I don't think you are guaranteed to have aspie kids. Probably likely tho.

 

Is your wife on the spectrum?

 

She would have to be to understand my curious ways, wouldn't she Charlie? Lol.

In fact, she doesn't always understand my quirks, but she puts up with them anyways.

One good thing about being friends with other Aspies is that their parents understand you...

My friend Doug's parents had their heat pump replaced back in 2010...

The outgoing unit was a late 1990s Trane XE1000 Weathertron 5-ton heat pump, matched up with the house's original 1987 Trane air handler...



Manufactured in October 1998, but not installed at my friend's house until the summer of 1999. The house's original late 1980s Trane XE 900 heat pump (identical to this one but a 9 SEER instead of a 10 SEER) suffered a compressor failure in the middle of a record heat wave, so the XE1000 was installed as a drop-in replacement...


My friend's parents let me tear the old beast apart before the company that installed new system took it away!

 

Charlie, changed my start up screen today, think I need to get a t-shirt made with this on it.

 

Totally!

How did you do that anyway?

@Plain Jane Taco changed his startup screen to Storm Trooper helmet...

I think the new Pioneer head unit I'm getting has something like this...

 

I followed instructions on Tacomaworld but basically:

1. Took a completely empty usb drive and made a folder “StartupImage” and put the jpg file in there

2. Put in the USB port, started the car, and went to (a) apps (b) setup (c) general settings (d) customize startup, and then it asks if you want upload. I hit “yes” and it was automatic. Hit ok and all done. Photos below:

 

Did Pat do anything with the startup screen in his truck?

 

Not yet, just showed him this afternoon so think he’ll be doing it soon.

 

Is Pat on TW?

 

@PennSilverTaco Do you have any pics of air cooled VWs?

 

Pictures of air-cooled VWs? I have pictures my uncle took of me driving his '71 Bus!

 

@booted

I tagged you in the pictures of my uncle's two VW Buses!

 

No, he likes to wear tin hats and hide from online forums... just kidding,he’s too lazy to deal with it. I’ll try to get him to join. Again...

I took them all during a trip to visit family in Monterey, California last October...
