    I was at 7.5 before turning west last time. Then the wind just blew almost head on for 1700 miles.

    To each his own. However, I think I would have asked Santa for something other than emergency guide booklet.

    Seems a combination of small generator, battery charger, and a couple extra deep cycle batteries would be best. The problem with the gas generators over 4000, they start using a lot more gas. Powering a/c is the problem. The diesel bunk heaters only burn a gallon every 10 hours or so. Same with the coolant heaters. Kind of hard to beat that deal. Just got done running around to 5 different stores. I was missing the eyelets on one kit, Got some heavy duty shrink wrap at Home Depot. Napa’s closed and the others are useless.

    Me.......well I'm rocking 8.8 mostly because I don't go to unfriendly weather places. Nor very hilly places.
    That said, I'm sure I'm not making as much money, but I'm rocking 8.8.
    So, I've got that going for me.

    The Final Hunt for DB Cooper is on.

    The OM thinks it will reveal the true identity of Cooper as Opus.

    I'm better looking, plus, I would have been about 11 when the deal went down.
    But, I appreciate the thought.

    This is also the reason that I would like to get a Listeroid. Tho the listeroid wouldnt look good on the back of a truck to make power. Imagine the ruckus of a driver having a 10 kw genset on their cat walk that is bigger than a refrigerator (for just the engine) and it weighs almost 4000#.

    A4A4AF31-B408-4C15-B64B-10D1009F72F5.png I decided to get pizza. Had 3 pieces. I literally felt like I’d smoked a joint afterwards. An hour later I ate a 4th pc, Now I’m all relaxed again. I think I may be an addict. Jets Detroit style deep dish pizza. Some good pizza.
