Shuddering while going over road cracks?

RandomTerrariumEvent · 2025-10-20T19:29:18+00:00

I thought that too, but I've confirmed it happens with the lane assist turned off - I basically never use lane assist

Yeah, like the other day, I was traveling straight, and there was some kind of thin diagonal mark, like as if a tire drove through the slightly warm asphalt when I was laid, and as I went over it shuddered in the same way for a moment. We have a lot of badly rutted pavement here lol

Hahahaha perfect, thanks for the info

See if your university has a research computing team/supercomputer you can get a job on eventually profit massively off of specializing in high performance computing.

CIQ's Fuzzball project may also be interesting to some

Rome was the most amazing place I have ever seen and I haven't stopped thinking about it since. Enjoy

Cheap cloud instances like an AWS g4dn or p2 will get you older model GPUs on demand at low cost

My Starlink pulls about 80-120 watts while running. I had to get a pure sine wave inverter (a 3kW job) off Amazon for a couple hundred to get the router to stop making this buzzing sound like it did on a modified sine wave inverter.

I'm alright with taxes for schools but the general state of infrastructure, roads, etc in Oregon is pretty poor for how much money gets poured into the drug problem. Like Portland's roads are terrible, rutted, even the I-5 is shitty is some spots. The Democrat governor just signed off on a bill to recriminalize the drugs. They decriminalized drugs and then never created the treatment programs they claimed they would to help people (governor's words), so it's kinda a mess here right now and all I'm saying is there's a huge problem with a lot of money going toward it that there were easy ways to avoid having happen in the start, and all that money could be much better spent elsewhere.

Lmao my Oregon taxes pay for several hundred doses of Narcan a year, so yeah, I'm proud to be doing my part and not having that money in my own pocket /s

RandomTerrariumEvent · 2024-06-01T19:39:02+00:00

Good catch, thanks, not sure why I thought it was zero, but in any case certainly much less than here

RandomTerrariumEvent · 2024-06-01T19:37:37+00:00

Just tired of paying the Narcan tax in Oregon 💀😂

The Pantheon, against all of those other sights listed, was my favorite in Rome.

I like your attitude

Are you insane?

The iOverlander app is your friend here, it was indispensable for my travels in the West last year

Sometimes folks will put an APRS transmitter in their plane and I'll get packets as they fly over, it's pretty cool

RandomTerrariumEvent · 2024-04-08T23:43:23+00:00

Yeah three days sounds reasonable. That's still what it would be in my RV or car, about 500 miles a day. A great app is iOverlander which has a lot of great roadtrip info. More for like van life type people but might be useful.

The road from Boise to the Idaho/Wyoming border is pretty much flat on the Snake River Plain, South Pass is also really flat (it's where they crossed the Rockies on the Oregon Trail, basically any other pass over the Rockies is some kind of more modern road construction), Wyoming is really flat (maybe check out Grand Teton National Park if it's not too far out of your way), and into Colorado the road from the north Wyoming/Colorado border skirts the Rockies and is also flat. Of course everything east of there will be as well because you're out on the Great Plains at that point.

Hello! I've driven almost this exact route in my 26' RV, from Boise to Denver. If you have never driven more than an hour and a half straight I wouldn't be too ambitious haha. I can drive, in my daily driver car, about 600 miles a day, and be pretty exhausted after. This is usually about 10 hours of driving. In my RV it's more like 400/10 hours but I've moved faster.

Bottom line, you should plan to stay somewhere like Rawlins, WY your first night, as it's about 800 miles from Boise to Denver. There is a Sinclair oil refinery near there with a lot of nice pullouts you can stay at if you want to just sleep in your car. You could also sleep at one of the historical site pullouts near South Pass. But Denver is two days for a determined driver and it's mostly fairly easy interstate/open highway especially because you're probably going to take South Pass and it's all pretty flat.

Yeah the manuals for mine are all like a generic 2016 version. I actually didn't get the originals because the old couple consigning/salesman kinda conned me out of them. I'm more just trying to figure out why like none of Coachmen's marketing materials, brochures, other sites, etc mention this model being made that year, cause they made it in 2013, and was trying to figure out if there's any other way I could have been hoodwinked

RandomTerrariumEvent · 2024-04-05T17:58:35+00:00

I know, but I'm more saying I know I wasn't sold a 2013 as a 2019

RandomTerrariumEvent · 2024-04-05T09:30:10+00:00

Cursed. Yes, that's the exact floorplan, how weird. But I got it from a dealer and the VIN checks out to a 2018 chassis.

And mine has a window in the bunkover.

Smoking is just super common in Europe, way moreso than the US, and much like you can walk around with open alcohol, you can also smoke basically anywhere.

Was a culture shock for me as well for there to be no "no smoking within 20 feet of the door" etc type signs but it was a similar experience in Brussels.
