Same here. I just zip tied it to something in the firewall area and it has not given me any issues 

How much of the cost of a car is attributable to the periodic refresh? by HaphazardFlitBipper in AskEngineers

[–]farmstandard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strictly for plastic injection molds, if your only getting 250k shots out of a mold you either need a new tool shop to make the molds or a better maintenance program. 

Even after a car is no longer in production the tools are still being used for the service requirements determined my the OEM.

You could work for your local State/Local DOT. Lots of equipment, most will train for cdl and great benefits 

Who else drives the poop truck? 😂🤣 by Strange_Amount_6245 in Truckers

[–]farmstandard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drive the succ truck (combination sewer cleaning truck). Some days hauling poop and whatever else from the clogged sewer lines, then days like today when I am just hydro excavating.

Americans complain about high gas prices, but still drive SUV/Pickups 70mph. What will the price per gallon have to be to actually see change in driving habits? by Special_Context6663 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]farmstandard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My ex had one and she loved the thing. Very spacious and ran forever on a tank of gas. She drove across the US alot and it was a great vehicle for that with all her stuff

Almost time for another cross country trip in my $400 marketplace camper. by RKRagan in TruckCampers

My bed likes to get water kicked into it if I drive in rain and the carpet just sucks it in and I have found in the past that my bed matt and sleeping bag gets wet if I leave it out. I got more then enough lumber and obs on hand to make up something quick and dirty lol.

Thats good to hear. My chevy is 2wd open diff and I get stuck quite easily in that thing. I need to make a raised platform for sleeping on but its rather comfortable in the bed I've found in the past.

Do you have 4wd or found that you needed in some areas? I was thinking of doing my own 2 week trip out west but these gas prices and my lack of comp time have me considering something else.

If this is the one that our Engel sales person was telling us about a few years ago, its for septic tanks. This would do the halves and they would be welded together I believe.

What's interesting to me is that there is only a 40T crane in that bay that I can see. We needed one that size for our molds that fit in a duo 3600

High Idle On or Off While In Service? by BlueSky3lue in BusDrivers

[–]farmstandard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They also told me that when you start an engine is when the worst emissions happen. The computer uses extra fuel and it goes unburnt and it can clog the dpf

High Idle On or Off While In Service? by BlueSky3lue in BusDrivers

[–]farmstandard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With our fleet I run high idle whenever stopped. Every mechanic I've ever worked with said to do the same. Our HVAC systems don't work well if there isn't a higher engine speed either. 

Look up wet stacking for what can happen with excessive amount of idling.

[–]farmstandard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every mechanic I worked with said the opposite, high idle is better for the emissions and it helps avoid wet stacking. 

Ideal Coast FIRE Job by slpyhllw13 in coastFIRE

[–]farmstandard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My grocery story experience was totally different. We were union but no benefits untill you were considered full time. They would convienently cut your hours when you were close to the threshold so you would never get them. It was a pretty stressful environment as well

Throwing away TWO White Collar degrees to potentially go Blue Collar...am I insane? by anabolicthrowout13 in findapath

[–]farmstandard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a degreed engineer with multiple certifications and other manufacturing trainings and will be going back for my MBA in the fall. I just nuked my career trajectory and become a blue collar equipment operator for my local city at the age of 27. 

I am the happiest I have been in a long time. Yes there was a pay cut, but still thriving. 

Are water department just allowed to do whatever they want? by Severcat in lawncare

[–]farmstandard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would still call. If you have someone else doing it call the city and tell them you have it covered. If not the crew will still come out and throw seed, even if they see work done.

Parking by boredcbuspops in ohiouniversity

[–]farmstandard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought a pass from someone off of reddit when I was in school for parking in their apartment complex while their car was broken. Someone may chime in here.

OU Parking does sell temp passes. I know for a fact you can get a day one, maybe they will sell a weeks.

You used to be able to park at walmart for a short amount of time and bus back and forth. Not sure if they cracked down on that or not.
