    [NA] Toyota Tundras

    Nissan pulled the plug on the Titan. It's done after 2024 I believe. They are sticking with the "midsized" Frontier.

    [NA] Toyota Tundras

    Currently driving a 2014 silverado I bought new. Starting to think about replacement and I have been eyeing the Tundra. I'm interested to here your feedback. I have heard frustrations with the mpg and the fuel tank size. That's about it so far for issues after they got past the first hiccup on a...

    Gila Bend, AZ Plane Down - 1 dead, 1 injured

    From my experience watching them land at Oshkosh... They are hauling! Every time I've watched them I remark that the landing looks frightening and FAST. It could just be perception though compared to the other craft on the ultralight strip.

    Cessna down after stalling on take off

    I know a CFI that was flying with another student that opened the door on a long final and demonstrated that you can yaw a Cessna with the door. He was crazy but spent his life crop dusting. He was exactly who I wanted to teach me "stay alive" flying. I went elsewhere for the "by the book" stuff.

    GPT - 15 Months Later

    I've been dabbling with it. I used it to scrub the internet to find some vacation destinations on a trip I have coming up. I don't take it as gospel but it is a good starting point. For work right now I am writing a ton of new SOP's and procedures. It sometimes gives me a good starting point...

    Is this legal???

    Considering you can actually see through the goggles it would be no different than looking at an Ipad. An argument could be made that its safer. I haven't worn one in person just watched the promo video. I'm not defending it but I believe foreflight already released an app to work with them.

    Workshop insulation

    There are parts of the country that would call 32 quite comfortable. Spend some time at zero and you look at cold in a whole different light. Parts of Montana in the winter would call zero a heat wave.....

    What is Going on at KBJC (Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport)/Cost to Relocate Port a Port Hangar

    They just moved a MASSIVE hangar @ KDSM this year or last. All in one piece. These smaller hangars should be able to be braced internally and jacked up. Set it on a flatbed and roll across the airport. Have you tried contacting the manufacture of the building? Probably not the first time this...

    Does anybody make use of CB radios or GMR ass in their vehicles on trips

    I've started playing around with GMRS out in Utah. My intention is the fact that I regularly leave cell coverage camping and hunting. Baefang GMRS radios are inexpensive and work well. UV-5G is the easiest and cheapest option for you.

    tonneau covers

    Sorry! But I went full paint matched fiberglass topper a bit ago. It works better for the bird dog in his kennel. It is a bigger PITA to take off to put the pickup camper in though...

    tonneau covers

    My buddy sells them. I've had an Access Cover brand from him and wouldn't buy anything else in the roll up market.

    Ercoupe down Corning IA

    I'm sure someone can pull the runway data but if I recall correctly from the last time I was in there, it slopes to the south. That would reduce takeoff performance some especially in an aircraft that could be experiencing some performance issues.

    Thoughts on First Plane Purchase

    If you don’t need to fill the backseats you have legroom that only Shaq could fill. My mooney has a new prop so now AD. They are a little narrow in the elbow and I had to adjust how I sat compared to the Cherokee I flew before but I find it comfortable. I’m 6’2” and 185lbs. I did look at...
