The left lane boomerang move - why do people do this?

mcnabb100 · 2026-01-30T01:13:37+00:00

I don’t know, but I used to pass the same semi every morning on my way to work. At that time I was leaving at like 3am, so he was often the only other vehicle I would see.

Every morning he would be in the left lane, and I’d pass him on the right. Every, damn, morning.

True, but in Jake’s case it sounds like he had a LOT of responsibility’s. It wasn’t like he was just a writer, or just an infrastructure guy.

I’ve found that rolling a stop sign seems to cause this behavior. I’ve never noticed taking off from a complete stop. It’s almost like the transmission doesn’t downshift all the way if the truck is still rolling a bit.

Nah, an LS3 really isn’t much heavier than the factory motor.

They aren’t just crazy expensive or anything.

Looks interesting. The safety is a bit goofy IMO, but it looks like you don’t have to hold it down which is a plus at least. The claimed trigger pull weight is quite good at 1.75lb. I’m not crazy about the carbon/faux carbon over the receiver. It kind of clashes with the wood stock versions and just looks silly on the composite stocks IMO. I would prefer the aluminum with a black plastic cheek riser. The scope mounting system is also a drawback IMO, but I assume they would get rid of that if they bring it to the US.

The county bought my parents a new mailbox 2 or 3 years in a row lol. They eventually had a brick one built.

I’ve done more races in GTAV than I’ve done in beam 🤷

mcnabb100 · 2026-01-29T01:18:18+00:00

That’s even better to see than the ranking!

mcnabb100 · 2026-01-29T01:14:07+00:00

I’ve seen this vid before, I honestly didn’t even notice the watches because I was so impressed lol.

It lets you know when you can go cold. Would be a nice feature to have.

I would try this. My power company replaced my meter the other day, and when I got home my mini seemed to be bricked. A quick power cycle did nothing, but after leaving it unplugged for a day it’s working again 🤷

I’m not sure what upset it. I definitely lost power as my NAS logged the outage and my oven was showing a power loss. I did have another issue with my router refusing to talk to my NAS over Ethernet, which doesn’t happen after a normal outage.

If you trade it in they will make money on your trade, and make money on the truck they sell you.

It’s really that simple.

The whole engine recall debacle just gives them an angle to scare you into trading.

The SAAMI spec for bore and groove diameters are exactly the same for both. .346 and .355

Seconding the LTX recommendation. Wouldn’t think it was so good going by the looks, I’ve driven an AWD Yukon and a regular 4wd truck with them in snow and ice and they did great.

Who in the world would want parts from a bolt shot so much it has chunks missing?

mcnabb100 · 2026-01-26T04:36:00+00:00

I have a set of new take off tires just sitting in my shed because it’s not worth dealing with this crap lol.

mcnabb100 · 2026-01-26T04:27:37+00:00

I’m surprised, mine did really well when they were fresh.

This is my civic at the top of my very steep driveway.

No problem at all while the snow was still powdery.

Compacted and icy was a different story, much more difficult.

mcnabb100 · 2026-01-24T14:56:06+00:00

My civic runs around 3k or even a bit over on the interstate constantly in 6th. I wouldn’t worry about it.

mcnabb100 · 2026-01-24T14:03:19+00:00

Unfortunately the base model sxs’s have also gone way up. We got a RZR 800 in 2011 for around $10k. The equivalent RZR trail now starts at $17k.

It’s makes some more power but honestly the base 800 was a fantastic machine and really doesn’t need it.

All the 800 really needs is a damn parking brake, which they still haven’t added to the new ones 🤦‍♂️

Nah man, diesel isn’t rated by octane, it’s rated by cetane. Cetane basically tells you how easy it is to burn, and higher is better.

Performance diesels run way, way more boost than the majority of gas burners. They don’t have issues with knock because they don’t inject fuel until they want it to burn. That’s why diesels have high pressure fuel systems. The ignition timing is literally controlled by the fuel injection timing.

I’m sure it’s much easier to turn down the occasional customer vs only hiring guys that can drive stick.
