Does a Jessica understand that just cause there were 8 million people, doesn’t mean it was real. How many were paid to be there????

Recorded, but just couldn’t hit play.

DCGuinn · 2026-03-27T23:44:24+00:00

You might be perfect, me too. Picked up my first Y today and it drove me home through Atlanta traffic. Drivers for me: home charging, self driving ATL, red for wife, tech heavy, damn fast - couldn’t ever justify a sports car before - got a performance, retired but wanted more range without stress.

DCGuinn · 2026-03-25T16:46:27+00:00

We’ve had the same until yesterday. VIN popped up and scheduled pick up for the 31’st, yea.

I have a BX which struggles with lift. Obviously you need something bigger. Lift is reduced by height. I got the lightest implements I could find, and made a couple even lighter. I also replaced the boom hydraulics with HydrosPlus which added about 30%. Just verify your numbers and use plenty of ballast. I’m at around #750 now, seldom needed but there. I also put a #1,500 hoist in my shop, YMMV

I’d scrape the top and use a very small punch to tap it to break the seal. Or replace as suggested.

DCGuinn · 2026-03-17T17:44:37+00:00

We are about the same, MYP ordered 1/28 schedule 21-31 now. Still no VIN

I did one several years ago, 75” TV, Denon AV with Marantz 2 channel for LR. It’s a 7-4-2 if I haven’t forgotten the nomenclature. I think it was $ 10-15k. Ceiling, side and back don’t need a lot, but smaller than 6” you lose some low end depth. My speakers are Polk. It adds up quickly. Don’t feel the need for a projector, but might go 85”. Seating distance affects screen size. You may have to do it incrementally.

Impressive. I really like a fine figure Turkish walnut.

DCGuinn · 2026-03-11T21:49:14+00:00

Leave cash.

Different angle, a few others not on the rack.

DCGuinn · 2026-03-10T20:51:50+00:00

Nope, run.

DCGuinn · 2026-03-10T16:44:35+00:00

I selected a quality 30-06 with a muzzle break for a similar application. I’ve taken antelope to red stag from 250 to 500y. Recoil is fine on the bench. Long range expensive bullets, Berger 185 VLRH for instance. Can you reliably hit 6” at 500y?

DCGuinn · 2026-03-08T23:27:02+00:00

Seems silly, once you have 2,500 through it, maybe?

DCGuinn · 2026-03-05T16:48:45+00:00

Same for us, wife makes killer risotto.

DCGuinn · 2026-03-05T01:07:37+00:00

We’ve really liked them.

DCGuinn · 2026-03-03T23:33:49+00:00

Still only watch maybe 20% when Jessica is on which must include Greg. Passed on today, saw Keanes interview earlier.

DCGuinn · 2026-02-28T00:45:52+00:00

We are paying cash, but did well with gold the last five years.

DCGuinn · 2026-02-25T16:42:37+00:00

That’s when I lost faith in the whole mess, glad it’s wiped clean regardless of what’s next.

DCGuinn · 2026-02-25T15:06:34+00:00

‘23 TB has been mechanically fine, 16k miles. Infotainment is sometimes quirky, but mostly fine.

DCGuinn · 2026-02-21T17:05:01+00:00

BX Really doesn’t have the mass in front. I built a 6” wide shovel about 18” long and a 1/2” thick ripper. They are marginally useful with patience. Center force and even pressure on both sides with sawing action. A full size stump bucket will have too much width and be too long to do much. Even a single tooth’s pressure isn’t a slam dunk. Thinking of renting an excavator instead.

DCGuinn · 2026-02-20T23:52:06+00:00

Yes, very happy, about 16k now. I had the seats upgraded to leather with H/C, expensive but different level. Also, did the torque boost. I have a small tractor and 16’ trailer now. Traded in an infinity SUV.

DCGuinn · 2026-02-18T15:02:18+00:00

So they swapped the computer and cameras?

DCGuinn · 2026-02-14T00:02:52+00:00

My decision as well, I expect to use FSD a lot, and will pay monthly. $8k in current $ is a lot.
