When driving, my goal is to move along seamlessly with the traffic. I don’t have any desire to cause someone who might be on edge because of some serious problem to do something stupid.
While driving, flying, or generally in life, situational awareness is a major factor contributing to...
Last night I went to our annual Township Meeting here in rural Southern IL. For the past several years meetings have often been very contentious, so I was hesitant to take the CT, but my wife was using our MY. The meeting went very smoothly and only lasted 30 min. For an hour after the meeting...
I use it
I use it every time I drive more than about a mile. V13 is almost perfect except it usually needs help in parking lots and driveways at the beginning and end of trips. I was amazed when it recently drove nicely on our snow covered unmarked one lane road.
I have a CT and a M Y. Have...
We had some snow a few weeks ago and the roads were heavily salted. My CT got heavily salted as well. I didn’t get around to washing it for a couple of weeks. I hand washed it on a nice day, and expected there might be some etching or something, but zero. If anything, it seemed a bit more shiny...
I just finished doing the same thing in 51 deg overcast. I wanted to get the salt off after a recent snow. Sprayed it down, went over sections with a rag and dilute Dawn in warm water. Rinsed that off with water from hose sprayer. Used microfiber cloths and paper shop towels to dry off. Cloth...
Yes. My Chevy Silverado 4x4 had such tires and wheels when I bought it. I had to replace wheel bearings on both fronts prematurely. Also were awkward turning. I went back to stock 17” wheels and tires.
This has been my experience. I was given the finger for the first time a few days ago by a driver of a car headed the opposite direction. Then, I went to Walmart, parked a ways out where there was plenty of room. A guy walking out as I was walking in said something snide about seeing some rust...
FWIW haven’t had to deal w that with my CT, but have w my MY. Opposite problem there bc of very low clearance of MY.
It is my understanding that tire rotation should be left rear to right front and opposite rear to opposite front. That makes it tricky to get those wheels off the ground unless...
What a fun way to start my day! Thanks! On the flip side, when I drive non-FSD, I worry about forgetting that the stupid car won’t slow for the car in front, change lanes, stop for traffic lights, etc.
I checked and YESSS! I have a download waiting here in the boonies in Southern Illinois (not that being in the boonies
Looks like I have it waiting to download here in the boonies in So. IL.
I haven’t experienced any hostility in person. My truck is the only one in our area of Southern Illinois, so it gets a lot of attention. Wide-eyed waving kids in passing cars with windows rolled down are the most fun. I have had 3 people ask if I made it! ?. A number are just really excited to...
