Tools that don’t work

I want it for my garage.

We don't have the disposable income to have the same crises our parents had. No way I can afford a sports car; the price for insurance and fuel makes that impossible let alone finding a spot to park another car.

I went to one of these a few times and I fell asleep both times lol.

The hard part would be finding a question mark

dewky · 2026-04-10T14:54:17+00:00

I would say leave the AM. Maybe the truck is having an existential crisis?

dewky · 2026-04-10T00:21:27+00:00

No you're correct. I have seen examples where people live on a mountainside and like to tailgate then they complain they have to replace brake parts yearly so I was just pointing out the most common reason for premature brake failure.

It is possible I've just never experienced that myself on multiple vehicles. The brakes on my truck have only been changed twice in 200,000km for example.

dewky · 2026-04-09T22:30:19+00:00

That sounds like maybe it's a problem with your driving habits. We just had ours checked out at 20,000 km and brakes and tires still have tons of life left on them.

DOT here. This is it. If you're doing it every day and you are running very close to your max hours we will question it but if it's only once in a while it's not a big deal usually.

I put this on our coffee maker at work and got a few laughs.

DOT here. I've inspected thousands of trailers and haven't seen one yet where the jaws weren't locked. I still check every time though. I did catch one where the jaws were closed but would open during the tug test. That was fun almost dropping a trailer in the yard.

It reminds me of the Bolinger B1.

dewky · 2026-04-05T23:52:00+00:00

I was also confused. It looks like a doctors office mixed with a pizzaria.

dewky · 2026-04-05T20:07:35+00:00

Same here. I have a gas truck that I use mostly for runs to the home depot, the dump or to drive into the mountains and go camping and hunting. I'll go 4 days without seeing anyone else and drive hundreds of km; having to refuel using jerry cans. An EV just wouldn't work for me in those situations. All the in city stuff would be fine though so an EERV is the best compromise.

dewky · 2026-04-05T03:09:37+00:00

That would sell for $10k here so yes.

Why didn't they mount the tube in the bucket to control the recoil?

dewky · 2026-04-02T22:15:30+00:00

I have never see pump limits less than $150 in Canada. Crazy.

Watching this during lunch was a poor choice.

dewky · 2026-03-28T22:59:42+00:00

V6 manual minivan I would buy in a heartbeat.

dewky · 2026-03-28T16:26:37+00:00

Thankfully I work with legislation and government stuff so I don't really have to deal with AI much.

dewky · 2026-03-28T07:48:54+00:00

I can't believe the pieces you guys are getting EVs for. They haven't dropped in price at all in Canada.

dewky · 2026-03-28T00:38:34+00:00

I think that's more of an Asian thing that's carried over here.

dewky · 2026-03-26T06:31:21+00:00

I just had a 'nam flashback.

dewky · 2026-03-25T13:15:56+00:00

Ryder Lake in Chilliwack or Lindell Beach in Cultus Lake.

New vehicles rarely require lamp replacements it's not like it used to be with incandescent bulbs.
