    Two quickies... :D

    The first one should net me 5hp and 1-2mpg at least :muscleflexing:

    Purchased from @Coupe (quality product, and I think he may have a couple left)...

    ...and the second one is just replacing a broken 'prop-rod' holder (the little clip in the rail) on my ArmorFlex bed cover. So, apparently the OE plastic clips breaking off is a known problem to the MFR. They sent out a couple of 'updated' clips to replace the broken one; they are soft and rubbery instead of hard plastic. Less likely to break off when removing the prop-rod, but it'll be interesting to see if the soft material retains the rod when bouncing around off road :cool:

    I have a @Coupe battery holder on my Tacoma. Such a good quality product. I’ve had it a few years now and it looks as good as new.

    Functionally I don’t see how that would make a difference.

    Again, don’t see how that will change the functionality of the sway bar.

    I have a retraxx tonneau cover and it takes up some space because it’s retractable. Well I found the perfect bed storage at Home Depot today that fits underneath and holds all my recovery gear and my towing equipment. I think it’s great for $27.00.

    Curious. Lotus isn't what it used to be, for starters I hear the Emira is far easier to get in and out of. But for the money, why this over a Porsche 718 Cayman GTS?

    Not a thing wrong with Porsche. I think the new Lotus took the car world by storm last year and the US market appears to be receiving them finally. It's new and apparently dialed in. That said, the 718 is a fantastic car and I'd happily drive one.

    i am on the opposite side of you. Thank you for posting that Starlink opinion. I am in St. Pete right now but moving to the sticks with no internet or anything. I will be ordering Starlink here shortly as I WFH and that is my only concern. I am looking at nomad as a backup.

    Happened during my beach excursion on Sunday, but my 4Hi light just flashes and doesn't engage. I did the reverse and forward dance, with no change, then shut it off in 4Hi and started the truck after waiting a bit. Saw the 4Hi light on but it wasn't actually in 4WD. The diff actuator has already been replaced once a while back. Grrrrrrr.

    How is that illegally parked? You have DV plates.

    So unless it's a federal or state building, something like that, I can park with "DV" only however if they're not such places then by law I need to take a doctor's note and register it at the DMV for the specific handicap wheel chair icon for special plates.
    And honestly, if there's spots I wouldn't abuse it but here I am lol

    Old Town. 35m west of Gainesville. I was shocked at the lack of cell/internet up there, but very pleased with distance a $ goes.
