some texas redneck posted:Your owner's manual will tell you what you can and cannot pull. Probably the sticker on the drivers door jamb as well (it may be on the door itself, but near the physical latch). Keep in mind that U-Haul has their own guidelines about what vehicle they will rent to; they don't just go by towing ratings. I plugged a 2015 Chrysler 200 into the uhaul website, and it said they would rent up to a 6'x12', although you'd be better off with a smaller one. It also depends on what weight your hitch is rated to. Biodome, I suggest you plug your car into their thing (I don't know what year and drivetrain you have) and it'll tell you what they'll let you rent.

blk posted:The contractor I hired to refinish the floors on the place I just bought is 10 days late and loving up my entire move in (and move out of rental schedule). I want to be done with him but it looks like I may be taking him to small claims sometime soon. Nobody wins. Sounds like he's got one with front end damage, and one with rear end damage. Make one good car, and then turn the "bad halves" resultant car into a lemons car

What, you installed an untested new OS without taking a disk image first?  Out of curiosity, what did you hate about Win10? It seems like a pretty solid improvement over 8.1 to me. Not sure yet if I like it better than win7, though. Pham Nuwen posted:install gentoo See me after class!

Geirskogul posted:Agree with MustardFacial. If you want to think about how absurd game pre-ordering is (especially, but not solely, in this digital era), replace "game" with "box of cereal." It just wouldn't make sense - you'd want to taste the cereal first, or at least hear about how friends liked it, before you bought it. Yo that's a C10. I don't think they had 1/4T pickups in the 70s, anyway.

meatpimp posted:drat, I forgot about that... I've got a cutter for regular-to-micro... I should have just grabbed a cutter for micro-to-nano. I'll try cutting mine down, though. Thanks for the reminder! My current SIM started out as a mini-SIM, then I cut it down to a micro-SIM for my iPhone4, then again to nano-SIM for the 5s. Each time just with scissors. Works out fine. There are cutting templates on the internet, if you don't have a real nano to compare against. Coredump posted:I don't have big hands at all and you are so wrong. Holding a 4s after having my 6+ for a year is a shock. I've literally said "how did I use this tiny thing?" The 4s feels like baby's first phone. The 6+ however has made my tablet start gathering dust. I do have big hands, and I think my 4 was the perfect size. I've gotten used to the 5s, but I don't think it's ideal. I've played with a 6, and while it's usable, it's ungainly. Not comfortable to use long term, although I could make it work. The 6+ is just too loving big, though.

some texas redneck posted:Kind of rambling here, but I just realized N5's with broken screens are going for less than $100 on both Amazon and eBay. If I can verify they have clean ESNs, it's tempting to snag one and just swap the motherboard over, since the power button is soldered to the board. I know it's an issue that'll eventually return, but I'm not scared of swapping the motherboard (and I already want to throw this ZTE piece of poo poo through the wall). I had it out when I replaced the battery (didn't have to come out, just wanted to see how easy it came out), so I'm not scared of swapping it. Only worried about getting one with a blacklisted ESN, since the IMEI/ESN follows the board. Send your old phone to TT to get soldermonkey'd for cheap?

Tommychu posted:Fuuuck. Rear knock sensor in beatertruck ('00 GMC 4.8) is not removable- the hex just went crunch and started spinning. There's too much mud and crap around to safely pull the valley pan, there's not really enough room to get any fun extraction tools in there, Google says I have to hammer and chisel it out fuel-sender-lock-ring-style but I'm not sure the stud is going to take much of that. Anyone know a trick for these? The knock sensors thread into a boss in the block, not the valley pan, anyway. You'd have to destroy the valley pan to get it off with a knock sensor in place. So yeah, destroying the knock sensor sounds like a better plan.

 I guess some people are just hard on their things.My Ford needed a rebuilt engine after 20 years, and has gone another 35. In that time it's needed new brushes for the generator, wheel bearings, a couple water pumps, a carb kit, wheel cylinders, clutch master, and somehow it chewed up the diff ring gear like 15 years ago. To me, that's all expected maintenance stuff, except the ring gear. My dad's Ford is only 11 years old, but it's been trouble free except for the fuel pump that went out a couple years ago. I think the Fords have been the most reliable vehicles we have had. The interior of the Honda that's only a year older than my dad's Ford is falling apart; all the plastic is getting fragile.

Elmnt80 posted:the name for the fuel injection system you'd find on late 90's S-10s was central fuel injection instead of TBI like everyone I know calls it Did the V6 vortecs not have the weird central spider injection system like the V8 vortecs? 'Cause that's a different thing than TBI.

Elmnt80 posted:I dunno, I know the system they were describing was the one where you have what basically appears to be a carb sitting on a intake manifold which is the same poo poo my dad had on his S-10, thus me pointing it out. They called it central fuel injection, everyone I've seen refers to it as throttle body injection, its possible we're all wrong though. All I know is its dumb and I want to get a 5.3 to stick in my dad's S-10 instead of his 250k mile 4.3. It doesn't matter where the throttle plate is, it matters where the fuel injectors are. TBI has the injectors in the throttle body, like a carburetor would. Central fuel injection has plastic lines going down each runner with poppet valves. They also have a throttle body on the top of the manifold, but it's just a throttle body, no fuel like a TBI throttle body would have. TBI:  Spider poo poo:

Elmnt80 posted:Yeah, thinking back the 4.3 I'm thinking of would have been spider, which has the proper name of central fuel injection, so I guess the question was right. I'm still right about the optima question being wrong since the training materials optima give us say to only use a trickle charger and that they are glass mat batteries. Oh yeah, Optimas are totally AGM. I don't think an alternator counts as a trickle charger, but I suppose you should still be careful with them to maintain warranty or whatever.
