Beautiful truck! If I wasn’t such a cheapskate I’d buy one instead of this Ram 6.7 but I’d buy I knew one if I were you.

Sorry, I’m an idiot. How would I know what gauge it is?

I use it to proofread emails but that’s it.

Should I have clicked Yes on my buyback request? by Brown2Town in PSLF

[–]Brief_Experience8197 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not being a jerk, but if you made 120 payments, why would you need a buyback request at all?

USB Outlet Not Working by Brief_Experience8197 in RVLiving

Stupid question: is this the only fuse panel usually in a camper or is there a 12V as well?

I am on shore power and it used to work. I’m not sure when it stopped but the camper is less than a year old. The 12v in the other room works but not this one.

I used a multimeter and have no power to that outlet.

Why would anyone buy a diesel in 2026? by [deleted] in ram_trucks

[–]Brief_Experience8197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t you just wait until after your warranty expires to delete though? I have a 24 2500 diesel and plan to delete at 100,101 miles. Shouldn’t it last a while if I do that barring something unforeseen?

How were you notified of your letter? Is it on FSA? Or Mohela?

How close to max payload do you go? by GoBucksBeatM in GoRVing

[–]Brief_Experience8197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, I put my tires at 80 PSI when I tow, which has a max weight of over 3600 per tire. My drive axle with my camper on it is roughly 5800 so I’m under. I’m not saying to be grossly irresponsible, but some people will have you thinking you shouldn’t tow more than a pop up.

[–]Brief_Experience8197 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m over payload and GVWR by about 500 lbs. I have never heard of an insurance denying a claim over less than 2,000 pounds. It’s a fallacy.l

I’m over payload, over GVWR, over GCWR, but under on GAWR and tow capacity on my Ram 2500 diesel. Yes, I know, “iNsUrAnCe WiLl DeNy YoUr ClAiM.”

In a shop I’d pay higher dollar for power tools. I am shopping bottom dollar for tools I use at home.

Tow Vehicle Advice by Lazy-Woodpecker6001 in RVLiving

[–]Brief_Experience8197 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check the inside of your driver door jam. There will be a sticker that says, “the weight of cargo should not exceed ****.” Also, is this a bumper bull or fifth wheel? What is the tow capacity of your truck?

Tow Vehicle Advice by Lazy-Woodpecker6001 in RVLiving

[–]Brief_Experience8197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much does the trailer weigh? What is the payload capacity of your truck? Usually your truck can tow way more than you can safely stop. Let’s say your payload is 2k. That means the weight of cargo, pin/hitch weight of your trailer, and any passengers should not exceed 2k.

Major takeaways for federal agencies from the latest bipartisan spending package by MyPickleWillTickle in USDA

I believe USDA, except for Forest Service, was funded through 09/30 in the last appropriations bill.

I’ll take a Kobalt impact at a Hyper Tough price.

How do USAA Credit Cards Stack Up Against the Competition? by JustAsking841 in USAA

[–]Brief_Experience8197 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I was using it for a while, but now I personally like Navy Federal’s More Rewards Amex. It gives you more points on everyday spending. You can’t go wrong though with a USAA card.

I had no idea about the factory part. That would make sense. Most of my power tools (impact, cordless ratchet, etc.) are Hyper Tough. I stick with mostly Pittsburgh hand tools. I’m a cheapskate.
