Some other folks are having the same issues. Dev team responded to a couple app reviews on August 5th that they isolated the issue and are working on a patch.

Yeah that's my bad. I should have clarified further for safety's sake. @Billiebob is correct. Its limited by the factory circuit and is mainly designed for maintaining/topping off a battery. The amperage needed to charge it if it's dead would most certainly overload the circuit. Obviously, that...

An extra note: Tread carefully and consult your manual/service information. Chrysler had a real problem with their Totally Integrated Power Modules (TIPM ie. The main fuse block) burning up and failing. Make sure to double and triple check your setup to ensure you don't exceed the limit of...

That's a big question. I assume your fridge is 115V? First thing we need to know is budget (are you looking for complete systems or diy wiring? Do you plan to integrate solar?) Second is your level of wiring and electrical knowledge?

Just a note, does your truck have a factory 7 way trailer plug? If you do, then you have a factory charging circuit for an aux battery. Red wire I believe (pin 4? Double check) should already be wired to a separate charging relay in the TIPM with a dedicated fuse. Easy peasy to just wire up...

I love the spirit, but chances are that the reduction wouldn't spin it fast enough to excite the field coil, as mentioned above. You could theoretically get the reduction you need through gearing and pulley sizing to get it to charge at trail speed, sure. But it would most likely over spin at...

So Washington has frozen any reopening plans indefinitely at the moment. I don't see any way whatcom or skagit will hit phase 3-4 anytime soon. (With the rate of infection still averaging over 1.0, I'll be surprised if any progress is made sooner than October) @Gabriel Bozeman, are you still...

Many of that generation came with 265/70R16 which is same diameter as stock but slightly wider (larger contact patch). Being a 3/4 ton you'll need LT Rated tires. I'd go up a size to a LT265/75R16 due to how common they are and the good selection available. It adds about an inch or so in...

It's the general lack of pretension. That may seem like such a small thing, but its getting difficult to find. Equal parts encouragement and straight up information. What's not to appreciate?

I assume @leeloo is referencing moisture content in the brake fluid rendering it useless. I just want to add that plastic is not impermeable and if moisture is a significant concern, only purchase DOT 3/4 in metal containers. Most brake fluid packaged in plastic bottles will fail a test...

Octane availability decreases with altitude mostly. Less oxygen means less volatility. Higher elevations in the southwest tend to have 85, 87, 89. You can generally run whatever premium fuel is available in your area, but it becomes an issue when you are traveling long distances and...

I am also a stars person

I also am not as familiar with CA land rights, but I believe Indigenous land is still considered sovereign and private. The federal department that deals with land management has thruway rights to access other land. According to their discussion that means the road is open to the public for rec...

As I've been pondering this one, I'm beginning to realize there is no good answer to the filming question. I do however think that there is a conversation to be had about representation. A large section of the land is owned by the tribes. They allow the road as a thruway. Many will approach this...

First, i don't see a controversy here. The tribes have rights to the land and if they want to close a thru-way then that is their right. We don't have to like it or agree with it, but we need to respect it. Second, any backlash he's receiving is typical internet-reaction stuff. It is not, nor...

Honestly a big fan of that platform and was about to build one into a v8 crawler just before the pandemic hit. Good luck to you on your new adventure and best wishes to you and your nephew.

Short answer, no. For sure, GM v8's love some room to breath. Even a tune on it's own can bump you some power, but adding "bolt on" parts isn't going to make your rig unmanageable. I personally run a stage 2 camshaft and find I have plenty of control over slippage. A word of advice to build...

Statewide burn ban is in effect. https://www.thenewstribune.com/news/state/washington/article244551307.html

So the f150 makes it easy. No A/T dipstick in the traditional sense. You have to pump it from the bottom. In which case, scrap the ATF (good luck adding any on the trail) and take some P/S fluid as you mentioned. Always keep oil on hand if you have the 5.4. Too many issues with oiling and...

Leave out the P/S fluid as you can use atf in almost anything besides European and electro-hydraulic systems (haven't looked at the rig you're using). Some gear oil is handy if you peel a diff cover back (or worse). Bottle of Bars coolant stop leak is worth having if your radiator cracks (could...
