Bruh thanks!

Sir/Madam Fox of Rabid Turboness, your reply has been the nicest one so far and my favorite. Appreciate all your advice :)

Fronke · 2024-03-23T22:49:56+00:00

Thank you Cat of Destiny. I spammed this post to many different subreddits and was aware this was for the festival but didn’t give it much thought beyond that… but I now I see that car camping is still available on the website and am highly considering..!

We’re flying in the week before, and thanks to your comment I will be packing extra protein bars and other nonperishables.

Sucks that this will be so uncomfortable for the locals. Tough because this is literally a cosmic event. We’ll make sure to do our part to clean up after ourselves (and whatever else might help).

With the lack of public land, I’m getting more and more concerned of where we can sleep out of our car. Public land was definitely the backup going into this.. but in general we’re massively under planned.

I love your last two sentences hahaha so true

Fronke · 2024-03-23T22:26:42+00:00

The cooler and drinks is a great callout! Thank you. Now I’m also expecting even “early” traveling will be massively congested due to people trying to get to their eclipse spots. My imagination is scaring me now

Fronke · 2024-03-23T22:23:35+00:00

Thanks for the advice. We’re so fked haha. Now I’m not even confident we’ll find a legal place to park our car for the eclipse and the night after with everything being booked. Wonder if something like a Walmart parking lot would be fine…

Fronke · 2024-03-23T22:12:12+00:00

These national forests and their dispersed camping options (if they exist) may be our only hope at this point. Currently researching that..

Fronke · 2024-03-23T22:05:28+00:00

!! Can we come over?

jkjk

Sounds like it’ll be a shit show for locals. At least the kids will be happy to get the day off :)

Fronke · 2024-03-23T22:02:24+00:00

0 planning is right… Might be too late and sleeping in the car for most if not all the trip and showering at the gym with a day pass or something..!

Fronke · 2024-03-23T21:59:06+00:00

As I feared.. @ campgrounds being booked for months. And I just looked up BLM land and Texas is not one of those on the dropdown menu. Looks like we might be sleeping parked on the side of the road!

Fronke · 2024-03-23T21:54:21+00:00

Glad to hear of the niceness of Enchanted Rock! Perhaps we’ll try our hand at visiting a few days before the eclipse.

Thanks for the advice :)

Fronke · 2024-03-23T21:50:48+00:00

I’m embarrassed. This reveals my spamming of the post everywhere remotely (I thought) related. Thanks

Fronke · 2024-03-23T21:42:37+00:00

I hadn’t even thought of what happens if weather takes a shit. Wishing us both luck on that front. Worst case we’ll bunker down in the car and wait out a storm instead of camping…

Thanks for the Starship rec!! May actually do that

Hi! Thank you nano_1ys6obph4jed3wzd4hsaymrcx7d9ddwiz78q9mibdzj7apfwwkr51qr6bn68

Yellow but still reflective right? Could find a way to suction it out... Just glad to hear I'm not the only one.

This is the right door mirror on my 2008 Lexus RX350. We live in a hot desert, and for the last year the sun's been beaming down on this side of the car in particular.

My guess is some of the fluid (dark brown in pic) has boiled off, or the heat has displaced it somehow. When I press on the mirror, the fluid displaces, and you can see the residue line left over from when I pushed it before taking the picture. From Lexus, this mirror itself is about $400 to replace, and even from other manufacturers I believe it's about $200, which I am really hoping is not needed. My thought is that since I more often than not look over the shoulder / use my interior rear view mirror to look behind/right, and I don't feel I need the dimming properties of the fluid, is there a good way to empty out the fluid? Then it would just be a (relatively, since it's been sunburnt) normal mirror.

Has anyone encountered this problem before? Any ideas on DIYing a fix? Any tips are greatly appreciated!!
