    NSFW Funny Pics and MEMES Thread - no nudity - PICS AND MEMES ONLY

    The United States of America is not a democracy - that's probably where people get confused. The voters don't directly elect the president. The president is elected by members of the electoral college. And even at that, the candidates are put up by parties (not voters). The Democratic party...

    FINALLY found my truck's towing and payload capacities!

    No, I think it's the base payload capacity (with no options). I looked up a couple of TRX's and they all have the same mpi_max_payload as mine (regardless of the options added). So that would make the difference between "mpi_max_payload" and "max_payload" equivalent to the weight of all your...

    FINALLY found my truck's towing and payload capacities!

    Yeah, I see it. Towing is never there. I thought you were saying it didn't mention payload. Edit: And for what it's worth, you don't even need to know your max towing capacity. You'll (almost) always hit payload capacity (due to the tongue weight) before you hit pulling capacity.

    Amp steps are much lower (here's what mine look like). Not sure what brand the OP has, though.

    Nit Picking Observation

    The big black one with a wire looks like the lighting for the retracting steps. Can't tell what the small black things are - would need a closer picture. They're not slots, right?

    I’m pretty sure it’s required by law. Can you post a picture?

    Nit Picking Observation

    There's a lot to unpack here. Let's break it down. There's a recall for the rearview camera - take it to a dealer to have it addressed (if it's not addressed by a firmware update). Take off the tag and buy some bumper plugs. Contact @Acogs91 (here's a post with his info)...

    FINALLY found my truck's towing and payload capacities!

    Yeah, the only problem is those are generic capacities for a truck with zero options. Depending on what trim you have (and what options are included on your trim), your capacities will vary from "a little less" to "a lot less" than what's shown on the brochure. As @Pribilof mentioned, your...

    Maybe you can’t see it, but your response above has all sorts of gobbledygook. It is some kind of tapatalk problem as I understand it.

    New icon appeared. Shopping, games, geocaching

    I gave it a shot earlier. I had no notices, but hit “clear all” anyways. Didn’t make a difference. Still have the stupid icon.

    Rho mpg

    The best part about the analysis is that the numbers get better as the mileage gets worse. I get more like 10 mpg in my TRX. 702/10 = 70.2 Hp/mpg That’s even more efficient!

    It was candy cigarette, no worries Edit: how many of y’all remember buying candy cigarettes as kids? I could only imagine the uproar nowadays if those were to reappear.

    Rho mpg

    Funny thing is, if you want pure power (and don’t give a hoot about mpg), then you’re not buying a RHO. But with that said, here are the calculations on the never-before-heard-of horsepower to mpg ratio: 5.7L Hemi (assuming 16 mpg): 395/16 = 24.68 Hp/mpg 3.0 Hurricane HO (using 15 mpg)...

    Rho mpg

    37% more horsepower for a 1 mpg hit - seems like a decent trade off to me.

    Welding advice

    Oxy/acetylene. Then regular old electric arc. Then the newer wire feeds.
