1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Man the old IDIs were just not worth it. Maybe back when diesel was cheaper than gasoline, but shit they make no power, the 390 or the 460 gassers made much more power than either the 6.9 or the 7.3 IDI. Even the early turbo IDIs were plain gutless.

 

Doesn't the IDI have a cult following in the prepper world?

 

But it sounds like a school bus, isn't that worth something?

 

Crypto is the new Ponzi, hawk tuah girl made out like a bandit.

 

One must first recognize that there is no logic in this place

 

Valid
They do be buying ridiculous shit like those vehicle EMP protector boxes lmao

 

Yeah she did...I don't claim to know anything about crypto but I kinda have a hard time feeling sorry for those that she pulled the rug out on. It had to be somewhat obvious in hindsight

 

Or this kid: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/12/teen-creates-memecoin-dumps-it-and-earns-50000/

 

Pretty much any newly launched coin is a rug pull scheme now.

 

Or... nvm I don't want to get banned

 

We know, everyone knows... you could literally just say "he" did it and we'd all instantly know.

 

Do you guys know anybody who has installed EMP protection devices in their vehicles?

 

I try not to hang out with people who think they'd need something like that and especially not ones who aren't smart enough to know that wouldn't work.

 

100% a scam
Its really a beautiful scam, as it can only be proven to all that its a scam when the world ends

Theres a guy around here that was pushing them in an EMP resilience thread, unsurprisingly you can also find that guy in the banned memorial thread for political reasons lmao

 

Sell the camper, have a cool old truck for driving around town. But I already have an old truck to drive around town so I'll just have to pass on it.

And the van is plenty fast for me

 

Hmm...maybe I need to start getting my 5 year old interested in crypto

 

The only safe investment is in buying, rehabilitating, and reselling rusty Land Cruisers.

 

Who needs gas pumps anyway?

 

I’m just hoping the head gasket isn’t blown so I can at least get most of my money back for it. The cooling system holds pressure, but I’m still seeing bubbles in the overflow reservoir. I’m praying that’s just the system burping itself. It also is running very smooth with no overheating since I replaced the radiator cap. It’s like Schrodinger’s blow head gasket, idk what to think.

 

Rent one of these and test it: https://www.autozone.com/test-scan-...ls-engine-combustion-leak-detector/391378_0_0

Have to buy the fluid separate, but the tool is a free rental

Or just sell it without knowing, sometimes it easier on the conscience if you don't actually know if theres anything wrong with it yk
