I didn't spend much time in the clean stage of construction. More in early stages if building areas, more in road, pipeline, and forestry work. And yes, we bounced around in mud and ruts more often than not.

So you don't visit real construction sites, ok.

What makes a pickup a "fleet pickup"? I've always pictured "fleet" as a multi-vehicle purchase by one customer. Another local has (2) F150s and (2) F250s on the lot (or in transit to lot). After checking, if someone really wants a single cab, anyone can order, no "fleet" required. After...

It seems everything is based on "financial decision" to you. Sorry to see the $ thing is everything to some. Wow.

I know many that drive pickups; only 1 that drives a pickup for image. Badest ass pickup I've seen; he's a Navy SEAL. Which is not surprising since a Prius kinda sucks on muddy construction sites. You are so outta touch with reality. I just checked one local dealer. Pretty sure that is an 8'...

I have lived in 4 different "cities" over the last 50 years. The biggest was 68k. Currently in a city of 42k. Not a good comparison to LA, or Chicago. As far as "lifestyle" goes, there are many more trucks towing recrational and construction trailers in a typical city than Ag trailers in the...

Nice. I agree that is what Mr. C probably thinks. Would need to clarify what the "kid" he is referring to actually is. My definition of kid is not old enough to have the family/house responsibilities. In my area, I don't see F350s unless they are owned as work horses and tow regularly...

In an effort to get this back on topic, who is more likely to be EV friendly in 2028: Vance or Rubio?

Why is that hilarious? Do you actually hear a lot of discussions involving kids and toast? Venn Diagram: 1) people that drive F350 and tow boat twice a year. 2) people that talk about kids eating avocado toast. 3) those people in 2 that complain about it. Please, continue entertaining!

His preference is SuperChargers; I think they typically take 30 - 45 minutes. He got there earlier than anticipated and started charging. A sit-down dinner/visit of an hour is not real long.

I agree, it is fine for some. Not for us. We used to often travel with my brother; still do when he takes the van. Otherwise now meet him at a final destination. A 4 minute fuel stop for the Ascent once or twice a month isn't tremendously inconvenient. My brother was passing through the...

I'm happy for you.

Kinda missed the point that if one is on a road trip one needs to stop to charge. Based on one data point (my brother) on a similar length trip, he stops more often than I do and spends much more time charging. Does nobody travel? Feel sorry for you folks.

Not when you are on a road trip over 500 miles. We stopped to fuel the Ascent today. For fun, I timed my wife fueling. Started timer when the car was shut off, she hadn't put her glove on while I drove so that took time. Total time from shut off to restart: 3 min 11 seconds; she didn't know...

"We" is strictly my wife and I. We travel a lot.

I find it adorable when people write things like this. Perhaps they should think before blindly copy/paste from whichever talking point website they use. Curious, where do you live that has capacitive highway charging so an EV doesn't need to stop to charge? Less than 10% of the miles we...

Circles are for limited use where 4 or 5 roads come together. I suppose close your eyes and pedal like an SOB at the entrance on a bike.

Used for smaller trees on the ground; easier on cutters back. I think this one is missing a guard. https://arboristsite.com/threads/bow-bar-what-is-the-purpose-of-a-bar-like-this.23048/

Sounds like a "study" problem for permits. Shouldn't be allowed to build where it won't/can't be used.

One of the handful of useful opinions on this string.
