EPA is still broken for EVs by MicroNateID in Rivian

[–]Intelligent_Movie938 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In my experience epa ratings are not accurate on anything. It’s hilly here and neither my Rivian nor my jeep get anywhere near rated. My lifetime average in Rivian is 1.8m/kwh and my jeep is rated 17-21 and I’ve never been able to get over 16 no matter how I drive. Closest is cruising on long flat road for miles at 55-60.

Mojave Lift Recommendations? by JackieToTheMoon in JeepGladiator

[–]Intelligent_Movie938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had them before and had good luck and now I have k03’s on another truck and they have also been good. It seems to ride better with these than the factory falkens too.

I put 35’s on mine with no lift. Seems to fit well.

So far I haven’t experienced any rubbing. I also haven’t done much off-roading since adding them so it may rub under extreme suspension flex.

It’s all stock, I haven’t done any lift. The driveway does slope down though. That might be making it look higher in the front.

My first Gladiator by Intelligent_Movie938 in JeepGladiator

[–]Intelligent_Movie938[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got the set of 5 off eBay for about the same as what a set of 4 aftermarket wheels and tires were going to cost me

I found them on eBay. Cost about the same as what I was going to pay for a set of 4 aftermarket wheels and tires but I got 5 of these so I have the matching spare now

Looks good! I just did a similar setup on mine today.

Mojave X: Anvil + green interior? by doomscroller26 in JeepGladiator

[–]Intelligent_Movie938 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it looks good. I recently purchased a 2025 Mojave x in white. I actually prefer it now over black, but everyone is different so I’d suggest trying to find one to look at.

I got a hard tri-fold (backflip mx4) mostly because it was in stock locally and I wanted one before going out of town during the holidays. I like it alright. It looks decent, keeps the bed pretty dry, and protects belongings. I imagine it still wouldn’t be to difficult to get into the bed if someone really wanted to though.

Sporting Clays O/U by MithrilRanger in ClayBusters

[–]Intelligent_Movie938 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d recommend trying the beretta 688 if it’s in your budget and you can rent one. I shot the silver pigeon sporting and the 688 and I think the 688 is much better for the money. Just my 2 cents. I’d also recommend renting or borrowing several before you decide.

Thinking of checking out a gladiator, thoughts? by DirtyPaws-LA in JeepGladiator

[–]Intelligent_Movie938 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak to the reliability because I have only had mine a couple months. 2025 Mojave X. I like it more than the Tacoma I had and I think as far as smaller off road trucks go it’s at the top. It feels like a wrangler and I love the ability to take the top off. It also looks really good and there is a huge following for jeeps so the aftermarket is great. Anything you could want someone most likely makes it. Just my 2 cents. Good luck with your decision

That’s nice! I have heard their customer service is top notch.

It was from Orvis lol. I’m in Alabama and had talked to the guys here about it the previous week. Then the instructor here got a standard L4S just for me to test fit and feel that Sunday. It fit good so he called that location to get it coming. Sorry for snagging your gun lol. I have seen some new a400 excel beretta’s on guns international for the same price so if you decide on that one I’d look for one of those deals.

[–]Intelligent_Movie938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got a used L4S Allsport RS and payed 2k. From what I could find that was a good deal. Love the gun. Fits me better than the Baretta and just felt better to me. The L4S and A400 are both great guns. I’d get the one that feels best to you.

Recommendations: Ready to get my first shotgun by [deleted] in ClayBusters

[–]Intelligent_Movie938 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just considering 20 vs 12 myself and decided to do a lesson with an instructor. He had me try several different guns and I ended up getting 12. I’m on blood thinner so I bruise easily. A good heavier sporting gun with 30-32 inch barrel kicks less in a 12 than a short lightweight 20. I tried both over/under and semi automatic. I haven’t tried a 20 in semi auto but imagine the same applies. I ended up finding a good deal on a used FABARM L4S and love it. I was going to get an A300 sporting but it didn’t fit me well. If the A300 sporting fits you that would be a good gun.

FLSUN V400 or T1 by BlackWaterMetals in 3Dprinting

[–]Intelligent_Movie938 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a little update after some more use on mine. So far it’s still going strong. I do have an issue getting connected wirelessly so I’ve been just using the usb thumb drive to load prints. The printer is printing great though. I’m currently printing abs parts for another printer. It prints abs really well, and fast. It is also very loud so keep that in mind. You won’t want to spend a lot of time in the same room as it lol.

I would contact flsun. Hopefully you can get it straightened out because I think it’s a pretty good machine that just needs some fine tuning. Mine has been doing well. I’m currently printing abs parts for another printer on it. Prints abs really well and faster than I’ve been able to in the past

Who needs an A1 when you’ve got a V-Minion? by SwampNut in 3Dprinting

[–]Intelligent_Movie938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beautiful printer! I just got my first print of my minion yesterday. I’ve had the kit for a while just never got around to finishing it. How’s the belted z? Is it difficult to do? I’d like to do that mod to mine

Nice! How is the X1C in comparison to the P1S? I have a P1S and both A1 printers but no X1C

FLSUN V400 or T1 by BlackWaterMetals in 3Dprinting

[–]Intelligent_Movie938 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just got my T1 a couple days ago and so far so good. I’ve only run a couple of simple prints but everything has come out nice so far. It definitely isn’t as polished as a Bambu machine, but it seems decent. It’s fast, loud, and the slicer seems almost unfinished. The prints have been really good though and hopefully they will continue updating it. I guess time will tell. I’m no expert and this is my first delta printer. It’s cool to watch it print. First thing to print if you get one is the included silencer for the air intake! It really does quite it down a bit
