1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Yeah with those giant ass tires I think he was the only who safely could, rest of us would've gone head over heels if we'd tried

 

My battery died while I was listening to the radio outside a Concentra office. Luckily it was near a Home Depot so I went in a bought this

Worked like a charm and saved me the trouble of finding a jump so now I just keep it in the back. Going to get one for my wife's Rav4 too.

 

We have one of these smaller ones I keep in my wife's Rav4, it's come in handy for her a few times back when she had her older Honda Accord. I went to use it last weekend when my truck's battery was dead but we hadn't charged it in so long that it was too low to use. I had to use my jumper cables like a poor person.

I would definitely want something bigger like the one you got for a larger SUV/truck though.

 

I need something like this because the stupid charging port on my phones always stops working after a year or so. LG, Samsung and now my Google Pixel...all have done it.

It still 'works' but the tiniest bump will cause it to stop charging, it's annoying AF. Replaced the cord at least a half dozen times

 

We have the same thing. Got it at Costco a few years back. It didn't have enough juice to start the truck with a bad battery but works like a champ normally. I defiantly want to get the one @se7enine posted.

 

Looks like a lot of fun. I need to make a swing by MOAB next year. I was only something like 3 hours from it in July.

finally going to pull the trigger on ob2 reader and a new deck plate since i lost it lmfao. So far im thinking trans temp, oil temp, voltage. What other things you all monitor, and why?

 

Can't monitor oil temp on these trucks I don't think, unless you install a sensor for it

No need to monitor trans temp on a manual trans, there's no sensor for it anyhow. Only on autos

 

A new rear view mirror, so you can watch yourself King

 

shite, so what it the gauge on the cluster for? I want more accurate reading of that

 

Water/coolant temp

 

So, Costco doesn't have the Interstate battery in stock for her car.

I've used Duralast before, and never had to get one replaced.

Napa uses a 'Legend' named battery that apparently has great reviews.

Advanced Auto uses Diehard.

I think I rather have slightly longer free replacement (something like 2-3 years) and a shorter warranty overall versus a longer warranty (for defective battery) with shorter free replacement (12-18 months).

What say you gents?

 

ahhh so id want to read that, voltage, and hmm

 

man i feel so dumb but this joke keeps going over my head (

 

I just got the O'reilley house brand, I already forgot what it's called. I'm sure it's just a rebranded DieHard or Interstate or something.

Its lasted 5 days so far...for what that's worth lol

 

Duralast AGM batteries are made by Deka, I like those

 

I have intake air temp showing on mine, not that it really matters all that much. But its kind of like a poor man's outside temp gauge. It's usually about 5 - 10˚ warmer than whatever the outside temp is
