On I85 a bale of straw or hay fell off a truck in front of the car which the employee was driving. What he didn’t know was part of the bale became wedged underneath the car. The heat from the car...

    Scratch

    Is it possible that it was the result of some road debris? Maybe after bouncing off the bumper? I’ve seen debris take a strange path after coming off a tire.

    Due to the crazy traffic at the Daytona Beach Buc-ees location, I rarely go there. But every time I’ve been there, I’ve witnessed a fender bender in the parking lot or at the gas pumps. I’m more of a fan of Lexington style BBQ with the red slaw, and a close second is Eastern NC BBQ which has...

    New Battery

    Our GCFI was taken out by a nearby lightning strike. The first indication was it was flashing. I recently posted that the ground for the GCFI can be on opposite ends depending on the manufacturer. Cary was a tremendous help with the troubleshooting.

    My first bike was a Hodaka 90. A great trail bike in the mid to late 60s. Always noticed with that big chrome gas tank. Not to be confused with Honda. After owning most of the commons brands over the years including pulling a Leisure Lite Camper behind my Honda Goldwing; I sold everything when...

    I just remove the fuse on the bottom of the Autobrake in the galley to de-power it and limit my power loss when not towing.

    Lithium Battery BMS Behavior

    I’ll try to contribute with my limited knowledge in what I have observed with my 560. Every time, solar will take my lithium battery to 100%. On AC power, the charger will initially kick in but will quickly terminate charging if the lithium battery is over 85% to 88% charge. The charger will...

    Cleaning Under the Stove

    That’s one benefit for being of small stature as I can get my arms where others can’t. I just use a mild bacterial wipe to clean there. When I was an Airframe and Powerplant Mechanic in the late 70s the other mechanics were always asking me to access bolts/nuts through the inspection panels.

    2025 Toyota Land Cruiser 250

    The latest Motortrend article on the RAV4 was very good. Definitely a consideration for me if I could get the wife to sell our Escape 21C. My 2023 RAM etorque died with no warning recently. It doesn’t have a traditional alternator. It has a Motor Generator Unit and a 48 volt battery which powers...
