I have always loved driving through newly constructed neighborhoods; This 55+ community is built by Toll Brothers and located in Hilltown Township (Perkasie)...



I stopped and chatted with some residents who were walking their dogs and found out the following...

• These homes have electric heat pumps with propane backup (presumably because it’s practically in the middle of nowhere and it wasn’t cost effective to run public gas lines).
• Most of these homes do not have basements (uncommon with new construction homes in this area).
• It apparently costs sixty grand (US$60,000) to get a basement!

 

When I was like six years old riding with my dad in the 1993 Chevy Blazer, this was one of my jams!

 

Some of the crew at Coach’s, my favorite place to go for lunch; From right to left, we have Tim (assistant manager), Pat (owner), Sam (Pat’s fiancée); And in the background manning the grill, we have Conor...

 

This Acura has been sitting in the parking lot next across Printers Alley from Puck for a couple days now; I have a feeling alcohol was involved...

 

Spotted a McLaren P1 in Doylestown...

 

Best Buy in Montgomeryville still selling stuff through “contactless pickup”; I’m guessing the bright green Jeep pulling the trailer is picking up a large TV or kitchen appliance of some sort...

 

Almost empty shopping center...

 

Likely Best Buy employees parked over there...

 

For some reason, I highly doubt it...

 

Propane is very common in my area, the local schools have massive tanks, must take many truckloads to refill them.

 

china maybe? a large part of asia is occupied by china

 

Ouch, you are probably correct.

 

Looked up Unit 731; Run by the Japanese but located in China...

If you look up "War Atrocities" that's probably what you will find!

 

Nanking massacre.

 

I’ve never heard it called that...

 

It’s also called the Rape of Nanking

Sorry to change the subject back to Tacomas, but if it's not one thing it's another (at least with my stereo)...

So, I got the Bluetooth fixed (which the result of me plugging to cables into the wrong places; My fault ) and the obnoxious issue of the speakers random cutting out as well (the result of a connector under the hood being jarred loose, likely from hitting a pothole); The stereo itself works fine, and give current situation (Coronavirus for anyone reading this years from now), I likely will not be screwing with it in the near future despite the issue I'm just about mention...

Now, there seems to be excessive crackling from the passenger side speakers that comes and goes...



It could be that an issue with the crossover, or the one of the speakers could be blown (or just worn out). The specific system is a JBL GTO GT609C component system that I bought on Amazon for like $86 before tax; As of right now, they sound great except for the intermittent crackling!

 

As of right now, it only seems to do it with older songs (as in ones that were originally recorded in mono; From day one, certain songs were always a bit scratchy). Well, as of right now, unlike the Bluetooth and the backup camera, I don't need the speakers to be 100%; There are another three things working against the prompt repair/replacement of the speaker(s)...

• It's a bitch to get the door panels off!
• I don't feel like spending money on a speakers right now!
• The truck does not need a functioning stereo to pass inspection!
