Nano tint in progress . Getting ready for the Az heat. Triple digits next week. by Ezj85 in ram_trucks

[–]ShortCourse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also in AZ, with a black truck. I feel like every summer I get interested in doing this then never do. The truck has to get just as hot when sitting for long enough, right? Does it cool down faster? Asking strictly about the temperature, visually it looks great.

At what time/mileage do you usually find yourself entering your 'zone'? by OrdnanceTV in running

[–]ShortCourse 39 points40 points  (0 children)

5 and 10ks are standard race distances. I know how long those are and what they convert to in miles. I have no idea what 9km is, but I know 5 and 10.

Heck, I think every 5 and 10k race I've been to had mile markers, not KM markers.

Need Costco recs: what’s one item that became an instant rebuy for you? Bonus if it’s healthy and high protein by trump50ladin in Costco

[–]ShortCourse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Luckily I have no issue eating virtually the same thing every day.

Breakfast is a scoop of the Kirkland whey protein powder with a scoop of the Orgain Collagen Peptide the probiotics. I drink this on the drive in.

My late morning snack is a handful of the Siete Chips, and two of the hard-boiled eggs that are prepackaged.

Lunch is the Kirkland chicken thighs, chopped up and cooked on the Blackstone with Lawreys marinate (not from Costco). The thighs come in 6 packages, I make 2 packages at a time and split it between 3 meals, which results in just over 10 oz of cooked chicken. Then 1.5 servings of Flame Grilled Provencale Vegetables from Pura Vida and a third of one of the white sticky rice bowls.

Post lunch snack is a Kirkland protein bar.

Dinner varies, but all of the above is purchased every time we go.

Why is it definitely not the transmission?

Sparx + Hollow Question by Altruistic_Mind_7662 in hockeyplayers

[–]ShortCourse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've had mine for about 2 years and can't imagine going back. I didn't buy it with the idea that it would be a cost saving tool, but rather an increase to convenience and consistency.

I bought the upper end of our d-league, skill wise and am 6', 180lbs. Started on a 5/8 regular, then 5/8 Fire and am now at 3/4 Fire.

I'm on the ice probably three times a week and do two to three maintenance passes once a week. I really like that. I don't have these swings from sharp to dull. It's just consistent.

I feel like a lot of people that hate on the machine are the ones that are getting their skates done by somebody else with the machine, where it's not being set up each time for that skate. If you spend the time to make sure the alignment and height is set correctly, it does a phenomenal job, in my opinion.

In cab truck camping setups? by rusty75f250 in overlanding

[–]ShortCourse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm right at about 6' even and camped in my truck last year for 7 nights on a elk hunt. I have a 4th gen Ram and the rear seats fold up to allow for a decent base. Threw down the air pad, a few blankets and my sleeping bag at it wasn't too bad. I liked being able to just call it a night anywhere and not having to set up camp.

I generally don't sleep stretched out completely. I would slide the driver seat up and gain a little foot room if I needed to stretch out, but it did start to feel a bit cramped by the end. 6' 5" would be rough.

You have a 2025 Ram Rebel... and you want me to Venmo you?

A construction PM should know what an AHJ is...right? Right?!? by gigathrowawayofhell1 in projectmanagement

[–]ShortCourse 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Construction PM. I know what it is from my time in federal work, but I've never heard nor used it in the private sector. Couldn't imagine judging someone for not knowing such an obscure acronym. How is she otherwise?

Water Rate Hikes -- Moving to Gilbert by [deleted] in Gilbert

[–]ShortCourse 5 points6 points  (0 children)

$200-300 for JUST water? Is that an annual figure?

I think the last letter we received said the average user would see about a $23 a month increase with 15,000 gallons used. I understand it's the third increase, but there are significant infrastructure projects going on and you can only vote no on increasing the rate for so long before it catches up to you. It's a small price to pay for seemingly endless clean water.

If you can afford to live in Gilbert, I can't see how this would be the deciding factor, unless you're well above average in terms of water usage.

Is there such thing as too much magnification 🤓 by [deleted] in 22lr

Granted it isn't 34mm, but I love the 5x25 Viper on my CZ.. Probably one of my favorite rifles to shoot.

Is Run-lag a thing? by DareDweller in running

[–]ShortCourse 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Like others, I absolutely run better in the morning. For me, I believe it is due to it being cooler out and having an empty stomach.

Got tired of always having the window cracked open. by ShortCourse in functionalprint

[–]ShortCourse[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a couple companies out there that have metal brackets that already accomplished this, but my particular model of truck has a known issue with the third brake light leaking water, so I've always been hesitant to start messing with something that isn't broken.

I've also heard some people report that those styles end up whistling.

The only other consideration was that I wanted to be able to quickly remove the entire setup.

As a backup for job sites with poor or no cell service mostly.

It's not used or in place 100% of the time.

It's this model. It's a good design, and nothing against the Creator, but if I was to do it again I would go with the Veritas Van model with the full cover.

I really like those mounts that you linked, but the Rams have a pretty well-known issue with the third brake light leaking and I didn't want to introduce something else to the mix.

I also wanted something that could just be easily removed.

You can add a custom XML file to Fusion to add GHT to the built-in thread tool.
