    Does anyone use Starlink for home internet?

    I have fiber and Starlink, when fiber goes down I can barely tell the difference. I usually only figure it out when I try to remote in. Mostly use Starlink as a backup. Also have Starlink on Rv roof

    Who introduced you to the Glamis Sand Dunes?

    Girlfriend from high school took me there the first time. Circa 1987 not sure how many times we went together but she was put on the back burner for awhile before she got fired from that position permanently in 1989 or 1990.

    Almost went Nuclear on Amerca's Tire

    This is nothing compared to the tire shop dropping my 3/4 truck off the lift and effing it up. Sucks but at least these are easy repairs that don’t leave a lasting impression

    What Do Folks Do For Road Transportation While at Glamis?

    No it didn’t, had a spare and put the heaviest tires I could put on the trailer a few days later. How is Oregon with length laws? Plan oh heading up there in 2027 and we are at 74 feet or so

    Downsizing truck

    lol I’m not nice, but I have to have restraint as I have a Cdl. I have 19k miles on the car and have less than 20% remaining on 2nd set of tires.

    Downsizing truck

    I bought a 4dr commuter car for better mileage so I don’t have to drive a 4wd diesel dually whenever I go anywhere. Things went sideways in my decision making and the commuter car only gets 14mpg.

    ***Updated****Frontier sucks

    Frontier still goes down, Starlink takes over immediately. When we are on Starlink I lose being able to remote in to my cameras. It was one of the best decisions

    New Shop Plans - Am I missing Anything?

    Not big enough, I started with 50 x 100 added on to make it 50 x 135 . I did all the doors on one side, no cross ventilation and had to add ridge vents across the whole top as well as a big ass fan Rain gutters so water doesn’t run down building and in doors. My building has been in place...

    Sand flinging contest

    2.67 today in the heat, last night and today we either spun tires or unloaded tires on wheelie bar at about the half second mark. Not excessive but we need to evaluate video and data logs and adjust. Making about 45lbs of boost on 2 step
