I’m taking my online tech test on the 26th. Can update with my experience if you’d like.

21 years in 911. Started as FF/EMT with CDF, then 10 years as a paramedic on a 911 ambulance and for last 7 years a fire engineer with a city department, still a medic, and also a Fireine Medic for wildland fires. Most important thing is being able to recognize big sick vs little sick and be...

We just recently got a drone and are still learning how to use it. Curious as to why they are not allowed in national parks. Is it for fear of overcrowding or a nuisance?

I've been in EMS for 20 years now, 10 years as a paramedic on an ambulance and 10 years on a fire engine. I have a small backpack that lives clipped to the back of my drivers seat. Bleeding control is crucial. I carry a CAT tourniquet, Combat Gauze, which has a hemostatic agent in it for packing...

Awesome, thanks! Any concerns about welding to the frame? I keep hearing its ok and that's its a serious no-no.

Thats a pretty cool set-up! an you share more info/pics of you did that? I've got a 3.5 EB F150 and a front winch is just not an option as I am not in the realm of moving my intercooler at this point. Thanks!

I just use the Harbor Freight one. Does well enough. Just gotta have it running before you hook up to tire or it can blow the fuse.

I work for a fire department in a city in CA. We have alot of electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles. I have yet to go to a vehicle fire involving an electric vehicle. Yes they do happen and when they do they need ALOT of water to extinguish but in my experience the risk is really not that great...

This guy has a few videos. I know one of them has been posted before. I'd rather have this than the Tron truck above Tesla powered F450 Walk-Around & Controller/Motor operation - YouTube

Your posts always leave me slack jawed. There is never constructive dialogue. I do not know why I bother. Last thread of similar nature you commented that your reply to my post about California and small engines was meant to be insulting. Why? Once again, your commentary makes me want to shut...

Sounds like a great rig! Just FYI my Redarc 1225 controller charges my aux battery while driving and uses solar when I'm parked. No issues for over a year and no codes thrown.

Well I’ll feel fine as it would not get to that point. Measures are being taken to lower the price by releasing reserves, pressuring OPEC to increase supply, etc. There is already legislation in process to inhibit price gouging on fuel as well as other basic necessities. If fuel to begin to...

I use GasBuddy and try to report the prices to keep the app updated.

But to back out of politics I am finding myself walking more to places I would of typically driven. I recently had my Overland rig/DD out of service in my driveway while waiting for a part. I walked the 2 miles to the shopping center I needed to go to for groceries (beer). I plan on just walking...

Do we ignore the fact that oil revenues have gone waaaaay up since last year? Exxon-57%, chevron-84%, shell-49%, BP-45%, How about the 440 billion in government subsidies the oil companies have taken? How about the 9100 active drilling permits that are not being used? How about that 90% on US...

I've got a 2016. 3.5L EB Supercrew. Bilstein 6112 up front, SPC upper control arms, Bilstein 5160 in the rear gives me 2" lift. Nitto Ridge Grappleres 35x12.5x17. Front rear offroad bumpers, Softopper, Extrusion Overland bed rack, DECKED system, ICECO fridge in bed, 100AH Renogy AGM aux battery...

Thank you!

Beautiful rig!

For us who do not an extensive mechanical background can anyone offer some tips and what to look for if we'd like to check this at home? I do not want to be taking a similar photo some day.

Thank you! Jeez I LOVE this forum!
