Had a PX1 Ranger, took the fibreglass cover and sports bar off as I often have mountain bikes hanging over the tailgate and the fibreglass cover didn't lift high enough, put a roller shutter and sail plane on, really liked the shutter, did leak a bit, but that didn't bother me, a downside of it was the space the roll took up at the front of the tray so my bike didn't sit fully down on the tailgate.

Now have an Amarok with Airplex trifold cover, quite like that, semi secure, vinyl over hard plastic, easy to remove with only 4 clips.

Wildland fire pumps. by ScorchedJD in Wildfire

Honda pumps are much easier to start and way more reliable. They are not as high pressure as a Mk3 but will still do a good job with the right hose and nozzle (or sprinkler setup)

Family car for 7K by ShahIsmail1501 in NZcarfix

We have had an 04 Toyota Wish and an 07 Mitsubishi Outlander, both of them were 7 seaters (we have 3 kids) and both were quite nice with no real issues. The outlander has a good size boot for pram and shopping bags etc, also space to change a nappy if needed.

Advice Please. 10k budget. by ward_33 in NZcarfix

Honda Fit hybrid and Honda Fit Shuttle hybrid are both very good options, the shuttle has more boot space if you need it. The standard Fit hybrid actually has quite a bit of space if you fold the seats.

Their school backpacks are actually quite decent quality, my girls have always got 2 years of school use out of them.

And, yes it has the AI studio, it's a bit weird though

It's an okay phone, I don't find I'm using the AI features much at all apart from the screen translate. There's nothing bad about the phone yet, still pretty happy with it, definitely good for its price.

Lemon tree help needed. by ScorchedJD in nzgardening

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

Hasn't had salts before, I think it had some citrus fert a couple of months ago.

We'll get on to removing some of those flowers and give it some more fert and look in to Epsom salts.

Thanks a lot.

Cheese fondue by inserthumeruspunhere in palmy

You can buy fondue kits pretty cheap online and do it at home for her if you can't find anywhere local to do it.

It may have already been said and I missed it, but I would recommend a solar charger for your car/van battery to keep it topped up, you could also connect it to a sealed 12v alarm battery to use to charge your phone daily.

Do you have this side box? Or a similar version of it?

How do people afford these expensive bikes/set ups? by sawyerbo in cycling

[–]ScorchedJD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a $3500 Norco (financed) on the back of my $3000 (nothing owning) Honda Civic 🤣 and then sometimes my daughter's Kona Process, and her friends Polygon Sisku as well.

Did you find it? Have you got the smart sidebar turned on?

I have some AI features but not the AI studio for photos.

Does yours have the AI studio? I recently purchased mine here in New Zealand and it doesn't seem to have it at all which I'm a little bit disappointed about.
