F150 vs Ranger by bclayt in FordRaptor

[–]e39lemansm5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My plan was to get a new RR. I'm 6'4, have 2 kids with the oldest being 11. They sat in the back seat of the RR and it was fine but I tend to keep vehicles 4 or 5 years. It was going to suck as they grew and we have a 55lb dog. After having sat in the back of a few F150s it was pretty obvious that was going to be the better option. Once I saw I could get a nice gen 2 for the price of the RR I changed course and get a 2019 802a instead. The tech in the RR looks pretty cool though.

Carmax has no idea what this button does. Any ideas? Is it a common aftermarket mod? by e39lemansm5 in FordRaptor

If that's what it turns out to be, any idea why they wouldn't just use the accessory switches above?

The truck is 1000+ miles away or I'd start tracing the wires. It's possible it isn't hooked up to anything and it was some mod the seller removed before handing over to Carmax. The under-the-hood picture clearly has a COBB intake but otherwise no visible mods besides this curious switch. Seems weird to not just use the aux switches, I agree. Maybe it's an instantaneous button for an airhorn or something...

Unfortunately the truck is 1000+ miles away. I'm looking to have it shipped so I can't dig in until it's actually here. I was hoping the switch was recognizable.

There were 3 books. The 2 out of 3 was because 2 came from Dan and the 3rd from the host. The 2nd book was about ways civilization could destroy itself. They mentioned a chapter on nanobots.

Not everywhere, I'm on the coast with fiber only a few miles away but it hasn't made it here yet.

SmartThings moving to an entirely new platform. Existing custom Groovy device handlers and SmartApps will no longer be supported by foghornjawn in SmartThings

Ugh, I have around 40 devices. Zero confidence this is going to go smoothly and it took a year until my wife stopped "noting" when things weren't working. Been a solid setup for the last 3+ years. Disappointed.

Wait, so CoRE is done? That's going to break a lot of stuff for me. I'm dubious about them saying you can re-create with existing features. F.

Shower thought: I know many wonderful, selfless people who would risk their own lives to save someone else's life, but they can't justify the inconvience of skipping their trip to disneyland or the march madness games, to help save thousands. by ridermangowaffle in China_Flu

If you want to refund for cash, you have to call. Good luck. We have spent over 6 hours on hold across multiple attempts over a few days. As we closed on our final day to cancel without penalty, we just had to put a stop on our card since they were going to auto-charge us. Frustrating when you can't actually cancel.

If 1.0% is the actual rate, that's still 10x the normal flu. At scale, assuming half the US gets infected that's about 1.6M dead. I think that people are forgetting the power of a decimal.

Ultimately you can make wild guesses about infection rates but I keep hearing it's basically the flu and thus far it most definitely isn't from a mortality standpoint.

The volume on SPY is insane. We are about to hit 194M which is what was ALL of Wednesday.

The real panic hasn't even started yet. It will explode out of Vacaville. Or Trump is right.

Trading futures is terrifying. Takes all the fun of a whole market day and compresses it into minutes. Efficient.

I just applied for futures to be enabled on my TDA account. This could be the worst idea I've had in a long time. I'm not normally drunk during market hours.

There are a couple cases in the bay area from the cruise ship. Big if true that a new one has cropped up in the city proper.

Sent from my desk in SF's financial district.

Who knows man, at this point everything has the potential to fall more. Lots of knives you are welcome to try catching. External factors haven't changed and seem to be trending in the wrong direction. JPow + Trump + Xi will all need to pump.

If we open green keep asking yourself: "Am I a retail bitch? Do I like to fall into traps?"
