    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I put the lights in to deter any new squatters. The PB laced traps help kill the squatters already in place. I tried to evict them, but they said they are still hanging onto their rights’ during Covid. That and they won’t sign anything siting they lack opposable thumbs!! :rotflmao

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I should have taken a photo, killed 2 mice squatting in my van. Killed 9 of those vagrants so far!!! Caught one alive the other day stuck in the trap with his leg broken. Shaking and scared he was hiding under the driver’s seat. Almost felt bad for the little fella. But since the birds...

    Trans Temp too cold?

    On Cubey’s post above, I heard somewhere sometime ago that trans temps typically run 100F over ambient. I’m sure there are tons of variables, just something I’ve read or heard. Cubey’s MH is pretty much running 100F over ambient being worked hard. No lock-up.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Ok ok, my youth fails me!! @KansasIDI @IDIBRONCO you guys convinced me surge brakes are a bad idea :idiot: I need to get a box for the front of mine. Where do you keep your spare? Might be the same as your pickup, my trailer has a 5-lug GM 10-bolt under it. And like you I love to be able to...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I thought the new pickups all had timers on them to shut off or even lock the doors if the key is not sensed or some other algorithm I’m not aware of.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Man, I must be forgetting to remember correctly. 20 some years ago we had them on equipment flatbeds, steel decks. Only used them in the summer though. I thought they worked pretty awesome. Course in a runaway situation they wouldn’t help at all either. Maybe they make an electric over...

    Trans Temp too cold?

    I just stole that from @Cubey. Thought it relevant to this discussion. Here B&M, a respected (?) transmission retailer/manufacturer shows in their own gauge as 220 being the acceptable high range... I can tell you this. We had a 2007 6L80 and they were known to have a manufacturing defect in...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    @IDIBRONCO man I like your pickup and trailer setup. I have a similar one. For S&G’s I dream about adding one of those hitches on slides to activate the drum brakes on mine. And also making it a dump bed. But there goes the Waylon Jennings “Drinkin’ and Dreamin’”

    Traveller Smurf (Cubey's '89 van)

    @Cubey do you have enough solar and batteries to find an induction burner? If so I’d run 2 of those if possible as most meals can be done on 2 butners Then save your “fuel” based set-up as backup and for those days when it’s just so gorgeous outside you gotta be in it!!! Cooking of course...

    Trans Temp too cold?

    I think I’ll continue to follow the rad inline with a 20k or bigger external cooler and a Pan temp gauge and filter as nice add-ons Thanks again!!! I’m a standard trans guy but don’t wanna swap my van!! The suburban I’m still on the fence LOL

    Trans Temp too cold?

    @XOLATEM thank you very much for your thoughts and expertise. I’m going to try and write this concisely, but prolly unlikely. And know I’m not trying to paint you or anyone into a corner, just learn from your experiences. I always understood the radiator cooler to do 2 things: 1- aid in warm...

    Trans Temp too cold?

    There a video on YouTube from an engine who decided to quit his day job and become a RV delivery guy. He has, I think a 2007 GM D/A combo. He is meticulous on records. Original engine/trans. Drives 55mph whether loaded or not. He said he purposely deleted the external cooler. He sees trans...

    Trans Temp too cold?

    Does the E4OD prevent 4th gear or lockup until it reaches a certain temp? I feel like I read that somewhere, and I feel like last winter I noticed it would hold 3rd a LOT longer. But my mind likes to play tricks on me :dunno

    Kansas IDI get together

    The influx of migratory birds to CA has created such a sky-way traffic jam that CO now has a black cloud swarming it’s eastern sky. Almost as if this silent cancer is taking over out great country. We will fall to immoral rule by vote alone due to media brainwashing. I’m concerned for where...

    Funny thing is, wife and I spoke this morning as she is in Vail, 4-6” of snow in town. She brought up we should stop drinking until at least Christmas. So we set a date!!

    @KansasIDI the pop I stopped drinking 18 years ago. One classmate told me how bad it was and stopped right there, just as @DaveBen said, I wanted to quit. The alcohol I need to do it, but not at the point where I want to do it. I can take it or leave it, my wife has a much harder time. There...

    @DaveBen congrats on 29 years!!!! My longest friend is 27 years. I keep giving up for a year here and there but like the damn taste too much. Have not been in trouble. I usually stick to only 2 at most at a time. And want to get even less as I age
