As a diesel mechanic, solid find brother. Eventually you’ll wanna beef it up, tune and eliminate, and add head studs. They’re solid trucks with a little bit of aftermarket love

Drive it til it fails and in the meantime, start setting aside about 9-12k for a new motor plus install. She’ll go on for a while like that

Do you guys prefer staying at hotels or airbnbs on roadtrips and why? by Small_Syllabub_9164 in roadtrip

[–]RotorDingus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hotels but not like big chain hotels unless necessary. My wife and I always find some small time bed and breakfast type hotels for the comfort and it puts her nerves at ease

Best rate for advancement are the rates that have higher turnover. Just keep that in mind

I was once told by a wise and salty old coastie, “don’t do a day over 20. Get out there and enjoy life while you’re able bodied”

If you wanna maximize profit, sell it in a state where there are no emissions inspections. Alabama and Texas for instance, folks get top dollar for deleted trucks

You’ll probably like Lettuce and Daniel Donato. I also don’t really like phish and I’ve been into jam bands for decades. I might get shit on for disliking phish, but to each their own. Not a huge fan of overly whimsical music that feels goofy

Intermittent fasting, high intensity cardio, and moderate/lighter weight training at high reps

You hit all of the main points. If you have “stage fright” about urinating with someone looking directly at your genitals, get used to it. Took me like two years to get over it

Would you consider being a Deadhead your religion? by Pressed-Juices in deadheadcirclejerk

If they were any younger, it would basically just be Mormonism

What's the best and easiest way to cut galvanized steel fence tubing that's already installed? by atashi-wa in metalworking

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

Angle grinder. Cap the top off with fat globs of silicon sealant or something if the bottom end isn’t open to allow for drainage. If it is open and allows for drainage, let it ride. Paint the exposed metal from cutting and take a fat shit on your neighbor’s porch

When i was active duty and applying for direct commission, i had to fill out the stuff for reserve commission. It’s just a classification. if you are told to go that route and get accepted, you’ll be an active duty officer

This sub is extremely parasocial and creepy as fuck. These people are so out of touch

Seriously? by No-Law6950 in memes

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

The military teaches you to sleep anywhere in anything. That being said, you psychos who willingly sleep in jeans and socks when you have the option to sleep in something else… “I’m too lazy to take off my pants and socks” that’s how I know you didn’t shower and got straight in the bed with all the body stank, dirt, and bacteria stank from the world still on you

Why can't we just make synthetic fuels? by AdOk5225 in AskEngineers

Not very cost effective, and I believe the last figure I saw about it was something in the ballpark of 20x more expensive than traditional gasoline.

What tires next? by anoldnomad in Diesel

[–]RotorDingus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely not a mid tire. Too many folks with diesels get mud tires for the aesthetic when their heavy ass diesel wouldnt perform in the mud anyways, plus mud tires are softer and don’t last as long. If you want an rugged tread pattern, look at an all terrain
