    Good Gas Mileage Hunting Vehicle

    Thankfully, one more new (or newish) gasser should deliver me to Valhalla. I'll see if they have charging stations and try and let y'all know. The resource you'll be worried about as the end gets closer won't be gas or electricity. Good luck with it all.

    Cimarron pole options?

    May have been mine. I watched the destruction from a distance. It didn't snap--more exploded. And, it was not just "wind". I can assure you the REI pole would have fared no better--I have it as well.

    Base layer guidance needed

    Brynje base layers. I use Buffalo Systems for the most part over that. Exactly what of either depends on the weather that day. I'm in the SE and it can be 75 one day and freezing the next, with high humidity on both, or on neither.

    But you're trying to apply logic to what has been created as/turned into a highly illogical situation. Where I live, I couldn't even tell you the last time I saw a new car with no AC. Maybe they don't offer them without AC anywhere now--dunno, as it's been over 25 years since I bought a car...

    Yuhp--and old JoePa put us right back into NEPA reviews the Trumpster had throttled down and his EPA just announced crazy new stuff with the CWA and permits. It'll take years to even review permits on virtually any project of significance. Meanwhile, the rest of the highly populated world...

    Well thank God JoePa used the Defense Act to force panel production to charge a bunch of EVs. I can sleep better tonite.

    Mercedes-Benz says it will go all-electric by 2030, but with conditions. The German automaker says it will only sell electric vehicles “where market conditions allow”. They'll start by being electric only with all new vehicles in 2025. We'll see bout that. I think the Secret Service already...

    Everybody needs tow hooks and a Wyeth-Scott Amsteel Power Puller It's a come along on steroids. Get a snatch block and you aren't likely to get a compact so stuck it won't extract it. Heck you prolly won't even need a snatch to get it out.

    Not around my house. Have to shoot em out. Well, no one told JoePa, I guess. Course he rides in a limo that get 3-4 or flies a helo to his jet.

    Good Gas Mileage Hunting Vehicle

    Why are there not generators attached at each wheel? We used to have lights on our bikes powered by the wheels turning. Regenerative braking used to be mentioned with early EVs, as I recall. Wheel based generators surely wouldn't solve the charge issue, but it ought to help.

    What happened to the hybrid concept? Logical stepping stone to "someday" having all EVs. JoePa opens his piehole about EVs and everybody seems to have jumped direct to "all EV" and accomplished before some time that is laughable to commit to.

    Client of mine who's a big car guy drives one as a daily. He's pretty pleased with it for what it is. Doesn't live in snow country tho.

    Cimarron questions

    You need to get them a Bai bottle or similar (my favorite now is a Planter's peanut jar). Once I get in, I don't come out until next morning. Otherwise, I'd spend more time out of my bag than in it.

    Cimarron questions

    Broken one was a 710. The other was a step or two up size wise but I don't see any info in my emails of exactly which size it was. The 710, I'm sure, would have been fine for all normal uses. I watched the shelter self destruct from a couple miles away. If the pole hadn't broken, the shelter...

    Cimarron questions

    I have them for mine. First outing a micro downburst shattered the bottom section of the pole and also did some damage to the Cimarron. Freak weather event and not the fault of the equipment. Sent pole back to Ruta and he fixed it and I had an "overbuilt" model made too. He makes good stuff...

    Muzzle brake - worth it?

    If they were meaningful to me, I guess I'd feel differently.

    Hunting: “a dying sport”?

    Wish the timeframe here was the same as the Peloton cycle.
