    Wind deflector

    U could possibly run a section of awning track across leading edge of roof and go to a shop that makes tarps for big trucks. Give them your dimensions and have them sew in a rib to slide in track that u installed on roof. Along bottom of tarp have them install eyelets that u can lash to hooks...

    Diesel fuel #2

    Ultra Low Sulfur #2 diesel which I believe is the law of the land for on-hwy use has been used for years longer in European countries than the US. So, all the European engine manufactures such as Mercedes have developed their products to run fine on it. Since sulfur was used for its lubricity...

    Aspiring Minimalist, getting stuck on keeping items just in case.

    My problem is I know I have the item I need in stock in my shop. But I can’t remember where I put said item. So I run out and buy new and then a week later find what I had previously been looking for. I need to have a sale and start over. It’s hell getting old!

    Social security

    We actually agree about something 😁. Also, we have no say in whether our current or former employers switch to new 401k investment companies. I had a sizable loss when this happened as my original fund was doing quite well but the new Investment company dumped me in a mediocre pool.

    I have become jaded. As I feel we r doomed and until a total collapse and a reset I have little hope. I read a book by Tom Clancy years ago in which a mentally insane pilot flew a 747 into the Capitol building during the state of the union address killing all but the Vice President who then had...

    Cargo trailer + truck advice

    Good idea on shutting down A/C when the temp goes up above normal since the condenser sits in front of the radiator and the cooling system has to overcome the additional heat being drawn thru the radiator from the hot condenser. I also shut off radio on steep grades so I can hear the clutch fan...
