Re: Dino juice v Electrons....
According to this 60% of all electricity in the U.S.A comes from coal and natural gas and only 20% comes from renewables. When you charge an electric vehicle battery from the largest source of electricity which is natural gas and coal that natural gas and coal is also gone forever. https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/electricity/electricity-in-the-us.php341Views0likes0CommentsBaggage Door Catch
One of my baggage door catches broke so I'm going to buy some new ones. The old ones are plastic and if I buy the spring loaded type they will be stainless. The new ones have the holes on a 3/4" center and my old ones are on a 1" center. I guess I'll have to mount them in a different spot and fill the old holes up with silicone if I go that route. Another option I have is to go with the magnetic catches. Those of you who have had both, which ones do you prefer? Will one magnetic catch hold a fairly large door open?1.7KViews0likes4CommentsRe: back to gas v diesel
If I were to buy a new truck it would have to be a 7.3. My 5th wheel weighs about 8,000 lb. unloaded and I have no plans of getting anything bigger. I have a 6.2 with a 6 speed right now and it's not too bad but it could be better. If it had a 10 speed I think it would much better than it is right now.367Views0likes0CommentsRe: 2011 F250 Steering
I wouldn't think it's worn out after only 55,000 miles but anything is possible. I don't want to even think about a $2,000 repair bill. I'll get under it and try to see if anything is loose. It does have a stabilizer and I have bought a new one that I'll install soon.648Views0likes0CommentsRe: 2011 F250 Steering

Has anybody else had a problem like this with their Super Duty? 2WD or 4WD ? It's a 4WD and it has the snow plow package with the heavy front springs. Everything seems to work fine except I have to bring it back to center myself.650Views0likes0Comments
