Bonus points for the random ass screw that definitely won't leak every time we get a heavy rain.

*sigh*

The drip edge isn't very effective if there's a hole every two feet in it and it's pinned tight to the gutter.

It would probably be an easier decision if we could use it during the summer, but I leave the cover closed to keep it clean and that also results in 90f water in the middle of the summer; hard pass.

It's also about $25-50 every month for chemicals; and that's year round whether we use it or not.

You pretty well only see it for people who are pushing snow, but big tractors use weights all the time to add traction. It's not unheard of for modern big tractors to be ballasted to about 150% to 200% their normal weight.

Mild disappointment.

Not that I've done a lot of dash pads, but I can remove the one from my Station in 30 minutes. I've done a 3rd Gen Ram in about an hour. To get here took 3-4 hours and it still has the support frame in place.

Nothing a little reverb and other tweaks can't fix.

All of this just because the damn blend door actuator won't calibrate. It acts like the blend door isn't traveling far enough so I tore it down this far just to verify the blend door is in fact offering the full range of travel.

At this point I guess I'll just have to hack it.

There's also the cell2jack device which has already solved the problem.

For fuck's sake.

Funny how the edge of the grill suddenly gives it away. I couldn't place the brand until the last attempt, but still couldn't nail the model.
