    Starlink

    Our fiber to the house is about 13, maybe 15 years old and it's quite dependable but I noticed several times during the day it kicks in and out but sometimes it's just a flash. When the Tesla/ starlink phone service is available, I might take a look at that. Verizon is the best choice around...

    Ford 3600 - HELP!

    Nice looking 3600. Our 1980 3600 is a diesel and has set outside for the last 40 years and goes by Rusty.

    Walmart's direct push into EV charging.

    Oaktree any EV owner charging at WM, Tesla Supercharger etc needs to stick with gas or diesel vehicles if they're going to spend 3-4 hours connected to the WM or Tesla chargers because chargers keep the meter running even when charged to 100% if charging cable is not physically removed from the...

    Walmart's direct push into EV charging.

    This rollout is planned over the next five years. While Tesla brand chargers have good coverage, some of their locations suck.

    Good morning!!!!

    I think we are past icy mornings and grass is growing. Got the DR brush mower out to clean up some. The 1993 32' Georgie Boy Pursuit parked in the driveway next to the house fell into disuse when the kids got their driver licenses and trucks years ago. We bought it in 2007 when the twins were...

    Is the Cyber Truck a Flop?

    Change leaders are the current buyers of the Cyber truck for the most part. We are essentially looking at a cyber truck when the third generation releases.

    Is the Cyber Truck a Flop?

    They continue growing on the general public. About 6: 30 yesterday afternoon I went by The body shop to see if they had made any progress on my model. Y and got mugged by two bulldogs belonging to the body shop owner. I knew if they were out the owner had to be outside probably so I walked...

    CBD/hemp oil, anybody use it?

    Your thoughts and experiences mirrors mine to a large degree. The placebo effect can be huge. This is a financial problem for the pharmaceutical industry because about half of all drugs developed never get approved because they don't work any better than the placebo effect works. One of my...

    EV Charging - how to adjust charging amperage?

    On our 2016 leaf it can draw up to 26 but I don't haven't gotten away to modify that which is not a problem in my case because I have a 40 amp breaker to the outlet so I'm good up to 32. Now the Tesla lets me micromanage the current rate.

    Another tornado threat! Level 5 alert!

    We just got our power back. It was out for about 4 hours. I'm sure glad there's people that work in these kinds of storms to keep us power. Now I can connect to my CPAP machine.

    Another tornado threat! Level 5 alert!

    I have not been off the place yet today but I saw a video on Facebook of a neighbor. A mile and a half south of me right near the Tennessee border had lost trees in his front yard. The house looked to be intact and but it was a lot of white metal in the fields North of his place. So I assume it...
