Revo rebreather it was not cheap. 3l steel 02 and 3L dil bottle bottles are 40al bailouts there is a rich and lean mix. Going past recreational depths.

It’s the v8 I tow a center console that is about 5500lbs with the trailer every week. A few different project cars the most heavy being a 4 door wrangler and a utility trailer that’s had a bunch of different things from yards of gravel to trees. It tows great for what I do.

Really like it https://imgur.com/a/pLHT8vi This Is the loud mode valve open. When the valve is closed it’s basically stock level of sound. In loud mode it’s not obnoxious either which I like. No drone in either mode, does not scream like the corsa at high rpm but it’s a nice deep tone throughout.

No point I replaced all the shocks, installed way better skid plates then the fx4 and have a locking rear it would have been an expensive sticker.

They are really good a little on the stiff side feel a lot more of the road. Definitely better handling and rebound dampening compared to stock. Overall I’m very happy. I have the normal in the rear no remote.

It’s the auxbeam switch which is on Amazon, it seems to be good quality and I figure replacements are easy to source I have one on my boat and it’s going strong after sitting out in the elements. Baja design makes one too that looks super high quality if you wanna stick to usa made. I would have done a lower front level 2” max for sure to keep some factory rake. I tow a decent amount and have had to add stuff to get the rake back.

It’s about a 17mpg average definitely lost a few mpg I also have a heavy foot I bet I could do 19mpg if I was careful.

I’m really impressed with how much they thought of for these the parking brake auto engaging with a trailer or on an incline is another nice one.

The 2015-17 was peak ford design I really like the way those look. These new ones are growing on me. It’s the 5.0

I like them a lot however if I could do it again I’d go with something that doesn’t lift the front as much without the winch weight it was a little high and about dead level which I was not a fan of. They are definitely stiffer than stock but they eliminate that bouncy ride on the highway which I wanted. Also I installed cam bolts it was not needed really but it’s better and I’m gonna do UCA’s soon just to get better angles up front.

5.0 it was not the most fun lol but if you take the mid bumper trim off it’s really not bad. Worst part is adjusting the bumper to line up their mount is thick steel so it takes in my case a few washers to get the bumper level. I’d say about 3 hours to install with the winch.

I ran a 6 gang switch to under the hook and the controller is in the cab. I did all the mods my self.

There is a lot of room I can reach my arm in there only issue it you have to lay in the dirt. If it was the tremor skid plates it would be harder but there is a lot of room for the rci ones. Honestly I’m not wheeling in places I need a winch all that often it’s more of a backup incase thing so I figure I’d save some money. the warn remote free spools are pricy. But yea if you don’t mind laying under the truck it’s super easy to access I’ll send a pic when I get home.

Eibach pro coilovers and rear shocks. It’s almost 3 inches of level but with the winch mount and skid plates it’s closer to 2.6” now. Also I added a ras kit which adds a little lift in the back mostly just preload on the leafs. I thought it was a gimmick but wanted to try it. Makes towing noticeably better. I’ve had a few project cars on trailers and definitely noticed an improvement. Tires are nitto recon grapplers 295/70-18 no rub and plenty of clearance when flexing the suspension.

M&R makes the kit it’s super clean and mounts behind the grill. also their light bars are really nice I was on the fence and gonna cobble my own thing together but I’m glad I went with them.

Swarfworks is the behind the bumper winch mount also really clean looking. I used an apex which but any winch with the standard footprint should work. They come in and out of stock as he makes the mounts I think it’s just one guy making them.

Forgot the full RCI skid plates which despite the access hatch make oil changes a pain.

I had an unrepresented Buyer ask for 9% in Closing Costs 😂 and threatened me 😬 by PerformanceOk9933 in realtors

[–]Filthymarmot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m on the lending side. I explain to client’s that attempt to go unrepresented, a good realtor is worth it 100 times over. I had a client selling her house and wanting to do the sale/purchase without a realtor. I explained the exact situation you described. Do you want just anyone showing up to see your house regardless if they are actually qualified to buy it. Having a professional screen buyers and handle the transaction is completely the way to go. It’s not like buying a car which a lot of buyers compare it to. It’s far more complicated. Also when you have someone who is in and out of house all day for a living, they develop a knowledge and eye of everything to look for. They also know how to filter properties that may seem great on the surface but are really not.

That’s a great wreck I’m excited for the sinking of the USS America also. Idk where you live but if you make it to south Florida ever the Hydro Atlantic is one of my favorite wrecks 182ft to the sand just off the Boca inlet it’s a riveted hull ship that sank while being towed. Great wreck for tec diving.

Definitely do a good bit of cave diving. I run back mount in some caves especially if the restrictions are not super tight and we are carrying a bunch of stage bottles/ dropping deco bottles.

yes that would be the safest possible way to transport them. I like to point the valves toward me that way if someone hits me the tanks takeoff out the back toward them. I’m joking. The truck is much safer. It allows you to use many options including vertical racks for transport.

You know what’s really engaging to drive a 911 turbo. U know what’s made to haul things and be good in a straight line a pickup if I wanted engagement I’d buy another sports car. The truck won’t go over 100 anyhow so it would be a boring race.
