PO'd if I was a victim of copper theft, but how about we say it would be justice if they lost a finger or two...

    Educating and learning

    Uh, learning here may be the ONLY way some people out there can learn. Not everyone lives next door to an MV Guru... I learned how to bale hay completely from the internet...

    Best for thinning WMO

    Good thing I'm so busy, I have a couple of drums of WMO that have been settling for about 8 months. I'll start filtering in May or June when it warms up. I've used old diesel and gas, a little fresh gas as well to thin it. Once it's run through the filters it should be decent. I'll probably...

    Distracted driving

    I'll NEVER get in a self driving car unless it's a Disney World ride. As for what to do? Take their license to drive and make them walk. Until then just keep publicizing that stupidity cost another person texting their life.

    Distracted driving

    Just the other day while a significant amount of snow was falling, I passed THREE PEOPLE IN A ROW, on a Cloverleaf on the interstate that were texting. They're working on more legislation to try an combat this. The thing is they already have two laws on the books they can use. The only thing...

    What do you do for seeing behind you?

    I continuously check my mirrors so I can keep track of who's around me, kinda like an air traffic controller. I don't feel the need for a camera 99% of the time. The only time it's useful to me is when there's a crowd of people, and then I'd want to have a backer anyway. As for the narrow...

    Distracted driving

    "If you're smart enough to text and drive and you're going to keep doing it, please get out of the way. Some of us are task focused and need to deliver your goods that some of your tax dollars pay for. " If they had any smarts at ALL, they wouldn't text and drive. Only morons text and drive...
