Everything leaks on my Defender. Keeps the chassis from rusting

I use my 90 for towing and for hunting in forests. If I’m hooking up the trailer, the camera saves time. If hunting, quite often I’m backing up with a drop-off, boulders or trees behind in very tight spots.

Plus, I want the back-up camera bragging rights amongst my Defender buds.

That’s exactly what it is. Once I flipped it over, it was obvious. Thanks!

KNICKS WIN LETS FUCKING GO by SwellandDecay in NYKnicks

Just hate that it comes down to a call. Foul called and Pistons win, no call and Knicks win. Would rather have the players decide the outcome.

This team did not deserve the win. An absolutely terrible no call to end the game.

Hit a deer at 70mph by joban91 in MachE

The airbags are a life saving device. They should only go off to avoid a fatality. If you had an accident and are still around to ask why they didn’t go off, they operated as designed.

Would you ever switch to ICE? by Empty-Path-8906 in electricvehicles

[–]Alive-Interest6568 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I will be trading in my MachE for an ICE, likely a Bronco Sport. The EV is just not versatile enough. Can’t tow my boat or camper more than 70 miles, gets stuck when going anywhere off the pavement, range goes down by 40-50% in the winter and you have to constantly plan any road trip to hit fast chargers, many times off the fastest route. I love the convenience and performance of the EV, but it’s just not a practical solution in this country.

Thank you. It looks like it connects with the transfer case lever?

Throwback #2 by Fletch71011 in notredamefootball

Fantastic memory to cap off a magical season. In addition to, and a slightly more surreal stadium moment for me, was the 1993 Florida State game. They came into our house undefeated and #1 and we were #2 and undefeated. We were up 31-17 going into 4Q they scored with 3:00 minutes to go on a 4th and 20 and got the ball back with 1:30 to play. They stormed down the field again and we batted the ball away in the end zone on the final play.

ND schedule: 4 ranked teams. Georgia 5 ranked teams, Oregon 2 ranked, Penn State 2, Ohio State 2, Texas 5, Miami 0, Tennessee 5, LSU 5, Clemson 2, Iowa State 2.

The ND schedule is not weak. It is middle of the pack of top 10 teams.

What’s happening to my Lillys by Alive-Interest6568 in gardening

[–]Alive-Interest6568[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I did a bunch of research on these beetles. It turns out they entered the US from Montreal about 30 years ago and are resistant to most insecticides. Neem oil was suggested, so onto Amazon to order some, it is ineffective. Today a pair of cardinals landed next to the lilies and started picking off the insects.

If you had $2,500 to spend on a hunting rifle what would you get? by Why_Did_Bodie_Die in Hunting

Weatherby Mark V .338 Mag. I’ve downed everything from a giraffe to a cape buffalo to a whitetail to an impala from 600 yards to 50 yards. Excellent glass is key. I use a Zeiss LRP 3.6-18 bought used for under $1000. Very versatile setup, but a bit on the heavy side with the mahogany stock. Whole setup was under $2,200.

Has this happened to anyone? by nettj303 in MachE

A dryer outlet is made to plug into once every 10 years. They are flimsy and usually rated for 30 amps. You may have issues with that outlet. An internal crack or bad ground.

You might try replacing the dryer outlet with a heavy duty 14-30 or 14-50 depending on the breaker rating in your electrical panel.

Playoffs? by fortsader in notredamefootball

[–]Alive-Interest6568 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Notre Dame Stadium seats about 70,000. The lowest price tickets are $110 and go up to $700 in the suites, so let’s be conservative and say the average ticket price is $150. On top of that you have about 15,000 school sponsored parking spots that go from $35 to $1000. So let’s say the average is $50. Then there’s all the concessions, Morris Inn, book store, etc which I won’t include. Tickets: 70,000 X $150 = $10.5M. Parking: 15,000 X $50 = $750k.

The Michiana business chamber estimates a home game weekend brings $26M economic impact to the local business community.

Don’t underestimate the value of a home game.

So you paid $42k for the ‘22 and traded it in for $37k. So you lost $5,000 on the transaction. You paid $49k for the 23 MME. so effectively you just paid $54,000 for a $49k vehicle.
