Not looking good to fix cab lift before rolling w. Hopefully it’s fine!

~8.5mpg on 219 from the Rex to rolling w and back. Other numbers to come. Finally got a odometer correction, it’s about the same as the speedometer, unsurprisingly.

surprised I didn't note oil change in this thread or on receipts.

just put numbers in. best tank 8.6, worst 7.6 across almost 4000 miles/500 gallons
7.84mpg since the first time I topped it off in April.
I would usually get I think 10.5-11 towing the enclosed with my Ram. Ram lifetime economy at 12.34 through March '18
Between fuel, mods to date, and purchase price, I'm almost surprised at how fast things add up.

What's your method for removing decals?

[mr.mindless]

some heat & peel, the yellow and black come off well that way. The white is really brittle. Today on the white was mostly spray with adhesive remover and scrape with razor. I dropped the razor and broke it, and the fresh blade is now all about carving into the paint. need to dull the new blade on some steel or something.

Line from the ram to the latches rubbed through at the hinge.

PB blaster takes spray paint off if that helps

Had to change a fuel filter in this on my way home last night, made it to the Petro at exit 41 after listing speed and power for the previous 15 or so miles.

Almost had to spend the night there but the second service tech knew how to do better interchange lookup and found a part with 23 in stock. I bought 3.

Then I had some electrical smoke just past 332. Was the cobbled hvac fan. Didn’t pull the dash to investigate. Fan didn’t previously do much anyway so not much loss in function. Have run the fan for hours previously so precipitating change unknown. Obviously not fused when rewired. Maybe motor just failed.

left you a box of my old trailer interior lights on your RAM.  toss them if you dont want them. 

[mr.mindless]

I noticed it when I got home. it stayed put. Thanks, I think those are probably good spare bulbs for existing interior lights if nothing else

[mr.mindless]

I think I’m settled that rad will come out after returning from rolling W race on oct20th. Hopefully enough time to make shipshape for aoaa trip first week of nov.

Please hope for good weather.
