RE: Stored diesel question

I routinely use diesel that is over 3 years old.
My neighbor used diesel fuel that was over 10 years old. Make sure it is filtered and dry.

RE: 2019–20 CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC POSTINGS

Chief Science Officer for Pfizer Says "Second Wave" Faked on False-Positive COVID Tests, "Pandemic is Over"
Chief science officer for Pfizer says "second wave" Faked........
Very interesting what a former Pfizer Chief Science officer has to say about fake and false data. I agree with the Chief Science officer that it looks like sloppy science to me.

BCSNOB are you a doctor like the guy on the YT video?
If not, your just some guy on a RV site giving your opinion. Nothing wrong with that. But it is what it it as they say.

RE: 2019–20 CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC POSTINGS

The problem here is evaluation of information. In this day and age of the internet a huge amount of information is available and it is incumbent on us to evaluate that information. You can have a preconceived opinion and easily find supporting "evidence."
You're exactly correct. You may have a preconceived opinion on this and don't even recognize it.
Here is a peer review study about gaiters from Duke
This is a peer review study that shows gaiters don't even work but are in fact, according to this peer review study more dangerous to wear.
I choose to believe peer review studies like this one.

RE: 2019–20 CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC POSTINGS

HEADS UP!!!! The youtube video was from March, 2020. We have learned a lot since then. Please post as current info as possible. Thank you.
Mod this video was made last month. Does that fit your criteria better?
This video shows how a mask handles a vape aerosol (many, many, many, many magnitudes larger than a CV virus or the water vapor it can hitch hike on).
Aerosol breath water vapor is much small and will hitch hike on air currents and float around for many minutes in a room.
It doesn't take much grey matter to see how good of a job a mask will do under these conditions.

RE: Garrett turbo files for bankruptcy

So will the liability go back to Honeywell if Garrett goes bust?
Really good question.
I worked as a contractor in the 80's for Dow Chemical and when we stripped asbestos back then they told us that Dow Chemical owned that asbestos for life. It was trucked to a HW dump around Redding Ca. They said if it had to be moved for some reason Dow Chemical was responsible for the bill........for life. :E

RE: Rivian 1/2 ton high temp, grade test. Good read/video

The article you linked to says 9%. You said 15%? 9% is a whole lot different than 15%. Which is it?
As i mentioned the link provided is for 2019. Google the 2020 numbers and you’ll see the estimates for 2020.( the year isn’t over). Some higher than 15 some lower. Depends if they were written pre or post pandemic. Happy googling.
So you're stating things that didn't even happen yet? :S :S :R :R
From what I Googled EV sales have dropped in 2020 not increased.

RE: Garrett turbo files for bankruptcy

Ben: they said they aren't selling enough turbos because of CV19? I haven't kept up on auto sales with turbos so I don't know if that's a BS story or not?

I didn't see this one coming.
I hope they can hold it together and get back on their feet again. They make great turbos.

RE: Peak Blue Platinum DEF

The legally required MSDS says the contents are water and Urea (31-32%) period no secret stuff which would not have to be detailed but would have to be listed some way. As for synthethic Urea, it's all synthethic I doubt anyone is extracting urea from cow urine for example.
Exactly!!! it HAS to be 31-32. You can't just willy nilly add something to it or it would not be DEF anymore.

RE: Peak Blue Platinum DEF

Top fuel racing is very expensive. John Force blows up a lot of engines and needs more money from Peak.
What a genius way of doing it!! The only thing it costs Peak was a few more drops of ink on the box! Well played Peak!

RE: 2019–20 CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC POSTINGS

Missteps by the scientists or editorial changes imposed by political appointees? No way for the public to know for certain.
Ya, no really good way to tell.
No really good way to tell why Fauci flip flopped on the mask issue either?
Wearing a mask might make people feel a little better............ but it's not providing the perfect protection...........and often there are unintended consequences...........

RE: Are truck/trailer rims a weak link?

There's plenty of stuff I spend time worrying about. This isn't it. The wheels are much stronger than the tires around them.That's exactly what I was thinking also, but the OP has already broken 3 (or more). That is beyond an anomaly.
I don't normally rock crawl when I tow my trailer!
Aluminum is a poor material when it comes to using it in extreme conditions for rims. Magneesium is even worse.

RE: Tesla Semi truck unveil & test ride set for Oct 26th !

After the factory is built in TX.
And when do "YOU" think that will happen? Not when Tusk or Tesla or anybody else say it will happen but YOU.
IOW's when are we going to see a Tesla Semi going 500 miles/ charge with (Tusk said more but 500 will do for me) 80K on board? Oh and cost 250K?
Give me a date.

RE: Tesla Semi truck unveil & test ride set for Oct 26th !

The time frame on the Semi has always been guidance from Tesla. Not me. You still cannot get that through your shell I see.
I have always stated as my opinion, I would expect some delays.
Now tell us about that BK that was filed last year due to the crushing debt you kept talking about.
Or is Elon still in jail from the SEC complaint you and Ben kept talking about?
Where are all your buddies from SA? Need to get some of that humor posted again.
Tusk states Tesla single digits away from death.
Would you look at that Time. Single digits away from death.
Anyhoo, so when do "YOU" say the Semi is coming out. Because "YOU" said there would be a few running around at the end of last year. Where are they?
