Searches turn up general advice like "use a brush or sponge with warm water and light soap". This seems to be going less than great on my CVT. Is there some technique or magical product that can get rid of these types of mold/mildew stains? Thanks.

Can't remember if I've already shared this here or not. I call this Suddenly Spalad. Dice Spam and fry in a pan. Make Suddenly Salad Ranch & Bacon per box instructions. Mix Spam into the pasta. Enjoy hot or as a cracklicious leftover cold. Just kidding; like there's going to be any leftovers.

I have a Garmin GPS 75 on eBay right now. Google tells me it was released in 1993. It worked last time I turned it on, but I don't have a charger for it. Anyone interested? If so DM me and we'll work something out when the auction comes to an end.

Just got my truck back together after replacing the neutral safety switch and backup light switch in the shifter assembly so I had to go for a drive.

It seems that the other products that I've looked into were not in any way designed for overlanding or any kind of mobility. They look like the "bolt the dish to the top of your building and leave it there forever" types. People of the future will someday wonder what it is and ask how to remove it.

Just wondering if there are any options that provide the same services that Starlink does. Namely, nationwide US coverage at broadband speeds.

That recipe sounds delicious. However, this serving suggestion alone will make anything taste better.

To heap even more options onto your dilemma see gravel bikes. They are kinda a middle point between mountain and road bikes.

I recommend that you rent a few before you make a decision and go ride on terrain that you typically want to ride. Some bike shops will credit you the rental fees you paid to them towards the purchase of a bike. You could rent two different types of bikes for you and your wife to test ride and...

Just did a little test. This is very similar to the NuWave cooker I have. I set it to the lowest wattage of 600W and a Medium setting which the display claims to be 275F. I plugged it into a Kill-A-Watt and at those settings it was pulling ~850W. So, yes. Your advice sounds spot on with what I'm...

Understood. My wife and I took our Hummer onto Vancouver Island years ago and camped our way along 19 up to Campbell River. A few years after that we backpacked the West Coast Trail. Love Vancouver Island. Cheers.

Just wondering who out there is using and induction cooktop? I see Amazon has a deal on the Jackery 1000 right now and it looks like this thing might be able to power a single burner induction stovetop I have. Anyone have experience with such a setup?

Hi, Dave. Just curious if this came together this summer or if plans are still in the works. Cheers from WA.

Thanks, Kent. FWIW I'm also a software developer. I've done a very little bit of mobile app dev, but most of my experience is in backend databases, app/web servers, messaging, networking, etc. Please let me know if there's any way I could help even if its just beta testing new features or...

I rarely ever check the support request thread here on the forums, but would love to help out others who may be nearby and need some help. My question is whether or not the app displays those support notifications. If not, could it be made to do so? Ideally I'd like to be able to select part of...
