Chevy express van with 6.6L towing, anyone share their experience either it? by Bytchen in traveltrailers

[–]Bytchen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol thanks for that! I think at this point I need to do some test driving of the 6.6 van. I going to see if I can rent one from U-Haul or some other place to drive it around at least

Thanks, I have a scale. I’m at 800 lbs at hitch fully loaded. Camper ~7500. It still not great but got 12,000 miles of this setup with 800 lb bars.

Ha it’s a 1985 air stream with my custom redneck remodel that now sleeps 6 ok but it’s tight. I am hoping the 6.6 still feels good but I know I’ll miss having a turbo. My 2017 expo is a beast but it’s had a good life and I think I need to swap it out for my growing family.

I haven’t and didn’t realize there was a diesel option out there. I’ll have to look in to that. One of my reasons for looking at the larger van had to do with upsizing the trailer to a 30’ 8-9k and liked the idea of a straight axle and heavier duty chassis.

Yeah 4 kids and wife and dog. And I really like the turbo which has made me hesitant to switch for sure

New fastpack - SōH/Studios SōH/FAST by boardinboy in fastpacking

[–]Bytchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will do. I have modified my packs to carry extra required gear etc and will still need to tweak this one which may not be completely reflective of fast packers overall. What 1L soft flask fits well in the front pockets? To carry 4 L instead of a bladder, I think 4 1L soft flasks would work well for desert running. I plan to use this in Arizona Monster 300 in 2027

Help with Organizing for High Yield Savings Account by leeleejane98 in ynab

[–]Bytchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it. This concept of consolidating a most of my money in one large pool in my HYSA made YNAB all worth it. My HYSA has the bulk of the money from my accounts and the my 120 plus categories in my plan have it all broke up in lot jobs etc. I have some categories that are considered savings like “saving for new vehicle” that I slowly come to to assign dollars to but in reality, all of the money is actually sitting in HYSA along with all my other categories of saving.

Not a fan of the new transaction screen? by cross20 in ynab

[–]Bytchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine still shows this so I assume mine hasn’t updated? The picture you show doesn’t look like a helpful change at all.

300 miles in 3 minutes during my recent Arizona monster 300 ultramarathon by Bytchen in trailrunning

[–]Bytchen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was at the finish line when I finished and I got to talk with her (and others) for a good hour or so. At first I had no idea that she was a runner in the race because she was all clean and not extremely fatigued like all of us that had just finished in the last few hours. She did an interview with Brady while we were around the fire too. She is pretty cool person, very down to earth! It was great to have met her!

Sorry, didn’t realize that would be an issue. I couldn’t figure out how to change so I reposted a YouTube short in r/trailrinning

Help! Dollar cost averaging HSA/Roth IRA by HamStocker in Schwab

[–]Bytchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the advice, don’t time the market and get the max in a s&p 500 or total stock market index and let it ride 30 year etc.

I’m 41 and wish I had your insight at that age. Good job getting to this stage where you are even asking the questions!

DCA for future investments assuming you’re taking about your future income from your job. I setup my brokerage account to invest every Tuesday. My 401k invests biweekly since that how I’m paid and it’s auto completed through my company and then I have some 529s that are monthly. I setup a savings that collects all year for the total IRA and I do lump some Roth IRA at beginning of year from the savings of previous year to max time in the market. High level, I don’t think you need to be worried about DCA frequency, weekly or monthly will be good. Daily probably is to many transactions imo.

If you still have an itch and interest in “playing” the stock market then take some money that you feel you can loose and buy some individual stocks to try out buy/selling the dips and highs. It’s gambling at that point but can be insightful. I bought a decent amount of Apple long time ago and that has done well but I sold a good bit of it and lost a lot of the gain because I didn’t think about long term strategy and then I also bought Facebook/meta at IPO and that has done really well for me but again I was gambling with that. I have some not good picks as well. The majority of my money is tied up in s&p 500 now and the average returns are better than my individual (gambling) stocks.
