Good morning!!!!

[RedNeckGeek]

The pic is for everyone that misses the snow.

I don't miss the snow, AT ALL, CWB, but I do miss the changing colors on the trees. Thanks for sharing your photo with us!

Just about the same amount of time.... 45 years 8 days same employer.

What took you so long to retire?

The 2019 Stinger has a cordless charging pad also, so you can be charging your phone while Apple Car Play is working which includes an excellent up to date nav.
Its also faster than a Corvette.

"Its also faster than a Corvette"

The 2020 base Corvette, with 495 HP, does 0-60 MPH in 2.92 seconds. The 2019 Corvette ZR1, with 755 HP is sub 3 seconds as well.

That would make the Kia Stinger ...... scary fast.

But ..... probably not as "triple scary fast" as a "Made in Texas" Hennessy Venom F5 with 1817 HP?

Sounded to me like he was saying it’s faster than your Corvette! Sounds like a challenge to me! LOL

Got the larger, split screen and wanted HD

Thank you David. Are the cables, to the cameras, pretty durable.

My LS XR4155 HC is cab version so .... I'd mount the monitor on front left from the cab ceiling, fix mount the rear camera up near one of the rear work lights.

I plan to attach the front camera to a very large magnet with a 1/4-20 stud, on an umbilical, so the camera could be moved around for various front implements like grapple, pallet forks, bucket, tree / post puller, stump bucket, etc.

I'm wondering if the camera would be affected by the magnet?

I'd have a go at that!

Hmm. My Charger is faster than yours.

I don’t currently own a Charger, soooooooo... but there are two in my past.

Cables are nice, 4 pin aviator connectors.

Don’t know about the magnets, will try tomorrow and see.

Finding the right mounting point may be more challenging than I thought. Mounted them with zip ties where I planned, but no re if I’ll get the angles I want. Hoping to see quick attach mounts, bucket edge, and end of forks in front. Hope to see 3 pt and rear of mower in back. Would prefer a stable mount and my aluminum frame doesn’t lend itself to magnets unless I get creative. Either studs or maybe HF magnet bar. I’d also like to keep cables inside my frame.






The DVR and picture taking functions are likely overkill, but never know.

I modified my grill guard and added an angle at the top for future camera mount position before I decided on a movable magnet mount. The magnet would allow me to attach the camera to the top of the pallet fork frame, etc.



I would be curious to see the monitor view If you zip tied your front camera to the top of your grill guard, looking down at your bucket? Looks like it's attached to your shade frame in your pictures? I'm trying to get an idea how "wide angle" the cameras are?

Is your rear camera also attached to upper section of your frame?

Wouldn't reasonably priced wireless cameras be great?

Thanks for your help!

We are talking about charging speed, right? :confused3:

Got my Ranger today I put the pic and review after a 1hour drive on the new Ranger thread here:

Still have to program MyKey and garage door opener and test a few more things, very impressed so far.

Of course we are. Glad you got your new truck Don.

Congrats on new truck, Don. Nice

Clear skies let out a lot of heat last night. Fortunately is stayed a couple of degrees on the right side of freezing, so no threat to yesterdays brick pointing. It should stay dry until teatime today, though I'm thinking I ought to spend the day keeping my wife happy by tidying up the garden, instead of starting another project.

CWB, thanks for posting your autumn snow pic. Always nice to see your pole fences, they remind me of the rest my grandparents had for keeping the blade of the carving knife from touching their table cloth. My parents had knife rests too, though I can't remember them being used, possibly the Formica laminated top was easier to clean than a knife rest

Quick stop in to catch up. Nice mods sodamo!
Congratulations Thomas! I have 268 more workday slow rolls. I’m happy for you. Glad everyone seems on the mend, off to Pa. for 4 days at the fall Carlisle show. Looks like it will be a wet one.
Stay safe everyone!

good morning all.
97 degrees forecast for today. The last of the painting will remain a sweaty affair. Can't wait til that's done and I can escape into a/c

Don, very nice Ranger, like the color, good luck with it.

Phil, take some pics please when you go to Carlisle. Hard not to find something there to take home.

I'd get started painting early but have to do a blood draw at 9am for thyroid testing, so that I will come home to.
Taking big assortment of veggies to doc office, big smiles when they see me coming in with bags of something.
Pretty much the end of the line for peppers, but okra is indestructible, it keeps flowering and producing.

couldn't ever find my missing Kindle so had to buy another, just set it up, went easily and downloaded everything very quickly.
This time I bought the lightest cover I could find for it and it still seems kinda heavy. Just spoiled with how light the device is, helps for arthritic
hands not to have to squeeze too hard, particularly at end of day when everything is sore.

Ordered about a hundred bulbs to plant this fall, Garden Club fund raiser, real Dutch bulbs, looks wonderful first year, not many come back though.
with the auger bit on the cordless drill, very easy to plant.

I am amazed that six out of the ten top books listed on Kindle for this month are all Harry Potter books. Still.... what staying power that franchise has.
J.K. Rowling must be quite pleased.

37F now upper 50's for high.

Leaves starting fall more and more now more so with wind and rain combo.
After work talk trimmer for much needed walk around front field spruce trees.
Today I'll finish my goodbyes hand in keys passwords remove,around noon drive off campus one last time.
E muffin feed little critters slow...slow roll to work for the last time.

Enjoy the day all.
