Ok question....I need some street cred. Now you Tech dude regulars are regular Tech dudes who on a regular basis throw down good Tech advice.
Ya'll got any code words or tech lingo that I can throw out there?
C12H24 and Joe T kinda look at me like this......


I need to show them I'm a player.....like ForCal

I'll go newbie since I'm venturing into hardcore Tech world.

Thanks in advance

Well, after Scags post, this might be either great timing or poor timing to post this. I had it ready so here it is..... 😂

Blame any electrical fault on the connectors by the spare tire.

If the truck idles high, it’s the auto high idle

Fan sound, it’s hot out

Rim and tire size, leave it for Mike

Wait for 2021s, leave it alone. That’s my thing. 😃

Most questions can be answered with “read the f’ing manual”, “RTFM”, “its in the manual” or “page 456 of the manual”.

Now you scared Bowtie away. 😂

Scags, just follow Jim around and just say the same thing as him but use your own words. You will be rep king in no time.

Jim says one diagnosis, I say another, Jim wins. Story of my FTE experience 😂

LOL..... Teddy giving the Sermon on the FTE Mount and Skags is undoing the whole damned thing......
But, I'm pretty sure Skags has the "smartest guy in the room going incognito" drift. You know the one kind of under dressed for the occasion, maybe shorts & t-shirt in church or flip flops on a Friday night at the upscale steak house. Knows he's getting the side eye from the skinny jeans crowd, hipsters, and posers. Belches loud enough to be heard and maybe even crop dusts the ones with the fancy cropped hair do's on the way to the men's room. Knows he's a man's man with a pocket full of Franklins and a butt-load more where those came from. Shows Wifey maximum, respect in public and gives schmuck in Mini-Cooper evil eye for sitting in car playing on his phone while GF pumps gas. That's how our man rolls.

OMG TEDDY!!!!

I'M PRINTING THIS!!!

BOW!!!! I DO APPRECIATE THE COLORFUL 3D PAINTING OF ME!!!

You never know i might see something in the "want ads" and bail for greener territory job wise. Putting you down as a reference could work out for me..

Now... on my resume.....I'm going to put 90% of what you said down as "personal strengths".

Smartest.....I appreciate that, but might be a tough sell when they give me the alone in the room with a donut don't eat test.....I KNOW I'LL EAT THE DAMN DONUT. EVEN IF THE BOX SAYS.....FRED OR JIMMY OR HOWEVER.

So you might have to go Skype and get up close with reference cover fire.

Speaking of fire....I'll show them I can belch louder than the alarm so as to help save people.

The money thing..... wifes ticked I took out a 3rd mortgage from Slicks Home loans just so I could go to the truck stop and throw down a Franklin for a Rockstar and Skoal. Gotta look redneck cool.

I'M HOME DUDES!!!!! LET'S MOW!!!!!

Can't forget the soon to implode sunroof. Use it, it fails. Don't use it, it fails. If you don't use it, how do you know it's broken?

Jim reminded me of one. Unintended tailgate opening after recall. Fix is to disconnect batteries, take out passenger seat, install ejection seat, shoot wife through broken sunroof and then go to the dealer to repair the botched tailgate recall fix.

Edit. Must reinstall batteries for ejection seat to work.

It's 95% complete. Some of the hydraulics have been backordered so they will pick it up and put them on at a later date. Now, if I could get a build date for my F250...
