    I like it that way, too. Honestly, that longer taper to the rear when it's closed up should be more aerodynamic, too. Like an airplane wing - tapered to the rear. I think it looks good.

    Anyone know a way to get ahold of Department of Unemployment? I started weekly apps almost 8 weeks ago and it still says active issues after I've faxed everything in. Call ques are always full when i try to call and ask, in person services are unavailable too.

    Good Morning TW,

    I just moved my family down from Seattle just over a month ago. I am new to the area (bought in Maricopa). On the way down I noticed my front end get louder. Are there any shops down here that replace wheel bearings that y'all would recommend?

    Thank you for your suggestions.

    Mike

    From what I've read, you just have to keep calling until you can get in. I had issues as well, I ended up resubmitting the claim and it worked. The whole thing is fucked and they're swamped.

    Camped 3 nights in Alpine this weekend. I stayed pretty warm in 40 degree temps. That’s about as cold as I typically camp. I bought a Mr. Buddy just in case but it was useless. Made the thing uncomfortably hot in 30 seconds. It was also super windy one of the nights and the tent seemed to hold up well. Felt sturdy and comfortable

    My parents casita hahahaha, Im serious though, feels weird to say Im moving back in with my parents at 38 years old but its an incredible opportunity. Its temporary until I find a new house. I want to close, pay some bills, pay off the Taco and then start seriously looking. My goal is to wait for a mid-mod house thats done already or mid century house that I can renovate. Im looking under 400 which likely means itll be a project so I might be living in Cave Creek for a few months unfortunately. Mostly looking in the central corridor; coronado, uptown, sunnyslope. Possibly Arcadia lite, Id love to be there but what you get for the money is such crap and true Arcadia is out of my price range.

    Quite possibly, though I didn't notice anything.

    Congrats on the house contract man. Good timing!

    I've ridden 40 miles in the last 4 days, so I have definitely been out and about.

    I normally do two weekly rides, Thursday night and Sunday mornings, if you're interested in that!

    So my sweet new fridge killed my battery :rofl: I put the cutoff on medium (11.2v) to see how long it would run on my lead acid battery. Not surprisingly it cutoff after a few hours or so. I took the fridge back out and cut the power to the bed. Truck was sluggish to start on my way to work. And just now I went to move it and it wouldn’t start without a jump.

    problem is I’ve had analysis paralysis on how to power it. I was gonna copy my buddy with the Off Grid Engineering dual battery system with two group 35 agm batteries (60 amp hours each). But then I saw they have the option for the REDARC which doesn’t require the Aux battery to match the starter battery. Or do I just get one group 31 agm which is 100 amp hours? If I’m gonna leave a fridge in full time I really think I should have a dedicated house battery. And the redundancy is good for peace of mind. But I need to decide now.
