    Looks to be just an average winter day in WY... Visibility looked not too bad from your pic... That and wind are the 2 biggest things that will shut it down there, beside idiots wrecking that is.

    Tanks are equalized because if one has more than the other it will hurt their self esteem.

    You need premium vehicles. They make more credits. The Russian guy who created this game, is a billionaire. Like 4 years ago he hit that mark. Lots of people spending little money adds up.

    Granted what's a good wage for a Russian programmer? 30k??? That's enough money for a pet cougar.

    You could get sexy security guard too.

    Just got a reminder of the ease of Ram heaven. Flatbed delivering here and I’m watching him roll up his tarps while the forklift sets the pallets outside. Did I mention 20 -25 mph winds.

    Since they did away with the old pick up crossover line on the bottom, in the late nineties. The new design is a siphon system. Ideally both feed lines are the same length, and diameter, and run in a constant rise to the Fuel shutoff valve, without any low spots, that water can collect in, and freeze, or high spots that air can get into, and break the siphon. then the one supply line, mounted to the highest point on the valve, goes to the engine. The return line has a splitter valve, and is split evenly, by the valve, and returned to each tank.

    The shutoff valve on mine, has 3 settings. Left, right, and both. The fuel gauge is in the left tank. Once I ran out of fuel, parked on an entrance ramp. All my fuel went into the right tank. I switched it to right tank only, primed the filters, and drove about 50 miles to get fuel. I’m guessing you want avoid what happened last week, while parked on the hill. You lost the siphon from one tank. Systems working right. Just leveled out, because you weren’t parked level, one went lower.

    Neutral location too. Just tanks, no L or R side anymore.
