    Definitely appreciate the heads up then. Wifey loves to use the skinny pedal... then again she's slowed down tremendously since upgrading to a bigger vehicle lol

    Yeah especially US 220 from Roanoke to Greensboro. Most people up there come down to the boro every now and then for the larger airport and shopping, as thats two things RVA lacks.

    Funny you mentioned the Switch; I'm on puppy duty (she's passed out next to me) so I'm playing Zelda; Breath of the Wild

    20220522_183538.jpg

    I had put an hour of gameplay into it, then deleted it? Must've been just as I was moving.

    Starting new again.

    Kennel training is key. As ours got older they no longer needed a kennel in the house but they still respond to the kennel command and go and sit where the kennels used to be. Very handy.

    Any gotchas with buying a used ScanGauge?

    One just popped up in the local B/S/T thread: 37611

    Also accepting compelling reasons I should get an UltraGauge instead... from what I can tell the only meaningful differences are form factor and price.

    Should work fine, it's a good deal for a SGII. The Ultra displays more info on the screen without having to scroll through options, but I wanted the SG because of it's slimmer profile. Already have a boost gauge and an AFR gauge and wanted something a little less conspicuous. For most though I'd recommend the Ultra for better bang for the buck.

    For that price though I'd grab it if it's available

    Uhh as long as it plugs in and works it should be fine.

    The UG screen is much easier to read but the SG2 is a good product

    Absolutely!

    She's super easy on car rides.

    And last night, was the first night we put her in her crate and she didn't whine once. Today was the first time she voluntarily walked in it. She's taking to training so quickly and easily.

    If I had to do it over again, probably would've gone with the UG. SG does the job but the UG has a much nicer display.

    Mounted mine here using a RAM mount setup.

    Shes getting there. She knows when the kong toy comes out to head to the crate. Still working on associating actions with words such as outside/inside, crate, get off, etc.

    By far one of my best online finds yet. I’m building a home theatre and found these in-wall Snell Acoustics speakers on Facebook for $100. Brand new, only installed to test fit.

    I didn’t realize what I had till I got home and realized they retailed for $1,100 each. What’s even crazier is I looked up the name and address on the 2003 shipping label and it turns out it belonged to a famous Percussionist, and the address led to a $14.5 million dollar mansion in the Hollywood hills.

    It’s all in a TIG welded aluminum enclosure too. Very well made.

    Poking away at little stuff. Cut and bent the crawl box shifter so grabbing 2nd gear doesn't pop the case into neutral. Changed the oil in both cases.

    Did some math and have a guess to why I am still puking hydraulic fluid, my ram is 14oz or so of displacement and my new resi is like 24 oz so fill level matters quite a bit.
