    After putting a new fusebox and rear brake light circuit boards in my eBay cart - and seeing the price - I suddenly felt like putting some labor into the old girl. 3 hours later I have a solid steering column, signal and hazard flashers without punching said steering column, and the knowledge...

    For the present, I'm infatuated with my shiny new visa debit cashback.... Never had one. Cashback actually encourages me to pay bills rather than let them season for awhile :tearsofjoy: 0.5%, but the no fee 1.5% will be here soon Edit: ok this is kinda cool. Cashback on all my cellphones for...

    Far north Walmart bag of cashews = $14 :wtf: Now to hit 3 hours of darkness, and choose my death: head on collision, or avoiding head on collision to fall to the rocks below (no curb, just cliff) Just kidding. I don't need to do 140 in an 80 like the locals. Really sobering to see all the...

    I forgot you did that. We're the first to suffer in a van. With a larger truck, I can go from local freight schlepper to expedite to ltl every load. I could even load the damn thing with 10 uship motorcycles and go sightseeing. Van, I can be an underpaid slave working in pouring rain...

    There's that, but other than volume of business, can I really complain about $1.06 usd a mile ++? Found out the insurance on a 5 ton costs the same I'm paying from a buddy. Tell me 10 skids won't pay more than 3...as a true independent.... Edit: you think rates are bad now...watch me take 10...

    Extra battery

    Now I'm confused :p In my case, the disconnect is simply to stop a laser printer load from frying the stock wiring. It runs off the thick cabling from my batteries to inverter well enough, but if I remember right, you take the ac load in amps on your appliances and multiply by 10 for the DC...
