Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

Not so much. Salt is bad, salt is evil.

 

I used to own a carpet cleaning company. We had full size vans with Yuuuuge engines. I kept my tiny Gooloo charger pack in my car at all times. One cold winter day the van was stone cold dead. I pulled out the gooloo, that sucker fired up as if everything was normal. That surprised the hell out of me and solid me on those little things.
I always neglect mine too, it gets its annual charge. Which reminds me…

 

We use them at work to start 6.7 L power strokes, the trucks have so many powered accessories that there's constant drain even when everything's turned off. So usually if we have a long holiday weekend, we'll have to jump start every single one of them.

Yes, we've asked about battery tenders and no they don't want to buy them

 

Printing presses aren't all that mechanically different than automobiles, only there's more to them meaning more things that can go wrong.

(that's only about 1/3 of the driveshaft, in the video.
Main press clutch is acting up, for what I believe are those 2 wires, hardwired to the inside.
Going to have to tare it apart. yay!

 

I'm in the printing industry also.. We print business forms. RR Donnelley now, but used to be Moore Wallace and Wallace Computer Service before that.

 

I feel your pain!

 

I feel your pain! I'm starting to look forward to retiring from the printing industry in the next 5 years.

 

Are you taking the proceeds from selling the business and opening a campground/orv park?
You could put it in S.W. WI so our southern friends don't have to drive so far.

 

Interesting idea, I'd rather be up north though!

 

At this point, FedEx, USPS and UPS have all lost "rapid" shipping items for me in the last 6 months. No sense in paying for "overnight" or 2-day when it still takes ground shipping or longer times to come, if it comes at all. Two of the times it was a multi-thousand dollar check from an insurance/finance company. Cost me several hours of stressful time dealing with the shipping company and financial houses with no compensation. At this point, save money and ship via ground rates... patience is definitely rewarded.

 

You could call it.

Hey, can we get a mod in here to fix the TACOMAWorld banner image for this thread? That's a funny looking Taco.

Anyone need some new wheels for free?

Not 18's.
I already checked them out.

 

Sure is a wild coincidence that with all of the pictures that get posted around here, the banner vehicle always seems to be a vehicle owned by a certain moderator.

You'd think maybe the OP of the thread would get a chance to have their vehicle as the banner.

 

I've got a better idea....

 

Ditto!
