    Good morning everybody. One step closer to Friday. My area got off pretty easy with the weather. Decent amount of rain yesterday but nothing to get too excited about. No storm damage close to my house but some trees limbs down noted on my way in to work this morning and some crap washed out onto the roads.

    good to know

    new house came with a 22kw runs the same way yours does

    Wasn’t sure how old it was but hour meter is up to about 40,000....seems like a crazy amount, so I’ve been taking good care of her. Ran for 7-8 days already in the last 3 months

    I'm in Arkansas looking at a 4Runner for sale in Philly. Can anyone recommend a good shop who could go to the seller (used car dealer) and do an inspection?

    Here is an interesting odometer reading!

    Props to Jerry for some good ideas on removing my rear drums today. How could I forget about the really big hammer idea. Once again, and as it often is... BFH for the win!

    Mine got treated but didn't have perforation; My dealer says that if my frame rots out before a certain time (2022...?) they'll deal with Toyota and do their best to get me a new one...?

    My record for driving non-stop was 425 miles from Bristol Tennessee to Carlisle Pa In March two years ago. This was after I installed the LRA 34gal fuel tank. I had to pee so bad it was ridiculous. :oops:
    That’s next level shit from what I have but whatever works right? :oops:
    We got a nice amount of raid from it and didn’t lose power. Lucked out this time. :)
    I’m Very close to there. I’m in Somerton almost every day.
    PM me the details. I’m not an expert mechanic but I do know my way around a Toyota. :D

    I am loosely starting to look into whole house backup systems. What brands do you guys have? Thanks.

    edit: Also, it would be 20kW or 20,000W. 20,000kW is 20 megawatts. Below is a 4,000kW (4MW) Cat generator. I believe I've heard this Cat to be the largest diesel mobile generator in the industry. They bring these to power plants on 18-wheelers during maintenance outages to run equipment. You should see a 800MW generator. (EE, 13 years in the power industry) :cheers:

    Then provide power for your neighbors

    Ooops, sorry. Blame it on a lack of coffee. Mine is a 20kw. The first we had was an Onan which has now been bought out by Cummins. The new one is a Briggs and Stratton.

    And, good morning fellow Pennsyltuckyvanians!! Live it large!!
