We bought this Prime Rib in anticipation of Christmas, but it didn;t get used so it's been taking up a bit of freezer space. So today it spent a few hours on the Weber. It takes a long time to cook 13 lbs of Prime Rib!

But 2500s did. Go figure. https://notthebee.com/article/study-shows-the-cars-most-likely-to-be-ticketed-for-a-dui-and-one-car-is-twice-as-likely-as-the-national-average

I'm still waiting for more than light rain and stifling humidity, but I took advantage of it anyway and washed my truck. All those dried bugs just wiped off after soaking for six or eight hours. And there were no fears about it drying before I could rinse. And I get a soft-water rinse out of it...

This ad for Decked just came across my facebook feed. They're using an American flag as a seat cushion! It's against the flag code and it's really disrespectful.

Today I upgraded to an H8 AGM battery. But before I did that, I did my research and ordered a new battery blanket. Part 5033397AE is in fact the correct size for anyone who plans to do this in the future. Note: I had jumper cables hooked from an engine bolt and a lug on the underhood fuse...

Yesterday the wife and I drove up to Mt Wilson to take the observatory tour. Last one for the year. Anyway, the gate to the observatory parking lot doesn't open until 10. We were early, so we pulled over and parked maybe 100 yards away from one of the many TV and radio antennas up there. We...

I took a trip from my home in the Los Angeles area to San Jose. Due to morning commute traffic and road construction on the 210 Freeway, I only managed to cover 30 miles the first hour. Then speeds picked up. Trip up 345.7 miles, 21.7mpg, 5:06:23 showing on the trip odometer. So average speed...

Perfect for those who really love their truck. https://geckocustom.com/products/888386-dth-upload-car-photo-hawaiian-shirt-hn590

Are they as bright as the videos show, and how long does the glow last? https://bestgadget.today/products/fluorescent-tire-valve-caps

Here's the backstory: The wife and I headed for the hills to go camping Sunday night. I ran over something because the tire warning came on and showed that I had two flats, both rights. We were in the middle of nowhere up on Angeles Crest Highway, so I limped on as far as I dared hoping to find...

Westin's office isn't far from my house and sometimes I go by on my morning walks. There's frequently a Wrangler parked out front, but today I spotted this Rebel.

I have one of those 12V refrigerators and I'd like to be able to plug it in in the bed. I gave thought to running a dedicated line from the fuse block back into the bed and finishing it with a 12V plug or some Anderson powerpoles. But who wants to string heavy wires the length of the truck...

I dropped enough hints and got these Carhartt seat covers for Christmas. Since the interior is black and grey, I got the grey covers. They smelled like dye so I washed and dried them. Today I vacuumed things really good and installed the covers. Installation is pretty straight forward. They...

Yesterday I was out running some errands and I went to travel link to look at the weather map. It was taking forever to load - not uncommon - and I parked and shut the truck off before it finished. When I got back in and started the truck, the uconnect apps page was displaying. Huh. Oh, well...

It was the first time I'd really gotten a good look up close. To me it looked like a Scion xB or a Ford Edge, with the fenders hogged out and some oversize tires.

I saw it online and knew I could do it myself. The empty broth container was handy. I suppose a juice box would work too. Originally I thought about using a length of raingutter downspout, but this cheaper. And lighter weight!
