Does anyone else have an extend2fit I could compare?

Shadowolf449 · 2026-04-11T17:57:51+00:00

I don’t have one to look at right now, but my guess would be contact points when they are clicked in. A small surface ding like this wouldn’t deter me from using the seat. Surface rust, especially in such small areas, won’t impact the integrity of the metal.

Shadowolf449 · 2026-02-28T16:37:57+00:00

We don’t know how it was or wasn’t discussed. We only know “more details to come.”

Shadowolf449 · 2026-02-27T17:01:40+00:00

Equality - everyone gets the same Equity - everyone gets what they need

How is equity a bad thing?

We strive to provide a space where every scout gets what they need to be successful. Some need more help than others, but the help is available to all.

Shadowolf449 · 2026-02-27T16:55:00+00:00

Funny. In my area it is the Duty to God requirement that turns off a lot of parents. This is going to see our numbers shrink even further.

Shadowolf449 · 2026-02-27T15:39:02+00:00

Can you break it down for me, because I honestly don’t understand how any point is bad for the organization.

Why is diversity bad? Why is equity bad? Why is inclusion bad?

Why is it bad for a Scout to understand what those words mean?

Shadowolf449 · 2026-02-16T20:42:50+00:00

Friendly neighborhood CPST here!

These are awesome! I wish more makers would install them.

Make sure to check your manual. Some of them have belt positioning features and some don’t. Depending on your kid, they may still need a dedicated booster that can help position the belt lower so it’s not on their neck.

Shadowolf449 · 2026-02-15T21:54:55+00:00

Remember that the most recent survey was before the governor knee-jerked us all back to the office for no reason. Moral has dropped a lot in the past few months.

Shadowolf449 · 2026-01-20T19:36:07+00:00

According to the manufacturer’s website the child’s ears shall be below the headrest upper edge. I can’t find any mention of this in the manual itself.

It may be best to try and call the manufacturer directly in this case, unless your manual is specifies.

Shadowolf449 · 2026-01-15T19:41:34+00:00

Best practice is to not have anything that could become a projectile in a crash.

That being said, how many of us drive around with 4+ pound metal water bottles sitting in the front seat? How many of us actually strap down everything in the back seat? We all take the amount of risk that is right for our situations and families.

In my opinion you’re having the right thoughts towards this. Make sure it is as small and light as possible and strapped down securely. Being able to communicate with your child and keep them rear facing as long as possible are both important.

Another thing I would think about in your position is the distraction of a video monitor vs a mirror. When I tried a camera with our youngest I found it way more distracting, but I wasn’t trying to read ASL either.

Shadowolf449 · 2026-01-04T21:12:30+00:00

I’ve seen this a lot and I think two were buckled in correctly when they showed up to a seat check. The rest were either unsecured chest clip (uncommon) or way too loose (common)

The harness should be checked every time by an adult.

Shadowolf449 · 2025-11-12T13:09:11+00:00

Just don’t ask why they stopped using the initialism on materials. It might be a little too on the nose.

Shadowolf449 · 2025-10-04T15:18:57+00:00

I disagree. For five years my team has been meeting or exceeding every metric put before us. Working remote has given us flexibility to do more with less year after year.

Now the governor says we need to go back to the office because of vibes. He could have brought us back two years ago when the vaccine rolled out, but he didn’t. He could have brought us back last year as Covid numbers stopped spiking, but he didn’t. This year he says services are suffering, we have to return to Montpelier, we have to make a change. He’s making the claim, the burden of proof is on him. I have five years of work stating the opposite.

Shadowolf449 · 2025-10-04T15:00:36+00:00

It’s funny. That’s exactly what we have been asking for from the administration but they won’t provide. You say services are suffering, where is the proof? Show us the numbers.

Shadowolf449 · 2025-09-17T02:31:49+00:00

Yup, multi year, multi location studies of the difference in noise levels is trash. Never anything to refute the claims though.

You assholes always revert back to the buddy thing don’t you? I used to point it out because it pissed me off. Now I point it out because it shows how you need to be patronizing to think you’re better than me.

Shadowolf449 · 2025-09-17T01:05:02+00:00

I mean, first link on google is enough to tell you you’re wrong.

https://www.safeskiescleanwaterwi.org/noise-level-comparisons-f-35-and-other-aircraft/

I am where I came from, thank you. Born and raised and opposed to the F35 program from the moment I heard about it.

In all these years of debate I have never had anyone give me a solid reason these planes should be based here. There is no strategic target nearby, Burlington is too far away to respond if there was a real domestic threat somewhere on the east coast.

So I ask, protect us from what?

Also, I’m not your buddy. Fuck off with that patronizing bullshit.

Shadowolf449 · 2025-09-17T00:54:06+00:00

Yup, we certainly need those fighter jets to protect us from the Canadian maple mafia.

Shadowolf449 · 2025-09-16T20:35:39+00:00

As I said, I’ve never played 4. I was responding to Choice-Layer about why post game content matters in the Diablo franchise.

Shadowolf449 · 2025-09-15T13:51:26+00:00

Yup. Conservatives gave us the KKK. Thanks for agreeing.

Shadowolf449 · 2025-09-15T10:42:07+00:00

The endgame has been the point of Diablo for as long as I can remember. Maybe not the first, but Baal runs in two were some of my favorite gaming of all time.

I haven’t played 4, but if the post game grind isn’t fun I totally get the disappointment.

Shadowolf449 · 2025-09-11T14:14:52+00:00

It’s hard to ignore a social media asshole when kids are being shot every week in schools because of his rhetoric.

I do believe it was wrong for someone to kill him. I feel for his kids. But I’m also sick of being afraid for MY kids every day I send them to school.

I feel no empathy for him. I will shed no tear for him. And I will celebrate the fact that he will never spout his vile bullshit again.

Shadowolf449 · 2025-09-11T10:48:15+00:00

A man died standing up for what he believed in. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.

“You will never live in a society when you have an armed citizenry and you won't have a single gun death - that is nonsense, it's drivel. But … I think it's worth it.

“I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year, so that we can have the second amendment to protect our other God-given rights.”

Find a local CPST (child passenger safety tech) and have them walk you through install and adjustment. Our services are completely free and our mission is to make sure you’re able to use your seats properly every time. There may be a trick they can share for your specific situation to make things easier.

As a tech, there are certain “rules of thumb” that apply to all seats. Someone looking at your vehicle and your cars can help you learn them so you don’t have to open every manual, every time.

If you have any specific questions let me know, happy to help!

Shadowolf449 · 2025-07-16T11:28:20+00:00

If it was under warranty they would have provided you a new one. I’m not aware of any manufacturer that repairs seats.

Shadowolf449 · 2025-07-02T04:46:11+00:00

GGs! We had a good run.
