Pizza again. Thick, light, fluffy.....like a focaccia. Fresh tomato, basil, and cheese.

This is what the FORScan screen looks like in my minivan.

Looks like you are flying a plane instead of driving a van.

You get that from ForScan, or is that some other app that reads the engine parameters through the OBD-2 adapter?

Forscan does a lot more than I use it for.

I could use one of those on my LG ice maker 5150, who needs a windshield calibration

I'm an open minded guy. But if Wendy Williams gets Covid, I won't miss much.

I have Forscan, but I didn't know it provided those gauges.

Stewart, I doubt I will take the two wheel drive Ranger to Pismo, but that would be cool to replace the Bronco pic with a flying Ranger pic.

Allegedly, FORScan does a lot of things that used to require a visit to the dealership. And there are suppose to be things like overriding the factory settings. I don't know. I haven't played with it to that extent. I believe that it's a work in progress. As it's in constant development. I wonder if there's an update option, or if you have to delete it, then download the latest version.

What kind of action shots can you get with the Ranger? With an F-150 and a Transit Connect in San Francisco, the only action here is pulling up to the valet parking in front of a restaurant, and handing the keys to a valet.

I fear the day that I will need a computer to live in my own house. We are actually there. Smart devices. Ovens you can program to turn on and off remotely. Cell phone operated security systems. I blame it all on the VCR. The VCR started it all. With the feature to record TV when you're not even home to hit the record button. And it did it all without the TV on. While mine kept flashing 12:00.

Ooof - don't be like me and visit craigslist late at night. Stumbled across a dude who screwed up and bought the wrong length bed (bought long, needed short) for his F100 - that's after he fixed and prepped it for paint...now he is trying to flip a paint ready bed minus the tailgate for $1400! If only the timing was right, I'd be all over that :\

Just made a crab salad. Nothing really exciting.

If you have an immersion blender, it works really well for making the mayo/dressing. I make mine with olive oil and crushed garlic.
