My steering wheel heater and seat heater works awesome in my 2015 Ford. TO the point I have to turn it them off (or the seat heater down) after 15 minutes. They work well in the leather seats n my VOlt as well.

I do notice that the colder it is out, the better it seems to work. Probably because they are getting much hotter faster than the air temperature is.

Roy - If the president declares marshall law to prolong the presidency and become a dictator, I don't think he is going to have enough people behind him to make it a civil war. I hope I don't eat those words later.

Ohh just found out they are shipping your boat to you. Supposed to get it next week, which means it will arrive in January 2021.

Nice try.......it is custom built....You have to go to Bristol RI to help with the design ......... Anyone have $400,000 to give me.........

k7lvo, welcome to the one page thread, but we are not all here to just bash politics.


Darren, any developments in the steering box? Did you get a chance to get some stop leak in there? Where are you filling yours? I haven't looked at mine lately, but I recall it being a sealed unit.


Yes, I know oh great Master.........

Howdy boys! I was lazy until 8:00 this morning, then I've been making up for it since. I managed to get a lot done around the house that nobody would even notice but me, but it was stuff that's been bugging me for a while and now I feel better. The weather sucks today anyway, so there was nothing better to do than to work inside the house and garage.

Darren, thanks for posting the link to Gavin's project. That thing is AWESOME! I wish I had half of his talent, tools, shop space and patience. Instead, I MAY have a tenth. Maybe you should have him rebuild your PS gearbox.

Andre, glad you put that little reminder out there about the rules. It would suck to have the thread closed over something like this. I guess we all feel a little passionately about certain things and it's easy to get a little wound up when discussing them sometimes. I also agree with Roy.

Monty, even in the rain and sleet, I'm sure camping will still be great. Granted, sunny shies would be better, but being away from the hustle and bustle is always nice.

I bottled cider experiment #2 this morning. I'll see how it turned out in 14 days or when my diet ends - whichever is last. If the bottles don't explode, I expect it will be very good. It will at least be VERY different from the first batch, which I wasn't happy with.

Howdy Mitch, Dak, Gerry, Roy, Steve, Brett, K7lvo (we need a name) and Other Steve. Y'all have a good one!

A day camping in snow sleet and rain is better than a week at home doing chores - enjoy Monty. I know nothing about ambulances except that I used to volunteer on one years ago.

I figured this thread was kinda like "coffee break."

The name is Lewis.

I don't know how I skipped over setting up my signature. Fixed now, though...
